The Sumbitch tractor show was started in 2018 to raise funds for the fight against Alzheimer's disease. There is an estimated 5.8 million people living with Alzheimer's, and my Father-in-law was one. I'm just a guy from rural western New York, hoping to raise awareness for Alzheimer's and make people laugh in the process. New Videos every Sunday at 9am.
@@marvinmclachlan1395 Good luck getting started. We have 200 acres left and then some custom work to do. Looks like rain here mid week. Thanks for watching and the comments.
Wheat has been cut down here in Oklahoma for a while. Our harvest was rainy as well and has not rained since till this morning. Always enjoy your videos. Keep’em coming
S680 looking nice Tom! Bet it's nice having foldable extensions to close that grain tank up. Nice sample of wheat...Rotary combines are knowingly difficult to get a clean sample. Our wheat was early this year too...we started last Weds.
@@EDBZ28 Foldable bin extensions are very nice! We took a ride yesterday and only saw a couple fields partly cut, most up our way isn’t quite ready. Good luck finishing.
Ed real men still climb up and fold their auger and open and close their extensions 🤦♂️🤣 I look at it as part of my exercise program in the fall, climbing up and down to do it 🙄🤣 and I’m sure the new X series Deere combines with the double rotors do a really good job that’s the one thing I noticed with me New Holland CR with the double rotors. What a difference compared to my old S series with a single rotor.
@@TheGrumpyFarmer😂…a lot of the physical work on the farm that’s how I look at it. Real men don’t wear tight shorts and get on a bicycle for exercise 😆. “Mother Deere invents everything on their own!” HAAA
@@Thewaywefarm Sunday was the worst Sunday and Monday yesterday I saw the doctor now it's getting better and better probably had covid according to the doctor
nice video Tom and thanks for sharing. I've only tried no-tilling beans once about 10 years ago and slugs ate them. We won't no-till soybeans bc of slugs. We run VT over stalks in fall, then in spring broadcast dry fert over top then VT again and plant in 15" rows with target rate of 170k. I had to replant about 20 acres so far this year bc of crusting on clay ground.
yes they are getting ruffage that way. my grandpa mixed sweetcorn silage in with the dry food and the cows did good. also did the same for fattening lambs.
@@Thewaywefarm yeah not many farmers do it here either. its a little more labor intensive but a cheap way to dry it and a little safer feeding to cattle when its ground because they can digest it better and not over eat on it as easy. The harder thing though is keeping the rodents away. you need small hole mesh panel screens and a lot of cats and poisons.
We had a JD40 ran it several years back in 1970s. I thought it was a big improvement over TheJD 30 pull type sack tie combine. I eat and breathe a lot of dust back in the days. I don’t think I could stand it today at 71 years old. How are we still living after all that dusty conditions we were working in back then.
My Dad is 79 and still working with my brother every day, can’t imagine all the dust he’s consumed in all those years of dairy farming! Thanks for watching.
Do you have a cat climbing in the Rafters in your new barn in your video or do you have a raccoon climbing around up in your rafters when you’re pulling your tractors out?
Thanks Randy! With our stones we can’t go much over 4mph so units don’t bounce much. We also use furrow cruiser closing wheels, I highly recommend them. Thanks for watching.
That Gladiator makes such a nice, neat, uniform berm. The Unverferth we use and neighbors of ours use, makes kind of a lumpy mess and a large mound, by comparison. Does the Gladiator ever work the ground up lumpy? Maybe it's just our ground. Definitely been a challenging spring!
In certain conditions the Unverferth did a little better job but in most conditions the Gladiator really makes a beautiful berm. The more years you strip till the less lumpy the soil becomes. Troy and I couldn’t do what we do with conventional tillage because we don’t have the time.
Cant beat the older machinery. Simple and reliable. Bit like people nowadays. Bought a Massey 860 this year and doing great. Same quality sample as the neighbors Lexion for a fraction of the price
That’s probably the nicest looking 24T I’ve seen and the bales look great! We just sold our 24T this spring to take the temptation to make small bales away
My dad bought a JD 24T back in 69 and I ran it for about 5 years doing custom hay work back then. I had around 250k bales ran through it when it got to where it was having a lot of break downs and he decided to get a JD336 to replace it. Seeing the 24T running brings back some nice memories. Thanks and I hope you had a nice Memorial Day!
