JCB FASTRAC 4220 PLOUGHING

Getting on with some ploughing now that we've had some rain.

[@cibie01]

What makes these style of videos is the long unedited video from the drone, all the fancy stuff putting clips together is nice yes but cant beat just watching it as it happens.

[@Chieftain7530]

Love the drone footage w/ commentary, adds a much greater perspective on what you're doing while you're still able to explain it too as you go along

[@Captain._Phil]

Hi George video is amazing, quite enjoyable to watch , Always wanted to see how farms were plowed, thanks

[@ozzie1989landy]

Another great video George! Like the style of this but I enjoy watching you because of the variety of styles you produce and the level of explanation you give to each job. Keep up the great work, it must be so much effort to put these together but we really do appreciate it 👍🏻😊 thank you!

[@robertdaly9036]

Great video and great drone work. Great commentary as well. Always a pleasure to watch a man who knows his stuff. 👍👍

[@fisher7814]

Love to see the straight ploughing. Good piece of kit that gps and obviously very good operator.

[@richwells8706]

Another cracking vid George. Really like the drone footage with in cab commentary. 👏👍👍

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Love the whole style of the video George, fantastic drone footage, the Fastrac certainly looks the business 🚜 and with that plough makes a great outfit - doing a grand job as well. Good to see proper land management (ploughing) taking place, I’m not into this minimum till or direct drilling lark, I think it’s right to turn the soil over every year. I was at our local vintage ploughing match last Saturday, the field had been direct drilled for the past ten years - the top two inches was like a dusty flour and below that was as hard as the road. Terrible conditions!!

[@robbone1189]

Yep good video, I like how the drone footage is in real-time with you chattering away in the cab. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@darrenendersby9079]

George great video mate drone firming is 10/10 keep up the good work mate in that great jcb fastrac i love viewing the videos mate 👍👍👍👌

[@philipcross5332]

Brilliant vid George ! And I really like seeing the drone footage 👌

[@onewyatt1]

Great style video. As someone who wishes I were doing some plowing, you bring the experience in a full enough measure to bring the joy of such. Thanks from East Texas amigo.

[@bobbrooks266]

Awesome video George. Drone footage is fantastic. Keep them coming. Regards

[@willmoore3790]

You're one smooth operator George (of the drone I mean) the tractor drives itself lol keep it up 👍

[@liamdavies5403]

That's great looking plough we have Kuhn with 18 mole board 7 furrow fully mounted and it's one heavy plough! We pull her with Fendt 736 and still put 1/4 tonne counter weigh on fron

[@henrytomlinson3634]

Hi George excellent drone footage really nice to see gives us plenty of time to focus and seeing what you do. Henry, North of lichfield

[@jp6610]

all your videos are good keep them coming

[@andrewlloyd6879]

Great video George like the drone footage, keepup the good work.

[@onewyatt1]

PS: love the feeling got by keeping rows straight, father and grandfather showed me some methods. Again, great video and thanks amigo.

[@MrE30]

Great video George liking the running commentary with drone footage

[@philipbainbridge5276]

great filming George...doing a nice job!!

[@Stoutguy]

I liked the way that video was done, much better seeing things from the drone. I did some on land ploughing the other day without gps for various reasons, and it was good to actually give me something to think about, but my line certainly wasnt straight🤣

[@christinegibbins6105]

Thanks George, nice bit of kit, good to see job well done, we often go in with a chisel plough to break up the tram lines, but that is not needed there? different style from our local ploughing matches!!

[@gibbo9089]

Amazing drone footage!

[@lewishelme7724]

Best agricultural content on KZbin

[@svengranzow3702]

nice film from onland ploughing no drive in the furrow.ploughing is the best for new seed,nice dronefooting tweets

[@ottohahahaha]

i enjoy your vid`s, great job

[@bobpaterson1845]

Good video George 👍 saw a few times from drone footage that the front furrow actually starting to turn over quite a way in front of the mouldboard shows how stiff the soil is 🙄💪💪

[@reghendy216]

Another great vid george keep it up mate 👍👍

[@stevecapper9321]

nice video George I would like to see more Dronie videos it does a great job very stable great video all round mate keep them coming . S C UK.

[@adamholmans4842]

Some great editing top vid 👍🏻

[@jacobskomager]

Great video with drone filming and voice over 👍🏻 Could you maybe one day film a sneek peak into your Mrs camera bag, just for the photo geeks among us 😉

[@niallirish6975]

Great video as usual George, though once you stepped out of the cab for the ending was quality 👍👍

[@liamdavies5403]

I have never seen this vid although I'm subscribed. Having great day thinking of putting some grass on bold spots where floods have damaged.

[@brunocharles3179]

Too bad, I can hardly catch a word But this Is a nice video France This tractor makes me dream quite often At present, I have a 2170 and I expect to change for the new serie A 4220 or a 4190

[@Agriculturespotter]

Really nice George! 💪

[@lolkevandewitte1713]

For a better turnover of the soil you could use mouldboard extensions. In the past Kverneland’s couldn’t do without on heavier soils. Speed is also a critical factor. If you drive to fast (> 7 km/hour) the topsoil will come to fast of your little top mouldboards (don’t know the English for it), and that causes lumps that prevent an optimal turn of the soil. They should also go no deeper than 4-5cm, for the same reason. It’s a pity that on a Kverneland they have a fixed angle. For an optimal turnover of the soil for every inch deep you should plough 1,5 (or a little more) broad. Sorry for my poor English, hope you understand it... nice vid!

[@conneill8190]

Great video George..

[@OutofTownwithRobinBell]

Hi, George you do a great Job ! Making good entertaining video's keep it up 👍

[@CALVO36]

Always remember at oxenbold farms est scotch corner .tyas village farm !! Polish tractor dealer round there 80s ..ursurs..fairly made a grunt with the plough on ..

[@Ritchie-yr2gl]

Another top video mate 👍

[@antonyfarming]

Great video George 👍 maybe a little bit of exhaust note when she's pulling!!! love the drone footage 👍

[@johngell4842]

why dislike ? another top video thanks george 🤗

[@colmkennedy3109]

Good video George 👍🏻

[@hiscifi2986]

Just wondered if there is any adjustment on the width of the Disk Coulter. It seems to be a bit narrow, as the last plough is undercutting the disk and leaving lots of clods in the furrow. I liked to see an empty furrow, when using the old Ransoms 4 furrow, as I felt that any clod left in the furrow, spoiled the tractor balance the next time around.

[@ginggur17]

Cracking tractor, it really is.

[@OutofTownwithRobinBell]

Thanks mate 👍

[@gnw6365]

Confused. How do 6 14" furrows equal 2.35 metres ? I use a 7f and can't seem to settle on a consistent working width.

[@JDrostAgricultureVideoNL]

Great video

[@simonspeedo8122]

brill vid coverage 👍

[@stephenollis754]

How do you what distance to keep wheels from the furrow

[@CALVO36]

Top vid George 😎😁

[@eraaspr1]

I really like the combination with drone footage and you explaining things. What does your crop rotation look like on the farm?

[@benpattinson1]

I bet those plough points are pretty hot pulling through that hard ground George.

[@ralphrogers3433]

Great vid George keep it up. I like the drone coverage. You have the technology on the yellow beasts so why not use it.

[@Countrystock]

Daft question but How do you get the back weight on and off the JCB?? Nice one George

[@christhemilkman1]

Great vid George, are the depth wheels used as transport wheels when you are transporting the plough on the road?

[@riskikewes7930]

like so confort😄

[@machandler70]

Hi George, Forgive my ignorance, but when I was a Lad the local tw30 pulled a 7 furrow plough. How come the more powerful fast track is pulling a 6 furrow? Many thanks. Mike

[@rickerb7196]

Do you have liquid filled tires for weight like here in the States?

[@GENESISR_RRANCH]

What gear were you in and how fast were you going thank you

[@aidanmunnelly769]

Top class

[@paddygoesracing]

Love it

[@markoaragovic7645]

The jcb has bigger tires in the front?

[@shepherd1006]

Well did you get the field done in 4 hours.

[@66littlefarmer9]

How many hours has the jcb done

[@benbright5382]

How many furrows do you reckon she would be able to pull George.

[@colincampbell3679]

Great video.. Yes I think this is the way to show off the actions the tech the way to do things in farming? George a couple of questions for you sir! 1 > does the JCB tractors ever use wheel weights? I not ever seen that on yours. 2 > do you believe that soon we see the tractors like yours do plowing and cultivating a field by the auto drive and steering without you needing to be in the tractor at all? just have a remote stop controller to stop the tractor if needed. Thanks.

[@jons6125]

Ooh rear whee steer 😮

[@Daniel-gf1zo]

How long time take that field to plough?

[@russellpetrie119]

theres something therapeutic about watching ploughing I think that's why it popular watching

[@alistairpowers8129]

Intertesting video as always George thank you for posting. The last furrow #6 does not look as crisp as it should, is it due to the ground conditions being a little firm? should be okay you are running a disk coulter on that one

[@scoobyears01]

Yeah you can also see a few chunks of earth flick up and out under the land wheel causing it to lift up the back end of the plough.. but still a good vid George keep her lit !!

[@lesthompson5907]

no thro tail bald on the shell's gorge is that why the not throwing the clod ,?

[@jons6125]

Considered wheel weights?

[@duncanblanchard334]

Yikes, when did they stop putting discs on ploughs. How many acres can you plough at that speed with that plough and what fuel consumption would you get. Great video George.👍

[@davidmacdonald8736]

George do you prefer level ploughing or in furrow ,? And is it purely because of the tyre width that u plough level in the fast trac?

[@GeorgeSaunders]

Doesn't bother me either way, plough on top to use autosteer, plough in furrow when it gets wet👍

[@firionrazar3797]

Hello, can you please write me which exact Kverneland model plough this is? Especially since it is a on land plough. Thank you!

[@GeorgeSaunders]

It is an LO85

[@2xxx2xxx21]

I bet trimble are putting guidance and auto steer in the tw

[@garybone1516]

👍 top guy

[@brendanwhite9799]

Do you plough for everything or do you sow some mintill

[@aministratorgeneral.9298]

When is mrs, s, going to do another video ,havent seen one in ages,..hope all is well..

[@ginggur17]

Does the auto steer operate the twin wheel steer once you drop the plough in, or does she just move the fronts George?

[@GeorgeSaunders]

I put it into a delayed steering mode when doing work with autosteer, it allows just the front wheels to steer when actually under guidance but still gives the manoeuvrability of 4 wheel steer at the headlands

[@ginggur17]

George, technology is pretty impressive indeed. I love it.

[@paulbugden8573]

I recon you will be getting gps in the tw25

[@kluckfabrication5991]

Why is plowing done so much over in the Europe? In the US very few people plow the land unless breaking or turning over new ground.

[@stephenlunt4451]

Yes very nice J C B. Love have to drive at. Please can you but your cut grass. Thanks Steve

[@stephenlunt4451]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@aministratorgeneral.9298]

Your starting to look like a countryfile presenter with ending like that,,:-) . i notice on the return run you are closer to the ploughing edge than when you go down the field, and also why dont you use the switchback turn at the end of each run as it eliminates the need for reversing and without stopping and it would put you directly inline with the new furrow,.

[@danhickling3565]

Yeah george for country file!

[@glynwilliams8564]

How do you keep the tractor straight when ploughing

[@szilvesztercsaszar4027]

there's a steering wheel inside and when you turn it left, the tractor goes left and when you turn it right, the tractor- yes, you guessed right-goes right. aaaand if you keep it straight, the machine goes straight :)

[@eddygoodwin7089]

It has gps

[@mesutarabacoglu2364]

Which engine does it ise?

nice drone shots what drone you using

[@GeorgeSaunders]

Cheers Robin, it's a Yuneec Typhoon H👍

[@douglasbuhr5741]

what are the advantages of 14 vs 16 vs 18

[@alexveldhuis6004]

More inches = more working width = faster job. This with fewer legs and wearing parts and thus lower cost. Fewer inches means the strip being turned is narrower and will invert more easily. This helps bury the plant material, desirable if you plan to create a bed and seed soon after because your equipment will not block up. But people also plough in Autumn and let the weather break it down to plant in Spring. In that case, maximising surface area is the goal and ridges provide that. So soil is just turned over its side and leaning against the next furrow. It does not have to be 'clean' free of plant material as the Winter frosts will take care of that. Bigger furrow widths can be used here. Essentially these are the extremes and growers will decide on their specs based on what they want to achieve, their soils and conditions and ultimately that is then paid for, or compromised by budget limitations

[@ginggur17]

I’d love your job. As you know lol.

[@briangreen8887]

It's alright mate give it a whirle but you got get a tractor first 😂

[@BigFatSouvlaki]

Not a farmer here so wondering why does he have to rotate the plow everytime at the end of a row?

[@fredrikrevfem1103]

He rotates the plow so that it shifts the earth the same direction.

[@BigFatSouvlaki]

@@fredrikrevfem1103 Right! If he didn't what would the problem be? Uneven distribution of the dirt, like an uneven field?

[@fredrikrevfem1103]

You want to shift all the dirt the same direction. The plow makes about 15cm deep groove, yo need to fill IT in with the next pass, the Job gets a netter result and less work to smooth it out before sowing of next crop, you drive less on the dirt an gets less compaction in the soil.

[@BigFatSouvlaki]

@@fredrikrevfem1103 You are a top lad!! Thank you a lot for the information, it has been quite some time I was wondering why. Thank you!
