The Official Farming Thread...

I know that I am old. But check out JJns. YouTube in Canada. They are still running the L2 Gleaners which we ran here back in the early eighty's. Also Dirt grain steel YouTube, as they are running three L2's plus one one on steel tracks.

My uncle has a M Gleaner has a 15’ bean head & 6 row corn head. Gleaners are all he & Grandad have ever had.
My buddy that I graduated high school with has two 680 Deeres with 40’ grain tables & 12 row folding heads, he just bought a M gleaner with a 16’ table & 6 row corn head to open up fields with, run off smaller fields & terrace channels. He grew running Gleaners also.

The first machine Dad had was a 750 Massey Ferguson.

Couple trail cam pictures of planting cover crop rye in the bean stubble. Hope we get enough rain to get it up before Christmas.

Did you get a new rig?

Well I still have the other one. The forks are new on this one. I still feed with the old one. She doesn’t like to crank when it’s this cold. It’s been in the teens for a few days. Today is 20s. I just put the forks on to move the bales closer.

ground is frozen so it was a good day to go grab some

Didn't see any dirt on the loader so thought it was real new. Same cold here. Got the axles out of our agco tractor to fix a brake leak right now.

Depends. Too many damn wires on all the new stuff. Old stuff. Well I’m a red kinda guy I guess.
At this point I don’t care really. They’re all limited by electronics that you have to call a service tech for. It gets old.

Loaded question for sure. The agco we have is a SAME from Italy. We beat the chit out of it and it has served us well but it has an SLH air cooled diesel. Starts easy even near zero degrees. But it's loud! I'd take a UR1 Zetor any day over the agco. We had a bunch of AC tractors so I kind of lean orange. Only experience I have with new tractors is our compact LS. So far it's a solid machine.


I'd love to get a 7710 Ford open station though!

Top dressing wheat around here. Most of it is barely up. Been really dry.

Fertilizer is so expensive, that I'm planning to just use nitrogen after the first cutting.

Don't both of those brands have tractors from like 5+ other manufacturers that all wear their stickers?

 

[Hedgerow]

I just got a new one..

The heat works well.. the little 4 cylinder Cummins “of Asia”, runs like a singer sewing machine..

It was about time to replace breaks in my 4030 before they get too worn down.
