One thing i would like to to know more about is the planter such as how is it driven, ground, hydraulic, electric row motors, etc and what king of meters they have and down force as well. Good videos
Great video, the tractor drivers today are spoiled, they don't have to get off the tractor now to pack up the equipment to put it in travel mode for the road, the sad thing is ,farms now have cut down on an awful lot of labour which is a shame. Kevin Fox United kingdom
Thank you for watching. The new machines do allot of automated work. They still require wrenching on. At the 3:39 mark the farmer is pulling away after adjusting two row units for 30 minutes. It took several tools and lots of time out of the cab. Bigger machines bigger problems sometimes.
How does the process work? A farmer invests in very high dollar equipment, but is the loan generally based on upcoming crop revenue? or land collateral? Each year?
Farm’s manage their operations in a variety of ways. Many do have an operating loan to buy seed, fertilizer, fuel etc... in the spring to put out a crop. Then the loan is repaid once the crop is harvested and sold in the fall.
it was the farm that had all the 9000 series tractors they were planting with. That particular farm did a lot of tillage and you explained because of there grain carts and etc packing the ground.@@bigtractorpower
That John Deere farm is about an hour from this New Holland farm. This New Holland farm chisel plows some of its ground and runs a field cultivator. It also uses a Great Plains Turbo Till on some ground. Then it also no-tills some fields like this one.
@@ZimFarm24 I have a T8.390 like this one but with wide rear fenders and wider front tires. The front tires on this one look like 480/70R34s and the rears are definitely 520/85R46s. Other common rears are 480/80R50 (same diameter, Group 48 height).
@@captaindee6130 yes agree thanks for that. I was specing two machine T8.380 and T8.435. Ended up going with 380 with 480R34 and 480R50 and the 435 with 480R34 and 520R46 tyres.
It uses a FPT engine which comes from Fiat Power Train. Fiat Owens IVECO and that’s the base engine used in most New Holland and Case IH machines today.
Not necessarily, Hutson a very large and quite popular dealership in the area is solely green and I’m guessing that has a lot to do with the amount of John Deere equipment in his videos. But as a whole I feel like all brands are well represented in western KY.
I like to mix it up and show all the brands. The last 9 BTP videos in a row were all John Deere features. The other brand fans were starting to get nervous. Watch for some blue, Orange, yellow and red for the next few videos and then John Deere will be back.
The big-blue-bug,that's one ugly machine.I'm sorry B.T.P.,every time I look at the New Holland,especially the front end of it,I swear they modeled it after some sort of insect.
Once again a weak performance for a BTP video on views out of the gate. . Only 328 views in 25 minutes. You are aware channels like How a Farms Work can do 2,000 views in less than 30 minutes. MN Mellinual Farmer got 255,000 views for backing equipment out the shed. You need to step up or just quit so other channels get a chance.
Ha ha. The realty is there are other bigger better ag channels. Plus he says he replies to every post but he has not replied to my last 5 posts. Yet I see he comment back to everyone else. Just scared of the facts I guess.
Woah there bud, you need to relax. Everybody has different video styles and different content. BTP does a good job explaining the basics of how the equipment is used and giving the data on the tractors. Ryan and Zach both make excellent videos but those are vlog style videos. Just sit back and enjoy the content, a lot of people just enjoy watching big equipment work.
