First 3 stages of getting the land ready

This is the first stage.
Spreading the fertilizer over the land when is is dry enough from the winter rains.






Second Stage.
During this stage, the manure is turned in the soil. It covers the manure with soil reducing the smell and is the first step in breaking up the dirt for planting.






Third stage.
In this photo you see the sub soiler. The tractor is pulling an implement that drags large teeth up to 3 feet below the surface through the dirt. The teeth breaks up the lower level of soil to
allow aeration and good drainage.



Carl says HI to everyone.








You have seen the first 3 stages or working the land and it is still not ready for planting.
