Another entertaining and educational look into farming big country, The Case is an awesome piece of kit and the company is getting excellent coverage from you guys, perhaps they will part with the machines at a sensible discount, you have earned it. Happy mother’s day Mrs W.

She appreciates the shout out. Blessings

Robert Welker Mothers are often the glue that holds the family together, the hub of the wheel and teacher of manners and respect, she has done an exemplary job and deserves the credit, as do you sir. I follow a good few agricultural channels, this one is by far my favourite, not because of big shiny machinary, but because of the people....the channels videos are well presented and the editing is stitched together with a flair that takes time and skill. I wish you all a happy, healthy and profitable 2019.

[@DTRAX33]

Big Buds all day, simplicity is reliability. New is nice till it breaks. Love the videos. Great work....

[@spencergoulding6312]

DTRAX33, couldn’t agree more. Can’t swap a transmission in just a week in a new case, not cheep to run new equipment either, depending on the size

[@fynbo1007]

Nick, always remember you have the right to be exciting, because it’s your video and you are using the equipment, what other are thinking is their problem. Maybe they are jealous because they don’t have the chance to try this kind of equipment. Enjoy your excitement, no one the the right to decide what you think. Thank you for sharing your story, it’s a awesome tractor. God bless you and your family

Since I came into the interest in farming back in Farming Sim 13, the Quadtrac was the main vehicle in that one. Since then I always loved Quadtracs and still do! Probably one of the few tracked tractors that I like!

Wow that is awesome on so many levels ! Heavy machinery, aerial shots, old and new riding together etc. I love what you guys do.

[@Snowtruckdriver]

Very well done video Nick. As a Big Bud fan forever and a Deere man for a lifetime (Dad worked for John Deere before he started farming) I totally enjoy your channel. I'm medically disabled and retired but look forward to new Video every day from you guys. We used to pull seed potatoes out of Ronan back to Washington every spring. Keep up the good work. My wife even watches your videos with me.

[@ronjessie8194]

Before becoming interested in watching your videos I haven't had much contact with farming since 1963. Seeing the Quadtrac and the equipment I was raised on ( Farmall M ) now that would be old school and new school comparison. It's more like old school and science fiction. Just WOW.

[@peteparker7396]

Well Mr. Welker, I kept my word and didn’t mention that y’all were trying a drill out!! While you gentleman up north are planting we are getting ready to start thrashing some acres in Texas. Can’t wait to see the difference in stand and yield between rigs. Stay blessed!

[@RobertWelkerFarmerBob]

It's amazing that harvest is starting now in this hemisphere. You must know the CaseIH rep there. I'm assuming you are looking at a good yield this year.

[@peteparker7396]

Mr. Welker it looks really good! We have been blessed with a good winter and wet spring. We have been having some severe weather the last few days that have laid quite few acres over. We are row croppers, mainly cotton. And actually the closest Case IH dealer is 4 hours away. We are all green.

[@zfactortedzabel9267]

"I think I can get over the land bridge to plant the field, but can I get back over it to move on to the next field??" Nice video and the CIH red/black harmonizes well with the white/red/black of the Big Buds.

[@WelkerFarms]

Thanks Ted!

[@rwh1096]

I like big new shinny toys too. I think your biggest technological advance to the farm will be the drill if it all works out in the harvest. If you didnt already have big tractors in great condition then a new shinny quad trac would be practical. Great video...like that planter.

[@michaelowen1750]

It's win-win for all parties- they get cheap advertising- and you get to experience the technology and get the fields planted...

Midwest Siren Productions that quadtrac is nice but there’s no way it’ll still be running in 40 years like those Buds are. Wayyy too much crap to break.

[@patmancrowley8509]

Jay Lenno's Garage had a video on this Case IH 580. It was hugely impressive! A lot of great "facts" were given by the sales representative. One of the more interesting facts is that, with the tracks, there is 5 pounds per square inch exerted onto the soil through the tracks which means that you can use this even in wet fields. I am looking forward to this real-world demonstration.

[@robertg.9964]

Driving that Case is like celebrating Mother's Day. It's the "Mother of Tractors"!!

[@allenhrubes8598]

Hey Nick! New technology is SSOO cool. When I was farming here in Dawson County, Montana in the 1990's, I had a set of Minneapolis Moline drills (5-7 foot sections from the 1960's) that were so ancient that the company no longer supplied parts for. I had to make the parts I had no access to. I finally pulled the plug and got a Concord air drill (28 feet wide hoe drill with 12 inch spacing) and a pull between air cart...man was that nice!!😊 I went from a Model T to a Lamborghini Gallardo car and I was in heaven. Glad you guys had the chance to experience new technology first-hand. Thanks for sharing your seeding season with us Nick...take care.

[@oldfinnishfarmer]

Definitely the best demo of any Case equipment out there! Amazing tracktor and amazing drill. Hope you’ll get of of those some day 👍🏻

Like comparison you are doing with new tech of planting . I bet the BIG BUDS will power that new drill just FINE !

[@ryanloughren7839]

james west probably not enough hydraulic power to run the individual downforce on each packer, would have to run an atom jet hydraulic assist pump for that. That’s the main reason we don’t run an independent opener drill

If you have ever farmed, you understand what he meant about the increased MPH. Even a 1 MPH difference makes a huge time difference for the worker depending on the acres that have to be covered of course. Great video Nick, thanks for posting!

[@WelkerFarms]

At 60 ft seeding 8 mph it is the same as a 90ft hoe drill at 5 mph. So that one disc can almost do as much as our two hoe drills.

[@maxpower9499]

@@WelkerFarms Fields need to be pretty smooth for 8. We did lots of 7 1/2 to 8 when we got one, but have worked our way back down to 5 or 6 after finding our stands weren't as good as we'd thought. Slow and steady wins the race, unless you're short on moisture and fighting to get it in before it drys out. They are more forgiving to a heavy rain and having to replant or rotary hoe.

[@captainobvious2472]

I farm 2 small grape vineyards (30 acres and 6 acres) so I have never even seen this equipment before. It is very interesting to learn about this stuff. Maybe one of these days I will upload some of my grape farming videos.

[@farmingnodak]

I have a feeling you'll like the results from the big case drill. They have their pros and cons vs John Deere drills, but once we went from a hoe drill to a SDX drill in 2010 we've never looked back. They can put down a massive amount of down pressure, but have to be mindful yet not to overdue it based upon seeding depth and conditions not to push dirt or have the caster wheels lift off the ground, or it will cause premature damage to the drill. Fantastic video as always!

[@MrDuggie1]

Just what I needed a Welkers farm video to watch 🙂

[@paulpence8895]

Gona take a sharp pencil to work those numbers... From the CaseIH web site, I added the few options I observed in the video, like the PTO, 6 remotes, duals and the conveyor on the cart etc... 580 QT - $635, 000 3555 TBT Cart - $198,000 PDD 500 60' 10" spaced Drill - $223,000 Doesnt get any closer to a cool $MILLION than that!!! Walkin money right Nick!!! hahah

[@boomerang379]

Paul Pence that’s the list price. Nobody ever buys one for that. With discounts and incentives added in you can easily take $100 to $150k off of that number. Still though, that’s a lot of cash for something that is less reliable than their Big Buds and definitely a lot more complicated to work on.

[@boomerang379]

Alfred E Neuman don’t think for a minute that it isn’t already being done. Not building their own so much as modifying the more modern ones with less crap in them to break down. There’s a 600 HD in Arkansas that’s had the IVECO engine removed and replaced with a QSX Cummins which is a third of the price to rebuild and a lot easier to work on since it is epa emissions free.

Throw a 3/8 shim between your shank and shank holder on every shank that runs in wheel tracks, that’ll get rid of your problem of the wheel tracks going in shallow. Looking forward to seeing the side by side results in emergence!

[@tbonemc2118]

My old man used to have a saying that you have to live a long time with the bad decisions you make in life and I think it's applicable to farm machinery. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Case but that's a lot of money to pay for something so you have to get it right. There is a heck of a lot of moving parts in the tracks on the Case opposed to just four axels on the Bud. That extra height probably won't get under your low slung power lines either. You would be able to tow a grain bin but that means you have an extra person on the payroll. Decisions decisions. I'm just glad you're making them.

[@boomerang379]

I’ve put thousands of hours on the new ones in my precision land leveling business... CaseIH 600 and 620’s HD wheeled not Quadtrac and most recently a 540 CVT. They’re nice and comfortable with all the modern conveniences but... they’re too complicated to work on and will never last 40 plus years like your Buds have. Please don’t ever get rid of your Buds... update them with higher capacity hydraulic pumps and maybe with Tier 2 QSK 19 Cummins or C18 Cats but never ever trade them for anything new. The emissions junk alone is a nightmare to deal with on the new ones.

[@LiIAxe]

Ah, my cuz has 2 of em, a 620 and a 420 or something like that, they are beautiful machines sometimes they can get a little squirmy when you turn and hit a bump or so but overall they are great. The sound is actually not that that bad for how big of a machine they are, I love them, they look very nice 👍🏼Air drill seems very big lol. It’s just crazy to see these 2 very different machines pair up against each other, that just shows you how much tech has came today. Crazy amounts of power!!! And if you noticed, I think the Quadtrac runs a little better than the Big Bud lol, cleaner. and I can’t believe what they did with that control arm! I was in one and that control arm I couldn’t stop staring at!! Basically that’s kinda your “auto steer” and speed. That’s crazy how you can do part seeding and part not! But overall love em all, especially the articulating kinds, nice work guys, keep on planting 👍🏼

[@raincoast2396]

Seeing yield differences between the older equipment vs the new equipment would be cool. Would you consider that Case IH setup if yields were greatly improved?

[@halbritt]

I was watching the live stream when this arrived and the Case IH rep was on board. I believe they mentioned this setup ran about $750k for the tractor and the drill. They'd have to improve yield by about 165k bushels to have that tractor pay for itself. So, probably not.

[@RobertWelkerFarmerBob]

The case didn't know. Nick just followed where the new furrows were.

[@freisdairyllc6898]

Depending on size, one track puts down more of a footprint than all eight tires do combined. The traction is amazing, you can get the power to the ground. Down side is one track costs as much as two tires.

[@HartungFamilyFarms]

Cool stuff nick! Those quad tracs are good machines! I was hoping you got a try a CVX as that’s a newer transmission that they have out. But really cool to see the different drill technologies. Being from Iowa, never really see air drills ever
