I think I'm kinda addicted to this channel. LOVE seeing how this all works.

[@terrellfarms1]

She looks good behind that 4640 Ryan. I think your dad is going to be happy with his choice of planters. The individual row shut offs are probably save you guys more than it will most farmers due to the amount of point rows you have to deal with farming on the contours. Keep them planting videos coming.

[@robertreznik9330]

The savings in extra yield will be more than the seed saved. Your overlap has ears size down to below 2/10 lb grain per ear which is too small. A lot of stalks must be ear less at 60,000 plants per acre.

[@TheUncommonKIBBLES]

it will be interesting the first year with all the point rows..

[@OneCincyFarmer66]

This is my favorite video. Anytime I want to think about spring planting. I watch...

[@OneCincyFarmer66]

It’s that time of year to watch my intro to spring planting video!!

[@prkrngr27]

The drone footage is amazing! Keep up the great video-making.

[@robertreznik9330]

Looks like the operator is getting a workout. In my area of Texas under the Amarillo sky, sometimes rounds are 6 miles of auto steer. We bring extra bags of seed along to make it to the wagon. When the wife brings lunch I tell her the end I will be on.

[@PKuen]

Nice Video The 4640 looks awesome!!

[@gabewynne3025]

I love the 4640 it's cool that you put auto steer in it its a nice planter

[@kris7625]

You can put autosteer on your 4640 just get the Autotrac Universal 200 steering kit, it can work with your GS2 and 1800 display. We have one in our windrower and used to have one in one of our four wheel drives. They work awesome and aren't that expensive

[@ih1206]

Good looking setup. Glad to see its working out well for you.

[@williammorris3273]

I like ih

[@DesertDigger1]

Great drone footage.

[@tsint]

Such a beatiful tractor, old classic!

[@220nitro9]

Love it JD is best

[@PietschFarms]

Damn good lookin setup!

[@PrestigeWorldWidePWW]

Awesome planter. Wish I had one

[@rlashbrook6865]

That 4640 is a good horse.

[@karlbrohammer9105]

Plan on a Large JD / disc allows Dad to use the 82 on the 12 row planter. Katy bar the door for Ryan and Travis, Cheers

[@samuelmckinley6327]

Wow, Great Video!!! Thanks for explaining the row markers. I was just wondering because the first thing my Uncle did was take the row markers and trash wippers off. Mainly beacause of mud. Obviously you need row markers because of no auto steer but also you have alot of grass water ways.

[@timothyrux2718]

I heard the saying "If you ate today, thank a farmer", so thank you guys :)

[@penmaster615]

love the music in this video

[@bigjohnypoper]

You can get auto-steer on the 4640 too we have it on our 4455 and it works great

[@nickmeyer3101]

The 4640 is about 10 years older

[@stanhensley3082]

Isn't she pretty out in the field.I do mean the planter!Now,hope you have a great growing season.

[@mattphillips4260]

dang hope yall drew a blue print how that place was planted for the combine next fall

[@mikesrestoration]

What a great video !!!

[@leebryant5841]

I love these tractor videos

[@suzylarry1]

I am a city slicker. I still have not figured out how a farmer can make money when you "need" bigger equipment and have to travel 1-10 miles to plant , then spend lots of unproductive time driving between fields and home, Love the videos, I have more appreciation for Framers. THANK YOU

[@BenB526]

When you guys are ready to use the 8235R for planting with Autosteer, look up DigiFarm VBN for RTK!

[@alexandrafisher8598]

Ben B lol Polo today very

[@Farm550]

Nice Rig Wish we had row shutoffs! You could get a autotrack universal kit and run autosteer sf1 with that 1800 display I beleve if thats a starfire 3000 receiver its a lot more accurate than the 300 also make sure your on off times are correct or you will have skips and overlaps

[@northeastnebraskafarming117]

Hey Ryan just so you know theres this steering thing you can get put in undeneath the steering console sp you can have autosteer because we did it to our jd 8300 and 8100 and iv seen it done to the 4000 series also

[@rogerjennings5846]

Cool I did enjoy

[@griffinwiegert527]

Our 4430 handles our 12 row like a champ

[@jbmbanter]

There was a young person on this channel that was asking about the 'row marker.' I hope he sees this because it was a great demonstration of it working. I wondered what happens when you get to the edge of the field and only need to plant say 8 rows. Can the planter boxes on the extra rows be turned off individually to keep from planting or dropping the seeds in the grass? Since the planter doesn't seem to fold up the outer 4 rows then it seems that would be an issue. I've seen planters that will pick up and fold the outer rows back over the remaining ones in the middle. This planter does seem to turn around well without having to back up to get back in line. :)

[@HowFarmsWork]

+jbmbanter it has electric clutches, the rows still run, the seed just doesn't get picked up.

[@jbmbanter]

How Farms Work Very good because you were talking about seed savings and I knew that somehow that was accomplished without leaving the cab. Ole Dad wouldn't know what to do if you gave him the auto steer. Thanks for the video on the new planter and I watched with interest on how your Dad handled the fields that aren't square or rectangular. :)

[@bwtupper]

Hi, Ryan . . . I really enjoy your videos! If you put drain tile in the green strips, could you then farm the green strips?

[@bluemtnsman]

I think I can answer the question you posed,,, the green strips on these farms are meant to slow water runoff and cut down on stream pollution as well as washouts. If they were wet location, which I believe is what you are thinking, then the tile might be an option but a definite non option on their farms.

[@jaronkennedy7885]

you should do a video about all the different farms and whos they are and stuff

[@waterskiingfool]

Planter works good on the 46

[@ggggg6843]

Хорошая сеялка .

[@Cherryfarmboy60]

Sweet setup! I'm looking to buy a bigger tractor, around 130 hp.. Any suggestions Ryan? Seems like you have used several of that size

[@FermaEnache]

why you not plowing the grass strips from the field ?

[@jordanvinski3601]

Ryan, you added the trash cleaners to your new planter are they adjusted up or they purposely higher just for when there's trash they don't move much in yor videos.

[@ullibab]

Hey, Ryan:-) Nice seeder! How do you do your plant protection? Is the corn GMO, getting post-emergence glyphosate? Do you do your own spraying? Or does a contractor spray for you? Sry, Im just a curious european:/

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

I am not familiar with all of the new farm technology. That being said, do you need the row marker down if you are using GPS? Thanks, and keep up the awesome videos!

[@justlooking2013]

yes, yes I love it more more

[@Rikvdham]

is the gps pnly for the planter, or do you also use autosteer?

[@kevinwillis9126]

how much seed do you put down per meter?... Thanks for sharing Ryan.....

[@georgiaswampman4542]

nice video. Im sorry I just love that 4640. My favorite any day of the week.

[@Kllrkrtt309]

I love mine. Runs better after a rebuild than from the factory.

[@robertreznik9330]

Go drive a 8R JD with IVT and ILS, you will fall in love again.

[@williammorris3273]

I agree

[@williammorris3273]

I agrer

[@williammorris3273]

I agree

[@donalgeaney626]

How many acres do ye own in total I would really love to know

[@MarekLong]

What do you have your steering sensitivity set on

[@joelbriggs6382]

Is it taking time to get used to a bigger planter?

[@joshuamaynard5435]

How fast was he planting? Was it around 4.5 mph.

[@KingofStriker]

I was wondering when you were gonna realize the seeding video since the test run of new seeder. Have a awesome farming season. Q# Why is it that all I see is John Deere, why not a Case IH or New Holland?

[@BasementMinorities]

Weird to think this 2 months ago and it is already Travis on tippy toes tall.

[@remcoscholtmeijer3044]

do you still use the dji phantom 2 vision +?

[@ignasanchezl]

Holy crap man, level that soil.

[@PrestigeWorldWidePWW]

I think it looks pretty good

[@mitchellnennig6853]

Can you make a video about the 4640 greenstar

[@pa.heifergrower67]

Bulk seed totes next year ? New seed tender also.. you can save alot of money on seed that way.

[@dejanira2]

How often do you have to refill the "seed dispensers" ?

[@chasesblog]

dejanira2 depends on how much seed your putting out. We run a 1700 3 pt and I've gone 80 before on those same type of boxes

[@chrisbearden629]

would you mind showing and briefly talking about your drone?

[@JSquaredExpedited]

should do a video on how the gps works.

[@traceyosterlind14]

Some subtitles would be great. What are we looking at when you show the steering system, what is the green arm doing, how are the seeds planted in the ground, etc

[@italianbyblood1]

All of the questions you asked are fully explained in other videos. He does not want his videos to become overly repetitive .

[@AndersonFarms]

I think fwa would've been nice on that planter

[@HesselAnnema]

Now I understand why you benefit the Gps / seeder shut off. You have a lot off overlap at seeding the terrace. Over here we have a lot of square vields. With mostly 1 run with overlap so the benefit is small. at seeding.

[@f0rumrr]

Whats the purpose of those folding arms on the sides?

[@chilichambers8019]

To mark where you need to drive when you go back. You drive right on the line

[@louiskriel9984]

the 4640 dont have autosteer,that is the reason for the markers.

[@kazman500]

what is that arm extension at the side for?

[@dimduk]

It leaves a furrow for the farmer to follow on his next pass that is six rows over.

[@raymondaston4796]

no the long days start

[@northeastnebraskafarming117]

How Farms Work

[@rogerwilson9361]

I have a question of the wings still using them when you put GPS on the tractors.

[@lukebaumgartner1747]

GPS isn't auto steer. They still need to use markers to guide them on their next pass. GPS for them is to operate the row clutches.

[@rogerwilson9361]

Thank You, I though they had it with their GPS now I know different now, just though said they going use it that's bad excuse me Ryan and Dad and Travis.

[@lukebaumgartner1747]

roger wilson Yup! My uncle also has GPS for his 12 row case planter, and only uses it for row clutches. He most likely is getting auto-steer soon though. He really doesn't need it though haha, he already plants so straight it is hard to go down the middle of the field during harvest on the correct rows!

[@rogerwilson9361]

Luke Baumgrtner Yeah my dad could set a roll so good it always seem he wanted to best me and my brother lol He made look so easy feel man.

[@mandykal]

Can someone explain that arm that extends out what is that purpose?

[@alexrozsahegyi6561]

jUsT a ViSiToR the arm are so that when he finishes the row when he turns around he can line up the tractor on the middle of the line it creates to have the rows evenly spaced

[@mandykal]

Alex Rozsahegyi thank you! I'll tell you I've been watching his videos for 3 days... Makes me want to farm...

[@kluckfabrication5991]

Is there really need for row markers when you have gps?

[@Kllrkrtt309]

Yes, you have to follow it to get the correct row spacing. GPS doesn't steer for you.

[@kluckfabrication5991]

Well your correct but, you don't need the auto steer feature for the GPS alignment to work.. You can use gps to align you in the correct path.

[@kluckfabrication5991]

1lonelyfarmer has a video using the GPS without markers.

[@Kllrkrtt309]

+Kluck Fabrication yes, but a light bar doesn't work for end rows.

[@TJ-bk9vf]

if you dont have auto steer with the GPS then yes its much easier to follow a line in a dirt than a line on the monitor screen in my opinion.

[@jamesreardon618]

At 3:10 what is the thing that comes off the side and what does it do?

[@dansneyd4646]

James R it's a marker that shows you where to drive on your next run. it's exactly half the width of the planter, so as long as you drive straight down the marked line you won't leave a gap or have any over lap. He's only using it on the curved contours, he has sat nav for when he is going up and down in a straight line

[@justlooking2013]

Also you stated that the 46 didn't have auto steer. I saw a couple of time where the row marker were not down...

[@MrTrucker199]

gps

[@justlooking2013]

+MrTrucker199 he stated that the 46 did not have auto steer. That means they not not install the auto steering wheel for older tractors. My dad and I farm in Georgia.

[@justlooking2013]

+MrTrucker199 You can see the older steering wheel in the video, the GPS is for the planters row clutches

[@MrTrucker199]

the monitor inside tells you to steer left or right

[@MrTrucker199]

we run ih equipment and ours has a left and right.

[@ryanloouie6166]

Ryan how much does that 8R have? Im wondering. Im a Model toy tractor collecter.

[@ryanloouie6166]

OOPS I ASKED ABOUT A REAL TRACTOR my bad. How much horse power dows that 8000 Have?

[@gabewynne3025]

Excuse me not autosteer a computer system

[@ryanmcmillan7603]

But you say overkill is underrated

[@justlooking2013]

Why don't you guys plant entire farms full of one crop

[@diggermitch1]

this will sound like a very dumb question but what dose that side are do

[@andrewbrummer9539]

I know I'm 3 years late but it marks the center of the next pass,so basically he just lines the center of the tractor hood up with that mark and it plants straight with the other rows

[@brothersfarming9547]

should put the 8235r on that 12 row planter

[@lukevarel417]

Yes that defiantly would have been a better choice putting an old tractor with a newer implement just doesn't jive I still don't understand why they did that...

[@shanebyrne6424]

How much hp is needed for a beast like that

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

the 4640 is putting out 235 hp. it has the power but I wouldn't want the tractor any lighter.

[@TMcardinal5]

4640 does not put our over 200hp this is its power ratings you might be thinking of a 8235r PTO (claimed): 155 hp [115.6 kW] Drawbar (tested): 132.44 hp [98.8 kW] PTO (tested): 156.30 hp [116.6 kW]

[@Kllrkrtt309]

+TMcardinal5 OMG Ikr. 235 out of a 4640 is BS.

[@Kllrkrtt309]

That 4640 will handle a 16 row no problem.

[@TMcardinal5]

+BrettRidez we put a 4440 on a 16 row struggled but could do it then we put a 7810 on it and put the 4440 on a 12 row the 4640 could do 235hp if it had a diff engine or like 5 turbos

[@Elliswg]

What is the long arm on the end for.

[@jaywest4102]

Scratches a line to follow for next pass

[@Elliswg]

***** Thanks.

[@HesselAnnema]

Not deeded, if you use auto steer at the tractor. But quit handy to use if you want to drive on the right distance. For seeding

[@Kllrkrtt309]

+Hessel Annema auto steer is trash for planting. At least from my experience with it.

[@HesselAnnema]

I understand. you need DGPS and a tilt sensor for more precision

[@Kllrkrtt309]

You said row shut off, like row clutches?

[@Kllrkrtt309]

I know, he said shut off which had me a little confused. Was wondering if he meant to say row clutches.

[@Kllrkrtt309]

*****

[@firstname6208]

not sure of this model of corn planter, but the newer ones have DC motors on each row so the field mapping software can cut off individual rows where it was already planted. saves seed. precision farming eh.

[@matthewwoodbury91]

why do you have to put the markers down?

[@TMcardinal5]

so they have a line to follow for the next row the 4640 does not have auto steer

[@matthewwoodbury91]

+TMcardinal5 oh. I think he explained that in a different video. just couldn't remember

[@nellsonstout7001]

+TMcardinal5 people did just fine without autosteer for years. They still can

[@adamthompson9179]

just say to your dad you want a 300hp tractor for the disks before you put the 8235r on the planter

[@Kllrkrtt309]

Yeah, you need a bigger tractor if your planter was ever to get stuck.

[@gopherchoker]

Just get a atu 200 you can put it in almost any machine and autotrack with it www.deere.com/en_US/products/equipment/ag_management_solutions/guidance/autotrac_universal/autotrac_universal.page?

[@SouthSaskFarmer1]

4640 looks waaaaay better on that planter though lol just sayin

[@MultiPowerlin]

here in minnesota almost every farmer I see and know own 48 row planters thts a site In the field

[@AASparkChaser]

Must be sugar beets. Those are only 22" rows.

[@jenniferstevens1834]

dff couple's

[@two-strokesmoke7289]

Ten miles in any direction...........but, but the earth is curved?

[@agroacres6236]

First!!
