*This video is hands down the best explanation of crop farming I've come across. My grandson is going to be absolutely thrilled with it! I definitely hit that thumbs-up button, no doubt about it.*
Bigtractorpower , it is hearwarming to hear you describe it as the golden age of farming. Even though I started out in 1995, I started with a 4020 and a 6600 on rented land. When I hire really good guys now, they are young men and good guys and ladies but really have no concept of what it would be like to pull a twenty hour day on an open air tractor with a dusty sandwich bag in the toolbox beside you. When I hire good people now, everything I have now is autosteer, air conditioned, gps mapping to my office etc, but there has been a tangible element that has been lost along the way I think between man and dirt and I am guessing many of your fellow subscribers may feel the same way as I. I hope in the year ahead you might consider doing a long feature specifically on years gone by for your subscribers and help capture it into history permanently. Thank you for your good work sir, you have my highest respect.
What a great time the 80’s were. paid off my college debt, worked on a farm part time (Case IH 1460) ate dirt, played golf, Jersey shore, made some money, chased women. Doesn’t get much better than that!!!
I'm now forced to face the fact that I am now part of history - the equipment and methods that I was part of in the 60's and 70's truly were truly the "Golden Age of Farming." Dad made a good living farming - enough to provide for six kids, several dogs (and a pet raccoon!) I can't begin to tell you how that era of hard work, dusty clothes, sunburned necks and long hours trying to beat Mother Nature shaped me as a kid. We started learning to drive tractors when we were only 12. When we reached 14, Dad told us he would pay $4/hr to drive the tractors - about twice the minimum wage at the time. I told him he didn't have to pay so much, and he looked me squarely in the eye and said "You give me a good day's work, and I'm happy to pay a good day's wage." Started out on a Farmall 560 pulling a 10' disk. It was always kind of disheartening to disk all day in one field, finish for the day and look at how much field there was still left to do! Harvest season was noses clogged with soybean dust, fighting through muddy fields to get the crop in ahead of more rain. The family farm is now part of that history - Dad is now long passed, the acreage is being farmed by longtime neighbors, and the grain bins, buildings and elevators are now rusting quietly. But in its heyday, that farm was an amazing testament to one man's hard work and vision. Thank you for this video, bigtractorpower - you've given me a pleasant trip back to a simpler time!!
This is by far the best comment i've ever seen in my life. A tru diein breed. Brings back memories. It took a real man to do what it took to make a good living. Thanks alot for bring that back.
At least it is being farmed. My grandfathers farm is now part Mercer County Park, and all the other land I farmed with farmers I worked for until 1986, is now houses or office building. As my professor in Architecture school said, “New Jersey will be the first state paved from one end to the other.”
I wish I could live in those times, I'm only 12 but I know those were the days of hard work. This is by far the best comment ever, and somehow it almost brought a tear to my eye. God bless America, and all the farmers within.
By your comment I can say that you had a happy life. I wish I can have a lofe in the field plowing, seeding and harvesting. But born and raise in a city just allow me get close to a tractor now that I'm graduating in agroforestry engineering...
Awesome video . I loved this era that I grew up. The equipment we used was still from the fifties. But it worked. We had 400 achers. What a great time we had. TY for sharing this awesome video
I use a John Deere 4020 tractor, 6620 combine, and 7000 planter for the grain portion of my operation. When I raised organic crops, I also used a F-145A 5-16 plow, and an FM belly mount cultivator. My last organic crop was 2 years ago, I use chemicals now. For the livestock, I have a JD 400 grinder/mixer, Schultz/Allis Chalmers 325 manure spreader (can't find ANY info whatsoever for this machine), and a Case 1845C skidloader. Except for the skidloader, I could be farming in the 80's. Take out the combine, and I'd be back in the '70's. I like the older equipment, though. I'm just a young gun starting out, so I'm very happy with the equipment I have. I'd really like a scale on my grinder/mixer, that's about it. :)
Good video we had a new Deere 7000 plateless planter 8 row wide 36in dry fertilizer. New in 1975 what improvements over 1280 and 694A Planters. Purchased through our dealership first one in the area. Competition said their Planters were better. Haha Deere had the last laugh.
BTP, I loved this farming 101 from the late 20th century! Can’t wait til your next video. I’m running out of suggestions for you. I think row spacing and seed population changes over the decades might be interesting. We used to do 40” bean and corn rows in the 60’s/70’s. Strip tilling is another good subject.
In the late 60's - early 70's and as a kid I was stuck on a TO30 Ferguson to plow with 2 -12's JD plow that the tongue was cut short to fit the tractor it was designed to be horse drawn, and a one row Woods Bros corn picker, so I guess I was farming with the pre golden era equipment, then we got a Farmall H , now that was a BIG tractor for us.
Enjoy your videos. I grew up on a 🌾 rice farm in central Arkansas. Left the farm in 1999 but the farm never left me. Thanks again for your time and effort to bring us these videos.
Very good video on the process of crop farming. Old iron YES nice to see it still in uses. The new stuff is nice also. Growing up on the farm was alot of work but, watching the crops grow always made a person feel good. Thank you BTP.
I grew up in the late 70 s and 80s helping my uncles and aunts on there farms on the eastern shore of md.I remember we would all go up in the hay loft and make tunnels all through the strawlbales and then we would all play hide and go seek,I can still hear my uncle telling us kids to put them bales back the way we found them.One thing for shore it's fun when your a kid on a farm but as the years passed and the older I got the more work it was to do.work never seems to end on a dairy farm , twice a day milking and feeding up all the livestock it dont matter if its Christmas morning or anything else you had to milk them holsteins early in the morning and afternoon every day. I always enjoyed farming and helping out on the farm and the best part I liked was family get to gethers and all the homemade foods .I never expected to get paid when I was a kid but I shore did eat good and that was good enough for me.
excellent run through the why of various farming ways. i love machines but only played on livestock farms of medium size so nice to see what others were doing while i ran Massey 35 and 135 and such upto ford 7810 and a few Bambi 3350s . cheers.
Thank you for the rembers, the feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction when the crops are in, in the spring and in the fall. Presious memories, I never had trouble going to sleep at nite exhausted from the day's work , wake with the sun refreshed and ready to greet the days adventure, wahoooo giddy up go !!!
Could do a longer version of this video? For I and probably a lot more grew up in as you called it ' 'The Golden Age of farming' and it brought back a LOT of good memories!!
Great educational video showing & explaining the farming process of different crops grown. For me tho, it was very enjoyable to just set back & watch the equipment working in the fields. Stay safe.
stay safe from what? I always wonder about that very common comment. Almost every video on everything will have a stay safe attached to it or some comment on how dangerous it is. My world isn't all that dangerous, I certainly hope yours is not, but then again you wouldn't need reminding to "stay safe" if it was. It makes me wonder how we all became "safety people" I've seen it most in our kids, it's too dangerous to go outside and play ball, or ride bikes unsupervised like we did, so they stay on the couch, play video games and get all the dangers that come from obesity such as diabetes and heart disease. When I went to school my class of 20 kids might have had 1 overweight girl and 1 boy. When I compare what I see in children from then and now I start to question all this safety and nutritional knowledge we've gained since the 80's. None of this is directed at you by any means, it's just something that I've been wondering about as I see our society changing. My thinking is we've taken another step in evolution like upright man, to tool maker, to now this new safety man. I don't think it's a step forward by any degree, but what do I know is they'll figure it out in a million years or something. All I know is 12 year old kids went from running jumping little animals to these big round chunk monster's who don't have the physical ability to run and jump, and now we're getting the adult versions of these chunk monsters and it isn't healthy, safe, productive, or anything good that I can see. I blame it all on this safety obsession that started a while back.
@@jtoddjb JESUS dude, calm down. It's just another way of saying "Take Care". I don't view everyone as an unsafe operator or a complete idiot. That being said, from what I've seen in some of the videos here & witnessed personally, I really wonder sometimes.
Great footage, straight facts, professional narration. Videos like this are the reason I’ll never pay for cable or satellite tv again. Imagine Discovery or History channel doing this. Everything would be dramatized to hell and back. And we wouldn’t have learned one single fact.
Great video Jay. Love the old iron. As you know I absolutely love moldboard plowing. Maybe you can do a video on the advancement of it from beginning to now,single bottom horse drawn plows to 10+ bottom on land and rollover models. Plowing still seems to be popular in Europe. Here it's become a method of the past, although I have seen it being done more now than the past 10-15 years. Keep up the great work, old carpet farmers as myself enjoy the amount of time and effort you put into these videos for all to enjoy. Hope to catch up next time you come home.
There were allot of great 4wds and plows in Chili and Churchville. It seems the Krause Dominator seems to have taken over in the area. Great idea on the plowing evolution. Hopefully I will be in NY to say hello sometime this year.
Dang we lived that era. Not actually lived there but we used all 70s equitment. That was the cheapest stuff on the market in the 1990s-2000s. I like the tractor in the thumbnail
A very nice and informative video, thank you. I grew up growing oranges when I was a kid, and while that is a form of farming, it is nothing at all like the short of farming you show.
Great video, your voice is soothing making it easy to listen to and learn. I hope you make more videos with that MM A4T-1600 that tractor looked like it just came off of the showroom floor, an awesome discovery. Thank You for sharing.
As a relatively new subscriber, I'm playing catch up on your AWESOME channel. I really appreciate and enjoy watching ALL of your videos. Love your platform! All of the best from a retired "farmer" in Az.
Excellent production ! Those were my days and I truly enjoyed it. I thank you for this video! I want to go back to farming full time , I was happier then . Oh well life moves on , again Thanks!
Thank you for watching. It seems like just yesterday when the machines in this video were common place. They are getting harder and harder to find. Great memories to share when I can find them to film.
I wish I had a camera, nearly 20+ years ago one harvest the next door neighbour L3 Gleaner burnt to ground over night. Gordon ask our family, our friends if we could help finish harvest for him. There was Gleaner N6? With 24ft front, MF 3342 SP with 18ft and MF 525 with 12ft harvesting together. What a sight to see, all these combines are now retired replace with bigger combines. Gleaner and MF 525 both replace with MF 8780XP, MF 3342 + burnt Gleaner replace with red top CaseIH 8010.
It would be great to go back in time with today’s digital cameras to film farm machines at work. There is a Gleaner N6. It was the first combine to have a 12 row corn head.
This is probhably one of or eventually the best general information Video how farming works, that I have EVER seen, even in international dimensions. It's not to detailed to be bore outsiders, but detailed enougth to let people from outside get a good look and idea how this industry is going on all year long. This precious masterpiece of video really made my rainy day shine. Thx guxs and never stop doing this. You might safe a whole industrie from beeing forgotten by general folks in detail!
Same dude 850 versatile 4640 John deere 7520 John deere gmc general L3 L2 and r 62 Minneapolis moline g1000 ford L9000 two of them bunch more thats all the stuff we farm with
You need to get out west and film some irrigated row crop farming. Way different then the midwest dryland farming. Thanks for what you do as it is very educational.
Good video again! Its always nice to see how farming is done in the USA. A lot of things are different then here in the EU. Looking forward to the upcoming videos. Grtz from the netherlands
@@bigtractorpower Well, I see that now. I guess I don't see them anymore because I don't live near any big haying operations anymore. Sometimes we overlook the simple answers.
Funny most of what's on here is what I'm still running. All the mechanics at JD always tell me never get rid of my 4440 or 4640. They say they can't keep the new ones running. Not that i would ever be able to afford a new tractor. All i can do to break even.
I wish I could know what it was like to farm back then. I've seen pictures of my grandpa harvesting corn with a John Deere 3300 combine with the 2 row head. He was running that combine in his underwear, because it had no windows in it and it was hot as hell out! My dad would sit right behind the head and pull weeds out when they would farm down by the river bottoms. They were poor and worked HARD. My dad tells me stories of staying out late to finish plowing. One time he was out at 10:00 or so at night plowing with an open seat Allis Chalmers and a 4 bottom plow. He fell asleep at the wheel and went through at least 15 feet of trees and brush before he woke up. (Woods lined the field he was working on both sides.)He had to walk the 5 miles back to the house to go get grandpa to help drag him out. Grandpa wasn't happy lol - my dad was maybe 15 at the time. They ran no-cab tractors for most of the time they farmed - even to and from the grain elevator, since they couldn't afford a grain truck. The only tractor with a cab that my grandpa ever owned (bought it in the late 80s) was a 1972 John Deere 4230. The combine is long gone, but he still has that 4230 to this day, along with the gravity flow wagons they used. It was rough and they worked their rear ends off all year round. My grandpa was a shop teacher at the high school for 30 years AND a farmer at the same time! He also bulldozed in the summertime to make ends meet. Even through all that, he still managed to put food on the table and provide for the family - to me, that's badass.
At 8:00, I was startled to see the tractor driver applying incectcide without using any safety equipment at all. I can only suppose this is an old video back from a time when such safety regulations did not exist? Unimaginable scene nowadays!

What a great time the 80’s were. paid off my college debt, worked on a farm part time (Case IH 1460) ate dirt, played golf, Jersey shore, made some money, chased women. Doesn’t get much better than that!!!

Thanks for not ruining the sound of these wonderful machines with music. The sound of a redlined diesel is music!
Thank you for watching.
at 19-20 like to see young lad sat watching
The memories spent in the cabs of a 4020, 4640 and 6600 sidehill when i was young!
Very cool machines.
Excellent Video bigtractorpower
It was longer days ,harder work , a better time . Ho I was young then that makes a big difference, still fond memories. I’ve enjoyed your video.
This is one of my favorite videos of the good old days and many fond memories.
That was my goal for this video to show the way farming was for tillage and harvesting.
Good to see a Ford 5000 out there. Tough, simple and mostly reliable machines.
Ford made solid tractors.

I think row spacing and seed population changes over the decades might be interesting. We used to do 40” bean and corn rows in the 60’s/70’s. Strip tilling is another good subject.
Thank you for watching. Both great suggestions. I will see what I can do.
The sound of the Big Bud gives me goose bumps thanks .
Big Bud 4wds are awesome tractors.
Thanks BTP, I never knew about the tilling methods, about all the equipment, and how it is applied. I really enjoyed it!!

Your videos should be on TV like a TV show. They would beat everything that's on now in the ratings.

A very nice and informative video, thank you. I grew up growing oranges when I was a kid, and while that is a form of farming, it is nothing at all like the short of farming you show.

Great video, your voice is soothing making it easy to listen to and learn. I hope you make more videos with that MM A4T-1600 that tractor looked like it just came off of the showroom floor, an awesome discovery. Thank You for sharing.
Great video
Best farming video ever. I learnt so much from this video. God bless 🙏 guys.

Excellent production !
Those were my days and I truly enjoyed it. I thank you for this video! I want to go back to farming full time , I was happier then . Oh well life moves on , again Thanks!
Thank you for watching. It seems like just yesterday when the machines in this video were common place. They are getting harder and harder to find. Great memories to share when I can find them to film.
One of your best
Nice work
I wish I had a camera, nearly 20+ years ago one harvest the next door neighbour L3 Gleaner burnt to ground over night. Gordon ask our family, our friends if we could help finish harvest for him. There was Gleaner N6? With 24ft front, MF 3342 SP with 18ft and MF 525 with 12ft harvesting together. What a sight to see, all these combines are now retired replace with bigger combines. Gleaner and MF 525 both replace with MF 8780XP, MF 3342 + burnt Gleaner replace with red top CaseIH 8010.
It would be great to go back in time with today’s digital cameras to film farm machines at work. There is a Gleaner N6. It was the first combine to have a 12 row corn head.
Love your video👍😀
Thank you for watching.
I enjoy all of your videos I can’t wait till spring summer fall 2018 take care 🐝🌞
And everyone was happy traktor.baltic-agro.com
Absolutely one of the best videos!!!
All those chrome stacks had me drooling
It’s fun filming the classics.
bigtractorpower we have a 4430 buf are my favorite to drive
This is probhably one of or eventually the best general information Video how farming works, that I have EVER seen, even in international dimensions. It's not to detailed to be bore outsiders, but detailed enougth to let people from outside get a good look and idea how this industry is going on all year long.
This precious masterpiece of video really made my rainy day shine. Thx guxs and never stop doing this. You might safe a whole industrie from beeing forgotten by general folks in detail!
Thank you for watching and your comments. I plan to make a second version of this video showing modern farm steps through the season.
@@bigtractorpower sounds like a plan to me! And now we wait....

I guess I still living in that era. Lol
It was a great time and still is.

Great job on the video, vary informative and interesting.
I love that mini baler
👍

You need to get out west and film some irrigated row crop farming. Way different then the midwest dryland farming. Thanks for what you do as it is very educational.
Thank you for watching. Hopefully I can film out west someday. I have visited Bakersfield, CA. It was very interesting to see all the farming there.
Great video!!
Good video again! Its always nice to see how farming is done in the USA. A lot of things are different then here in the EU. Looking forward to the upcoming videos. Grtz from the netherlands
Thank you for watching. I enjoy watching farming in Europe because it it is much different than here in the U. S.
this one is really well done. good comments and no bad music.
Thank you for watching
7720 is a fine machine, we love ours.
The 7720 is one of my favorite combines. Is yours a Turbo or a Titan II?
Our neighbor breaks out his 4x4 7720 while his 9610 sit buried. They are great
Those bale-hoppers 11:00 were such fascinating vehicles. Why don't we see them around anymore?
They still build the stack wagons. I host saw a 2018 model at my local New Holland dealer.
@@bigtractorpower Well, I see that now. I guess I don't see them anymore because I don't live near any big haying operations anymore. Sometimes we overlook the simple answers.
Funny most of what's on here is what I'm still running. All the mechanics at JD always tell me never get rid of my 4440 or 4640. They say they can't keep the new ones running. Not that i would ever be able to afford a new tractor. All i can do to break even.
Big Bud sounds nice )))
Super video , super explanation.
Thank you for watching.
❤ This was really good it reminded me of my family it's just my family saying this
These machines represent a great time in farming.
I wish I could know what it was like to farm back then. I've seen pictures of my grandpa harvesting corn with a John Deere 3300 combine with the 2 row head. He was running that combine in his underwear, because it had no windows in it and it was hot as hell out! My dad would sit right behind the head and pull weeds out when they would farm down by the river bottoms. They were poor and worked HARD. My dad tells me stories of staying out late to finish plowing. One time he was out at 10:00 or so at night plowing with an open seat Allis Chalmers and a 4 bottom plow. He fell asleep at the wheel and went through at least 15 feet of trees and brush before he woke up. (Woods lined the field he was working on both sides.)He had to walk the 5 miles back to the house to go get grandpa to help drag him out. Grandpa wasn't happy lol - my dad was maybe 15 at the time. They ran no-cab tractors for most of the time they farmed - even to and from the grain elevator, since they couldn't afford a grain truck. The only tractor with a cab that my grandpa ever owned (bought it in the late 80s) was a 1972 John Deere 4230. The combine is long gone, but he still has that 4230 to this day, along with the gravity flow wagons they used. It was rough and they worked their rear ends off all year round. My grandpa was a shop teacher at the high school for 30 years AND a farmer at the same time! He also bulldozed in the summertime to make ends meet. Even through all that, he still managed to put food on the table and provide for the family - to me, that's badass.
Thats an amazing story, does your family still farm?

My grandma had a 1135 mf on her farm. Biggest tractor she had
At 8:00, I was startled to see the tractor driver applying incectcide without using any safety equipment at all. I can only suppose this is an old video back from a time when such safety regulations did not exist? Unimaginable scene nowadays!
Yes, had no idea these machines excited, love it ! cant imagine the man power, ..?
