Started precision leveling with Trimble WM Drain and a box scraper in Northwest Ohio a few years ago. Have 120 acres precision leveled so far. Makes tiling much easier and more effective. Liebrecht Manufacturing family wrote the book on it in my neck of the woods.
Even here in L.A., we went from having about a dozen electronic supply stores in the valley... to zero, in less than a decade. Pretty ridiculous. But the internet killed them all. I work in RF tech, and I have to 100% order every single component nowadays.
Greetings from the STICKS in North County San Diego,California. We move dirt so we can pack people in huge density to maximize. As you often mention😂 ITS ALLLL ABOUT ROI....😊
I'm not sure how many inches of top soil was relocated from the former high spots. My main concern would be removing so much that you would be down into "sterile" soil. Meaning less organic matter and lower fertility and less micro biology activity than what was previously above it. Being a dairyman myself, I'd spread manure on those spots pretty heavily over the next few years to help get that new soil healthy. Good video.
As a precision leveling contractor in south Louisiana, this is fascinating to see y’all do this in the northern states. Seen many tiling videos from up north but not much dirt shifting. Wish the dirt on most of my projects were that good! Very nice material!
Andy, we start our drainage work with the surface. If we can get surface water off, the tile works faster and better. Our goal is to get water off the surface in 24 hours.
Tom - this is something I need to look more into on my farms. My grandpa ran a buckeye through our fields, building multiple systems, but other than building some structures, we never dabbled in a surface job like this. I can think of a few fields this might augment the tile very well. Thanks for sharing and helping me validate my thoughts. Andy as always great video. So much can be gained by doing these projects most people don't want to do. Cheers!
It was a great video. What farmer doesn't like to see engineered drainage improvement. And there is nothing better, and to a certain extent, more relaxing than good equipment working a good plan in good dirt. Looking forward to watching Spring work.
We started putting our own ground to grade in Southern Illinois 4 years ago. Much cheaper than putting tile in the ground and dealing with the ongoing maintenance issues with tile that no one wants to talk about. We use all John Deere GPS with T3rra cutta for our land grading. If you could add a carry or ejector pan to the front of that ralse your speed and efficiency will increase.
OptiSurface is far smarter than Terra so you don’t need to move as much soil and therefore don’t need as much bucket capacity and it saves a lot of compaction.
G’day Andy. You you people have it easy. When I was at AG college here in Australia we had to survey a plot with theodolite and staff and then work out soil movement needed for .75% slope for rice paddy Fluff factor of scraped soil needed to be taken into account as well. To do the actual work the scrapers used laser (very new and extremely expensive in late 70’s) levels and the operator had to control height by hand (no computer controls back then). It’s so easy now.
My experience with moving such an amount of dirt is that you need to build it back up for two years before you are there where you want it to be but depends on how much top soil there is. Happy new year to you and your family Andy
Andy this episode sure was a mission for you bud, hope that everything get better moving forward, and now that I think of it, could be the JD tractor heard you said the CHASE tractor was nice and got a bit jelly, that's why the low voltage message....., figures.... lol 🙂, stay safe, stay awesome bud until next time, please tell the family and crew hi for me please and thank you 🙂
I think this video was great. I love seeing equipment working in the field doesn't matter what color it is. The drone shots are very cool. Again,Thanks for sharing.
You mentioned possibly building a new shop building. You might cherck out the videos the Millenial Farm did on their new shop building. It was pretty cool, It has about a 60 foot bi-fold entrence door. It may have a couple other large doors on the side of the building also. Room permitting I think having the 60 foot bi-fold entrence doors on each end of the building might make for getting equipment in and out of the building a lot easier. Sorta like a C-5 Galaxy cargo aircraft, drive in and drive out. Backing equipment is where accidents tend to happen.
Another comment. For best results you should do your final scraper pass in the main direction of water flow (North South in this design) and also farm in this direction, otherwise the small ridge left by machinery wheels and implements will inhibit the surface drainage.
This process makes sense to me, same theory as grading an area like a parking lot for drainage. Ben from IowANFarmer almost gets almost giddy about field drainage/tiling. He has the equipment & even travels to help other farmers. Everything I’ve learned about field drainage came from Ben & the “Master pipe layer”& yes, it’s very expensive.
Your alternator issue seems to be a " Harness Bad/dirty ground". This will also explain why the original alternator packed it in....bad ground = low voltage / excess heat
laser leveling is common here in calif ... very important here to irrigate evenly, reduce labor, and conserve water ... we usually level twice to take care of settlement .... i would think that you should do this leveling before putting is tile ... here tile is installed for high water table fields ... good luck
You guys need to come to Holland end see how we do this every piece of land is flat end the top soil is everywhere the same end all the tile are laid on gps end lazer level
The way the soil piled up and ran over the front of the scraper, that tractor could pull a much larger scraper. I pull a 12 foot scaper with a 230Hp tractor. The tractor doesn't have enough power to pile up the soil like that tractor did. I have owned it since the mid 90's so I have a laser set up. A neighbor used the scraper last fall and he put a GPS system on it supplied by Deere. It was a slick system and did a good job for him. I use the scraper to level our fields for flood irrigation. Out here in the western deserts you see a lot of it. I have fields that we had to cut 3 feet off of small corners. Of course those areas have taken several years to build OM back and some areas still suffer after 20 years because they just don't grow enough biomass. But without leveling there wouldn't be any water reach those areas to grow anything. So 6 of one or half a dozen of the other, but manure applications make a big difference if you can get it. I would think in Illinois your top soil is deeper so if you take a foot off the top you won't even notice it. Leveling for drainage makes a lot of sense. No high spots or low spots. Nice even water without any underground pipe that needs maintenance. Nice job. It is a big time investment that will pay off for many years to come.
In the Central Valley of California if you're putting in an Orchard you wouldn't think of not Laser Leveling after Deep Ripping to 6ft. or more. When you want to sweep up the Nuts. It has to be Dead Level.
Trevor Bales from YT's Bales Hay Farm & Ranch can talk alot about planing/scraping/leveling land. They do all their fields in AZ because they flood irrigate.
Land planing is very common in the south. Because of the different nature of the soils, tiling in not effective and surface grading is the only method that works.
I've worked as a technician at a New Holland dealership and now a John Deere dealership. I love to see the comparisons between the Deere and CNH tractors! Has the 9620r needed a rocker arm PIP done? I have been hammering through those about 1 a month and every one needed a new camshaft. I've learned that the Cummins powered tractors seem to eat alternators. There is an update I read about that adds a smooth idler pully between the A/C compressor and the alternator pulleys.
This alternator ends up getting replaced as well. Other than that, I don't believe it has any issues, but it is still young in terms of hours. A lot of those fixes are Fix If Fails, so we never know that it could be an issue until it breaks!
@@aTrippyFarmer The rocker arm PIP is a mandatory PIP and if damage to the camshaft is found it gets replaced as well. There is a serial # range for all of this of course.
Were im from u see that regularly rice farm is more efficient when leveling has taken place we use levee to hold water on the crop topo is taken then loaded to a computer and it generates the grade u want then load to a jump drive load it to the tractor and it shows u were the levees go sounds like a lot but pretty simple now days sure beats the old way of surveying the land with a instrument a lot faster now the flater the better for rice but we grow beans to so if u get to flat water has problems getting off so if u grow beans u better off with a little bit of grade we fight what u fighting alot have to surface drain everything u have to get the shovel out and dig it off sometimes
Be interesting for you to run a grain cart with a red tractor. That single function handle for speed and gear shifting is handy. I've run both colors and find different uses for each style. I work for a land management company and I see we have no farms in that area. Based on your choice of language with owner and land manager do you guys custom farm this piece versus cash rent or crop share?
In one recent video Andy talked about the landowner being disappointed in yields because it was a share rent. At least that is what I think it was....could be wrong.
@@wry569 Ya as a farm manager just the last 4 years, I'm always looking to do things to improve arrangements between both parties. I have one landowner where he wanted to run an 80/20 custom arrangement. The farmer gets 20% of the crop instead of payed per task. This year that paid out VERY well. Other years it may be tighter or be dependent on marketing. I'm still trying to feel that out to make sure it's fare to the operator and not exorbitant to the owner.
I ran the dump plate to push dirt forward if the pan was almost empty. Other than that, the elevation is pretty much automatic, other than messing with your offset if you need to run higher to cut less or fill more.
I'm not sure what you're asking exactly. The tractor is probably $400,000. Scraper and GPS hardware together is probably close to $100,000. It was about 75 hours worth of work in this field to complete the process.
At most, I would estimate there is a gross expense of $250-300 per acre. Typically, you see your largest returns from drainage in soybeans. If it brings the farm average up 10 bushels per acre on 100 acres, that is 1000 bushels of soybeans. Current prices of $14 per bushel make that worth $14,000 for 1 season. At $300 per acre, the entire project would be $30,000. That would take 3 years to return on your investment using fixed numbers. Farming is never that simple, though!
In some places, you will definitely cut out the top later of soil. We are betting that the process is a net positive based on the mitigation of water damage during the growing season.
I’m not sure that I know what your asking… it is all designed with minimum and maximum parameters. I would assuming that at any given point there could be a different true slope based on the natural topography of the land.

Like I said, if it’s not turned perfect and there’s marks on the positive cable end and the battery, the car will not start! Check the cable connections on the positive and negative connectors near the battery and the alternator. What’d Lenny get for Xmas? A John Deere tractor?
