old ploughing question

In article , Jim Webster jim@everyone .knows.where.by.now writes The is a small almost circular field round here that they did plough it as one furrow. Literally just went in and spiraled toward the centre. I'll bet he wished he hadn't when he got towards the centre! All that running over your ploughed land, UGH! may not have been as bad with horses (by the time tractors were introduced one hedge had come out and made it a part of a 5 acre field.) and disk harrowing it might have been easier. It is the only example I can think of. They plough to follow contours in the MidWest (USA) , don't they? I've taken the liberty of x posting this to sci agric as Gordon will be able to answer this. -- Jim Webster "The pasture of stupidity is unwholesome to mankind" 'Abd-ar-Rahman b. Muhammad b.
