    Why do you want the compaction in your fields when you do so much to avoid compaction
    I'm not a farmer so I don't understand

    • @WelkerFarms
      @WelkerFarms  2 года назад +101

      Excellent question!
      Two reasons but primarily one. First and most importantly is to mash the rocks and dirt clumps down so when harvest comes we will have a smooth surface to run our headers low without worrying about beating up our combines with rocks. Peas and most pulse crops are short in nature and we have to harvest pretty low. Second is it helps compact the seed and soil which improves germination. We don't like too much compaction but a little is good.

    • @georgedavidson1221
      @georgedavidson1221 2 года назад +20

      There is close to zero soil compaction. Pound rocks down and give the seeds a better seed bed

    • @royscarbrough3589
      @royscarbrough3589 2 года назад +15

      Compressing the soil from top to bottom is bad. Flattening the top layer ensuring seed to soil contact is necessary. The roller spreads the weight out evenly and does compaction where it is needed for the seed bed. If a tractor gets stuck or something runs in the same spot repeatedly it compresses down deep, slowly water and nutrient movements and stunts/stops plant growth. Blessings

    • @samwest9444
      @samwest9444 2 года назад +8

      The ground PSI of a roller doesn’t cause significant compaction. Heavy machines on the other hand do cause quite a bit of compaction.

    • @jasonrathgeber5999
      @jasonrathgeber5999 2 года назад +8

      We roll peas, lentils and also the wheat. When you are cutting right on the ground you don't bring in rocks or to much dirt.
      Wheat is good to roll just incase here is Sask we get an early snow or bad lodging from the wind makes it so much easier to combine without worrying about putting the header in the dirt

    The cleaner you all built is really paying you back in the farm operation. Great machine. Helps you all get projects done.
    Good puns Bob!!!!
    Always like your puns.
    Somebody tried to put a “wrench” in the works. But you caught it.
    The roller you are doing demo on is huge. Believe you said 80 foot. Now that is a big roller and horsepower to pull it. Good to hear that wiggles is coming out to help run the demo roller.
    That will eat up the ground fast. Nice machine. Looking forward to some feedback from you on this rollłer.
    Guess about it for now.
    You all take care and be safe.
    Looking forward to the next video.
    Thanks for everything.

    The 454 running on gas with some diesel fuel caused me to think way back when my father was working on their family farm. He said that they would run their farm tractor on gas and when it was warmed up, they had a device to add diesel to the gasoline when the tractor was running. They had the idea that the tractor had more power. That was in Saskatchewan. Farming sure has changed from the good ole days. I cannot check any of the details because my grandfather and my father are no longer on this earth. Of course, when the stories were being told, we often rolled our eyes and figured, here we go . . . with another story. 😊

We found our hn 250 sitting in a fence row about 5 years ago while do a drain tile job . We received the tractor as part of the payment for the job . It had a bad motor and the transmission needed some attention. We had the block gone through at our local engine shop and We tuned it up now it produces a little over 350hp . We have a neighboring farm just south of us that runs 2 large big buds like your 600 . Around here you just don't see many of them .
