replowing
Second pass tilling
Replowing is plowing land again, typically to break up soil that has settled or to turn under a previous crop.
Farmers replow fields to prepare for a new planting season or to work organic matter deeper into the earth.
The fields needed replowing after the early frost killed the winter wheat.
