This is the only video in RUclips that someone explains how to plough opening is done. I’m a new farmer. I didn’t get exactly what pattern should I follow on the field so I don’t mess things up and make ditches. Of course I’m talking for good old non reversible ploughing. Thanks
Hi Mantequilla. Thank you for your comment: it is bad that there is not more information on the internet to help you. The easiest way to see how it is done is to be there when someone else is doing, but I realise this is not always possible. I practiced a bit on a local sandy beach, and when the tide came in it washed away all my mistakes. Not everyone has this luxury though. Ferguson produced a small book in the 1950's on ploughing using their ploughs, and it is the best written instruction I have seen. Just google 'Ferguson Mouldboard Plough Manual', there are usally a number of copies available. It is well worth every penny. Good luck!
@@stevehusband7651 thank you very much for the info. I’ll read the book. Keep making such informative videos in the future when you can. Young farmers around the world don’t have any experience or handbooks to get started in farming business. Most videos are more of a show of of the cool expensive tractor they got.
I moved from Ullapool 27 years ago, lovely area, my great grandmother was from Mellon Udrigal, she settled and raised a family in Durnamuck in Little Loch Broom , one of her daughters was a teacher in Scoraig school in the 30's
I love it! This is the perfect tool for doing swales and retain and infiltrate al rainwater that falls on the property to make it drought proof! The best thing would be to loosen the line first and then plough on swale into it. On contournof course, so the rainwater can sit flat in it and infiltrate slowly! I saw that on Heoff Lawtons canal and it is astonishing what he does to avoid droughts and to increase fertility.
