TILLING, GENERAL
The J-72mechanicaldriverotarytillerisanunusually

to secure maximumbenefitsforyourgarden. This rotary

or furrowstherotarytillerturnsthe soil inchunksor
smalt particles....andtherein lies the secret ofthetillers'
versatility. A rotarytillercanbe used toperformanyof
thefollowingfunctions:
1. Change soil physicalconditions, such asinplowing,
cultivatingandaerating.
2. Controlweedsbychoppingandchurningtheminto
the soil.
3.Preparing seed bedsbytillingthe soil toa finetex-
ture.
4.Mixchemicalsororganicmatter such asfertilizer,
manure, herbicidesand insecticides intothe soil.
5.Managecropresiduebyturningitunderto form
mulch.
6. Modify soil topography such asinlandscaping.
7.Cultivateorlevelgroundaroundtrees,hedges,orin
orchards.
8.Blendvarious soils and soil modifiersforlandscaping
and greenhousework.
AERATION
For aerationpurposesthetillershouldsimplydisturb
the soil surfacewithoutcompletelyturningitover....in
much thesamemannerasinsertinga spadeeachfew
inches andlooseningthe soil inclumps.Thesurfaceof
the soil shouldbe left veryrough, with occasional holes
and deepfracturestoseveral inches. This permitsready

erosion orcrusting.Previouslytilledgardenareascanbe
aeratedbyoperatingthetilleratcomparativelyrapid

thetractor....tinesshouldenterandexitthe soil with
minimumtearingandchurning.
SEEDBED PREPARATION

workingofthe soil structuretobreakitupintosmall
