DISK-CHAIN-DIKER OPERATION
H. T. Wiedemann
The disk-chain-diker implement has shown promise for
seedbed preparation on shrub-dominated rangeland. In
one pass the unit tills, smoothes the land, and forms
small basins. The poster was a video of the implement
traversing shrubs 3 to 12 feet tall, and stumps and uneven terrain, and scenes of soil condition following single
and double tilling. Detailed information on the implement is covered in the article entitled "Disk-Chain-Diker
Considerations for Seedbed Preparation" in the paper section of these proceedings.
Poster paper presented at the Symposium on Ecology, Management,
and Restoration of Intermountain Annual Rangelands, Boise, ID,
May 18-22, 1992.
