Thanks for Letting Me Drive Your Tractor, Franky! | A Case IH Tractor Video 

Here in 🇬🇾 Guyana we finished ploughing waiting on the rains...

Matt, bet you have a bunch of "B-Roll" footage from your phone/cam from the perspective of the cab floor looking at the cab ceiling... CONTENT: GOLD ! Always enjoy tagging along in the tractor like Juan Brown.

keep on churning. Thanks for the upload.

I learned some stuff today. Thanks for posting.

Matthew, when I start my truck I put on my seat belt. This gives the engine time to properly lubricate before engaging the transmission. So it is a good habit to have as personal protection for both you and the engine of your chariot.

Hi Matt, Boss is on the job...😎 Fields looking good... Did notice your rear wiper could do with a little bit of TLC...😁🤣

Love your work and your videos! Would be great to see and learn more.

Wow ...I guess every part of the country does farming different. If dad caught me not not lifting the disc out of the ground on every turn,i don't think I could have sat for a week when I was young! Lol happened

👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 nice job as usual ,thanks 👍🏾😀🚜🇺🇸🇺🇸

Great video matthew. Im sure you werent as nervous about the turns id bet this isnt your first rodeo playing in the dirt. Thanks for sharing i enjoyed it.

Good job as always Matthew. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy!

I like that mower. Very cool.

I like those case ih tractors

Brilliant for me thanks

Oh, man...there's a lot of people havingnandneezing fit just looking at all those flowers and pollen As always, great work. I enjoy seeing farm fields with crops other than corn, soybeans, wheat and alfalfa. And alfalfa is only if were getting real squirrelly on the RU-vid

Matt, maybe adding a hatband mount for your camera would give you the third hand you were wishing for?

Hope you were able to plant everything before the pouring rain that is coming down now? Wondering how your nitrogen shortage played out that you talked about in Juan Browns video he did with you?

Good job

If you have metal in the cab consider building a rig like the guys at Welker Farms did with a magnetic foot.

Great video Matt

Enjoyed the video real informative

Have you ever tried mounting harrow's or rolling baskets to help break up lumps?

A video on your fuel stations. The set-up, capacities, and gallons per minute. Just wondering because I noticed you use a gas engine pump versus an electric pump. And I currently use “Gerry” cans. A lot of lifting.

TUMS UP TO YOU AMIGO

Great job Man 👏👏 Looks like this place is near to me. Is it in & around Tracy? I see only veg and fruit farms here🤔

Great video Matthew. I wanted to comment on how you are disking though. You are making extra work for yourself, there is a more efficient way to work a field that you may want to consider. You want to go around the outside round turning to the right, and the rest of the field turning to the left. The reason you do the opposite direction on the outside from what you are doing is the disk throws dirt to the right. Over time, that dirt builds up around the outside of the field. So you want to be turning right the first round, so you are not building up a ridge on the first pass around the edges. Then you want to be turning left on the rest of the field, for the reason you mentioned in the video: you can turn left without raising the disk. That does not mean you don't have to work the corners, you still have to. The whole point of the disk you are using is that it allows you to make left turns without raising up. Then when you are finished, you work the corners the same that you have been.

Would using a normal plow or maybe a chisel plow with smaller spacing's not save you having to do two passes? We sometimes even put wide cultivator sweeps on our chisel plows to make sure all the soil get worked. Also the same for the discs. You get seedbed discs with the discs a lot closer together. Would using one of those with a heavy roller not also smooth the field in one pass? Just thinking there is a lot of fuel to be saved. Not trying to be a know it all but as a fellow farmer I do like saving money :)

Hey Matthew I have a question why do you not run a soil finisher because a lot of people in my area of farming runs slow finishers but why do you guys not run soil finishers

That's a big harrow the case 260 working there ....how much disc on it

Why do y’all use an offset disc? Great video!

Franky is disking near the levy. now the levy is dry

Maybe you could invest in a magnetic mount? LOL

1. Over time, does your rice fields get higher, lower or remain the same in height excluding land lowering due to the water table lowering. 2. What is happening over time to the land height due to the water table lowering?

Hi, I'm Sri from Sri Lanka. i've purchased more than100 acres of rice land. Traditionally, locally farmers are planting in small block for instance 1 acre is divided as 4 pcs. for me its not comfortable due to I have big land. plowing and harvesting are very difficult due to movement of machines. my question is how many acres of land can one block comprises?

😂😂😂😂😂 better keep your day job 😂😂😂😂be safe buddy God bless

As a lifetime southern Indiana row crop farmer your tillage videos are very frustrating. To each their own on how to prepare a seed bed, but way to many passes and such small tillage equipment. But do love the videos and I support all aspects of agriculture! Rice is a long way from corn and soybeans so I find it interesting none the less. Keep it up!

Are you really a farmer!

How often do you have to level after discing 2 passes?

Do ur case tractors have auto steer

You need a camera holder 👍

I’m from New York so I’m not familiar with this term. What constitutes a “ Butte” ?

You can do voiceover later during editing. Then you can concentrate on driving and ploughing only

Why can't you "dress the corners" of a rectangular field with the first couple of passes, and then do the rest of the field with a single spiral toward the center? Wouldn't this be faster than having to make critical turns at the ends of every row?

Why dry the soil out before you flood it?

When are you going to seed?

Why dont you just use a 6 to 8 meter 3 pointhitch power harrow

Explain right and left braking to me....that I had no idea about 😲🤷‍♂️

Seems that u hire a lot of tractor drivers to work your fields. U farm what about 1500 acres of rice?

I see you don't have GPS in your tractors...

Problem is that you are talking full time no rest of time we listen and see the tractor harrowing the field

Where’s your GPS

Did you really wear those latex gloves all day?? Wow. I know when working on a car with them on, after a while, my hands get all sweaty. What a pain. Be nice when it's over. At least your county isn't making you wear face masks!!
