I spent hundreds of hours plowing with 8, 9 and 10 bottom plows. Glad we have retired the plows, however this was a video and reminded me of the good old days!
That’s a serious operation. Didn’t even know they grew potatoes in Wisconsin. Great footage as always!
Potatoes tend to prefer a sandier, lighter soil type
Their is a lot of potatoes grown in Wisconsin
A lot of potatoes are grown in Wisconsin !!!!
@@adamalfredsson373 Yup lots of sandy soil here in central Wisconsin.
We still Plow with 12 bottom IH 800 and a 9250 Case IH and a 10 bottom IH 800 pulled buy a hot MFWD 5488. See a lot benefits of opening our soil up up here in central Saskatchewan. Besides the rocks. My mouth waters watching these guys plow and never seeing the trips go off! Haha. Nice iron they got there. And beautiful dirt. God Bless
We quit plowing 8 years ago. Only time we plowed before that was to terminate hay crop. Now we just notill beans in after first cut on the field we are terminating. You can barely give a plow away around here. Few tobacco guys still plow but most don't anymore. Thanks for the video
The IH 540 plow I have came from a potato farm & it does get used for my small potato patch. Probably going to keep it that way. You can grab the edge of any moldboard & wiggle them a couple inches in either direction. I'd say that farm got their money's worth from that plow. She's pooped!! Amazingly, it still does a good job & will be put to work once the ground is dry. Regards!
Thank you for the video. I have never seen what all went into planting potatoes. Learned something new today!
Love to see the plowing. As part of a potato farm in Michigan we love seeing the farms in other parts of the country
Thank you from France.
Different types of crop farming like this is always great to see as are Steigers on tires.
I enjoy getting to features all types of farming. I filmed a 580 Steiger on duals recently. Normally I find Quadtracs. It is cool seeing tires.
Wish we still Farming days like this,and no Def,
It's not the end of the world. There are thousands of tractors out there that are pre def. Take the 40, 50 , and 55 series John Deeres for example. So many of these tractors are in great condition and all are working to beat hell. All tractors and combines manufactured before 1996, are pre def, have NO diesel particulate filter and all are Tier '0' emissions. The 40, 50, and 55 series were all built prior to 1996. Also, a lot of guys have rebuilt tractors manufactured prior to 1996, and you might as well say, they remanufactured them to as close to manufacturers original specifications as much as possible. A lot of these tractors come up for sale on the internet---SO- cheer up!
Great video. I like the potato planter. I have never seen one before. Other than me as a child planting potatoes because mom told me to. Thanks for sharing the show. I did enjoy plowing years ago. It's was slow but fun.
Cool video, I have never seen potatoes planted on a large scale like that, as they are not grown in Southern Ohio. I remember plowing as a kid, with a Deere 4440.
DANG!! thats a lotta FRIES !!
Or a lot of vodka.
Love the Red equipment!
It’s Red Power all the way 👍👍
What a plow, never knew they had a combination!! Very cool
They work well set up this way for one pas tillage for potatoes.
@@bigtractorpower hi so they plant the potato's straight into the (what we in the UK would call a seedbed) soil just ploughed. Here it would be deep ridged and destoned then planted, good to see it being done a different way, obviously the stones are dealt with at lifting time somehow, no wonder potato's are so expensive 👍🍻
Hello! Awesome scenery! Big operation!
Thank you for watching Luis.
@@bigtractorpower 👌
Good video, love information on the equipment. I planted 100 pounds of potatoes with my jubilee Ford tractor.
Awesome Steiger power!
My favourite! Love STEIGER's! Nice vid! Cheers
Great Video,love to them digging those potatoes
Thank you
We did a little moldboard plowing this past fall. Turned down corn stalks with a 5-16 IH 720 hitched to a 2290 Case.
Very nice plowing team.
We still do some plowing. We have multiple Oliver plows from a 1 bottom to a 4 bottom that we pull with our Oliver, White or Massey Ferguson tractors. This year we only plowed one small field so I used my 1945 Oliver 60 and an Oliver No. 100 2 bottom plow 😆 it would look like a toy beside these big boys but we were having fun.
Go Oliver. I am an Oliver fan. I grew up by a farm that ran 15 Oliver tractors at one time from an 88 to a 1755. Today they still have a 1750 but run a variety of John Deere tractors.
That ground worked up beautifully. Do you know how many acres they plant potatoes in? Nice to see how we get our potatoes. 😊👍🏻
Never seen a plow towing something like that that was interesting
Adding the Brillion Pulverizers makes a nice one pass tillage seed bed ahead of the potato planter.
Amazing video
Thank you for watching.
Great to see a nice plowing team😉👍 I think that growing potatoes is very interesting👍👍
Great video Jason. Nobody plows fields here in north central Indiana anymore.
Good idea
Why ?
@@MarXer-q1z lots of notill and disk chisel
So cool...great video!!
Great vídeo Jason.
Thank you for watching.
Howdy bigtractorpower love the plow video
FYI. The tractors hold 300 gallons. At $5.00 per gallon, that’s $1500 per day. Compared to $2.50 per gallon, $750 per day. Wonder why your food costs are rising?
*SARCASM MODE*
At least people aren’t getting their feelings hurt on Twitter. That’s what’s really important.
Food cost going up is mainly due to the processors . Farmers only receive a market price from the processors , that price can go up or down . The market prices don’t change when fuel prices for farmers go up .
We grew tomatoes and the contract prices actually dropped $10 a ton between 1979 and 1983 but fuel , equipment , and labor cost went up .
To combat that farmers just have to improve efficiency.
This brought back “fun” memories of sitting in a dark, dank, dusty basement cutting potatoes, and an occasional finger, for seed.
good
Hope you go back and get coverage of the harvest
Stay to tuned for the harvest this fall.
awesome footage, odd they werent using autosteer, set an offset and yer good, i'm currently looking for a good 8 to 10 bottom with coulters for my AC8550
I use to love to plow when I was z a kid on our farm in Maryland
What tractor and plow did you run?
We used a 400 farnall
Awesome
We plow using 3 10-18 Blanchat plows made in Harper Ks. We plow our wheat ground every other year.
Very interesting. Do you plow to reduce diesel carry over? What tractors do you pull them with?
Is it hard to buy Reversible plows in the US? Because I see they still use the old moldboardplough which for us here in France is “old fashioned”
There are some here, but hey weren't that popular. What there is, is mostly IH & John Deere. If there are any Kverneland reversibles left, it would only be a handful. Regards!
Awsome video ❤
Does the farmer need to rotate any other crops with the potatoes?
No DEF on these tractors!
Tesla Semis en route to keep fuel costs manageable while offering an order of magnitude improvement in Farm Logistics both on and off. Consumers going pure BEV a game changer for Farm economics going on forever now in the USA as well and Austrailia as well/too. Wait until what Brazil produces starts showing up along the US Gulf Coast and Florida as well.
Must be nice to be " rockless" . I remember picking rocks in the 70s and I would actually dream that I was picking rocks in my sleep. LOL. Upstate NY.
It's not rockless there. Stones all over, which is why the majority of the potato harvesters ran in Wisconsin have rock separators on them. The rock gets worse the farther north you get in the state.
@@johnschomburg5003 LOL, there's not one rock that I see ,you obviously don't know what a rock is.And you have never been where I was PICKING ROCKS. SO , STFU. PS. NOT SO BRIGHT, the rocks where I came from wouldn't be getting picked up by a potato harvester, oh and yes ... I also worked on a potato harvester.
My dad taught me how to plow when I was 14 for the farmer I worked for in High School he always marked the field 18 rows off ends and sides and thur the whole field to have even head lands then dad showed me how to plow a field around starting at the fence working towards the center then plow the corners out
Thank you for sharing. Those were great days in farming. Plowing was a true craft in tillage. In the case of these Steigers use gps to make perfect passes all mapped out across the field. What tractor and plow did you run back then?
@@bigtractorpower IH 1026 Turbo/Hydro with IH 5 bottom plow then a 1086 and a 3588 2+2 with a 6 bottom plow
👍👍
👏👏👍👍👌👌🚜🚜
surely waste alot of time turning,wouldnt a big reversible plough on land be more efficent like here in uk
Hello from France. I don't understand why American farmer don't work with reversible plow like French, or European farmer ? It's a big mistery for me !
The cost and dealer availability are 2 big factors.
Use what they got or go buy something new just because some clown in France doesn’t understand.
Pług zagonowy jest mniej awaryjny od obracanego ,jeden typ lemieszy odkładni itp. z nawigacją na dużych polach minusy zagonu się neutralizują ,tańszy w zakupie ,można znaleźć używany a oszczędności przeznaczyć na inne cele
Great operation but a swing or flip plough is 50%+ more effective. Gregoire-Besson or Lemken manufacture 12 furrow + sizes
50% more efficient ❓❓ 🙄 🧐 🤦🏻♂️ 🤷🏻♂️ Gotta see that done‼️ 🙋🏻♂️
@@jimstepan3038 Used it for years, flip or turn ploughs go back on and forth on the same furrow like a chisel, conventional ploughs spentvmost of its time going around in ever increasing circles and then youbstill have hollow furrows where your acerage connects ,In Europe and in my area South Africa we got rid of conventional ploughs in early nineties
@@ericsmith1453 , the ONLY advantage I can see is the elimination of ridges from striking out lands, and the gullys called dead furrows !!
That 50% reduction in time for a roll-over plow to plow a large field floors me !! The time it takes to make the loop to turn big roll-over plow around on each head land would average out to nearly the same on both styles .. I've plowed many acres with a 14 bottom one-way plow and I can't even imagine reducing the total time by 50% ‼️ 🤦🏻♂️ 🤷🏻♂️ 🙋🏻♂️
I didn't realize potatoes were grown commercially in WI
Wisconsin is third for potato production in the nation. Approximately 65000 acres grown annually.
👍👍👍 🤎🤎🤎 ✌✌✌ 💚💚💚 thank you ................
me to
Burns brothers
Central sands area?
Why are some farmers still plowing? Is it the depth for potatoes that necessitates it? With ripping and high speed disc harrows a moldboard seems inefficient. Someone educate me
Plows loosen and turn the soil in a way a ripper does not. It gives the depth needed vs a high speed disk. This type of tillage allows for the tubers to sprout and grow well.
@bigtractorpower thank you! You explained it in the video but I was watching it the first time without sound while the wife was talking! Lol!
We also plow before planting tomatoes . Reduces the weeds as well as preparing a better tomato bed .
Working in Zambia Africa looks like.
Good video.
Thank you for watching.
