Orthman Fallow Master

Erosion Control
Wheat-fallow rotation methods of dryland farming remain the dominant cropping systems in many arid and semi-arid regions and conventional tillage practices leave the soil vulnerable to erosion.  Orthman fallow tillage tools are an effective tillage system, and help retain higher levels of surface residue and soil structure during the fallow period to limit erosion.

Water Retention
Orthman’s fallow tillage tools create the ideal conditions to maximize soil moisture retention. Residue maintenance on the soil surface helps trap snow, absorb raindrop impact, slow runoff and minimize evaporation, and also helps control weeds at critical times in the production cycle.

Fallow Master
The Fallow Master is designed to give you high-efficiency tillage in a wide range of soil conditions by cutting through weeds and cover crops while leaving the majority of residue exposed for maximum water storage efficiency.
