We just unloaded a new Fendt 933 tonight for a customer who will be using it as a planter tractor. It is equipped with Various grip tire air system. The 900 series is similar to the 8000 John Deere . The warranty is not matched by anyone.

Just watched a video where Mike Mitchell put triples on the rear of his 517, what a beast. Great video.

Anyone would be jealous of this set up. Great job of showcasing the Joker and the seed bed it preps. Machinery has come a very long way. The 1050 is like the Sci-Fi version of what is normally run. Great Video.

Love that Fendt tractor.

What a bunch of Fun! Thanks Carl!

Great video. Fun watching that big Fendt pull the Joker like a toy.

I'm not a farmer BUT the results reminded me when I went from a small crappy 2-cycle garden tiller to a nice Troy built tiller. Beautiful looking soil!

I so enjoy your videos and how you present stuff. As a grown up I didn't work the farm only and a young buck But working on the railway for 30 years you see lots of stuff. The Fendt is a monster and they do build great tractors for sure. The Horsch Joker is one great working tillage machine from what you are showing.

Thanks Carl!😊

Carl thank you for an awesome video.

Carl's observations and explanation of the differences in the soil results left by different cultivators reminded me of listening to a radiologist explaining some diagnostic images: "You can see here where the nodules (clods) are less prominent and the circulation (tillage) is finer and more even?" Oh yeah sure, ah okay Doc Carl. Honestly, it all sort of just looks like dirt to me. I'm not sure whether you really can read the tea leaves and are giving us the straight dope here or if maybe you're pulling our legs. Either way thanks for another fine episode! Good luck with a smooth and easy planting season!

I used Horsch tillage tools and air drills before, they where absolutely great. Very user-friendly and easy to work on. Build quality is great, the machines are built to last! I really liked the Horsch Tiger with discs and chisel tines. Keep up the good work, I reg enjoy your videos.

I like that hole setup doing a great job

Hi Carl, I'm learning from your video. That is great you experience other equipment and see the results.

enjoyed the field work good video man

I think Fendt is the best tractor on the market. Just not enough dealers

I have a Joker RT370 and it’s great. We were running a 40’ Salford and upgraded to the Joker. I use it hooked to a Case IH 9390 with no power issues. Running in black dirt and some soils with clay and sand. Makes an amazing Canola seed bed. Had a couple bearings go on the disc cheapest I found the hub was $185.00 and the disc was $42.00 Canadian. Best performance was right 10mph to much faster it starts bouncing to much slower it doesn’t throw or bust the as well. Those spring packers do not like mud but does good in a dried up grassy mud hole. Breaks up old pasture land with a couple passes nicely to.

Awesome video

We have a Joker RT270. Seems like the bearings are constantly going out on it and they are super expensive. The packer bearings also go a couple times a year and they take some work to change. We also broke one of the roller baskets in half when it hit a big rock, that was going to be crazy expensive to replace so we had a machine shop fix it. A lot of these problems could be caused by our very rocky soil. We pull it with 330hp and in some conditions, the tractor is slightly underpowered. Also its a boat anchor in the mud.

the wheels weighted the spring rollers, you could weight your landall the get the pounds per square as the joker.

The drone shots do show a difference in level. Interesting how different.

Horsch has/is producing a lot of good gear don't own any yet but a neighbour has and offered a loan. Fendts are good gear too with the MAN engines. Hope your planting is trouble free.

Flagged some corn that came up today. Nice kit.

I'd be pretty nervous if I were Deere and Case IH. Looks like they're ahead of the game and it sounds like their warranty and relationship with customers are pretty phenomenal. Only downside is that it's all made overseas.

How is the fendt ??...I thinking best tractor on the market beside the price.....

Right of way is a function size and velocity, the bigger and faster you are the more right of way you have:)

Yes actually i seen one working from right in a tractor cab they do a good job

farmer up the road has 6 of the big Fendt

So y’all gonna get a joker if it clearly dies a better job, or what kind of muscle does it take to run the rig? Does the JD have the power if you do pick it up for the season?

What do you think of the transmission it only takes the horsepower that it needs to pull the equipment I think that’s pretty neat

Ran a Joker for a friend a couple seasons back. Speed is the key. Did take some getting used to on the turns but an impressive job.

It seems as though the tillage equipment is setting up a man made hard pan at 2-3” depth. Can the roots penetrate that hard pan in a drier year?

How much horsepower is needed to pull that Horst Joker? Seems like it needs a huge tractor to work

One can never have too much horse power in a tractor. You can quickly find oneself picking some extra ground one way or another and wish you it available or have a short corridor to work the extra hp makes it possible to do it faster with more economical operation figures.

It’s a tractor 🚜 of the Future

How come you have to clean sweep control boxes in your planter tractor?

It would have been interesting to do half a field with the joker and half with the landall, and see if the better seed bed would result in any yield difference.

Without a doubt, the better prepared the seedbed, the better germination, yield, and equates to more income. The better test would have been to put the Joker on the John Deere. I doubt that a Fendt is in the future after putting the dollars in the new to you Deere.

Sounds like a “harrowing” experience at that speed.

its fun to see the american market opening up to european ag brands

Is this the same setup that was on Laura Farms KZfaq out of Nebraska?

Cannot comment on that tillage equipment other than it sure raises a lot of dust. Conservation wise is that dust a bad thing? I use a spade, hoe and a rake but if you want to bring any tillage equipment (either is fine) to my little garden in the suburbs, you are welcome. I will buy lunch. Say, I am seeing the price of corn rising. Now let's pray for good growing weather.

you should talk to Mark Brock at sheepishly me on KZfaq ,pretty sure they run a joker

think the one on the fendet does a better job

I believe that you have two totally different machines and each do a different job

👍👍

Man I hate it when they come and steal your toys

I now mark brock has one

Does anybody plough fields anymore

Check with Marc Brock- husband of Sandi brock( sheepishly me- you tube) They have major farm in Canada and use the joker. I am sure he would be happy to answer any questions. Enjoy your videos.

It is an impressive tractor but Mike Mitchell found it’s power inadequate for his operation pulling large planters with grain carts compared to the largest articulated units. This year they put it on a smaller planter and put rear triples on it. I’d love to operate one.

Mark Brock, of Sandi the sheepishly me u tube fame has a Joker, he has had it for a few years, not sure if you follow them but might have some insight on issues etc

Do you watch Ice Age Farmer? I highly recommend you go watch his last two videos about the War on Food!

I watch another channel that they use a joker.

I think way better

Heck of pc of equipment! The Joker did a much better job

What the fuel difference between the JD and the Fint per hr? Yea you need led lights on the steps when you have to climb up a 10 ‘ ladder to get in a tractor 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Jokes are for sure the new wave if you ask me. We demoed one against a case speed disk and a Mach til. Joke did a better job, and you can run a joke in fall and spring!

The tractor is the wrong color green. 😂😂 John Deere green is better
