En Argentina el 730 es parte de la familia para muchos agricultores !

“You’ll never guess what he found” I’m gonna guess he found tractors

[@JustJove]

I'm guessing a classic one at that.

[@farmerboybill]

Clickbait title, I agree. If it says "Argentina" or "South America" and "tractor" in the title, it's gonna be about John Deere 730 high-crops...

[@jadenkline6453]

He got big classic tractor fever

[@jackofalltrades7469]

I had a ford jubilee but wife got sick and I was an hour away from any hospital and had to sell the farm and move to town. I did not mind the selling of the farm but almost cried when I sold the tractor.

[@theatomicclap5328]

Jack ofalltrades im sorry man i hope your wife is ok.

[@alexporter9667]

Yeah, I have a jubilee amd I love that thing... Personally I like my Massey to35 better with the high and low in transmission but that jubilee is definitely a keeper

[@farmerbill6855]

I got a tractor for my wife, best trade ever.....

[@jakereynoldsvter]

We have a '49 John Deere A, gets used whenever there ain't snow down, I got a video of it on you tube, check it out, thanks.

[@P61guy61]

Excellent. Thank you for posting

[@vincewilliams5219]

Great video, love the High crops, especially from other countries.

[@donvoll2580]

Good day Boy that was interesting to hear how they farm down there. Thanks

[@defuse56]

Gee, this video gives you ideas--how cool would it be to have an hour-long documentary about tractor and engine hunting in South America? Who knows what's down there in the back of beyond?

[@farmerd6]

I believe the most impressive tractor in this video is the one in the thumb nail. it is old and worn out but still running and doing it's job. the worst looking tractors are bought, used little and sit in a garage. a tractor is a tool that should be used for it's intended purpose, not a toy to be waxed and fawned over.

[@farmerboybill]

Most older tractors are so obsolete that their use is very limited on modern farms. This 730 won't even turn larger augers, let alone go to the field and do tillage or wagon hauling. Until this past year, I was using a 60 to move feed, but have retired it even from that. So the only option for a lot of them is to sit in a garage and be fawned over, or driven in a parade, or turned into a puller. Beats being scrapped.

[@mikhailkimbel7476]

My grandpa was using an old H for brush hogging and snow plowing/road grading and would still pull hay wagons just fine... Id think a 730 would still have a lot of use even pulling a 4 bottom is better than nothing for small acreage

[@l337pwnage]

spent a lot of hours staring at a similar dash when I was younger, lol.

[@LSnium]

I dont know a single thing about tractors, i never knew that they cropped farms.

[@enginegeek212]

We got a farmall 560 diesel and a ford 640

[@snydedon9636]

Really cool story, too bad getting the steam powered tractor out didn’t work out looked to be in pretty nice condition.

[@CheeseMiser]

I have a 1936 allis chalmers wc

[@Ellenslife851]

I’d love to travel were he went I bet I could find an old John Deere or something like that with all the original factory implements that you could get for the tractor sitting next to it if I could get a couple atleast of the same brand model tractors. One with all the implements like I said I would be in my glory but if I could find a bunch of the same model That I can use for each employment and one left over for a Haywagon I would be drooling

[@remco8170]

At home i have a john deere gp (1929) a fordson n (1932) a john deere b (1937) a ford 2nan (1945) and a john deere ar (1951)

[@robertpayne2717]

John Deere I think actually built some two-cylinder tractors in there plant in Mexico.

[@velo54]
