Subsoiling on a Small Dairy Farm! Deep Tillage!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 гру 2022
- The 7810 John Deere gets geared up for fall tillage. First we put the duals on and then it’s time to get the subsoiler. My father talks about why he uses it and the challenges he faces while using it. Thank you for watching the video! Make sure to check out our other videos.

That is a nice cab, remember the canvas heat housers with plastic windshields.
Farming sure was fun in the 70’s. Of course I was a kid then.
That cat sure was a big help. Over the years I had a lot of supervisors like that. Again Thank You for your time and videos. Being a first generation German immigrant that came here the right way. My family was a farmer in the old country.
Nice sign or bench
Good to see there are still some dairy farms out there who are striving for the future while staying "small"
Good luck getting your field work done
After a day in a big city it's very relaxing watching your farm. Stay blessed guys
The kitten wanting to be petted while y’all were working on the dual😂
The pets are a big help!
That machinery looks right off the showroom floor.
The Regen Ag folks claim all the compaction comes from tillage operations. Rippers and plows compress soil creating the hard pan where they ride underground. Check out the Jon Stevens Maple Grove Farms and Young Red Angus channels as they have several years into their Regen Ag program and show a lot of hints. What I've found works/am testing this year: Winter Rye, Buckwheat, Black Lentils, and Blue Hopi Heirloom corn (14% protein vs 3% of many hybrids). Dive into those other channels, get some cover crop seeds, and set up a few test plots.
Your barn cats seem much more helpful than ours ever were. 😊
Love the Kitten, trying to help put the duals on! I believe the old subsoilers were only one shank!
You are great American farmers. Thank you!!!
Can you take us on a tour of your brother's "home" place? Can you interview him?
Heavy equipment and three point will test a fellow. I can't remember if hooking up or getting it off was worse, I know I cringed when you said you were taking it off, lol. thanks for the videos. I was talking to my 92 yo mom the other day about morning milking. Daddy left at 3am for his town job and mom and I milked before school. The memories are better than the real life experience, that said I liked it so much I paid for college milking mornings and cleaning and feeding in the afternoons.
Great video
Just found your channel. Great job! My husband and I really enjoyed your video!!
Hate to say this, but the cat stole the show. All of you animals seem to like you and that tells something about a person. Very good video showing something I had not seen before. Thanks!
Love your channel keep up the good work best wishes to you all from 🇮🇪 Ireland
I really enjoy your channel, you still do things the old way, with some new,love the corn picking, the cribs for corn and oats, reminds me of growing up on our farm when I was a kid
Love the cat wanting to help.
I'm not surprised those 4 big shanks makes the 7810 snort!
Can we talk about that awesome carved table/bench at the end by the quick hitch? That is amazing!!!!!!!!
It was great wasn't it.
And the cats like getting in the way, I love cats.
I’m guessing that the hubs for the inner wheel is larger so they can come off in case of a failure? I forgot how it’s done, our farm was sold in 1981.
I’ve seen a company that makes a tool for skid loaders for moving duals around. I think it had some rollers on it. You could probably build one in an afternoon.
The dairy I work on now, when I was there full time I spent a lot of time pulling a four shank Uverferth zone tiller on a hot 4450 with front assist. In the headlands where it was compacted clay the front wheels were off the ground a lot. On another farm I worked on we had a number 22 John Deere single shank with a mole on it that we hooked to a 4010.
Good thing you had that 🐈 supervising the job!! 👍😀
Brillion makes good equipment
It's always interesting seein' what you guys are "up to." I "tried" a Harbor Freight Tools cat. 1 quick hitch. Recently traded up to a "Pat's" Cat. 2 quick hitch and like it better. The lift tractor's lift arms can swing apart or together to match any implement's pin spacing with this hitch. Keep the videos coming---this may be Fl. but it's winter here too (and nothing "fills the bill" quite like a good farming content video in the evening...) But I DON"T think it'll snow here, so there is THAT!
Those quick hitches for the 3point are live savers. Great video see you next time.
My dad was always broke but after watching my little brother and I try to hook up while he backed up a tractor, he bought quick hitches for all our tractors. He worried about us losing fingers or smashing hands. Years later I went to work for the company that built the hitches in west Texas. Lee Agra
@@wayner806 yep, they are definitely worth it. We didn't have one for a while, then we bought a new ( to us) tractor and it came with one . We won't go back.
Great video again as always that 7810looks great and sounds good to 👍👍
See the cat was helping 😂
Cats are SO helpful!!
🤦🤦🤦🤣😂🤣😂
thanks for sharing❤
Great information THANKS
Brilliant video 💪🏻 🏴
I really appreciate the hard work you do. I grew up on a tobacco farm. Different, but hard work is hard work.
Love your channel and thanks for posting another great interesting video. All the best to everyone.❤
we have a 4960 john deere and we use a 6 shank and do all of our fields it helps alot in a drought year the roots go straight down looking for water
I see the kitty likes the duals too!! Getting big snow down there tonight or just rain??
Was the cat the Supervisor?? Keep up the great work.
Love the cat great tire man Cheers
Love the video! Hope to see them beautiful cows milking this winter !
Yes sir I hear you I am contemplating one of those specifically for use with my disk mower cut the time down from 12 to 15 minutes took it on to maybe 5:00
Duals sure can help pull heavy loads. I got to put on two sets of them for our two tillage tractors. They were snap on. Not the most fun to put on. Thinking about that kind of makes me think 🤔 why it hurts to get up out of a chair now. Fun on the farm!! Thanks 😊.
Love videos so pleasant to watch.
Great video!
Did I miss the actual plowing?
Same thing I did only band duals!
I'm interested as to why you had the dual tyres off the tractor? Never occurred to me you could run that type of tractor with the outer wheels off it.
Does your brother farm in the same manner that you do?
I have on my 4430 and my massey 1100
OSHA needs to have standards for cats working on tractors.
Will you be doing more of using this machine I would love to see
brave cat lol
I would like to see videos of your large Holstein bulls
👏👏👏👏👏
Somebody wanted to help!!!!
can you post more farming videos
Do you ever have to stockpile manure on account of too deep of snow?
I'm honestly surprised ya do sub soiling cuz I would assume that the compaction would be relatively light compare to other farms and the equipment they use on their feilds
I think he said the implement hasn't been used that much in the last ten years. I'm no farmer but I would guess that sub soiling isn't that important as it goes way deeper than corn or soybean roots need. Less deep tillage seems better suitable. No till operations plant seeds in a shallow groove and it seems to work OK. Probably moist ground helps a lot for root penetration maybe as good as tillage. But then again, what do I know about it. haha.
@@colorado1088 sub soilers brake up compaction deep in the ground especially when ya have big combines, semis, grains carts, planters ect driving all over the ground.
@@Blackwellll3066 Thanks for replying Ryan ...but my point is why worry about compaction not within the root zone? i.e. use shallow tillage?
@@colorado1088 cuz of weight.... with a corn feild ya could have 1-3 passes with tillage, 1 pass with planter, sprayer, combine, grain cart, semis, tractor with baler, loader or skid steer, semi, fall tillage and manure spreader alot of passes in just one season
@@Blackwellll3066 Dont become frustrated with me Ryan but will compacted soil below the root zone of a plant negatively affect the plant? Seems like compacted soil just below the root will retain more water for the plant. Like I say I dont know squat about it but find such farming detail very interesting.
You could put other arms on the john deere instead of using that Block then the machine is just that tiny bit closer to the tractor and it works just as fast as the Block
👍👏👏👏
I have a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell !!!
Your duals look bigger than the tires on the tractor
It looked that way to me as well. I always heard it was not a good idea to have less worn/larger diameter on the outside as it applies greater stresses to axles and bearings. Probably not as bad with axle-mount as would be with snap-on type, though.
Good stuff man not able to see much lol
👌
What state are you in?
What would you do with out a Bob cat or a four. Legged cat 🐱
So the subsoiler is just a break up compaction, I see.
Most of the modern subsoilers are a copy of the Yeomans subsoiler. P.A.Yeomans made them originally in the 60’s and 70’s, he was an Aussie inventor, his idea has been copied the world over. Regards from Down Under.
I wish I had a cat to help me put tires on haha
