Howdy, I really enjoy your channel, I'm a 4th generation beef farmer in Alberta, I noticed you said it was October 13th... I know farming keeps you busy all the time, especially spring and fall, but I was hoping to see more recent videos from mid November, as it's now the 21st, Anyways, as I said, really enjoy seeing other Canadian farmers here on TH-cam, it would be nice to see more here in Canada, like they have to our southern fellow farmers.. Thank you my Friend, Peace
Know what you are saying about the squeaks, had that in the combine this fall for about 4 days. Just about drove me crazy than one day on got in and it was gone. To this day don’t know what happened but was very thankful.
That should be real nice to seed into in the spring. That’s what I like to do after our wheat crop, then plant corn right into it in the spring without working the moisture out of the ground
@@Northern_Farmer fertilizer is over double a ton right now from what I paid last spring. I booked canola back in September for this coming spring along with the chemical. Right now I've saved quite a bit.
It seemed you were going on the same direction as plowing. I would have expected subsequent passes on a bias or did I just miss evidence of a different direction?
Is there a reason that they seem to do more chisel plowing down south in the states. But up north they do more mullboard plowing. Or is it more of what you like? I know the soil is alot blacker up north then down here in the southern states.
Dad can run non stop with a squeaky seat. Me? If I plop my ass down and heard as much as a peep out comes the lube. Keep the tops off the fancy WD-40 cans with the flexible metal straws. Most of the time you can use them on cans that actually contain a product that lubricates. Graphite spray for the seat is my go to. Or Lucas chain lube.
I've never seen a red Steiger that doesn't say Case International or CaseIH on it, like your 9250 which appears to just say Steiger on all four sides. Did you change the decals because you like Steiger better than IH or Case? I thought maybe it was a Canadian thing, but I just looked up on Tractor House five 9200 series tractors for sale in Canada, and all have the normal Case International and CaseIH decals.
@@Northern_Farmer Oh, cool special edition. Aren't call red Steigers through current made at the Steiger plant in Fargo, ND though? Maybe they built a new plant at some point but still in Fargo, I don't know. Like how all Magnums are built in Racine, but newer Magnums are not built at the same plant which made 7140s in the late 1980s.
Just for the hell of it you should try your heavy harrows across that. Man I was amazed how amazing of a job mine did on any sod lumps and rough spots just blew them away
I personally think harrow-packers work better than heavy harrows in breaking. I’ve tried both and the harrow-packed stuff was a lot smoother. The coils really help squish that lumpy shit. Heavy harrows work best in standing stubble.
Get the pouches and throw in every tractor they say it works we are trying it for the first time this year . We had a neighbor he said the mice won't get near the cab so let's hope it works
I have heard of fall moldboard plowing or fall disking alone, and letting fields lay that way until spring with no fall seeding. But I've not heard of moldboard plowing followed by disking twice, three passes in the fall without seeding, and still letting it lay that way until spring. I have also never been to Canada. Isn't erosion a problem with that?
@@Northern_Farmer we run a 32 foot sunflower and it doesn't do well in the clay ground we have a few sandy fields but have never tried it on those fields yet but most of our ground is clay. Also was that a case stx425 you were running on the 3950.
@@Northern_Farmer ou the bigger one. I've been trying to talk my grandfather into getting an stx something with a 3 point and pto so we can run a grain cart on it or run anything with a 3 point hitch but unfortunately he doesn't see the purpose in getting another articulate tractor we currently have a bareback case 9380 we love it but it would be nice to have a second articulate incase the 1 goes down cause our other tractor is an agco allis 9695 and it really struggles with our grain cart in wet spots
@@Northern_Farmer yeah our 490 is too light as well and the damn bearings are constantly going out, it makes sense why you upgraded. I'm looking for something new but it's on a long list of equipment I need lol.
Good to see dad going strong
Well a squeaky seat keeps you awake🤣
What I wouldn't give to see some dust! It's amazing what those two big tractors can get done in a day.
Love to see disking now and other big big tractor .
Love these plowing and disking videos! I could watch them for hours.
Those big disks and big tractors sure like to eat the acres!! Great weather to get fall work done too. Thanks 😊.
Your welcome
The camera work while running the machine is impressive.

I shoukd have a few coming up soon
@@Northern_Farmer Cool, I get notification everytime you post, I look forward to seeing them !!
I just found your channel I love those Steiger tractors that's what caught my eye nothing beats a Steiger
THOSE HARROWS DO A NICE JOB ON THE FIRST PASS YOUR LUCKY YOUR WEATHER IS HOLD CLEAR TO GET THE FIELD WORK DONE
This is quite awhile ago...about a month ago
Those disks are sure doing a good job on working down the plowed ground and plowing up the other ground also
Looks like the discing is going well...doing a nice job

That tractor just hums!

Welcome to the channel
I bought a 55 gal drum of 15-40 about ten years ago, still working on it
Good to see how you black it over.
Thwts how we do it
Nice to see your dad disking Tyson
Wow nice discs
They took a beating on the rocks on that canola stubble...I didn't film much of that
@@Northern_Farmer oh I didn't notice that
Haven’t had any luck with the soap bars keeping mice out.I think they like it. Thanks
Got it all ready for $23 canola!!!! Lol. Been putting off the visit to see about inputs for next spring. I suspect there'll be big increases.
I'm not seeding to much canola next year...wheat barely oats and peas
Fertlizer is insane right now..I'm hoping it goes down in the spring
@@Northern_Farmer fertilizer is over double a ton right now from what I paid last spring. I booked canola back in September for this coming spring along with the chemical. Right now I've saved quite a bit.
My chiropractor would love me after watching this video. My back hurts for you
Lol yea ..but it wasn't as bad as usual
Worked up pretty good 👍😎
Yup..nice seedbed
Try peppermint oil in your cabs to repel mice. 8 bucks on Amazon. Worth a try.
Works good. The wife told me to try it. Works better than mothballs and smells better too.
It seemed you were going on the same direction as plowing. I would have expected subsequent passes on a bias or did I just miss evidence of a different direction?
First pass you have to go same direction..way to rough ..second pass we went at 45 degrees
Is there a reason that they seem to do more chisel plowing down south in the states. But up north they do more mullboard plowing. Or is it more of what you like? I know the soil is alot blacker up north then down here in the southern states.
For working up old grassland Hay land..plowing is the way to go...but on stubble chiseling is the best..in my opinion at least..
How you going Tyson. Those discs did a great job on the stubble, and the ploughed land. Take care see you next time.
Thanks
Great video Tyson good luck disking

Does your wood stove keep up on the coldest days pretty good? Looking at putting one in our 40x50
Not to bad

It's a special edition..these tractors came out of the original steiger plant in North Dakota..not very many of them around

Big tractor power!
I like your stx 450 did you get old smoky fixed. How many acres in that field
Old smokey is out till next year
Just for the hell of it you should try your heavy harrows across that. Man I was amazed how amazing of a job mine did on any sod lumps and rough spots just blew them away
I am going to run them across in the spring..I should have used them this fall but oh well..ran.out of time
@@Northern_Farmer Ive used my McFarlane's after plowing and they drag around a lot of dirt and then disc after....way smoother.

@@Northern_Farmer the bucket traps work I can attest to them got them in our shops and haybuildings
@@jwhitley101whitleyfarms9 yes I have seen those
600 acre field! Behave! That's a farm in the UK! 😁
UK farming is so different from North America. My cousins have covered 600 acres of hay between 2 cuts on 300 acres
Is your 450 the same as the 450 (other than triples vs tracks) that Larson Farms have?
Sane just older
those plowed fields look awesome. done a nice job hey?.
Not to shabby
How long ago was this filmed? I would think you are in winter by now.
Early October
R u planning on leaving the triples on the 450 when you have to replace the tires or just gonna go with the duals?...great video Tyson
Not sure yet

It's all pretty flat so not really
There would be no moisture left firvthe seed if it was done in the spring
We don't fall seed here
That works up nice after a plowing!! What will I plant next year? Are u drier than normal there?? We are here in Kansas!!!!
Gonna be wheat barely and some oats
Northern farmer 10-4...
Try a couple of Irish spring soap shavings under the seat, should keep the mice out.
Done all that
Says only a day late!! Not sooo bad lmao👌👍
Why disk in the fall? More wind and water eroison and the frost will help break up the plow lumps
I don't want to dry it out in the spring...I'm just taking heavy harrows and then seeding
@@Northern_Farmer do you have any frost in the ground yet?
@@peteragnel509 long time ago
Nice 👍
How many acres did you guys get plugged this fall
I think it was just under 500
Very nice
getting it done, good stuff
What brand disks do you have I think i see a john deere a case and a sunflower and which brand do you find to do a better job
IH 490.....caseih 3950 and John deerre 230 the 3950 does the best job the john deere vthe worst

Need to find j.i. Case 4 bottom plow for 770 case!
I did pull a 3 bottom with it when I was like 14. It was a old steel wheel plow
What's the old building in the beginning of the video used for?
It was a old house
It's the dead mice lol
Where in canada are you from im from saskatchewan
the straw is what goes on the WD 40 can,
I guess you can call it a straw
@@Northern_Farmer Down here in Michigan where I live that is what we call the red plastic gismo. I enjoy your videos keep them coming.
Only thing I really hate about plowing in that first pass with the disc
It's not bad at all with the triples
@@Northern_Farmer have to get me a tractor with some haha
not worried about dirt blowing?
Naw
We always tried to dics plowed ground at a 45degree angle at most usally at 22.5 degrees
We did that on the second pass
Has your dad always been a farmer?
He used to drive ambulance back in the 60s
Maybe it’s time to get a bigger disc behind the 450
Big enough

You mean miss Monique lol
@@Northern_Farmer yup lol my bad
Why so many discs?
My dad still has his old john deere..barely uses it anymore....our 490 is kinda light so we bought the 3950 case which is better in rocky conditions
