Big Tractors Plowing

[@farmer1129]

Thank you big tractor power, My 84 year old father loved it,

[@tf7274]

I appreciate you letting the tractors speak for themselves. Great video!

[@bigtractorpower]

😁👍👍. They each have a great sound. Many of them have a stand alone full spec and detail video here on the channel. Sometimes it’s fun to just show them working.

[@remmiemax3624]

Old Iron never gets old.....Great to see 'em in action!

[@kylekenan2321]

Then what makes it old iron? 🤔

[@remmiemax3624]

@@kylekenan2321 I used synonyms; old (adjective) = classic. Iron (noun) = Implement. Just like the "old iron" in your avatar. Better yet, ask you Dad or Grand Dad or your English Teacher.

[@AndreiTupolev]

Now that's a sight to warm the heart. That John Deere 8020 is mighty impressive.

[@mrourcanada8964]

Wow that open station John Deere 8020 that’s pretty cool I don’t remember seeing that before actually all the open station articulator tractors were pretty cool this video thanks for sharing

[@richmaniscalco201]

Awesome video! I have always dreamed since I’ve been a teenager of working a field with that kind of soil, rich dirt with no stones! Southern tier of western New York, I think the stones reproduce LOLAfter watching this video, Lord willing I am going to make plans and get out to the show next year. Thanks again.

[@mayforddavis9291]

I was born in Champaign, Illinois; my grandfather had some acreage in Rantoul that he farmed. I also had an Aunt & Uncle that had a farm in that area. Great to see the old horses of the past.

[@gliderider7077]

The fella on the Oliver with the Detroit, I bet he says “huh” a lot! 🤣

Sorry, that one's lost on me ! Liked what I saw but still don't get it, eh?

[@kylekenan2321]

@@culmalachie those Detroits are twice as loud as anything else.

[@culmalachie]

@@kylekenan2321 Huh? Och I just don't Listen to the noise - managed fine so far: - maybe that's how I didn't "get it". Thaks for the enlightenment - good one! but have you heard the V12 Detroits in the Euclid Dumpers? when body tipped there was very little silencing - hear them Miles away. Probably Archie had very little conversationwith & Hugh More in the Pub, huh?

[@braderrick]

Nothing impressive to most but my favorite was the 4030. When I was a kid our neighbor bought a cab 4030 and I thought it was the greatest thing ever made lol. It was indeed a hoss for our neck of the woods. Their “big” tractor previous to that was a ford 5000 lol. Miss those days.

[@montybolinger6383]

My 4030 was a great tractor but I don't think it would pull that plow he was pulling that fast and that deep, I first thought he had put a turbo on it but I couldn't detect one in the exhaust note, and it didn't seem to have the pump turned up as it wasn't rolling any coal,,,,"smoke".

[@sonicthehedgehog8424]

I like your big tractor power videos

[@raywhite1442]

Pretty interesting watching them plow plowed ground

[@derrickzenner9300]

I was going to say that the twin Oliver was my favorite but then that beautiful steiger cp1325 took the cake.

[@ikonseesmrno7300]

Is that an M37 to the right at about 0.56?? It sure looks like one. My dad had one of those that came from the Navy, several variants of the M38, an M151 & a tiny little paratrooper motorbike. That was when he was a member of the MVCC. Don't even know if they're around anymore. Was to many collector events with him & was in a few parades, too. Got traded off one year, to ride in an M48 Patton with some of my dad's buddies. That was a great time! Well, riding with my head sticking out the front hatch. Inside was different. I had to hold the headset to my head to keep the roaring engine from rattling my brains out of my ears. The GM in that Ollie in your video could not hold a candle to that Continental V12!! As for Rantoul next year.... pray for damp ground & rock that vote!! Regards!! Ooooh, hey.... did you get the email I sent out? It was to the address in your last baling video.

[@carlbloomquist708]

The 830 was pulling 4 bottoms, but only one was in the ground!

[@kylekenan2321]

And still struggling to pull it!

[@garyparr5431]

He was a bit out of adjustment hahaha

[@nellsonstout7001]

That’s the thing about HCOP or plow days in general. Half of the participants can’t set a plow, but they don’t care since it’s not their soil🤬

[@nellsonstout7001]

After seeing it now, I must say he should be ashamed of himself

[@dwightl5863]

Very hard ground none the less.

[@dunnjob]

The MM at 5:40.... wow. What a beautiful machine.

[@bigtractorpower]

The A4T 1900 was fully restored. The man driving the tractor was the engineer who developed the A4T series. He restored this prototype and brought it to Rantoul. Sadly he passes away a few months after this event.

If you don't have a ute, do they still let you in to the event?

That International 1566 was the lap of luxury having A/C in 1975.

All the John Deere tractor did...

[@choreboy3906]

Mighty Minneapolis Moline!

[@ericrice4156]

I love that big 1566 there at the end!!!

[@Blackwellll3066]

Really cool tractors some one i couldnt belive how much weight they have on them....and to think now we plow as fast as like 14 mph or dont even plow at all

[@stephenjones4339]

That MM had a smooth sounding engine

[@mark_osborne]

Yes ! I think it was propane based on what looked to be a large tank under the seat

[@robertjones882]

Love bigg ol tractors

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍

[@SimonKL11]

Great plowing action👍😁 nice to see some classics at work👍😉

[@piperdoug428]

Just something nice about black dirt fresh folded. i know guys who run gliders miss the days of fallow as they could stay up all afternoon by running into all the up-drafts over the plowed fields.

[@arzamumma1202]

The 830 4 bottom with 1 bottom in the ground. There is science to properly adjust any plow setup to perform properly ........tractor wheel setting, line of draft and level setting. I found over the years representing a farm equiptment company............most farmers never been instructed and don't know how to set up plow, thus they pull hard and won't maintain depth.

[@butchsmith1270]

arza mumma you are so right, our neighbor always thought Dad had a “ souped up” Farmall M cause he could pull the plow in 4th gear when he could only run in 3rd gear! All because he knew how to set up the plow. I thank him for teaching me, however useless it is today.

[@travishill8786]

You gotta show the whole rig man! Not just the tractor.

[@bigtractorpower]

This was filmed at the Half Century of Progress Show. Filming is often very tight during the plowing demonstrations because of the large crowds. I do my very best to film around the people and golf carts. For the most part I think o showed the tractors and plows. They roll by in 22 seconds and keep going. There are no long approaches to film like being out in the field for regular plowing.

[@CK-yi6pc]

Absolutely great! Powerful tractors and deep plows🇨🇱

[@jankotze1959]

All of them are great and beautiful

That ground looked like it was as hard as concrete

JD 1010! Forgot how small they were!

[@bigtractorpower]

Big size difference between a 1010 and 8020.

[@Matt_spalding82]

Yeah I have one that needs a lot of work. But it was a great little utility tractor when it ran

[@justinschmitz8034]

I could see the 1010 opening a farrow for the 8020 making it a lot easier to pull the big boy.

[@onionfriend9799]

Love it!

[@bigtractorpower]

[@hootche1]

What was the last tractor in the video doing, In the furore out the furore, he needs new glasses, or less beer.??????????????

[@paulhudson8321]

Sadly all of our outdoor farm shows are cancelled in Ontario because of the virus which had virtually no chance of infecting people outdoors. They’re mainly closed due to liability issues. Events are afraid of being sued. At least I can watch big tractor power.

[@dwightl5863]

One hears that quite a bit about liability. A person still does have a choice whether to attend or not. No one HAS to be there.

[@douglasmelcher404]

I plowed many a year ago with an F twenty with a one bottom 18-inch moldboard

[@nycsox987]

They all must be so deaf from running those tractors.

[@m4ttyofficialchannel]

how deep were you plowing? because usually here in italy in this events we plow 30-35-40cm deep with much harder soils but we usually pull only 1 bottom plows

[@lorzon]

30cm is around 1 foot? Some places in the Midwest, with ultra-high clay soil, might plow that deep, but more likely they'll plow 20cm to 25cm after using a sub-soiler to break-up the hardpan down to 60+ cm. Depends on the crop and soil makeup/conditions. Locally, our soil is a really nice sandy loam that drains well but forms a crust that allows it to hold a decent amount of moisture without staying a mudhole or turning into a brick.

[@m4ttyofficialchannel]

@@lorzon ah ok if you want to see a plowing event in italy here's the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWG7YqqdlNJ8r80
