For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.A good roto will certainly break up the soil.It will leave it ready for raking and clearing of stones and old growth of grass and weeds. Then lightly compact the area by treading or light roller. Rake again to provide a loose top to take seed or turf. Spend the time in preparation and you will have a good area to work with.
