  • More and more farms are going to tracked equipment over tires. Each operation has needs and not every machine fits. It's time to put the 620 AFS Connect Steiger to the test and see how it compares to the Quadtrac!

    The air drill would be a neat upgrade in a few years. Praying for a better crop next year.

    The farming technology of today just blows my mind. It makes me wish I was still a farmer instead of just owning and taking care of our farm. We lease out our farm to a neighbor that really does a good job with the crop and he helps us out with small jobs that require big equipment. I’d love to operate a big tractor like the one you were planting with in this video.

    Thanks for another great video and drone video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Appreciate the drone footage. It is so American and lights up the heart with the music and everything. Know it is extra work and appreciate you doing it.
    The theme of tracks and tires. Really like all three of you giving your opinion. I am an old tire guy so I lean that way. Tracks have their place most certainly. I feel a lot depends on your soil type and what you are doing with the tractor. I would want a tire unit if it was me. Your evaluation was really good and interesting. Beautiful tractor and equipment and the cab is super nice. The equipment available now days is outstanding for sure.
    Sending a pat on the head to my pal Colby. Likes riding in the tractor. The orange conveyor you have is really a handy unit. Love the way it operates. Great. Again, thanks for the drone footage. You all take care and be safe. May god watch over all of you. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks.

I continue to be amazed by your ability to farm massive acres under terrible conditions with demanding equipment issues and all while meeting all sorts of outside demands on your time. You guys accomplish all that AND THEN somehow manage to make interesting, appealing content which you then edit and blend while reinforcing your brand. Hollywood moguls must gnash their teeth and weep into their quiche and endives (and all this while you work a landmass roughly equivalent to all of Louisville, Kentucky).

  • @patrickburgmeier7902
    @patrickburgmeier7902 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm sure you guys aren't worried too much about compaction Nick, but you should be. But compaction is related to the number of axles and the weight load of each axle. Track tractors, weather 2 track or 4 track have more axles. The boggie wheels constitute as axles. Plus the tracks put more square inch of contact than do tires. As far as ride the tracks ride the ridges where tires go over and feel every ridge and valleys. Quad track take more power than 2 track or tire. Too test for compaction you need a ground probe. A 3/8 steel rod with a slightly bigger ball bearing wielded to 1 end and a T handle rod wielded to the other works. You can feel the resistance between compacted ground and the ground that you have ripped for instance. Loose ground will absorb more water. Freezing doesn't break up compaction either. We have headlands where we do all our turning and truck field traffic , is testimony to this.

    It's neat when you look back across the history of farm tractors it goes from wheeled steam traction engines, to metal tracked tractors from which the WW1 tank spawned, back to rubber wheeled, then back to rubber track, and now back to rubber wheeled for a lot of people with these big super singles they can make now.
    Wheeled while it doesn't have the flotation or traction of tracked sure does have a lot more HP doing useful work instead of generating friction so more efficient and more power hitting the ground.
