that looks fine once you got her set up , tractor is big enough if its was slipping around and struggling then as i was told , it was to wet to be out there , and really there is so much truth to that , chopped up them stocks well

Going on a biased angle to the rows the first time cuts the stalks better with less angle on the machine. Second pass can be run like you are going to plant. The 7810 didn't run away with the machine, but it pulled it well. Love those tractors! Great video, and good luck with your own crop!🤞👍👍

Good luck with your crop. To me it doesn't matter too much about what kind of tillage you use. I'm of the belief that you want the top 4" of ground to be soil that uses the nutrients provided. Worms, bacteria and organic matter in the top 4" or so is what really matters. The roots of plants, generally speaking, don't need loose soil to go down into the ground for water once the plants mature, but the top 4 ' is what gets the plants started and that tends to be one of the most important parts, getting the plants started, once they're started they tend to take care of themselves unless there are extreme circumstances like flood, drought or no nutrients.

TOO wet. My dad used to say ..if you are harrowing or disking and there is no dust go home and do other chores. I know you have to work with the weather, but sometimes you just make ruts and compact the soil more. Good luck getting it all done in time.

Normally, that tractor would be plenty for that disc but considering how hilly and steep of land you guys farm, not necessarily more power, but more weight would help out a ton. Weight and traction. You guys farm hard ground ! Good on you guys for taking on the task

Shoulda waited to comment after watching more of the video. Once ya figured it out and got your second pass ya got exactly what I was aiming at so you nailed it 🤘first pass never looks like much at all. First pass basically just chop residue, second pass more aggressive and incorporate more dirt,

When I farmed we were mostly heavy soil. Molboard (5 bottom) and (7 shank disk) chisel plowing was all done in the fall. We were about 2 weeks behind farms that had lighter soils in the spring. The large farm that uses the land today does all their tillage in the spring after applying liquid manure.

What a difference the 2nd pass made. For the first time on new ground for you, you did a great job. Watching your tires from the rear you could see a lot of slippage on the first pass and non at all on the 2nd pass.

Field cultivators is what works best for us. Two passes first one 3-4 inches at 6-7 mph and second at 2-3 inches at 7-8 mph. 38 foot cultivator with a 305 Case IH magnum. Speed on second pass really levels it out.

I bought a hi-speed tillage tool 2 years ago. Similar idea, and went minimum tillage. I have a Pottinger “Terradisc “. I try to go over the corn stalks behind the combine in the fall, one pass. Knocks them down, throws a bit of dirt on some of it, and holds it close to the ground, so it can decompose a bit and help cover the ground to prevent soil erosion. I don’t try to go very deep, it’s really not necessary, and I will take two passes in the spring if I am switching out to soybeans. I use a CaseIH Magnum 8920, roughly 155 hours tractor and run about 7-7.3 mph I really like the idea of chopping the corn stalks instead of burying them, they actually seem to rot faster. And the trash on top helps hold moisture. Although we have been getting way too much moisture falling from the sky this year, lol

I think that's one of those machines where less is more. Chop up the stalks and leave the old roots alone to break down allowing water to enter the soil.

Hi Aaron, my thoughts on tillage and spraying: First round, take some of the sod, about 2 tractor tires worth, with the turbo. Most of the noxious weed seeds/seedlings are there. Does the 3 point sprayer have a fence line nozzle on it. I have a similar sprayer and added one. On the left side, the last nozzle has a right angle fitting. Change that to a T, get a 1/2" pex shut off valve and an another nozzle set up. I added an extra bar extending the boom past the foam marker to hold the new tip. Mount the new nozzle so the spray is vertical. Turn the valve on for the first round and off for the other internal passes. The fact that this is a manual shut of, the benefits out weigh the hassle. Depending on your spray components, this really hits the giant rags and water hemp while keeping the brush back some.

You do know for that to work the way it should work you should be running 7 to 10 mph. You better hook the 1066 on to it so you can do it

This was our first year with a turbo max. I found out on heavier ground, if it’s wet soil, you can make some wicked clods. I shallowed out and went 3 degrees. Speed helps. I was running 8 tp 10 mph. Smaller patches you can’t do that obviously.

Thanks and I enjoy your content. Now I am a KZfaq Farmer so my question is how fast do you pull the turbo tiller? As I farm across different channels it seems that the travel speeds of this type of tillage varies greatly. Some guys roll pretty fast.

Pulling those hills maybe you guys could pick up a JD 8440 articulating tractor for dirt work? I’ve got one but just use it for pulling a Knight sideslinger manure spreader.

Just wondering back then we had a 1998 7810 that was 175 hp and I remember getting it turned up a bit and was at 180hp and around 148-150 hp at the drawbar. It was plenty of tractor back then but we didn't have the terrain you have up there.Do you know how much engine hp your is?

I'm very old school. So I ask, would a quad trac work better on those hills? Does it make a difference? Not sure about power but it does look pretty greasy.
@MorganOtt-ne1qj
@MorganOtt-ne1qj Ай бұрын
Tracks reduce compaction for the same amount of traction. If you are sliding on tires, the tracks will not be any better. The 7810 is one of the last great tractors JD made. Weight is built into them, and they don't have engine management electronics.
