  • I finally got to run our new John Deere 2730 Ripper with the 9560 RT. We have covered about 1,300 acres already and it's been going good.

    I've been with you on this channel from day one. You keep making them and I'll keep watching. You have a great way of weaving the educational with the entertainment.

    Another great video, Zach. Love the mix of the explanation of how the implement works in conjunction with the action shots. Looks like the 9560 is handling it well. Congratulations on being done with combining!

    Thank you for always explaining the work you do. It's foreign to me because I've always lived in suburbs and have only seen what'd you would probably consider "tiny" farms.

    I've been binge-watching your videos from the first one on this week, and man, you have gotten so much better at it. Your explanations were always good, but your camera work is 1000 times better, and I love the action shots set to a perfect musical selection here.

    Greetings from Finland! Really like watching your videos, I´ve been watching your UA-cam channel past days while ploughing in the field with Case IH Magnum and New Holland T8040. It´s interesting to see how things work out on the other side of the world and see that we struggle with same kind of issues like problems with combine and mud :-)

    nice rig there. it is designed for the mid west farmer though. we use to raise a lot of irrigated wheat. i think the disc would plug, and drag piles.great video Zack.

    • @chasesblog

    Great video. Down here we plant as early as possible as well. Not so we worry the corn won't dry before harvest, but so we can hit pollination before it get's really hot. We're in mid 30s for CEC, and high calcium/pH soils.

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  6 років тому

      TwoHappyChildrenFarm Are your CEC numbers all that high?? We get in the 30s but more numbers are mid 20s. Our calcium numbers are big also and pH averages low 8s

  • @beaubrunsvold3167
    @beaubrunsvold3167 5 років тому

    I work for the green team. Made in Valley City, North Dakota. Similar models produced were the 2700 (Des Moines), 2720, and 2730. Updated/redesigned frame to handle the weight. In order to make room for the 2730, production of the 2720 was moved to a small factory in Iowa (Paton). Also where the "DB**'s" are made. Your options on the 2730 are 7Std, 9Std, 11Std, and 13Std. You can get rigid frame options but only on the smaller 7 and 9 standards. 11 and 13 are wing fold only.

    @easylooker4889 5 років тому

    Does this machine put a compaction layer just below the points? Down south here we disk only wet bottom ground and the disks create a compaction layer below the blades. We every few years run a subsoiler in a dry year to break it up which we sink a good bit down. You can physically see the ground bulging up several inches

    That looks like a good piece of equipment there. I like the 4 wheels on the ripper. We run a Case 870 ripper & it only has 2 wheels & there gets to be a lot of weight on those wheels. In soft ground they really sink in when you lift the ripper. We run both red & green tractors. Our main tillage tractor is a Case 485 & we run a John Deere 8320 on the planter & grain cart & we also have a 4555 that we use on the grain drill & the roller. Did you go drive the 9620?

  • @chadwinters6089
    @chadwinters6089 6 років тому

    Great videos Zach, My question is, why are you running your rear levelers in the fall? Wouldnt you want your ground mounded up so it could frost out and dry better for spring tillage? Just asking cause we found in our heavy soils in upstate NY that it seems to work better. I see you work your ground on a kidder too good man lol!! Oh are you going to the no till conference in Louisville in Jan?

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  6 років тому +1

      Chad win The soil definitely does dry a little nicer when it's not so smooth but we've found that it's harder to get a smooth seed bed in the spring. Each has their advantages and disadvantages I guess...
