Southeast North Dakota
I think one of the first no-till drills was the Yielder. It was only like 16' or 18', and it was heavy enough and had large enough blades to penetrate concrete. If you've ever seen one you won't forget it. They were discontinued sometime in the 90's I believe. They had a tank mounted above the tool to carry seed, like a press drill. A neighbor a few miles away still has one sitting in the corner of the shed. It's quite a machine.
