- Matt, Kelly, and Andy have to perform an emergency welding repair on the grain buggy after a cracked axe support is found. A good friend offers to let Matt borrow some big equipment to solve his hardpan issues. After a real late night, the crew at Griggs Farms start to find some big corn yields.

Rippin’ and tearin’
Thank you for taking the time to film the video
One of the best skills a farmer can have is welding. I am talking in the field in the rain and mud in the dead of night kind of welding skill. You never know with equipment when or where something will break.
We run a 5 shank Case 2500 3pt ripper behind a Magnum 250 ahead of corn every year. You’d be surprised at the compaction that occurs naturally and just from harvest and planting each year.
You need to get new 715 quadtrac for that ripper
Another exc explanation - this time on ripping. Thanks
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!

Hello all fellow drivers. Wishing you all good health and peace
Now we talking everyone’s not use to red power Matt and it’s okay 😂😂
Love what you are doing. Maybe no-till should mean not tilling EVERY year, maybe every 4th or 5th. Might give the soil with the better organics a chance to drop down and get the poorer soil to come up to increase its organic content. Either way, you are definitely my favorite farming channel to watch.
Soil stratification! Which it can cause nutrient stratification
Come an demo the Deere someday
Dear but it do have a chip
We run a 5 shank on case steiger 9380 and we've had spots where it stops dead but i remember back in 2013 we leased a 350hd case steiger and a 7 shank we were ripping frozen ground with that thing
In the past when we could not pull a ripper very well we flipped up the two outside shanks,make a seven shank a five shank,we could go faster with less slippage,covered acers in almost the same amount of time with less stress and fuel on the equipment
I'm doing the same with a 5 shank v-ripper. Pulling it with a ford 8830 and can't hardly pull it much over 3.5-4 mph. I found a lot of corn roots in spots that only went down 3-4 inches and just flatten out. Farm hasn't been worked since early 90s. Didn't have nothing but sage grass and briars until 2 years ago. I would have thought compaction would have been gone but it definitely isn't.
I run a blue jet 5 shank in-line 3 pt with a case ih 7140 always run mine ahead of corn. I think your new hollands could handle a ripper like that. You can find them around for 4K to 6k park it on the farm if you need to rip 50 to 100 acres a year that are getting hard no big deal and you don’t have much invested i run mine about 10 to 12 inches deep I know some guys go 14 to 16 inches but I have never seen the benefit and it is harder on tractors and fuel economy. I retired the chisel plow much easier on the ground do these areas every two three years you will see a benefit
I run the same ripper. about 5k investment, replaced tips and a few shear bolts.
Would be interesting if you could map the ground speed of the ripper and overlay compared to yield map for possible correlation of compaction with yield.
No need to map. I know the worst spots and it definitely pulled harder. The good spots it just breezed right on through
67-44 and Pioneer 1870 are the big yielders here in eastern nc
Eastern nc here too. We get good averages on axis seed
Unfortunately 1870 no longer available for us. I really liked it
On my dads sandy light land we use P1847. It’s has a lot of flex and we plant around 23k usually
@@clintlanier8534 1847 has more top end but doesn’t have the stress tolerance of 1870 in our opinion. See our crop tour video from last year to see the comparison in a drought
I would be shocked if the ripper didn't give you a yield boost
The ripper should do you some good. They usually do in our area
We need another video
We are working 12-14 hour days at the moment. We have worked 16 days straight. Unfortunately we just do not have the time right now.
👍
Can't wait to see the yield boost next year. If it helps is it something that you would consider doing every so often to try keep the yields up. Just curious i know you don't like doing tillage.
Hopefully this is a one time deal and then keep the soil right with something growing 12 months out of the year
🦾🦾
We need another video with more corn harvest 😂😩
hey looking at that to my left at about 8 or so that flat plate is cracked
When you plow your fields, do you get less weeds?
No
I have a bin control system similar to your’s. Have you had any issues with 22% corn with just air? Do you fill the bin completely? Thanks
No problems yet but we also have a long enough period of good drying weather before it gets cold. Yes I fill them up
We’re in NC 5 miles south of I 40 in the middle of the state. We have enough days. I’ve never put over 19% in them before. Thank you for your input.
if you dont see a difference in yields on ripped ground i will pay for the fuel that is some tough ground we have in places in mo out here gumbo jet black you dont want to be on it wet you can make bricks out of it i ripped some of mine low low mf1135 5 shank talk about slow but it did the trick good luck
Do you guys dry your corn and other crops with just the fans on your bins?
Yes just the fans
@@griggsfarmsllc how long do you guys usually have to run them? I see you put some 18-20% moisture corn in the bins.
@@RouthFarms corn will be dry by end of November
Tow motor need oil?
That’s the fan hitting the shroud
Slow down
