A tillage machine includes a plurality of front tines and a plurality of rear tines rotatably secured to a frame which is pulled by a tractor in a direction of travel. The front tines are aligned with the rear tines along the direction of travel whereby the front tines penetrate the soil and create tine soil penetrations, and the rear tines enter the soil in the penetrations created by the front tines. Preferably, the front tines are also rotatably secured to the frame in a clockwise or counter-clockwise angle about a front pivot point. The rear tines are rotatably secured to the frame in a clockwise of counter-clockwise angle about a rear pivot point opposite the front tines angle. The front tines penetrate and fracture the soil in one direction and the rear tines enter the soil penetrations created by the front tines and fracture the soil in another direction.
