The Brillion Soil Builder is best described as an alternative tillage tool to the moldboard plow. Introduced in the early 1970s, these machines and their ability for good, economical primary tillage have stood the test of time.
Basic straight cut coulters on a weighted gang in the front of the unit cut and size the residue. The chisel shanks, spaced on 15” centers and equipped with twisted chisel points, engage the soil and mix and blend the sized residue into an acceptable medium for preventing erosion and conserving moisture. These tools will leave the surface ridged to allow more surface to be available to the sun light for better dry down and warm up before the next planting season.
