What are the pros and cons to a cultivator vs a tiller? I like the cultivator idea because its cheaper, less moving parts so it should be easier to maintain and it doesn't create a hard pan under the tilled soil as I understand a tiller does. I am also intrigued by the bedding option I've seen on cultivators at www.everythingattachments.com. Cost is not my most important concern since my dad has a tiller that he no longer uses that I'm sure I can buy at a very fair price. But I do like easy to maintain and using the right tool for the job.
My tractor is a L3800 and I have about 4 acres of land, but will only use maybe an acre or so for a garden and maybe another acre or so for a small orchard. So I will be tilling/cultivating around 2+/- acres.
So what are the pros and cons and opinions on a tiller vs cultivator?
