Working up a Snow Covered Field - In this video I am out in the field with a John Deere 9420R tractor pulling a 25 foot wide Versatile Fury high speed disk. The field in this video had winter wheat on it which was harvested back in June then after harvest the field was seeded with a cover crop mix of oats and sunflowers. It started snowing on this morning and we were curious how this would all work up in the snow.

Wow, this was a treat to my eyes for sure, I like seeing machines working in the field while snowing, there is some calmness into it... Nice video you made there Mike, hope to see more like this as the year goes. Keep the good work.

The fury does a nice job with the sunflowers👍😉 cool to see some field work in the snow😁👍 Nice video, thank you👍

@tucobenedicto109 Год назад

By discing in the snow you add stored moisture. How the snow helps the dry soil. 🙂 Nice video Mike.

@robvangorp4068 Год назад

Oh yeah the joy's of snow tillage. Fun till it gets to wet. Than makes for a messy clean up. Thanks for the video.

Burying that free nitrogen…. Great video. I love plowing snow…. I’ve done it many of times…. Sometimes it was moldboard plowing, sometimes it was disk ripping, sometimes it was chisel plowing … happy thanksgiving to you and your family

@404nitro Год назад

I love tillage in light snow. Makes an excellent contrast to watch. If it was cold enough that the snow wasn't melting right away, it wasn't going to overheat that engine. I can't see how that is much different than a semi tractor running down the highway hauling a full load with the wind screens over the radiator either fully or partially closed.

radish also makes a great cover crop. they break up compaction and add a bunch of minerals to the ground. never seen oil seed crops turned over. good video

@dansmith207 Год назад

Just guessing but looks like a little power hop going on, tires look they need air pressure adjusted. We have a 9470R and it hopped terribly till we got that set.

@farmhandmike Год назад

Boy I run this tractor quite a bit Ann never felt it power hop. I did not run it on this particular day since I was videoing.

@ronaldayers6661 Год назад

There was definitely plenty of room for air to make it to the radiator. I wouldn't have worried about overheating in the slightest. People are ridiculous lol. Great video.

@sean3223a Год назад

Great video, please ignore the know-nothing naysayers. As any true operator knows, the snow on the grill would act no differently than intentionally adding a winterfront to any Kenworth or any tractor radiator, something often common during the coldest months of the year here in Alberta.

@thr8061 Год назад

We had our usual whacked Wisconsin fall. We had a couple inches of snow on 10/17/22 and a couple days later, it was 80 degrees. The rest of October & November, we had large swings between cold & snow and warm & dry. We even had thunderstorms on 11/29/22.

Приветствую вас из России. Не сразу понял, что подсолнечник здесь используется как сидерат. У нас в регионах Центр-Волга сейчас такая же обстановка, подсолнечник стоит под дождём и мокрым снегом. Фермеры ждут морозов чтобы убрать урожай.

@markfleck7981 Год назад

That is cool watching the tillage in snow. What do that type cover crop do for the ground? Will it help the corn enough to make up the expense of putting out the crop since only got one crop off this field. I understand cover crops are needed to build up soils

@PEThurman Год назад

I really enjoyed the video. What do I the sunflowers do for the soil as a cover crop? That’s a new one for me. I’m sure they were pretty while in bloom.

@johnkruger3661 Год назад

@noahater5785 Год назад

I wonder if engaging the tractor's differential locks would have helped with the low traction situation so you could run a little faster than 6-7 mph?

@farmhandmike Год назад

Losing traction was not the problem but the snow was bunching up if he went much faster and causing the front blades to plug

Guess the keyboard warriors have no idea how many sensors and warnings that machine has. You will know in short order if it starts to over heat. Hell before that happens you will hear the fan engage as it ramps up to 100%. The grill is not the only air path.
