There really is alot off fun sitting in a big tractor and ploughing fields for long hours ,most people wouldn't understand after turning over thousands of acres the satisfaction it brings to a farmer. Australia.

That was a damn lovely video. I miss plowing. It was slow, but it was rewarding. John Deere tractors are my favorite. Seeing the old iron out in the field brings me back to my youth. I like that. I spent many hours in an 8440 John Deere. I did get it stuck one day. It was so bad that I could walk out of the cab onto the ground. I didn't need any steps. My uncle was MAD at me. He had every right to be. 16:25

Great video from yesterday years. With a 4020 Deere and 5-16’s we filled the dead furrow in by going back over it both ways with just the front half of the plow down. Finishing with a disc was a breeze after doing that. Thanks for the memories!!

i remember plowing in the 60's with a 4020 and a 4-16 plow, 16 meaning 16 inch bottoms. I'm glad you took the time to explain the "dead furrow". I was sitting here thinking, "Here comes the dead furrow. My dad always made sure we closed the dead furrows in the fall. They were tough to drive across and they always filled with rain and that's where we got stuck in the spring. We quit moldboard plowing in our sandy soil around the mid "60s and went to minimum tillage chisel plowing and disking. What a difference that made in soil conservation!

I live in Canandaigua, NY an enjoy plowing and discing my garden with my 1953 JD 40S and 411 plow. I also have a Hesling offset disk that was purchased in the early 90s by my grandmother for her small vineyard in Ripley, NY.

I don't know what it is but i just love the old school tractors especially that 4x4 JD. And you know those plows would be tripping if that was in Upstate NY. 😂😂😂😂😂 Some of us antiques aren't ready to be parked in the " back 40 " yet. 😂😂😂
@mikeboettcher25479 ай бұрын
There is still some moldboard plowing done in southern Minnesota today due to our heavy soil. Some farmers do it for the soil warms up faster and some for weed and insect control. We have gone to deep ripping but still have a plow in the shed

Plowed thousands of acres, from 2-12’s with a JD-M, through 8 bottom JD hyd. adjustable with 8630 and 4850. Various IH just to round out. Real fun was changing bottoms on the 2800 JD from JD to Oliver/White slat to plow deep muck. Top this off with using IH plows for turning mint under….the higher draft in muck scoured better.

I went to the Simon School at the U of R, so seeing these machines running in very familiar country, about 20 minutes from where I lived, is a real treat. In the period when these tractors were more common, our main tillage team was an IH 1468 and a Case 1370, so not too different from these machines.

Many hours on a JD 620 pulling 3-14's Oliver pull type. Finished up plowing one fall with a couple of inches of snow on the ground and was snowing when I started in the morning. Fun to see the black contrast with the white. Heard said that one should not plow under snow. Don't know why. Yield was the same the next year.

I get it if it's the only tractor you have, but it seems like a waste of horsepower and diesel using the 175 HP John Deere 7520 to pull a six-bottom plow. Working on my dad's farm in south west Missouri in the late 70s and early 80s we pulled a 6-18 plow with a John Deere 4230 with the transmission set in B-2, dropping down to B-1 in heavy clay. That tractor probably had 110 or 120 HP.

Not with any of these tractors. The John Deere models were built in Waterloo, Iowa in 1972,1973 and 1980. The Case was built in Racine, WI. China was not a global manufacturing site at that time or any where close to it.
