Brush hogging farms with the John Deere 8400

Tag along as I brush hog waterways and road ditches on my rented row crop acres. We try to do this atleast once, if not twice a summer. Keeps everything looking nice and tidy.

I’ve worked on a crew planting and mowing conservation grass. Covering thousands of acres in CRP fields kind of has ruined me but at least we do it with autosteer.

I agree with you. There is great satisfaction with knocking all that garbage down and mowing it up nice.

[@bendahmm7393]

Mowing is very satisfying but running the combine is my favorite. Not only are you seeing the results of a year's work, it's just a lot of fun. I wouldn't mind seeing an updated equipment tour. Seems like you are constantly wheeling and dealing, I can't keep up.

For some reason I enjoy hauling manure, you get a lot of stretch brakes because of loading it. Just I little more verity rather than doing back and fourth jobs. But hopefully I will get to combine my soybeans this year, so that would probably be my new favorite job. Great video Gavin

Well well well… look who’s back on KZbin

Was just going to comment on how much more productive Ethan is mowing ditches with the zero turn. . . . Haha.

Using the 8940 box car magnum and mowing ditches is the best hearing that Cummins roar

If I remember correctly in those tractors, the little dial with the red band over the top is field cruise, you can dial in the max engine rpm you want and it won’t go over it, in your case 1200rpm, even if your hand throttle is wide open.

[@gavinspoor4005]

Yup! That dial comes in handy for sure

[@gavinspoor4005]

Yes, I will try to include that in an upcoming video

[@walterlaubscherjr2011]

Glad your back and posting can’t wait the more videos we’re hoping to start corn harvest in 2 weeks

[@gavinspoor4005]

Goodluck with fall harvest! It’s coming up fast

[@jackyeakey6905]

Nice to see your videos again

[@dylandirkes3169]

Great video Gavin keep it up I’d love to see some content when you start harvest

[@gavinspoor4005]

Sounds good will do

I like mowing weeds…. I use a 4020 and a I think it’s a 10’ John Deere one… I like mowing weeds because I like to test my braveness when I straddle ditches or up along banks… I can mow a lot and do a lot of stuff with it

[@jgiajnorio]

Nice work. Keep them coming. Curious on more detail about growing popcorn. How close can you have different varieties? I’ve heard of some folks growing sweet corn beside it without cross pollination, any experience?

[@davidmicalizio824]

👍

Is mowing ditches common practice by you? Why do people do it? I know why you like it but around here there's no room to mow. 😅
