Summary:A system and method cuts and increases surface area of surface stubble material while contemporaneously mulching, tiling and aerating the soil. A discoidal coulter blade is configured with sharpened areas at the circumference for cutting the surface stubble as well as reducing the downward pressure required for the blade to enter the type and depth of soil desired. The sharpened areas include a first long bevel, a second shorter bevel and an optional opposite counter bevel. The first and second bevels aid in coulter blade lifespan ensuring a self-sharpened blade while the counter-bevel allows mating with a second coulter blade at a sharpened point.
