@tommyboygunz3449 tappets come in from bottom.... would be faster to pull engine and do it right. Why not fix the bolt hole right? Now it's still using the factory bolt with the thread repair
@tommyboygunz34492 ай бұрын
Tappets can be changed with motor in truck. The threads in the rocker should be deep enough that you can just use a longer bolt.

Thanks for taking the time to go through what you did to fix the net wrap issue. I've got a different Vermeer model but that looks the same. I've adjusted the brake different times to get it working well, usually if I switched net wrap brands but didn't know about the adjustment on that little bolt you showed. The trick will be for me to remember how to do this by the time mine does the same thing! I get about 1 funky looking bale every 20-30 bales now so not too concerned but its good to have this info for when it does happen.

Have you ever considered planting in to rye and roller crimping it? Every county needs a decent drill and roller crimper that can be checked out by local operators. There are also grants for trying out different things. A nice cover crop that winter kills, except for cereal rye. On beans, it’s really painless.
Yes, it did not work for me the 2 years I tried it.
@LtColDaddy716 ай бұрын
@@iowaorganicfarmer8128 I tried planting after rolling, and it was a disaster. It has to be a standing cover. The closing system set up has never worked with the same configuration twice in a row. I always have to try a few out and see what is doing the best job. Very simple planter. No row cleaners, coulters, and planters with the wheels between the row units are an issue. Not much organic around me. I wish there was.

Greetings from Europe! I am also an organic farmer. you do a good job! how is the infrastructure over there for organic farmers? is it easy to sell your organic soyabeans and other organic products? what is the price for 1.000kg soyabeans from your farm? Do you have many organic certification companies in the usa? how many acres of farmland you need in the usa to make a living for a family of 6 people? i am so interested in organic farming in the us
@iowaorganicfarmer81288 ай бұрын
A lot of great questions, thanks. The organic facilities are few and spread out. We have a feed producer within 20 mins that takes the corn. The Soybeans, on the other hand, have to be shipped. I usually ship them over 5 hours by truck. Corn is expected to be $2 lower for the next harvest into 2025 ($6/bushel). Soybeans should be about the same price $18. We are running fewer acres this year, around 200. Most seed to alfalfa/ grass mix, only 30 acres of Soybeans for 2024 harvest.
@michi29667 ай бұрын
@@iowaorganicfarmer8128 I wish you a great harvest for 2024. i didn´t expect that your prices for organic soyabeans in the USA are lower as ours here in europe. We will have 20-22 Dollar per Bushel Soyabeans. we also get subvension from the state for planting soyabeans and also extra subvension for organic farming near the standard subvention per acre. i made a few researches on the internet to check farms for sale in the US. actually there are not many farms for sale and only a few farms are over 1000 acres where you could cultivate soybeans. i think from a 500 acre organic farm in the US you could provide for a family with 6 people? Your machine park looks a bit older, do you find it difficult to buy new machines as a farmer? could you plant soyabeans in Texas? or they wouldn t grow there?
@iowaorganicfarmer81287 ай бұрын
@michi2966 I don't know what the "subvension's" are you refer to. I like the older tractors, they do the same job as the newer ones, and I work on them myself. No dealer expenses. There are farms for sale, but they're expensive too. Finding one close to fit in the program is more of a challenge. I'm in pretty hilly area, so roading the equipment can be big downside of far away farms.
