My Grandfather bought an old rusted potato digger from a neighbor. After a month of part time cussing and oiling it was ready. It had a rod type web behind the digger blade. In that case the "rocks/taters" were the keepers. Removing this many stones might lead to flooding of the field. 😁

I could have used this in my back yard garden. I've been pulling out stones for a few decades, and always find more each spring. Actually sifted with hardware cloth down a foot, and STILL get more each year. The contractors who built the houses destroyed the topsoil, and in digging the cellar they just spread the subsoil with stones over the property and threw out grass seed.

[@dfgyuhdd]

@@waynemizer4912 Soil with its original structure and roots heaves together in frost, when you till you kinda ruin its ability to lock things (rocks) into place. It will eventually regain its structure after a while if you stop tilling. I'm not anti-till but thats one of the consequences (it also becomes more vulnerable to erosion).

What's the purpose of collecting the rocks? How are they used?

[@lencoharvesters]

Great question! For farmers as they work the land up, to get ready to plant, rocks surface and can damage their machines, so they remove the stones to prevent this. Sometimes the rocks are removed and just dumped off to the side, where other times they are sold to different companies that use them for landscaping and different things.

@@lencoharvesters I would imagine that the rocks could be broken into gravel for aggregate with a rock crusher.
