Today we are trying out the The Great Plains Turbo-Max 1200! We are pulling it with the John Deere 7810 at 7 to 10 MPH. Thank you to Lindstrom Equipment for bringing the implement out to us and helping set it up. Let us know in the comments what you think of vertical tillage and what implements you use for tillage. Thank you all for watching!

Thanks Great Plains for giving a small farmer a chance to see what is out there for the farmer. I watch lots of farm videos and I see that Great Plains has a tried and true machine big time. Thanks Gierok Farms for posting this video.

I haven’t been involved in farming since my mid-teens back in the early 60’s. There-north central Missouri Chariton river bottom-it was all moldboard plows in the fall followed by a disc before planting. I don’t think anyone there was trying any other tillage mode back then. It’s fascinating to me to watch these videos and hear the discussions about the benefits of different equipment and techniques.

Interesting. It certainly appears (to me-a non farmer) to rip things up and break them down, but not sure how it would work for you. Know you will check it out thoroughly and make an informed decision. Not a bad thing for a company to do this type of thing as more people will see it who might not be aware of the product. Loved hearing the questions and answers. Good to see Mason again. Good luck with the rest of your farm/dairy and take care.

Tried one of those a few times too. Never cared for the horsepower consumption that it took and then hard ground conditions. It just didn't do enough to justify running over it. I know depending on some sales people they don't necessarily call them a finishing tool either. But at least you guys got to try something and thanks for sharing it

Would've been interesting to see how that snazzy 1066 black stripe pulled it. I have a 1066 and a 1586 for big horses and they're about even HP wise. Tillage here is chisel plow on corn ground, moldboard on sod. Discs just bounce off the ground here with all the rocks. If you've seen Trinity Dairy's videos, that's a little worse than what I'm working with, LOL.

That machine appears to be doing a very nice job on the field where the stalks were baled. I wonder how well it would do if the stalks were still in the field or on an alfalfa field that you would take back to corn. I'm not saying it wouldn't work, in fact I am hoping it would. The reason being if you can make 1 pass and get a field in planting condition, that's pretty awesome. I know there are no till options, but I think putting some condition on the soil is pretty important for the micro biology. Then again I could be way off there too

I'd like to see a McFarlane Incite compared against it. In our conditions, our dirt, (Southwest Georgia), those vertical tills run ahead of a rip strip make a much more mellow strip to plant in and still leave some cover on top in drier conditions. Does a fair to good job knocking down terminated covers without incorporating too much. Also makes a cultivator pass plowing middles easier, tractor doesn't seem to want to drift as much, cultivator takes to the ground better. That said, it will make a field wash if you get a heavy rain at the wrong time. Good tool in certain situations, just not sure it justifies the price tag.

@@longshooter457 we generally pull it in C2. That puts us at about 6-6.5mph. I don’t know exactly how deep we run it but we do run it on the deep side. Depending on your gang angle it can just cut the cornstalks or turn them into the soil. Our 4440 is stock as far as power is concerned but it is weighted down good with rear weights and fluid in the tires.

I don't know why you would waste time/fuel/wear with that on ground like that when you own a late model Cyclo that would no till into that as is? The vertical tillage seemed to be on a kick around me when it came out. Neighbor had a Salford, a few others got in on it with other brands. At the time, no used was out there, nor small enough for the hp we had at the time. So we put one together out of an old Allis Disk Chisel about like the one you have. Used CFC turbo blades on the front, yetter VT disks on the chisel shanks, and added a tine basket and coil packer to the rear. There is a video of it floating around on youtube. It worked pretty well in heavy 200+ bu corn residue, but we found the same thing others found, VT works great for a few years, after that the residue doesn't break down quick enough, so you still have issues with it that have to be dealt with in other ways, so in the end it added no net gain. Most everyone else around me come to the same conclusions as well, more a fad than anything else. When it comes down to it, heavy residue requires MOVING dirt, no matter how you pretend to change the name of it.
