ABSTRACT:
An agricultural earth working system including a vertically adjustable deep tillage tool in tandem with a V-shaped sweep blade tool, the system being mounted on a field traversable frame and adapted to be drawn through the field by a conventional farming tractor. A disk is positioned in front of a shank for the sweep blade tool. The system cuts roots of weeds with the sweep blade and at the same time deep shatters or cultivates the soil with the deep tillage tool in such a manner that very little of the field surface is disturbed, so as to retain stubble cover and prevent erosion, yet destroying the weeds and sufficiently working the ground beneath the surface, especially with the deep tillage tool to enhance water absorption.
