RECEIPTS FOR THE DIRECT HOG FARMING FOR THE FUTURE with Model AWIIBQ—44BO c/w transporter A pulling corn planter on one pass. Most of my farm is on rolling ground that is highly credible. 1 was losing 100 much soil. This made it necessary for me to look at alternative tillage practices. I found the Aer-Way to be an excellent tool for tilling the soil and relieving compaction while main taining maximum residue cover for protection from wind and rain. The Aer-Way works great with my legume cover crop system. The tool can be adjusted to till the soil without destroying the established growth that pro vides protection for wintering, while it opens the soil to allow the water to soak in. On corn, I use the roller working angle at ettner 7V4 or 10 On my com ground, I Aer-Way in the fall to panially incorporate the stalks. This helps to hold the soil and water on my hillsides and speeds up the rot-down of the residue. The Aer-Way only uses DAIRYMEN, RANCHERS & CASH CROPPERS... IT’S TIME TO ORDER YOUR A NEW AER-WAY THIS SPRING CAN BE YOUR TICKET TO INCREASED PROFITS THIS FALL.
