I could have used this in my back yard garden. I've been pulling out stones for a few decades, and always find more each spring. Actually sifted with hardware cloth down a foot, and STILL get more each year. The contractors who built the houses destroyed the topsoil, and in digging the cellar they just spread the subsoil with stones over the property and threw out grass seed. New England - we grow rocks!
My Grandfather bought an old rusted potato digger from a neighbor. After a month of part time cussing and oiling it was ready. It had a rod type web behind the digger blade. In that case the "rocks/taters" were the keepers. Removing this many stones might lead to flooding of the field. 😁

Lol, growing up, we pick a dozen or more wagon loads of rocks every spring. These days, even with a small 40 acre hobby farm, I still pick several loads. After reading your comment, I'd really like to take a swing at you. Nothing personal of course...🤣😉
@@mattiasdahlstrom2024 you're thinking of the very very old one but around the 50s they made it so that the PTO would turn a chain which turns a belt type of thing which digs the potatoes and lets the dirt go through then the potatoes just fall out of the back
@@Mik-mk8us We are quite fortunate. Our family farm, about 3200 acres owned and leased (in the Palouse region of Washington state), has very few rocks that would cause a problem for machinery. There are only about 25 - 30 acres total which can be a problem.

Great question! For farmers as they work the land up, to get ready to plant, rocks surface and can damage their machines, so they remove the stones to prevent this. Sometimes the rocks are removed and just dumped off to the side, where other times they are sold to different companies that use them for landscaping and different things.

Rocks in a garden is not a bad thing it helps to hold moisture keeps the dirt from packing so hard you can't grow anything and several other benefits that people just don't realize
If you have really good drainage on an a light, very sandy loam and you deep plow for full turn-over and you harrow a few times and everything is loose and very dry, why I bet this thing would work great. There's more to this than meets the eye. Just sayin'.
Those rocks are valuable. Landscapers pay good money for them and could offset the cost of renting the rock picking machine and diesel fuel go drive the tractor. Or sell them yourself and cut out the middleman.

Dont tractors that small have a gearbox? Thats what lets me load 1250KG in my 50 HP split window vw kombi and tow a 1000kg trailer. slowly of course and very slowly up hills :)
@Fred brandon 21 horsepowe, that would be my Jawa 350 two stroke with wife on back and two (small) kids in the sidecar? Also slow but with a smaller tooth primary sprocket. James Watt exaggerated how much work a real horse could do when he specified a horsepower so I wonder how farmers baled hay, plowed etc. With real horses or 10hp large steam engines Before the invention of huge tractors???
@Fred brandon Nope! A horsepower is a horsepower is a horsepower. Lies are just marketing bull like motor, drive and drawbar being just that, marketing B.S.
As you take harvest off land thr physical bulk of thr land is then reduced you have to put it back as muck or wotever its not doing this and using only liquid or and etc fertilizer will increase thr stones as thr land itself depletes
How I wish we had one of these when I was young. Stone picking was the hardest chore, especially since we had soily rock instead of rocky soil. :-)
I was just about to type that very thing :)
soil rock and in some places just a few inches pf ot before you hit bedrock
@@lukeconway3454 More stone chunks than actual soil (said in jest)
Lol I "soiled" myself reading your comment.

Some of those rocks didn’t seem large enough to be harvesting. They should replant them and let ‘‘em grow a bit.
Oh, Ben, you put a big smile on this old wrinkly face! Thanks for that!
I think they just forgot to fertilize them ! :-)

@@brianhanrahan7561 Yeah, but you still have to spit 'em out after you've sucked off all the flavor...
Man, that picker was picking up allot of rocks and stones in that field. Great job
Wish we had one growing up on our farm. I picked wagons and wagons upon wagons of stones every dang year.
They're like coons. After released a long distance away,
they come back.
What a smart machine! I love the minds that engineer such things.
It's a rip off of a potato harvester.
Awesome! If you can't find a use for those stones, pile them up and sell them by the ton. What a great machine.
Looks like a converted Lewis Mfg. "Scoopy" potato harvester from back in the day. Works really well for rocks!
@Fred brandon who is manufacturing them now.
The farmer I worked for uses a 1928 model of potato harvester works too good on rocks takes about 2 or 5 mins to fill a 5 gallon bucket

No need for CRAP music. Very well designed machine, especially the dump mechanism. Never saw the front blade. Like an old potato digger.
No need for CRAP volume control.
i would rather hear it and the tractor working
I turned it off first thing
Never work here in New Hampshire . We have rocks the size of VW's , lol . If we got rid of the rocks we wouldn't have anything left .
Can't wait to show this to the fellas next Sunday when we're picking stones.
Ive got those too. Rocks encrusted with sea shells and other fossils. Old sea bed from along time ago.
Dang imagine what climate change needed to drain an ocean like that
Ya, the flood.
When I was a boy on the farm we had three rock pickers, I believe now a days you call them teenagers
It needs a mirror mounted on the back of the chassis so you can see how full the hopper is.

Do the rocks grow back every year.
Do rocks grow
Unfortunately yes. At least that's been my experience...
I thought for a moment that was being used in Western Washington, where we've got miles & miles of glacial till with than many rocks & more...
Small stones play an important role in controlling voles and providing soil stability.
Those are glacial or river rock .....i agree. You dont want NO rocks, just fewer or smaller. I have shale, i simply brush hog them into pee gravel.
Florida, no rocks, just sand with a few roots. @@frenchfryfarmer436

No muddy dirt roads on that farm.
Frost pushes rocks to the surface so unless you're cutting down below the frost line you're going to have to repeat
It would take the Mother of All Tractors to pull a rock picker 36"+ deep to get below the frost line!!!
