#1: INVESTIGATE YOUR TOPSOIL

Before you purchase tillage tools, you should take the time to understand a bit more about your topsoil. Depending on your location and the season, your topsoil may be a bit different from that of other farmers, so it’s important to get a good feel for what you’re working with.

Identify the general thickness of your topsoil. Is it fairly thin? That probably means that your moisture levels are drier overall. Maybe you’re working with a thick, moist topsoil, in which case you’ll want to use tillage tools that only penetrate a few inches into the soil.

#2: EVALUATE YOUR CURRENT OPERATING COSTS

When determining the types of tillage tools that may work well on your farm, you should take a look at your current cost of operations. This includes things such as fuel, seed, fertilizer, chemical costs, etc.

The goal of tillage tools is to help reduce these costs, so you should aim to choose those that make your processes more efficient. You’ll also want to factor in how to maintain crop-producing abilities for your specific field in the long-term.

#3: UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF TILLAGE

There are many different types of tillage, with some making more sense for your farm than others. Before you shop for tools, it’s important to first determine which tillage method you’ll be using on your farm. Among other factors, the two points we previously mentioned are important to consider when making this decision.

Will you opt for deep tillage, subsoiling, secondary tillage, or some other type of tillage? It’s important to do your research and weigh the pros and cons of each type of tillage to better understand which one makes the most sense for your needs.

#4: COST

As a farmer, you’re looking to cut costs anywhere it’s possible. You’re already responsible for loads of expensive machinery and livestock, so when searching for the tillage tools that are right for you, it only makes sense to opt for something affordable. However, in doing so, you want to make sure that you’re never compromising on quality. Cheap tools can seem great, but keep in mind that you get what you pay for.

Instead, we recommend doing some research online and getting a gauge of what fair prices are for each type of tool and going from there.
