Nice to see ole tractors plowing, sure has changed in the last 50 years, over 60 years since I was involved with plowing. Most of the tractors I was familiar with only pulled 2 bottom plows, some had 3 bottom, our area in Michigan had red clay soil.
Great video, thanks for uploading. Where I'm from (Eastern New Mexico) we call that type plowing as deep-breaking and the plows as breaking plows. Most farmers had a reversible plow and it was common practice to deep-break every other year.
Great stuff and I bet everything smelled fantastic. Love the smell of freshly turned ground. The steam engine, of course, but the fellow on the Ford with the two-bottom plow with his hand on the hydraulic quadrant really got to me. Might as well have been my Dad.
Great memories,about 50 years ago when I was about twelve years old I plowed with a J.D 4320 5 bottom,loved that tractor.my family still has that tractor!
I went to tech school in the u.s. Air Force at Chanute Air Force Base. I have heard that it is now shut down. Boy it was cold as anybody's business in that winter of 81. Marching to school every morning from the barracks was a wake up for sure
That Case steam tractor was great. And pulling a 10-bottom plow, nonetheless. I've never seen a steam tractor at work. Sounds a lot like a steam locomotive, and pumps out a lot of coal smoke, too.
Good thing the plow rigs were not being scored on the job completed! Some of them looked to be barely scratching the surface. But, good video, nevertheless. Great to see some of the old tractors at work, running well.
What's with all these people in the butt buggies that keep inching up to the furrow the last plow just turned? Not to mention all the spectators close to being run over.

"and this is one of my favorites, an old Case steamer pulling a 10 bottom"......you're not alone there! Great vid.

Great to see all these old girls still working. My favs are the Screamin' Jimmy Olivers and the big Case steamer.

1206 tractors rock!
Great video Mike but scary watching all those people so close to those machines.

Really liked the olivers.
That is an insane amount of golf cars

How do the tandem towed tractor setups work?
The number of golf carts to the acre was matched only by the number of beer bellies. Does that say something perhaps?
Lol if it makes a difference I did not rent a golf cart and did a lot of walking.
Good for you :o)
Seems that the older equipment works better than the new stuff.
I enjoyed the tandem tractors, was not too fond of the Oliver with the open exhaust.
Is that how they used to do it before the manufacturers got into the bigger articulating tractors?
Keith Brettell I think it was an aftermarket thing you could get, still really cool though
With all of those different tractors brands, how many different plow company's were there?
Liked the video, glad you didn't cover it up with music.
Gotta love those 4020's powerful tractor but not too big n bulky...

Very annoying indeed
Too many people standing around. Too dangerous. Other than that great video of some great tractor action,

Plowing and them golf carts and hordes of watchers packing it back down.one blown engine would get half of the crowd.
