If your tractor has a three point hitch, look at the "middle buster" or
"sub-soiler" implements. They are the same except for the blade. The
sub-soiler blade is narrow but doesn't throw the dirt out of the
trench. The middle buster throws the dirt out, but it is a wide blade.
Consider replacing the blade with something more the size you need.
Mine does triple duty, including a radial plow blade I made, that
dispenses the wire into the trench.
