What if I told you that you didn't have to do anything different than what you had been doing and get up to 19 bushel an acre corn yields, but do it faster and with less fuel consumption?  

You say I am not a corn farmer, what does this have to do with me? Well with the same lack of effort you can improve your soil quality and not have to add anything.

The only thing you have to do is purchase a new high-quality tool to replace your old worn out chisel plow or soil savor. With a new FarmBuilt Chisel Ripper which includes a lifetime warranty parts from Bellota Agrisolutions. The Chisel Ripper is one of the very few purchases that you will make that will actually pay for itself in serious yield increases.

What is easier than that? 

... and the Chisel Ripper.

Over the years when looking for the short-term benefits of the Chisel Ripper to soybeans one of the most obvious benefits has been the lack of sudden death in beans. I attribute this to compaction reduction. You notice this problem on the headland, which you do not see when you use the Chisel Ripper. This supports my theory because this is where you will get the highest compaction from turning.  This year our fields, for the most part, have matured enough that the yields will not be hurt by sudden death. That said we did notice that on one nearby field which we know to was highly compacted that the crop appears to be suffering at a near to 20% damage rate. In todays tight profit margins, you can't afford to lose any yields, especially those which can be easily rectified.  

If you want to increase your yields, use our Chisel Ripper to make sure you get every cent out of every acre!

At last, my Chisel Ripper CR 5.0 is on its way to where it belongs. First in front of the public eye and then on your farm. It may be small in size but what it can accomplish makes up for what it lacks in stature. It is a pint-sized dynamo. If you think about it, if you are covering the same area as a four bottom 18" plow. Around here it takes about 110 HP to pull. You can pull our ripper with minimal HP... You can go faster and you can have all the benefits Chisel Ripper can provide you. 

You may ask why I use the Chisel Ripper for hay (or forge) with all the costs you encounter just to get your field prepped. Then there is the seed 7 to 9 $ up to 12 $ for organic. But, the better the soil drainage the longer your field will stay productive.  Alfalfa can handle dry but not high moisture well. I have noticed that your grass respond well to the chisel ripper ground. As you know, corn is also technically a grass.
The CR 5.0 is a very economical option. Look how easy it will pay for itself. For one load of good quality 3rd or 4th alfalfa at a price of $5  for 100 bails. With seven loads you have paid for the ripper plus you get change back.

I admit precision farming is a good thing but years of farming taught me if nothing else doing the same thing over and over more than likely will not get the same results. I have spent all my years of farming on ground that is very inconsistent in its self. We have about 6 different soil types in 60 acres on the home place plus property that has its own challenges. It is a little inconvenient but a good place to prove the constancy of your tillage practices in different conditions. I have watched our Chisel Ripper enhance our yields in all soil types every year no matter what other factors have been thrown at it. We have had corn yields averaging above 200+sence our second year of using the Chisel Ripper. That is when we had most of our compaction issues addressed. ​

With the coming end of fall tillage, you will see a lot of different tillage styles in our area. This is my take on it all: Look at it this way when it comes to corn stalks if they are on top of the ground. Stalks are not being used to their fullest potential. When they are left on top as they break down you are losing the energy that you used to grow them. If you bury the stalks or other organic matter under a few inches of dirt, it helps maintain carbon into the soil instead of releasing it into the atmosphere. With our CR (Chisel Ripper), only a little amount of material is left on top to help control run off.
