Semi-Mounted Reversible Plow
A semi-mounted reversible plow with a headstock for attachment to a tractor, a stabilizer which is connected to the headstock and on which a plow frame carrying two rows of plow bodies is mounted by way of at least a front turning arm in a manner rotatable about a horizontal turning axis, wherein an offset rocker in a rotatable manner to the turning arm and a front furrow rocker connected in an articulated manner to the offset rocker and in a rotatable manner to the plow frame, on the other hand, are arranged between the plow frame and the turning arm, and wherein the rockers can be moved by an adjustment actuator to positions causing different transverse distances between the headstock and in the direction of travel of the foremost plow body, such that the semi-mounted reversible plow is configured to selectively assume a furrow working position and an on-land working position.
CULTIVATOR
A cultivator is provided. The cultivator can have a main frame having a front end and a back end, a hitch assembly connected to the front end of the main frame, a tilling section attached to the back end of the main frame, a pair of main ground wheels, a first wing ground wheel and a second wing ground wheel, a plurality of ground engaging tools connected to and extending below the tilling section.

Tow-behind roller tool apparatuses, systems and methods
An apparatus includes a roller assembly including a roller frame and ground-contacting roller rotatably coupled with the roller frame. A suspension assembly includes a compressible suspension member operatively coupled with the roller assembly. A flexible rigging assembly includes an upper flexible rigging member and a lower flexible rigging member operatively coupled with the suspension assembly. The flexible rigging assembly is adjustable between a first state in which the upper flexible rigging member is taut and the lower flexible rigging member has a non-zero amount of upper flexible rigging member slack and a second state in which the lower flexible rigging member is taut and the upper flexible rigging member has a non-zero amount of lower flexible rigging member slack.

IMPLEMENT CONTOURING TOOLBAR
An agricultural machine includes a frame member; a toolbar coupled to the frame member parallel to the frame member; a row unit coupled to the toolbar; and an actuator coupled between the frame member and the toolbar, the actuator configured to rotate the toolbar based on a sensed position of the toolbar. Related methods are also disclosed.
Seed trench depth detection systems
A seed trench depth sensor is adapted to mount to an agricultural implement. The trench depth sensor determining the difference between a distance measured to a bottom of the seed trench by a first sensor and a distance measured to a surface of the soil by a second sensor disposed rearward of the first sensor.
