The lost art of plowing....I have a 2023 Kubota L2501DT, i use a 2 bottom 16inch plow (ford 101 high speed). i plowed 5 acres with it with no problem. there is a thing called center of draft for a plow. when you have it set right yes it pulls better. set plows level right and left when in the ferro. set top link to depth, with 16 inch plow it should be 7 to 8 inches. people say plows pull hard is because they don't know how to set them up... i live in Tennessee were the ground is like concrete! setting the plows are the trick.👍

I learned how to wrestle from an Olympic gold medalist in wrestling. His motto was. “ If you are solid on knowing your basics, you will find success in everything you do. Try trick stuff and a lack of understanding what you’re doing. That road to success is going to be rough”. Simply setting your plow the right way, makes life so much easier. Lol. Know the basics. To many people these days overthinking and over complicating the simple things. I love the, Just buy a bigger tractor ones.

A couple adjustments I didn’t hear you mention. When your wheel is in the furrow you need to adjust your right link arm height so the plow sits level side to side. When your plow is adjusted properly it should sit level front to back and side to side when in the furrow. Worn shares do make it hard for sure. Another issue I think you’ll fight is setting the plow on your cross shaft. Those rear tires are quite wide for plowing. To get a consistent nice finish you need to set your plow towards the right wheel until both bottoms are plowing the same width. But in doing that, if the plow tracks too far off the center line it will pull really hard. That plow should really only require about 35-40hp to pull when adjusted properly. I pull a 2x13in plow with my 37hp massey Ferguson 135 easily

You don't have Draft Control. Only position control. Draft Control is available on the bigger models like my MX 6000 and the Grand L's. Draft Control will sense the "Draft" or the amount of "pull" of the implement and control the depth automatically.

Kubota's are made to work! There's really no such thing as over working the tractor. It either pulls the implement or not! The hydro has an oil cooler to protect the transmission. The reason hydrostatic transmissions fail is tractor owners don't change the transmission oil and filters!

@jeremydavis2595 Год назад
​​@@Lackieestatesfarmhat's what I'm saying as soon as I saw read that. I don't think you could even make one of those plows go 18" deep for one. Mouldboard plows are designed to cut at a depth that is slightly more than half their cut width. I can get them to go about 2" deeper than half their width and that's it. So a 14" Ferguson plow would max out at around 9" deep, maybe 10" in light soil at most and that's a stretch.

In 1950, my step father bought a then new Allis Chalmers Model CA. It had 22.9 HP at the drawbar (tested), 10-24 tires and easily pulled a two bottom 14 inch plow. I wss 14 at the time and learned to drive with that tractor. We had the plow a two row disk, a two row cultivator and a snow plow blade. Neighbor added a new 53 Ford Golden Jubilee to his two 48 Ford Four cylinders, That BIG six couldn't keep up with the Allis pulling double gang (that's four six foot drags ganged together) 12 foot drags. I could actually pull them in third gear, but that was too fast for a decent job. I guess most of you folks don't remember those days.

That's not 'conventional wisdom'; it's modern compact tractor wisdom. Back when small tractors were still built to farm, a 23HP Ford 8N tractor was rated for 2 bottom plow. So was the 18HP John Deere M, the 19HP Allis Chalmers B, the 18HP Farmall C, and the even 13HP Case VA series! A modern Compact is definitely a much better all-around general-purpose homesteader tractor, but if you're just looking for a straight-up agricultural tractor to plow, cultivate, and mow you may actually be better off with a 70 year old lump of American iron. As long as you can afford the fuel...

I don't know about those Kubota tractors, but my John Deere automatically raises and lowers the plow according to the soil conditions and load on the draft links. It's called draft control. Raising and lowering the plow by hand is called depth control. My tractor does not bog down because the draft control will raise the plow without me touching anything. I can also disable draft control with one lever that has several settings allowing me to choice the amount of draft control I want.

I thought the nitrogen-fixing properties of clover was due to the nodules on the roots of the plant, so ploughing the green tops into the ground does nor really add any nitrogen, just a little green manure or humus.
@PineyGroveHomestead
@PineyGroveHomestead Год назад
You're not wrong. Here is the textbook answer that I would never be able to recite on camera! How does the nitrogen get over into the grass? The legume is able to use this nitrogen to grow, but the grass surrounding the clover plant does not have access to that nitrogen. The grass can get that nitrogen through an indirect process. As the legume grows, producing new leaves and roots, there is the constant death and replacement of roots, root hairs, and leaves. As these plant parts break down in the soil, the nitrogen in these parts is released into the soil, then becoming available to the grass for uptake and use in growth. The nitrogen transfer is due to legume plants dying and the nitrogen being recycled.

Great video. I use a L4060 Grand L Kubota to farm hay. It drives a Krone F130 4x4 (130 mm) round baler. The bales are very tight, weigh more than 4x5 bales I was buying. The tractor does power out when the baler is close to being full and going uphill, just need to downshift to low range, otherwise it bales quite well in medium range around 5 mph. Is it ideal? Certainly not but it keeps me in good quailty hay and now I have more control over my own destiny.

I have an L 3540, 35hp. she pulls a 3 bottom reversible plough to full depth in our very stony rock hard clay soil. The mould boards are really old and the points very rounded. I pull out massive rocks, often 2ft x1ft x1ft. the big difference is I don't have hydrostatic drive. A friend bought a 40hp John Deere with hydrostatic drive. It was no match for my Kubota. I would never swap to hydrostatic.

Your right link arm is to short. That tractor should pull better than that with that 2 bottom. The plow is just not quite set right. You would see a big difference. At the end you got it right. Suprised it works the tractor that hard. Ford 8n would pull that plow all day with ease and its only 20hp. Unfortunate you don't have real draft control. Looks like you only 3 pt. lift lever. Have a 24hp compact tractor and i use it more than any of the rest. Heck i moved 90 ton of dirt in one week with it, and yes 90 ton. Don't ever underestimate a small tractor when you understand what you can do. That tractor you have will do about anything you need it to do even if takes longer.

No issues plowing with a Hydro unit. Gear would be best, but for an acre or less and allow the hyd oil to cool between passes and you are good. Rule of thumb is 1hp per in of moldboard. John Deere can pull as well… Plowing garden with John Deere #shorts ru-vid.com5aoT-kpJ-Iw?feature=share
