That’s an awesome shot at the end with the 50 series Oliver and Workhorse Series White! I think the Workhorse series was the ultimate combo of modern comforts combined with mechanical simplicity. No complex electronics to break down and bring things to a halt.
Ditto
Oliver and WFE built tractors to last the test of time.
@@bigtractorpower Absolutely 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@bigtractorpower Kind of like the old farmalls. I've got a whole fleet of 40 and 50 60 and 70 year old farmalls and I have a 14-year-old McCormick and a 4-year-old Case IH and they're good tractors but I look at them and I just shake my head because there's just so much to go wrong an electric and so on so many things to break I just can't see them lasting like the old timers
That 9410 looks like it would fall over! Never really seen it without duals or trips.
Awesome video!
The 9410R does well. This 9R is on a large grain farm. The farm milks a few cows and chops about 150 acres. They 24 row planters and 12 row combines. The dairy uses a few 90 hp tractors with loaders. The farm uses 4wds on the grain side. So there is tractor in between to chop. For 150 acres there is no need to buy a tractor to run the chopper so the 9410R does it each year. .
Yea the 9410 is tipsy without her duals
Having grown up on a family farming, chopping corn was my favorite time of year, the smell of the fresh chopped corn as well as digging in to the silage Pyle on cold winter morning and seeing the steam rise as well as the smell brings back fond memories. It just was a great way to grow up.
Chopping is one of my favorite things to film.
I like any forage harvesting videos. Takes me back 25 years ago when I was working at the feedyard. We ran 3-5488s and 2-7240s with 2 row Hesston choppers. We always loaded trucks. Never pulled a wagon behind the chopper.
Very cool line up. How did you open the fields with out a wagon?
@@bigtractorpower We had 2 Field Queen box choppers.
In this video, my favorite combo is the White 195 with the New Holland FP230 harvester. That White 195 is like almost brand new. This farmer has taken excellent care of it and its approximately 30 years old.
The Work Horse series was a stand out for WFE.
Cool to see a traction king doing PTO work
👍👍👍
My favorite thing about farming. The noise of the chopper the blower sending the silage up the pipe. Just awesome.
That whine is a great sound.
Always nice to see an Allis Chalmers
Definitely. I am always looking for AC tractors.
That 9410R looks ready to tip over ... I would keep the duals on the left side 😁
This farm has chopped this way for years with a 9330 and 9410R. The tractor rides and handles well. It is a large grain farm that runs a 24 row planter and 12 row combines. They milk cows as well. The dairy side uses 90 hp loader tractors and grain side uses 4wds. There is not a middle fwa tractor and for 150 acres of corn no need to spend money on a fwa model. The 9410R has pto so it gets the chopping job.
I think I need to add a 195 white to my collection. That was a sweet old girl
The 4690 clip at the beginning was pretty awesome. On our farm we use two different combos we have a 2390 case that we run our two choppers with. We use our new Holland 900 chopper when chopping hay and then use our new Holland fp230 for corn.
Very cool. Growing up my neighbor ran a 4 row New Holland 1600 on a 4690. In 1992 they went to a 900 3 row on a JD 4455. Now they are all grain with A Steiger 370 AFS Connect and 335. they ran that 900 until 2016 when they stopped having cows. New Holland makes a good chopper.
Love watching the classic big tractors still at work
👍👍
I liked the Traction King and the AGCO White with the Dion chopper... great video Jason!
Thank you for watching.
My bosses 2 years ago used a John Deere 7800 with a 740 Classic loader to run a John Deere 3975 forage harvester to chop 3 rows of corn at a time with John Deere 716A forage wagons. They bagged the feed with a bagger and a John Deere 4430 to operate the bagger. They used all of this equipment last year to chop alfalfa and I ran a MacDon 9300 swather with a 16 ft header to swath the alfalfa.
Very nice. 716A wagons are very cool.
We ran an IH 830 silage chopper. My dad bought it new in 1979 when he bought the new 1086. The spout was controlled with electronics which was awesome compared to the old one that had hand cranks. We pulled the 830 with the 1086, 5088 and even had the 2+2 3588 on it in a wet year.
SP forage harvesters are some of my favorite machines to watch, but there's something that is extremely satisfying about watching a tractor and pull type working. That NH working with the Case Magnum near the start had some serious tire wear issues going on there.
The pull types are less and less by the year. I like getting to feature them.
Another great Big Tractor Power video!! Enjoy watching all of them in action!! We used a John Deere tractor 4640 pulled a 3940 John Deere chopper!! Always did a great job for us!!
Very nice chopping team with a 4640. What type of forage wagons did you run?
@@bigtractorpower John Deere, Knight and H S wagons!!
Thanks for the great video Jason. It is a treat to see other farms still using pull type choppers. Most of the farms in our area have gone to hiring custom forage harvesters with self propelled cutters. We still chop our own hay and corn using a New Holland TG210 and New Holland 892 silage chopper and a Gehl high dump wagon.
Wow awesome chopping team. I have an owners manual on the Gehl dump wagon but have never seen one. It would be cool to film your chopping team. Drop me an email at toytractortimes@gmail.com
A 900 230 or 240 works better
Damn 892...we used those. If ya need any gearboxes,fwd reversers, fans, spouts,knife drums or parts let me know. We got a couple.
Its always my favorite time of year when they start chopping corn, by far my favorite thing to watch
Forage harvesting is one of my favorite jobs to see on the farm.
My favorite was the Challenger with the Dion chopper. As modern as pull type forage harvesting gets!
That really surprised me, being in the northeast everyone with top of the line equipment like that has gone to self propelled or hiring out chopping to self propelled custom outfits. Interesting to say the least!
Pretty cool to see all the Dion choppers.
It is quite the set up.
Well Jason I can’t say I personally have one favourite I just like them all
I ❤'D the End with the Field Boss & Olivia!
That 8710 white/agco was just givener lol. 👌
2 awesome finds IMO, the JOHN DEERE outfits. 4455 dualed up with mint new JD chopper and classic JD wagon...& the 7810 outfit looks like its off a JD brochure 🤤
The 7810, 3950 and F12 are right out of a 2000 John Deere forage brochure. The Victor F12 was a great historical find.
Enjoyed the video 👍 it was good to see the 8010 AC and the white tractors
I’m always looking for AC tractors. 👍👍
Our current setup is an 1850 Oliver and 555 IH chopper... old but works!
Very very cool.
Love pull type chopping, bought myself a parked old NH880 that im gonna restore and use.
That was such a cool video Jason. Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you for watching. Forage harvesters are one of my favorites.
Seeing a pull type chopper at work is pretty cool😁👍
Well done👍👍
It’s one of my favorite farm machines.
We used a IH 966 Hydro with a New Holland flail chopper and high lift dump wagon on the dairy farm I worked on 40 years ago. Did some custom corn cultivation with the 966 also.
Great to see some Agri Speed hitches. Worth every penny.
They definitely speed up the harvest.
This 9410R looks crazy in this narrow set up.
4wds were very common in the late 70’s and early 80’s for chopping. It was cool finding this 9R being used to chop like they did 40-50 years ago before self propelled choppers gained the market share they have today.
Love the white workhorse!
End of an era tractor for WFE. Solid machine.
Great video! Seeing fewer of the pull types around.
A good used self propelled sells for less than a new pull type. It’s hard not go self propelled these days.
I think all were interesting. Thanks for sharing, enjoyed watching! Making moo chew .
Thank you for watching.
Love the compilation videos. Thank you. Happy Independence weekend.
I like them all. Growing up we used a Ford 8000 on a Gehl 600 which was later traded for a Gehl 1000.
Very nice. My neighbor growing up chopped with a Ford 9000 and Hesston forage harvester.
Oh gosh yes. Love these forage harvesters buddy!!
Lots of variety 👍👍. Thank you for watching.
thanks for another great video keep making more!!!!!
Thank you for watching.
Great Video, I don't have a favourite, and am not involved in agriculture, thanks for sharing
Great video all around, but loved the Magnum and Scorpion the best ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The Scorpion is cool.
I injoyed seeing the dump buggy `s something that I never seen before.
Dump wagons first came to the market in the 1970’s. They reduce the need for multiple wagons and keep the harvest moving by quickly unloading in a truck which can travel to the silo or bunk to unload faster than a wagon.
Realy enjoyed and many thanks for sharing. Do more sometime if possible 👍
Thank you for watching. I think I will have a manure spreader compilation video next.
Nice video. Really liked the 4690 at the beginning and the White Workhorses at the end. Could have used a Ford in the video though, lol. We run a Ford Tw-5 series 2 or Ford 8730 on a 790 New Holland chopper. Haul loads with a Ford 6600 and Ford 5610 series 2. Ford Tw-5 series 1 or Case 970 on the blower. We also run a New Idea 803c Uni with a 6200 chopper, mostly used for chopping corn. I would love to have a Tw-35 and a New Holland Fp 230/240.
I agree on Ford 100%. Unfortunately I have not been able to film one on a forage harvester yet. I do have a New Holland 2100, 1900, FX40 and an FR500 filmed.
I worked on many New Holland pull type forage harvesters back in the 80’s at the dealership. These are videos from many years ago or are there still farmers that use them? It’s all S.P. choppers around here. Nice video, thanks!
As always Jason my favorite tractors are the green and Yellow
Three good Deere’s in this one.
Back in the days my dad had a nuffield 4/65 with a case forager can't remember the model number but i can still recall the whisteling of the knives chopping the corn .
Very cool. That whistle is a great harvest sound.
What an awesome video! Seems like some of the tractors were overkill for chopping but great assortment of equipment highlighted. Thank you!
I agree that some tractors were overkill. But back in the 80s we (and probably most other farms) were underpowered and the 1086s and 4440s that a lot of farmers had were maxed out all the time. Then the 90s came and since then we all wanted more HP. Now most of us are probably overpowered than under.
We run a magnum 235 and new holland fp230. 4 dion 16' wagons. A new holland t6 and t5 running wagons and a t7 on bagger and blower. My favorite combo is the first one.
Very cool line up.
Great variety tractors, a lot of dion choppers and surprised that there wasn't more New Holland and Gehl.
Dion is gaining a good following. Gehl ceased hay and forage production on May 1, 2006 so there will be less and less to see over time. The New Holland FP240 is the market leader right now. John Deere stopped making pull type choppers in 2019. Deere offers a green Dion now.
@@bigtractorpower It was good to see them all. Thanks
I enjoyed the allis Chalmers 8010 with the gehl chopper my neighbor had a allis just like it and a allis front wheel drive and they used the gehl chopper and gehl silage wagon with a versatile 875 I believe to chop their alfalfa and corn with they used the allis Chalmers 8010 for blowing the silage up into the a.o.Smith harvester and to spread liquid manure.
Very nice chopping team. The 875 would be a cool chopper tractor to see in action.
Good old days we chop John deer 4020 deer 38 two row chopper had internal nation 110 ten silage wagons had 56 blower 3020 hook two blower pull wagon in nother 3020
Great video thanks 👍👍
Thank you for watching.
My favorite setup was the 4455 with the John Deere chopper and wagon
That is a very cool chopping team.
Those side dump wagons look like they would tip over
I like the JD 4555 set up. GO BTP 💪
The duals are cool.
Another great video.
Thank you for watching
02:55That looks very funny in 'narrow gauge' format
When we chopped our own feed we had a john deere 8420 with a 3975 chopper
Very nice.
When the family dairy farm was in operation for filling silos had the 730 case diesel hooked up to a new Holland blower, while our Massey Ferguson 285 hooked up to the fox chopper with a one row corn an hay/straw head two forage wagons was a H&S an a Lindsay brand. While using Case international 595 tractor.
Nice harvest team.
@@bigtractorpower 👍🏾
on our farm we ran a John Deere 3950 with a 1066 and two old gehl chopper boxes and IH number 56 blower powered by a 986
Very nice.
Great vídeo
Thank you for watching.
We have been running a JD 8770 on a Dion. Just bought a 9420 with power shift to put on it. Thinking it should keep our truckers busy.
That is awesome. I would like to film that.
we had a john deere 2950 with a new holland 718 cutter.. and a oliver 1755 with a new holland 708 mounted chopper.
Very cool.
Like the videos, just never understand why something like this mentions only dairy cattle. We filled out 1200 head of beef cattle a year, 600 feeders winter and spring, and 600 more summer and fall. Not to mention other types of livestock but the cattle ate mostly silage from our 12 Steve Silos, or what we needed to put on the ground over and under plastic. They’re probably were not more than 10 dairy farmers, and they were quite small operations, within 50 mi.² of us in north central Illinois in the 40s, 50s, 60s and into the early 70s. We build out at the right time even having the opportunity to actually “sell“ all the stave silos built by “Freeport silo Company“ of Illinois, the Clay unloading equipment and auger systems, the Kohl’s blowers, Fox choppers, all the self unloading wagons and so much more all in one big sale. Glad we sold it when we did. Sold Equipment spring of 72.
All the choppers in this video were on dairy farms. I do have a video filmed but not posted yet with chopping on a 5,000 head cattle farm. It would have been neat to see your operation.
Nice video mate
Thank you for watching.
We chopped for years with an 8430 articulated John Deere we would take the duals off for corn like the other guys in the video do. We now chop with.a 7700 and 10 row head. Some thing change but some stay the same still making silage
Neat on the 8430. I always like seeing 4wds chopping. They were a common chopping choice in the 80’s where I grew up. In my home town one farm uses a JD 8650, another a Case 4690, another a White 4-150 and two others International 2+2s.
I’m a big fan of the 4690 right outta the gates
😁👍👍
We got 3 case pumas: a 180 on the harvester and a 150 and 130 on the trailers plus the mx 100 on the blower for the silo.
Very cool.
@@bigtractorpower I got foutage of them on my channel plus an international 684 and Case 1666 combine
👍👍
Chopped corn with an SAME Deluxe 130, and chopped grass silage with an IH 886, using a New Holland 782 chopper
Very very cool.
We run a 7210R JD on a FP230 and Miller pro high dump wagon
Very nice.
When I grew up the neighbor ran a case 7220 on the chopper and the pile too. We used a 1086 to pull the wagon's. The 1086 was never allowed on the chopper bc they chopped marsh corn
At 9:00 in the video I seen there was a black lab running along side the chopper. Reminds me of the black lab that went through the fox 3000 i was chopping with many years ago.
Oh no I am sorry to hear that. That would be an awful thing.
We use a 8940 CIH with a F41 Dion chopper with a 700 Richardton dump wagon.
Very nice.
The Rich 700 is hard to beat.
Got one of those on the farm that just sits. I'd like to see some one put her to work
Why was that Case 4690 unhooked off the manure pump it was probably hooked too?
Both of the whites were cool
I hope we get some tractor pulled forage harvesters in Farming Simulator 22 soon.
That would be cool.
Hi BTP New Holland 770 and Ford 6610 FWD very common in central Mexico forage harvest with tractors
Very cool Ford New Holland harvest team. 👍👍
When we chopped silage. We had a New Holland TL100 and a Hesston I can't remember the number chopper
Very nice chopping team.
The 7810 and 8010 a-c. Ran both tractors like then both.
Both great tractors.
We use a 8670 Massey Ferguson and New Holland fp 240.
Very nice. I am hoping to catch an 8732S on a New Holland 1600 next year.
Hello! Very fine video.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate you watching and commenting on so many BTP videos.
@@bigtractorpower 👌😊
That 9R is a bit overkill
They only chop 150 acres a year. This is primarily a grain farm and uses 4wds for every thing. The 9R is the smallest tractor to offer a pto to run the chopper. They do not have a need to purchase 2wd tractor to chop so few acres. It would be it’s only job.
@@bigtractorpower oh lol
Greetings bigtractorpower from burley idaho 👍😁💪
Thank you Carlos.
What model # was the tricycle Oliver at the end of the video and was it a gas burner??? Thanks
It is an Oliver 1650.
Questions please is that a different type of corn 1 because it is so tall and 2 is there any cobs on there thank you
There are different varieties for silage. In pure grain corn you want all the plants energy going into the cob producing as much corn kernels as possible. In silage you want a good ear of corn but also as many tons of plant material so the e Gregg is spit between the grain and plant.
@@bigtractorpower Thank you
Best ones were side loading choppers or ones that pulled a dump cart this way the chopper doesn't have to leave the feild to unload....
They are good combinations for sure.
I like the Case but, I wonder why they changed the colors?
Tenneco to parent company of Case acquired International Harvester’s farm line and the new company became Case IH in 1985. IH red was chosen as the new company’s color.
@@bigtractorpower With a little research, it seems that not even J. I. Case Corporate, could agree on a color. But I do have to admit that the two tone color era is my favorite.
Our 4690 case is getting its engine over hauled this winter
👍👍
The JD 9410 on the pull type is the joke of the year hahahahahaha
It’s not a joke. It belongs to a large grain farm that also maintains a dairy heard. They use some 90 Hp loader tractors on the dairy and a few 4wds on the grain side for 24 row planters and big grain carts. They chop 150 acres of corn so there is no need to spend money on a 200 hp tractor to run the chopper. They just use the 9410R for about 3 days of chopping a year.
@@bigtractorpower I knew there was a legit reason behind that, but it just hit me in the face, didn't want to offend anyone, I'm sorry
where is dion choppers located at.
Dion manufactures forage harvesters, forage wagons and silo blowers in Boisbriand, Quebec. In the late 1990’s Dion also manufactured choppers, wagons and blowers for AGCO’s Hesston and New Idea brands. From 2006 -2019 Dion built silo blowers for AGCO’s Massey Ferguson brand. Starting in 2019 bargain building a forage harvester for John Deere in JD’s Frontier brand green and silver colors. Dion and New Holland are the only companies building pull type forage harvesters in North America. New Holland build Case IH’s forage harvester.
I use 3950 Deere
👍👍
Used hydro 100 nh718 2 row chopped corn only many years
Very cool chopping team.
The best tractor is the 7810. The best harvestor is the new holland fp230
👍👍
I agree that one of the best 100hp tractors ever made was a 7810 but it was blue and said Ford on it !!! 😂
John Deere 4440 and Gehl chopper
Cool chopping team.
👏👏👏👍👍👍💪💪🚜🚜👌👌🇧🇷
😁👍👍
john deere 4455 best tractor. too bad they quit making them.
The 4455 is definitely one of the great John Deere tractors.
I thought the John Deere 7810 was 175 hp
Maybe on engine power but not pto.
And I thought it was silage.
Forage harvesting creates silage as the end product.
