    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!

    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!

      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!

      ​@@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 👍🍻

    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.

    • @bigtractorpower

    • @toledojeeper2932
      @toledojeeper2932 Год назад

      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.
