Auto-Reset System, Rear
BRILLION, Wis. Working
up compacted fields or fields with
heavy residue is easier and more
efficient with Brillion’s improved
Landcommander. A new, auto-re
set system helps keep shanks in
the ground, providing more uni

“The Landcommander is the
ideal tool for spring or fall tillage,
giving users total command over
problems of compaction, soil ero

safely due to a distinctive fadeaway splash shield. Should

Agriculture Needs To Remain Vigilant
WASHINGTON, D.C.
While the budget bill being con
sidered by the Senate is a victory
for agriculture, farmers and their
representataives must remain
active and vigilant during the
decisive conference committee
action on the bill.
“Agriculture won an important
victory in round two of the budget
debate.” said TFI President Gary
D. Myers. “The deletion of the
BTU tax and the barge tax from
the Senate bill makes it a fairer bill
for agriculture than the House
version.”
Myers said agricultural inter
ests were successful in the Senate
because virtually all of the diverse
ag groups were able to agree on a
goal and strategy and work
together. Twenty-three agriculture
organizations signed a letter to
Finance Committee Chairman
Patrick Moynihan opposing the
BTU and barge taxes.
However, said Myers, the ulti

Disc Spacing Provide Uniform Tillage
15-inch spacing of the discs match_
a variety of tillage practices and
ground conditions. Close spacing
in spring, for example, helps cre
ate a firm, level seedbed. The disc
gang can also be raised to leave re
sidue on the surface and reduce
soil erosion.”
Irish says the front disc gang of
the Landcommander features ad
justable working depths and cut
ting angles. The discs, spaced IS
inches apart, cut through the resi
due and allow trash to flow
through the machine. A 39-inch
underframe clearance allows the
Landcommander to work heavy
residue without plugging.
The Landcommander is avail
able in 18 models with three to
nine shank models and 24- to
30-inch spacings.
