Tiller Nardi Rototiller Question

[Erik Graham]

Greetings;

I am looking into purchasing a Nardi Rototiller-58" for use with 30 hp 4wd tractor. One of the ads I looked at suggests that the tiller is available with either "C" or "L" tines. I can image what the shape of the tines would be but not clear on the use or advantage of one over the other might be. Primary use would be on pasture that has been plowed, with a mind to create a market garden. Any advice or insights greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Erik

all depends on your soil and how well it allows hacking and wacking at it.


The C tine is a slasher tine with a narrow slashing width and the L tines cut and shred a wider portion breaking more ground area with fewer tines
which consumes more power please read below tomake your life easier- it will also allow you to make use of a soil bedder/plastic layer with much less work to keep weeds out.

If it were me:

I would buy a modern brand one bottom plow and replace the plow share with the weiss industries 14 inch deep replacement plow share
(deep conservation tillage) which will suck down to 14 inches and the moldboard has very little resistance in the soil as it has a narrow cut angle which allows it to zip through the ground. This eliminates all the hardpan everytime every year and the landpride RTR will be an even better tiller with the Weiss deep conservation plowshare and the Duragrade A1 rock picker



the land pride RTR rear tine rotation tiller will be a better tiller as it will suck itself into the ground and stay there and you could use the A1 rock picker offered by www.duragrade.com to pull al the rocks after you till with very little hand labor.
