Me, my dad, and my stepfather run a micro farm in South Slovakia, when i tell you it's small, it is TINY, we don't have a harvester, but have all the things we need to get the job done, my dad's tractor is a Zetor Major 6911(69hp, 11 means rear wheel drive, diesel) and my stepfather's tractor is a Zetor Crystal 8911(89hp, rear wheel drive, diesel). That's all😁

Impressive machine, but unfortunately it's only causing damage to the land. Tilling ruins the soil composition, dries it out and deprives it of nutrients. This is turning previously rich soil into literally a desert around here. No till is the way to go. Policulture is even better. In my country the best wheat is grown using a no till method, without artificial fertilizers (which distort the protein in the grain). As a result of factory farming methods, the nutrient density in our crops is 60-200 times LESS than it used to be in the 1950s.

It was going much slower but if they had the ppl not standing on the 50’ plough and instead had more plough to pull I swear it wud be pulling the same 80’ plough just with less speed. I think if they made some changes to the original design of the 150 case steam engine and made some adjustments to the plough the 150 case steam engine wud be able to do the same work as this modern tractor.

He finished out his farming life in the mid-80s with an articulated Case 4890. And we thought the 4890 was a hoss. He saved that tractor for himself mostly while I was on a JD 6030 (the first tractor I drove with a cab, a/c, and am/fm radio) pulling 10 foot off-set and 20 foot leveling harrows. Thought I'd died and gone to heaven. Tractors, combines and implements have come a long way since I left the farm in the early 80s. Took up flying and made a career out of aviation, which was way more fun.

Certainly still needs more sound proofing from what I observed & heard. She's still far too loud to be sitting in there cranking along, without wearing additional hearing protection for 8 to 12+ hours at a time. Also need to update the cab with a better modern rear facing camera setup for seeing what's going on behind ya & for hitching up implements. I wonder if that old relic of a camera currently mounted at the rear, and the mini-tv, are still functional anymore? Regardless, I'm sure its picture quality is garbage. I'm all for keeping things original, but sometimes certain modern updates to any machine are very needed, for the health and well-being of the operator.

Love this video! We farm with a pair of Big Buds in central North Dakota. We also have the same exact chisel plow that the Williams Brothers run. We however run spikes on ours instead of sweeps like them. Thank you so much for documenting the 747 back in action, I'm glad to see that it back to work!

When you think of torque, remember this is a 2 strike diesel. One turn of the crank, 16 power pulses. You have seen the blower (supercharger) on a dragster? BB has two just to move the exhaust out and two turbos to move the air in.

Dave Crupel the reason I say that is we had a driverless orchard tractor in 1974 (Massey Fergusson). Although it was primitive by today's standards, driverless technology is advancing rapidly. Although this huge tractor is a bit of a big boy's toy, I'm sure someone in the US could make a battery version of it.
