L a For Built In Stren Versatile tillage tools such as Billion’s Soil Commander allows the use of Chisel Shanks or Deep-npper Shanks to break up soil compaction. Front disk gangs and optional rear leveling disks cut residue, breaks clods, level the field and prepare the field to absorb moisture from melting snow and to reduce soil erosion. Brillion’s Field Commander combined with a Brllllon Pulverizer excels at creating the perfect seedbed for spnng planting. C-Shanks or S-Tine Shanks leave a uniform mixture of soil and surface residue for the most effecient chemical incorporation. The X-Fold Pulverizer (shown below) breaks up clods, firms the soil without compacting, eliminates air pockets in the soil and levels the soil for optimal seed placement For less time in the field and better yields, go Bnlllion , I Pennsylvania I Ij^AMSTOWN Adamstown Equip.
