  • Today we use a V-Ripper from Dad's cousin to break up the hard pan at the main farm. The 4640 had plenty of horsepower, but not quite enough traction.

    We just got our own 8235r the 24th of August and love it so far bought it at a farm auction. Couple minor issues with is but from what we’ve heard normal ones for the r’s but can’t wait to use it during wheat planting. Upgraded from an 8130.

  • @robertreznik9330
    @robertreznik9330 7 лет назад +2

    I used to have a 7 shank back in the 70's and 80's. You have the upper link too short making the outside more shallow. If you check the furrow and allow for loose soil you can measure for real.

  • @Bazza1973ify
    @Bazza1973ify 7 лет назад +1

    In a V configuration, they're easier to pull as opposed to straight, what it does need though is wings on the bottom on either side of the points, which then lifts & breaks the subsoil, but saying that, you may struggle to pull 5 legs with that tractor depending how compacted the land is.

      Jan Kotze not if they ran it correctly. You can tell they are ripping incorrectly because of just how fast that tractor is running. I would be surprised if they are getting 10"-12" into the ground. Gauge wheels should be removed allowing the Ripper frame to be just a few inches above the ground.

He was also making some pretty tight turns and you can see the center ripper bent from maybe that. If he was doing this right, the speed should have been half of what was shown and the ripper frame practically touching the ground. In a hurry.

    I spent my summers on the - now defunct - family farm, and have had a soft spot for farming and farmers ever since (to the point that I spend obscene amounts of time in Farming Sim and other similar games), and your videos always make me happy and relaxed. Except perhaps when you weren't sure if you were going to make enough to pay off your loan, but I really appreciate hearing about those details too. Can't stop watching, so don't stop posting :).
    Question: Is there a technical reason for using subsoilers, rippers and various tillers, rather than more "traditional" (moldboard) ploughs? I'm obviously not up to date on modern farming techniques, but I'm curious as to why this seems to have changed since I was a kid.

    Ryan, one thing we don't talk about much is tile. Is there much tiled ground in your area, or is there not much benefit. Here (SW ONT.) nearly every acre is tiled. some better than others but constantly upgrading old clay tile with new plastic and closer together. My farm is kinda rolly-polly for SW ont. but some of my older tile are not 21 inches deep. You can tell your in an area with good natural drainage because you will not see many ditches. A systematically tiled farm needs an outlet, that's why we have wall to wall ditches. Wise farmers here say "You pay for tile whether you have them or not " meaning loss of yield more then pays for a tile loan. Tell us clay farmers about tile in your area. I wish I had your soil.

    Should leave a test strip. with growing alfalfa and chisel plowing I can't see hardpan an issue. But be interesting and no stones there.

    u might have noticed that it´s not all the way in the ground so 21 is probably wrong

      +ReolSPro We measured the depth that the dirt was running against the bar, not to the depth of the gauge wheels.

    • @matthewmccune
      @matthewmccune 7 лет назад +6

      yes, but the dirt was bouncing 4-6 inches above the depth level. we usually measure by stopping in the field with the ripper all the way in. then shoved or kick the dirt back level, mark the shank and lift. then measure

      Matt Mccune you are right , this tractor will never pull a 5 shank ripper 21" deep . Looks like it's about ten to me

    In the uk its know as a subsoiler

    • @grussingfarms
      @grussingfarms 7 лет назад

      jamescarrick10 a subsoiler and a ripper are two different things the subsoiler does not destroy the top soil it just tears up below the topsoil the ripper just rips up the ground

      So it has a different effect? Or is a subsoiler just a 'cleaner' version, as it leaves no visible traces?

    • @grussingfarms
      @grussingfarms 7 лет назад

      kladpapier it does have a different effect the subsoiler does not desturbes the top soil while the ripped does

      other way around my friend.... Subsoilers have winged feet, breaking not only the hard pan but also breakaing up the top of the ground and the blades on them are thick and straight, a ripper is just a curved blade slicing through the ground to break up the compaction layer. Go to google and type in subsoiler and 5 shank vripper. You'll see the difference. Subsoilers are much more effect at their job, however, rippers are used in case of chisel or moldboard plowing that follows after the ripping as the tractors tends to follow the tracks of a subsoiler cuase a complete mess and curve in the plowing.

    why not attach a propane heated airdrill and let hot dry sand fill the cracks?

    why you are not using a plow ?

    • @bifftannen2503
      @bifftannen2503 7 лет назад +2

      They just want to break up compaction. You don't want the subsoil coming up. A plow is only good for up to 8 inches

    • @ArnieD17
      @ArnieD17 7 лет назад +2

      A moldboard plow, even a chisel plow, doesn't go as deep as a ripper and get under the compaction layer. Ideally what is desired is to get an inch or two below the compaction layer which tend to be depending on soil type as much as 14 inches deep. Moldboard plows don't fracture the soil they shear it.

    • @MatthewHoag77
      @MatthewHoag77 7 лет назад +3

      They use a chisel plow on a regular basis. A moldboard plow would actually make the hard pan worse, not to mention increase the chance of erosion on the hilly terrain they farm.

      They want to break up compaction, not create more.
