Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a tillage conservation plow (100) for plowing the earth and exposing, on the surface of the earth, weeds and past harvest residue. The plow includes a hitch frame (1) and a framework (2) connected to the hitch frame. A support (10) is connected to the framework. The support is operable to allow the earth to pass unturned. A blade (4) is connected to the moldboard support. The support, in combination with the blade, is operable to place the weeds and past harvest residue on the surface of the earth without turning over the soil.

Abstract: A conservation tillage implement including a shredder with a transverse rotor hood structure having one-piece end panels which are welded to each side of the hood and project rearwardly of the hood to receive a toolbar which extends the width of the implement. The center of the toolbar is connected to a pair of parallel upright central panels which are connected to the central rear portion of the hood. A reinforcing member extends from the central rear portion between the central panels around the top of the hood adjacent the hitch structure which connects the implement to a tractor. The end and central panels and reinforced hood structure define a compact, unobtrusive frame which is sturdy enough to pull heavy drawbar loads and resist heavy torque loading. In one embodiment of the invention, the toolbar supports a plurality of transversely adjustable deep tillage tools such as rippers, and disk structure is connected by adjustable bracket structure to the toolbar behind the rippers.

Abstract: A moldboard plow with a bidirectional moldboard which includes a moldboard frame that can turn by use of a reversal mechanism which also serves as a tilting mechanism. Included is a hitching frame which has a central pole and hitching plates, a moldboard frame having a guide member extending along the longitudinal axis thereof, a set of bidirectional moldboards fastened to the hitching frame by a pivot pin for reversal of the plow so that the bidirectional moldboards cuts into the soil on a right and left side of the plow, a tilting mechanism for tilting said hitching frame and a reversing mechanism connected to the guide member of the moldboard frame for moving the moldboard frame and the set of bidirectional moldboards to the right side and left side of the plow.
