This is basically what it's like farming in South Australia, tonnes and tonnes of limestone rocks in paddocks, usually, the property boarders are piled up with mounds of rocks.
Rocks in agriculture land means free minerals. Crush them on the land and you will be a very happy farmer. Look up FAE stone crushers(They only one of many manufacturers). We now busy with intensive research on how crushing instead of licking up can enrich your soil over time. The crushers can crush up to 600 mm deep.
Ya! Well see, he's gonna follow up by going over it with a stone picker and then a pebble picker and then, after the wind blows all the dust away, he'll reach bedrock and it'll be ready for planting.

Rocks move up through the soil where there are freeze thaw cycles at least. I doubt that applies here often, but plowing might do the same, so i was wondering the original question too.
If there was no rocks in that field there'd be nothing to plough, youve taken that many rocks out, now the fields back in the flood plain, good job though 😂
No disrespect intended, bit it looks like you have a gravel pit, not a farm. I hope your other fields are not that bad. A rock crusher might be more of what you really need.
why bother even trying to farm it? could probably make more money selling rocks or turning it into a quarry. sorry for the guff but I'm from Iowa #someofthebestsoilontheplanet. there is some rocky ground but you have more rocks than soil. cool vid. I like it!!!
It looks like road-base material, i dont mean to sound condensending, but that is probably the worst quality of soil i ever seen, its gravel!, next to no organic material, (again, i dont mean to sound evil). You need a LOT finer mesh on the picker, as well as 50 or so years of spreading maneur and plant matter
Now after this just trow poop from animals every year for next 5 years and you will not recognize the field...thats what im doing. WIth this kind of we call it ,,yelow fields'' lower quality..but it can be good in couple of years :D
It may be really slow, but that's the best small stones picker I've ever seen as far as low budget machines go.
i used to farm on the SW coast of Scotland and the standing joke was if you picked all the rocks in yer field the tide would rush in

Whoa...that is some rocky soil. You could make more money selling gravel than you could growing potatoes.
Looks like he’s going to be able to do both
I don’t think you can grow potatoes in such a rocky field. Looking at the surrounding fields, it does look like these were made for anything.

Hello, how are you doing today I hope you have a wonderful day?
Thats what people owning this one do th-cam.com/video/O02lwcRvFO8/w-d-xo.html
Good source of roadbase material
‼️‼️ Now that’s Impressive ‼️‼️
I don’t even own a tractor
🤣But I want one 🤣
🙏❤️ Love from Scotland ❤️🙏
If he gets all off the rocks out of that little patch he is going to be left with a pit.
😄😄
I want to see more videos, should be able to use the stone for road and dam repairs.
Great job keep up the good work

I never realized that aggregate farming was such a big hauler. The quarry man must be jealous.
Gotta pick the rocks when the rock picking is good. Nice harvest that year.
I hope that's just a bent shaft on the side of the rock picker and not a shot bearing. Either way, needs attention ideally
Nicely done video
Rock picking from this field looks like lifetime occupation. Good luck.
You can build a good road with the stones
So this is where baby rocks are grown
Do you do this every year? I've been told over the winter when the ground freezes or gets cold it pushes more rocks to the surface.
How deep can it pick up rocks?
Up to 30 CM
If you could hear anything in the cab, what sort of music would you play? Would you drive the rig stoned?
Rock around the clock!
Sir I'm from India..we love your technology.. can you please send me the pic of this machine and drawing of structure..

what machine was used to till the rocky ground in the first place?
Cultivator
whats the make of rock picker who make them
That’s the slowest thing I’ve seen in my life. Picks a lot though!
Yeah it goes slow cause it picks not only the rocks on the surface but the ones in 20-25cm depth as well.
What happens to all these rocks?
Do you have to do this every year?
Unfortunately yes, the rocks migrate back to the fields and have to be removed.
/sarcasm

What did Glacier say to farmer as leaving?........"Going back for more rocks!
here's a burning question:
What do you do with all of those rocks?
ROCKS FOR SALE sign. (FREE)
That's close to : leaves for sale
(saw that written on a sign last autumn)
Interesting work if you can get it.
You would make more money turning that area into a gravel pit over farm land. What does that New Holland cost per hour to remove type two gravel?
Not NH, its a Landini.
Rock around the clock. Not much left in the way of soil, just smaller stones.
can i lease this?
Also you can crush for concrete aggregate.and sale it
What grows in that horrible dirt?
Maybe you could start a rock selling business for landscaping.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Harvesting rock 🪨

Looks like Inland Farmer could use a ROTADAIRON.

I always wondered how the remove the rocks in farm fields, now I know.😂
i know if we picked all the rocks at our place that it would no longer be called a farm but an open pit mine.
Sweet
i guess growing potatoes is out of the question !
Des galets roulé, une ancienne rivière
They must hydrate that field with mineral water.
That field is more rock than soil.
if you went faster would you just get more dirt
yes
No disrespect intended, bit it looks like you have a gravel pit, not a farm. I hope your other fields are not that bad. A rock crusher might be more of what you really need.
Need a rock picker with a bigger box so you dont have to stop so often.
Ничего, бывают земли хуже. Поработать над увеличением органики в почве - и будут урожаи как на чернозёме
Hopefully you can sell the stones. It's all money.
a rock farm $
Leave the rocks, you could sell extra heavy hay bales, charge more$
Vitaj kolik je potřeba traktorovich koňských sil 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👀👀👀👀👀💪💪💪💪💪💪
Hi
I woud take the all of soil completely with a bulldozer.
almost 90% roks 😁
why bother even trying to farm it? could probably make more money selling rocks or turning it into a quarry. sorry for the guff but I'm from Iowa #someofthebestsoilontheplanet. there is some rocky ground but you have more rocks than soil. cool vid. I like it!!!
Φίλε είναι για πώληση ?
Rock picking a gravel pit! Buy a rock crusher and open a gravel pit!

Il vaut mieux en faire une carrière
Looks very inefficient plus all the soil disturbed and lost.
Great job keep up the good work
