I have a 5 acre field that I used to lease out to a tenant, and he left it in pretty bad shape, lots of gullies, ruts, berms, black plastic everywhere. Does anyone have a suggestion about how to level it, so I can row crop it afterwards? Should I just rent a tandem disc (I have a 50 HP Kubota), or should I ask one of my neighbors if they will rip it down to 12"or so, then disc it afterwards? Also, its been pretty dry in CA lately - would it make sense to wait for more soil moisture (like, in the fall, when it rains) to try to level the field? I understand that I shouldn't work the ground when its too wet, but right now it seems hard as cement, and very dusty. Anyways, all suggestions are much appreciated - thanks.
