INTERNATIONAL 5088 Tractor Chopping Soybean Straw

[@ScottPykare]

Old school internationals getting it done!!👍👍Thanks Jason.

I'm sneezing up a storm and my eyes are watering watching this

[@bigtractorpower]

It is a dusty process for sure.

[@desross2002]

Hahahahahahahaha same here

[@mt.hopemeadows]

I love the 88 series tractors.

[@greglambert1265]

Great vid! I baled soybean straw two years ago with a 1966 ford 5000 pulling a nh 570 baler and picked and stacked with a 1976 ih 886 pulling a nh 1034 stack wagon. People around me loved the straw as a less expensive alternative to wheat straw.

[@Ticky66MN]

Just love seeing the classic IH working on a small farm today. Thank you!

[@leslieholman3121]

Nice video and it's awesome to see old school farmers using the old tractors that were made to last.

[@bigtractorpower]

It’s a cool IH line up.

[@leslieholman3121]

@@bigtractorpower yes it is, but when I said about old tractors that were made to last built back in the 50s to the mid 80s, just about every Nort American brand in those times built stuff to last. Nowadays everything is obsolete by the time you have it paid for so you're stuck forever making payments. Sad times for Americans and Canadians since global corporations have taken control of our company's

[@atwoodca]

I enjoy these videos of older equipment very much. thanks BTP

[@mikekuhn6216]

We used to vacation in Green Lake Cty, WI in the 1980s. I remember driving around the area checking out the dairy farms and saw the farmers chopping wheat and oats straw for bedding. It was blown into dairy barns for storage, then used over the winter months for the cows. I was told that several barns in the area caught on fire during this process when a stone struck the blower blades and created an igniting spark. Your video on chopping bean straw was very interesting, and I enjoyed watching the old Farmall M pulling in loads. We farmed with a '49 M and I spent many hours on that tractor. Thanks for the memories.

[@2xKTfc]

Amazing iron. Classic tractors don't get old :) Bet the shower after that filming was the best thing in the world in that moment! Cheers :)

[@bigpapa9400]

Love it!!! First cab tractor I ever drove was a 5088!!!!

[@johnlay941]

I've never used soybean bedding when I ran my dairy operation, but I did grind corn cobs from a seed corn grower for bedding in free stalls. They were very hard to grind through the hammer mill, but the cows loved it!

[@SimonKL11]

The old ones getting the job done👍😉 great to see classic red machines😁👍

[@carlwolf4865]

Another great IH video !!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@MrLuke2623]

The 5088 was one of the first toy model tractors I built as a kid.

[@fordfarming7700]

I’ve baled bean stubbles for bedding but never thought to chill chop it I’d be afraid of rocks. But the beauty of farming is there’s no right or wrong way to do things, it’s whatever way is best for you!

[@pinesedgefarm1155]

Awesome footage, I've never seen soybean straw get chopped like that. I'm sure it makes nice bedding.

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍👍

[@scottstoner259]

Great video! Hope to see more small tractors on Big Tractor Power!

[@ikonseesmrno7300]

That was so nice, I'll have to watch it twice! Great video!

Good video Jason! I really like seeing these older tractors at work, especially the M. Cool stuff.

Nice to see the old girls doing their bit

[@paddyboy557]

Super video wish it was that dry here in Ireland 🇮🇪

[@kevinfox5068]

That's the typical type of farm in the UK , small combines and tractors, on the farm I worked we had three trailer's with turn tables which were an absolute pain around a farm yard especially if you had to reverse them, as we never had a tractor which could nose them into position, also when loaded the weight didn't go on the drive axle of the tractor so you didn't get maximum traction , the good old day's, give me this new equipment any day so you can really enjoy your farming. Great video, stay safe Regards Kevin Fox,England Essex

[@frankr.1594]

Nice to see red again

[@jrbpa5775]

Cheap way to bed but is itchy as heck to spread around. We used to chop corn stubble after the combine. Wasn’t easy to handle either but wasn’t near as itchy..... thx for the video !!!

[@stephenkeller6894]

Dad and I baled 1,400 small squares of soybean straw this fall with a Deutz Allis 7085 running a New Holland 315 baler. Also made 80 round bales with another 7085 running a New Holland 855 round baler. We have in the past forage chopped it for calf hutch bedding too. There seems to be a lot of complaints about using soybean straw but I like using it. Windrowing it outta the combine and not having to rake it is quite the difference maker on the amount of dirt/dust.

[@BirconuGaming]

Old school power. Nice video

Hi Jason, Very cool video 👍. It would be very nice if you could make a video about the 88 series history one day ☺️

Very nice red rig

[@scotta626]

Love those straight pipe tractors! Probably why I can’t hear as well today !

[@bryanG4020]

Good way to dull the knives down quickly on the chopper but makes great bedding tho!!

[@yoitzadam]

We don't harvest any soybeans but when we harvest corn, we started shelling some this year, then we use a flail chopper to chop all the corn stocks, then bale it and use it either for bedding for feed for the cows.

[@carterblann2290]

Man you gotta love these tractors. Don’t see many of them. I’ve always kinda liked the front of the tractor as well as the sides. Very nice find and good video.

[@bigtractorpower]

😁👍

[@dmc3742]

Oh man, making me itch just setting here watching it. The only thing itchier than soybean dust is maybe the dust that comes off of grain sorghum. 😝😝

[@nellsonstout7001]

I remember riding in one as a kid baling hay. Rode nice

[@chavellahudgins1271]

Good video

[@possleaholsteinspossbrofar8429]

We bale ours with a Kubota 5160 round baler pulled by a 7320 deere. Combine is a 9690 massey ferguson with 30' head. We use a mix of soybean and wheat straw. 1 to 1 ratio. Works great in our free stalls.

[@bigtractorpower]

Wow. Very cool to use a 9690.

[@tractoragriculture1352]

great 😍😍❤

[@red_power79]

For the first time in my life I small square baled 70 bales of bean straw with my 560 farmall diesel and a 24t john deere baler. I've never heard that baler pound that hard but it never missed a bale.

[@jameswest673]

To the old farmer, " why are you bailing that soybean stubble" " ole boy it beat the hell out a snowball"

[@AJmx2702001]

In my younger days we used to Do bean straw in small squares with an IH 574 gas pulling a McCormick 46 behind a 1460 and a 715

[@bradhickey5638]

equipment from that era was real farming. not all high tech and had driving skills not some computer doing it for you.

[@michaelpayne8163]

I like that farmall m shuttling thoes wagons. Nice setup though. I will say bean straw is the worst straw to use because it clumps together so easy but, we occasionally every few years used bean straw.

[@Blackwellll3066]

Cool video

[@brianl4310]

like watching the farm working not hearing the talking . lol

[@GMdrivingMOPARguy]

When I was a kid my dad had a 49 Farmall M. I remember thinking it was huge compared to our Ford 8N. Was always bummed because dad would never let me ride on it with him because it was dangerous.

[@andyhutch8262]

I did a lot of this type of work in the late 70s early 80s in the UK, didnt have the horse power thats here, I used a MF 188 multi power rated at 75 engine hp behind I pulled a Claas Jaguar forage harvester, at the rear of the forager was a hydraulic pick up hitch, after plenty of practice I soon hit the trailer drawbar ring every time, 50 acres a day was good going in a heavy crop of grass, when sun dropped below sky line I could see tractor silencer (muffler) glowing red hot!

[@raywilson800]

I would have enjoyed it more if you would have showed me where that straw was going.

[@tophauler8626]

old farm tractors don't die

[@piperdoug428]

I like to round bale soybean straw and let it weather a year then it becomes quite palatable to the cows

[@rogercarrico4975]

Round baled soybean straw for a neighbor. With his New Holland 850 chain baler he had one time.

[@cameronbeilke5908]

Rocks are the biggest issue when chopping soybean stubble for bedding. We had a neighbor blowing his into their barn and a rock sparked in the blower tube causing a fire. Their whole barn burnt down including some animals that they couldn’t get out in time. All neighbors switched to baling after that.

[@guydaubenspeck9206]

Well Jason we don't raise any beans here on our farm in Western Pennsylvania but we do a good bit of work with a bunch of old farmalls we do have a new seven McCormick and we have a 17 case ihcx no I'm sorry 75 c but we use a bunch of older stuff too m super h's 460 and we make hay with them we plant with them we do a good bit of work with those old farmalls you ever get out this way and want to take pictures let me know

[@jeremyfreeman717]

That is a very efficient way to burn a barn

[@wilsonandrade6246]

👍👍👍👍

[@TonyM132]

826 is supposed have red lower front side panels, just like all 856s do. Wonder why this one has white. Maybe they replaced some sheet metal with parts from a 706 or 806?

[@bigtractorpower]

Yes. I am not sure why it’s side panels are not red. At 50 years old it has most likely been repainted at some point.

[@chrisdee8199]

If they are wanting to bale that straw I wonder why they have the spreader running on the combine ?

[@jamesolson9423]

The farmall M was built from 1939 to 1951, not 1954. The Farmall M was replaced with the Farmall Super M in 1952. The Super M was built from 1952 to 1954, and was replaced by the Farmall 400 in 1955.

[@tjuniver990]

[@Willg-vg3tl]

Do they actually use thease old tractor's and methods still on this farm or was it just done and filmed for fun

[@dougschmitii6165]

I would say all the larger farms around me have older tractors around. They use them for odd jobs that doesn't require a brand new, 350 hp, fwa tractor. Jobs like feeding, spreading manure, mowing ditches, running augers and the like. They still have newer tractors for field work too.

BTP where are you? I haven't seen a new video in a few weeks- I'm an addict, and starting to go into withdrawals!

[@bigtractorpower]

I just posted a new video. I was very very sick for the past few weeks. I am getting better by the day. I will be posting a few videos now. Not everyday for at least a while but hopefully a few a week.

[@noahater5785]

Those wagons seem really heavy when full, that poor Farmall M is going to struggle if there's hills in between the field where the soybean straw came from, and its final destination, the barn where its being stored. I would have used a stronger tractor like John Deere's 8R or 9R series tractors (or similarly sized tractors from other manufacturers) if I had any lying around somewhere. If I needed to get the soybean straw back to to the barn in a hurry, I would have probably gone with a JCB Fastrac, those have a top speed of somewhere around 45 mph iirc

[@johnlee6054]

soybean residue is much lighter than green chopped corn or hay

[@whit4275]

I take it they have no rocks / stones? We can only bale soybean straw cause of the rocks.

[@bigtractorpower]

The field looks pretty stone free.

[@cameronbeilke5908]

Whit very important to use a land roller to pack the rocks down for this very reason. I grew up in central Wisconsin with fields that look like this one.

[@onionfriend9799]

Great video thanks for posting. Iv never been around soybean fields - wouldn’t here be a lot of dirt mixed in? I would think that would destroy the chopper knives 🤷‍♂️

[@cameronbeilke5908]

Onion Friend a lot of farmers who chop soybean straw for bedding will use a back-up chopper from their main alfalfa chopper for this very reason. Also sharp knives are not as important for bedding.
