Running Our 60ft Rotary Hoe Is Always A Good Time…

[@patrick-mccabe]

Always okay to have a mood LOL. Thanks for showing us the process.

Sun's out, gun's out!! ☀️💪

Hey Thomas, It sure does a good job.👍

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

Yes it does!

[@brianpohlman]

Looks like that's a standard clearance unit. My m&w 1815 Mt has long back arm's that make front and back gang wheels not overlap. Case 181 Mt us the same way

[@jazzerbyte]

We had a small one that pulled from the hitch instead of 3 point mount. It had links on front and back, so to transport on the road, you moved the hitch to the back and pulled it in reverse so it wouldn't tear up the roads.

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

That sound interesting!

[@SPR-777]

Thanks Thomas for the skinny on the rotary hoe. It was me that asked to see it working. Sorry it caused you despair. Lol Great video. Looks like an airplane when it’s partially winged up from a distance.

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

Not a problem Jason 😂 everybody needs to do stuff they don’t enjoy sometimes. Usually when I’m turning people driving by slow down to see what I’m even doing, thanks for watching!

[@greggergen9104]

Do you lift the wheels that go over the soybean plants?

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

No sir everything is left down

[@JoCoDeerandDuck]

Why not setup the ITEC to pickup and set down the wings for you? Just one less thing to do on the ends.

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

Good question, would make it much easier

[@Ticky66MN]

How were afforded the opportunity to have the Naxat on your farm?

[@djwheels66]

Does the rotary hoe end up tearing up any of the bean plants? It looks like it would take out everything in its path.

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

You do lose some crop but not everything

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

I'm glad organic farming doesn't use so much diesel, is fossil fuels to grow less than "conventional" age does with modern chemistry. Nice to know it's not polluting the air. And dust isn't causing any soil loss. Great job!

[@SPR-777]

Oh…. I see the Negative Nellies have showed up on this channel.

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

@@SPR-777 prove me wrong. Reduce carbon emissions, including what is released from the soil. The new buzz is "sequestration" in the soil. I'm just seeking where the balance is that can feed a nation of 300 million, but protect the planet. Age is always the problem for people who don't have to wonder what they are having for their next meal.

@@MorganOtt-ne1qj Are you a conventional farmer?? Or just a naysayer??

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

@@SPR-777 I work on a conventional operation, and ran my own for a few years. I have seen steady increase in yield and reduced cost per acre for the last 10 years. Almost all no-till, and erosion is also reduced. Prescribed nutrient application, chem program tuned to the problem, and less fuel used per acre because of that. The task at hand is to make more food from less people doing the raising, for more people doing the eating. Can you argue that? If you have a niche market, great. But I have been involved with Organic operations, and are familiar with others, and they have all failed. I sincerely wish you the best.

[@SPR-777]

@@MorganOtt-ne1qj I have been organic for 15 years and the Fehrs longer. I don’t see failure here or there. There’s always someone smarter than me. Have a great day.

That 8r is almost as nice as a 380 magnum 😂

[@jonpeterson9733]

so far it looks like the Nexat may have more success than the Tribine, even though both machines have dual engines, which you would think could be a liability. it's too early to tell on the Nexat, the Tribine on the other hand last I checked was a dead project, or the even more impressive farmer built Twin Rotor combine also a dead project. the Unimog that can now be bought as surplus sounded like a good idea to be a Swiss army knife of a truck, bucket loader, backhoe, etc., failed to do these tasks well. this machine on the other hand looks better thought out and designed. time will tell.

[@FehrsFarmingOrganic]

Time will tell for sure..
