Farming in trash requires the right equipment. Leaving more residue when planting to prevent wind and water erosion is a necessary and accepted farming practice. How to move the trash and make an acceptable seed bed has been a problem. Smooth or notched discs move too much soil, causing unwanted planting depressing and leaving the seed bed susceptible to crusting. Finger wheels have no concavity and when placed at an angle skid through soil, which can bend teeth, and tend to push and wrap trash.

Sunco’s trash discs solve the problem of farming in trash. A concave disc, when placed at an angle, will turn easily and flow material to the side. Concavity, along with the unique tooth design, allows the trash discs to contact material in the seed bed, then flow and release it between rows. This tooth design also prevents the concave disc from plowing into the soil. Sunco also separates the lead and trail discs. This is very important because when moving just trash, trash it all that turns the discs, If they are compete in for the same stalk, root balls, or residue, they will stop turning and plug. The separation of the two discs allows each disc to move material and not compete with other disc for the same material.
