Disc Bedder
The B.W. Implement Co. RTDB disc bedder incorporates three tools in one for less down time in a variety of crops. The RTDB is used after a crop is harvested or for ground prep before a mulcher comes in. The RTDB has ripper shanks that break up compaction in the furrows and we use a tandem disc structure to disc the tops of the beds and get it ready to plant. After that the third tool comes into play and furrows the rows back up. This allows you to not have to disc, rip, and pull up furrows through the whole field just the tops of the bed and furrows themselves. Also, you can adjust it to work over the top of drip tape. This tool is perfect for turn around quickly crops.
