tiller disc or other and more!!!!

[DougInSpokane]

Hello all! I want to till or re-fresh a very old dryland pasture. I can buy a disc or attempt to use a 48" cultivator (4+ acres ewhhhh!!!). Other ideas?

I live in a upland dry area avg 18-23 inches a year in mostly snow. So this will occur just before the fall rains hit. So the question is around what attachment is best suited to get this pasture up to speed for goats and cows.

Ideas or suggestions? If I buy the disc, I bet I use it 2-3 times in the next 10 years. But how else to break up the current crepe soil/grass?

Thanks in advance!

My choice would be the cultivator. It will work the ground up better in a single pass than the disc will (your soil mileage may vary!). I have clay-loam and discing only really works after plowing or field cultivating.

If you would use the disc for other chores year round, buy the disc and use them both.
