59 Year Old Tractor | Growing Sweet Corn For CHEAP
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2024
- Today we are taking the diesel John Deere 4020 out of the weeds and putting her to work. We rescued an old cultivator from the weeds of a neighbors place and got it ready for our sweet corn patch. We got new tires on the tractor and spaced them out correctly for our 30 inch rows. What did you think of today's video? Do you like the old tractors? What piece of iron should we use next? I can't wait to taste our sweet corn. Thank you so much for watching today's video! We will see you in the next one.

If you go on an adventure with Laura, you be surprised what you can find. - I do admire Laura and Grant using old equipment for their farm, rather than spending thousands on new equipment they can't afford. - you have a very good employee who seems he knows what he is doing, he is the sort that you can leave alone, and he will get on and do a good job.
Love to you all from Mike. ❤
They use top end equipment for their farm. This is a special plot made as part of an educational series on how to get started in farming. They bought and refurbished old used equipment to show how to get started.
Would you not be better taking the loader off you can always put it back on if required.
❤❤❤❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@user-tq1bh7ss7e the loader helps with balance .
Especially if they don’t buy John Deere Mexican stuff
You need to cut the end off the pieces you removed
that are plated on the square tubes and weld them on the other existing tubes because that’s part part of the structure to strengthen the remaining square tubes and keeps weather out and dirt buildup inside the frame. 😊
❤❤✌✌✌✌❤❤❤❤
They can do that later as they couldn't get into that plot because of heavy rains and as it rains the corn grows and they needed to get the weeding done.
@@scuss2 could have welded it on while it was raining.
@@beesbo1856 Agree. They could have also put the weeder back in the shop after the job outdoors was finished and welded it then. If I had a shop as big as theirs, I would be in it if I was not outside farming. It depends on their drive and determination. They don't have children to take care of but maybe they have a nighttime TV/UA-cam Habit.
Done cultivating back in the day with a 2 row on a 1938 B John Deere. It had no hydraulics. You lift it in and out of the dirt with manual lever. With no weed control we would cultivate 3-4 times a season starting when the corn was 2" tall until knee high. First time through was done in low gear, 2 miles per hrs. That's like 1 acre per hrs. The second time thru would could speed up a little and the 3 and 4th time you went 6- 7 mi. per hrs. 80 acres of corn cultivating was 7 weeks full time work for 1 person. But it was so much faster than horses because you didn't have to rest the tractor when you got to the end of the rows. A single farmer never had more than 80 acres of corn as the guys that still used horses had to pick the corn by hand and unloaded their wagons by hand. By the way, those horses were auto steer especially at the end of the day when they were going home. Enjoy watch your videos. Thankyou for sharing.
I'm located in Southeast Georgia, have worked all over the country as a certified TIG welder, fabricator, fitter. Ya know, from what I've found out, if you ever get a bolt removed, the best thing I've done is to use some anti-sieze. And if you need to get the bolt out from a straight through hole, get a heavy duty C-Clamp, such as an Armstrong brand, or an adjustable Bessey Clamp. You can weld a bolt that has been ground down on the circumstance then weld to a small piece of 1/4" or 3/8" bar, then place it on one end of the clamp, then on the other end of the C-Clamp, use a socket (like a 1/2" drive for a ratchet, with the open end towards the bolt you're trying to remove, so the bolt coming out, which was broken off on the tractor front end) so it can go inside the socket, and you'll still be able to tighten the C-Clamp. If you don't have a heavy duty Bessey Clamp, they can save lots of time when using them. This is basically the same thing as a bearing press, only it is portable.
Nothing better than a beautiful Nebraska farm girl with gorgeous eyes telling the story! Just PERFECT 👍👌😊
Grew up in the 50's on a dairy farm in NY. That is how we did our farming. An open station in the blazing sun working our tails off. Spent 5 to 7 hours a day in the fields doing exactly that. It was fun and hard work. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Need to put an umbrella on that tractor.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
My youth was the same story in Central Ohio. 8 to 10 hours trying to keep the tractor on-line. That's when I learned that there was such a thig as sun poisoning.
grew up in Dutch farm country in the 1980s. Farmers there would have drooled seeing that Deere, they were still using 1940s era tractors donated through the Marshall plan in 1985!
But......did you wear short shorts.....sleeveless shirts ? Or cover up ?
I do remember cultivating corn in the sixties with four row cultivator. Dad says we will know in the fall if you dozed off! 😆 yikes ! My brothers were sorta sloppy about cultivating as they were raking hay all over the place, so I did a lot of it! Girl Power! You go Laura! I am now 69.
I live in NW Ohio and my family has been raising sweet corn the same way for the past 50 years exept we grow almost 20 acers of it. With almost the same tractor to, except ours is a power shift 4020. Awesome video!
My dad grew up on a farm near Okolona. Are you anywhere near there?
@@jedbench5887 ..I grew up on the family farm near Delta , Ohio.
How do you harvest the sweet corn there? In South Georgia we use a mule train and by hand. The mule train is the machine that allows the corn to get from field to truck then to cooler. All corn is picked,packed,boxes counted,and stacked by hand to a truck. 840 boxes per truck. Each box has 48 ears
Drill out the bolt or use heat then rapidly cool it down and use copper grease on both so they dont sieze up.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍✌✌✌✌
Yes drill it out. It will relieve some pressure on the bolt.
It was hard to tell from the video, but it looked like they had hammered on it so much the end was flared out, almost like accidentally creating a rivet.
@@kmbbmj5857 I thought the threaded side looked bent. If I have to hammer from the threaded side, I leave the nut on just at the edge where the threads begin. Smooth flat surface and usually you won't damage the threads.
When I started to watch this video I was only a little bit hungry. Now all I can think about is a plate of sweet corn, slathered in butter, and chopping down on it. One problem, I don't have any sweet corn around. And what a great video! Close ups of the process of caring for equipment, just for helping us audience people to appreciate everything. Laura, Grant (and company), your work is great.
❤❤❤❤❤❤👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Modern sweet corn is perfect without adding butter or anything else for that matter. Try Glacial or Eden, two of the very best white varieties.

You kids crack me up with your auto steer and air conditioned tractor cabs! I was a weekend farmer, farming my granddads Missouri farm. My uncle gave me Zero training, just told me to go hook up that cultivator and get out there and cultivate those 160 acres of soy beans. No umbrella, no auto steer, no air conditioning and a warm jug of cloudy well water. All this was after milking of course. The year was 1972 and I was 11. Could barely push the clutch all the way down on that IH 560. Don't get me started on combining fescue with that old IH combine with Zero training from my old crotchety uncle! I still don't talk to him. Your channel makes me nostalgic. Enjoy these days you young Wilsons.
Unc probably learned you how to work
I grew up on the south plains of west Texas, and I was in the 8th grade when we moved up to 6 rows from 4 rows all on 40in
row settings. We were stepping up to the big boys. I miss that 4020 and all we did with it. Those were some good times. 🚜🇺🇸🚜👍
Remember to weld on end caps to the spar to keep things and water out so it lasts longer, as the old ends were.
Copy that comment!
I was going to say this, also the endcaps add some strength.But most importantly end caps keep the wasps from nesting in your equipment!
@@AncientMechanic64 and the mice that Laura fears!
😁😁😁😁👌👌👌👌👌👌
After welding in the same place so many times the metal get crystallized and looses a lot of its good properties. This can lead to an unsafe situation by pulling on it very much more.
You could work at heating the bolt with a Rose Bud tip on a Gas Torch set up, Oxy Acetylene. The Rose Bud gives a nice big frame front which is good for spreading heat and not blowing the metal away like a Cutting Torch can.
Let the bolt cool a bit. Then if you can get an Air Hammer you can use that to "hit" the bolt really quickly. The heat can cause the rust to weaken and the Air Hammer work like an Impact Wrench and shock the bolt loose.
Then again you might wind up drilling out the bolt from both sides due to the length. You won't have to drill the whole diameter of the bolt. Be sure to use lots of cooling fluid when drilling cause the bit will get really hot then dull very quick.
❤❤❤❤😘😘✌✌✌✌✌✌
Love old school farming! Reminds me of my youth!
Did you know that John Deere has gone woke? How do you feel about this?
@jvc110u about as good as them rigging their equipment to shut down so that only a tech can fix it. Supreme Court keeps pushing that case back cuz if farmers win it, John deere will fk over the auto industry something bad 😅
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
That one nightmare bolt! The one that your usual curse words just can’t describe. The one that still gives you a cold chill. Everyone has one. I would bet that you get as many helpful hints as you have subscribers!
I was right there with you at every attempt.
Maybe this time…?
Knowing when to call-it and move forward shows the wisdom of your family’s heritage.
Good for You!!
Thanks for sharing.
Air hammer works wonders . Makes life so much better. Happy trails.
@@davemyers3953 Yup, as a mechanic I fully agree. Air hammer would be the tool of choice here.
Another implement brought back to life by your restoration team ( Grant, Gage and you ). I truly appreciate you guys cleaning out a grove of unused equipment that would probably never be recycled.
You seem to truly enjoy tinkering, and then using old equipment. What’s next?
Maybe go way back in time and get a big horse, mule or a Clydesdale would be perfect and a plow and steer that plow by hand. I've tried it and it was not straight rows.
Pretty certain with the three of you together, you would without any doubts pull off big fields of this, its an awesome series of videos, and it makes me happy to see these older machines back in use as good as they where in the older times, good work all of you!
Hello! Greetings from Nicaragua. I admire your work and effort to see the fruit of your labor. Here in our country we can only dream. God bless you and your great nation.
Appreciate the effort you put into your content, it radiates passion and genuine commitment.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😁😁😁😁😉😉👍👍
Six row cultivator is three times what we used back in the 60s and 70s. Some rear mounted, some front mounted.
It is amazing the youtubers who are rehabbing the tractors that I could only dream about when I was a teenager because they cost so much. Now these tractors are being being cleaned up as well as their super implements because they get the job done in a wonderfully economical fashion as long as your within 640 acres or so.
My uncle had a 4020 growing up, AND I was also born in 1965, so there’s that. Cool tractor, always liked it! Great video!
6 rows wow! I've planted and cultivated many a row one row at a time on a Farmall 140, still have that tractor, love it.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Y'all make me feel old 🙂When I was growing up I spent many hours driving JD 720 tractors across many fields. We lusted after the new modern 4020s in vain.
Great job, Laura! That's the way I cultivated back in the 60's. I would also stand up some of the time. I used a 4020 for tillage, but cultivated with a JD 2010, all out in the open with no cabs. Those were the days. Thanks for bringing back great memories!😊❤
😍😍😍😍😁😁😁😁👌👌👌👌❤❤✌✌😘😘🤷♀🤷♀
If you would lengthen the top link on the cultivator the shovels would go in a little deeper and get more of weeds and the roots.
Now that's real farming when you have to drive down the rows without autosteer. Fully approve! I've been there, in the late 50's and 60's and it wasn't easy. Now you have an idea of how difficult it might be to go from hobby farming sweet corn to maybe doing more acreage and selling it.
Old.. I started on a farmall Cub. Never did have a cab. Wintertime we had a Heethouser to get some warmth feeding cattle. I so enjoyed your thoughts about the “old days”. Got a chuckle out of it, you grandpa is looking down and shacking his head, kids…. Keep up the great work, I’m living through you and the boys.
Even though new farmers may be a bit spoiled with A/C & auto-steer, your many, many, many, many, many videos show the looooong days/nights of hard work it takes to farm! Plus, the many hours it takes to maintain so much equipment week by week by week! Thank you for all you do to grow the USA! See what I did there?
❤❤❤❤❤
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Laura, you are adventurous, bright, and might be the most lovely You Tuber on record! Your videos are educational and refreshing and I hope you continue producing and sharing in excellent health for many years. Bless you.
Signed 81 year old Peter Vichi in north Idaho.
I remember in antiquity, tractors had a large umbrella for the driver to sit out of direct sun shine.
You guys are having too much fun. Using your old farm kit / lifting / hauling cutting / banging / wrenching. All in aid of a family giant sweet corn boil & brisket broil come harvest time. Love it.
Heartfelt thanks for the recent video, your unwavering dedication sets a high standard.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Good morning Sunshine! I enjoyed this episode a lot you guys. It was fun watcing you battle the 'ol girl and getting he out in the field with the revamped cultivator. The cultivator did an awesome job and all three of you did a great job doing it old school. Thanks for letting me hang out with y'all today. Have a great week!! Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
So much better than punching a clock everyday. love watching your journey.....
I'm a newcomer to your channel but I'm captivated! I'm a huge saltwater fishing youtuber follower as well as a van lifer follower but your channel popped up on my feed and I hit the play button. I've been hooked ever since! great content!
This comment means the world, thank you for being here !!
@@LauraFarms you should get a pair of black corduroys
Hi I love watching you and Grant farm. I'm 72 now and to see young people work
like you guys gives
me hope for the
future . I hope you won't mind me saying, I watch you lifting really heavy stuff. I did too most of my life. Now both my hips are shot. My Dad used to warn me ,but I didn't listen. Please think about it. Thanks for the entertainment and education
A lot of this is from old injuries or hereditary. Did you play football ? Wrestling ? Bingo.... primary issues leading to life long issues ! I was a distance runner from age 14 till age 50. Qualified to run the Boston marathon twice. My father always told me......If you dont quit that running your going to need new knees by the age of 40 ( he had both knees replace at age 60 ) I also milked cows for 45 years. To this date ??? No knee hip or back problems and Im age 70. In fact...last year I worked as a hauler for a lumber yard....often unloaded dry wall ( by hand ) at delivery spots. Primary....... dont abuse the body at an early age !
We used a pair of 4020s to cultivate with ten row 30" cultivaters back in the late seventies and through the eighties had weight racks on the front but no tanks or loaders .
They were gleco and johndeere RM brand cultivators, tractors were just a little light on the front but not unsafe . Good luck and have fun !
Also I remember scuffling corn when I was a teenager and we went through the corn fairly quickly to throw more soil around the corn plants.......BUT, that was more than 50 years ago, AND the corn would have been quite a bit shorter. Good luck!! Good work. Great videos every time!!!!!
I remember being in the fields 14-16 hours a day during cultivating season.
HI LAURA. 😊
So many greetings from Italy. You are very good ❤
This was the first time I've heard of a cultivator as cute. Thank you for sharing.👍
You people are just like the farmers i knew back in the day. I'm 63 . Make stuff work. Thanks and good luck.
Couldn't help but notice the wild hemp that was growing in front of the diesel 4020 :)
it's in every ditch and fence row in this state, 0 thc
Water hemp, it's a literal weed.
Great to see grant and gauge on camera more and more
❤❤❤❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍✌✌✌✌✌✌
Laura I give you and Grant an A+ on that job and GAGE
some of us lived thru those 'old' days you're talking about...it doesn't feel old!
It's nice to see such a positive attitude when it comes to working and getting things done 🤘
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Old Days, I remember back when the first farmer in the area to get a dual wheel tractor was the main topic of discussion in the church parking lot after services. 😂😎✌️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
Good morning,having a strategic view towards sustainable farming has been a key driver!
Grease would help attaching the parts. In Holland there is a saying: "the best helmsman are standing on the quay". Love your channel!
Thanks!
Ain’t it funny how large scale equipment back then is now being used to farm dinky little sweet corn patches
I’m 65 yrs old and back in the 70’s I spent many an hour cultivating soybeans with a 6 row cultivator on a 1968 JD 4020.
That is a very simple cultivator design which made it much easier overall. Nice. I am 70 yo last time I cultivated any corn I was 19.
Laura's looking buff tossing chains around.
I'm praying for a great harvest
Love the 4020, one of the best designs Deere ever made! You learn perfection without auto steering! Go to it you will be fine!
Wild weather! Great work on the videos guys!! Always pleasure watching what you guys are up to. Thank you for sharing your time! All of guys.
Love those weather video's !!!!
Cool clip of the storm!!😎👍
Love watching you Laura!!! 1956 H Farmall ,4 row equipment daylight till dark...it was just farming.🚜... you are so pretty and don't let Grant forget it.... lovin'it from Texas 💖
Thanks for sharing your life and your ideas and your farm with us!
Loved the video. The fight with the bolt was good, but you seem to have gotten stuck on one way to solve the issue. It can be drilled out and replaced with a new one.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the longer videos!
Yes laura thats the way we where brought up your neck got sore from looking back and forth yes imagine doing 500 acres gladyour doing some old iron farming keep up the good work both of you😊
nice to se you young farmers use older equipment like our forefathers did, this will make you appreciate the new tech farming the younger generation have been spoiled with.
Seriously.......Who wouldn't stop at Laura Farms Fresh Market along Interstate 80 in South Central Nebraska?
This is for my sweet corn,,,,,,lol!!!!!!! Thanks! Have a great day!!!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Tractor front end.
I have had to make row adjustments on some old tractors. First thing is a ton of PB blaster in the pin hole closest to the one with the stuck pin. Next try to get the pin to turn in the hole. Next try to get the sliding axle to move independently from the main axle. It is very possible that a bridge or shoulder could have developed on the pin. If that is the case, you need to get the parts moving independently from one another before you can work the pin out.
When I was working on farms a John Deere 8630 was a big tractor and a 4020 was still pulling planters. I hated planting season for only one reason because the 4020 would get hooked to planter and I’d have to use an old gutless Allis XT 190 to grind feed! With your bolt when in doubt drill through the center as large as you can and trim saws all blades to fit. Slice it a couple times from inside
Next try it with mule or horse system
Laura is the child of the corn! She who walks behind the rows!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😁😁😁😁😁😁
Love the sound of the old diesel 4020, just like one we had on the farm growing up. So many memories when i was in high school running the 16 row cultivator in fields on an old Case IH 7120 as well. Amazing that we don't see that as much anymore
Wow that’s confidence, cutting the frame before you had your row spacing setup and tested. Recap the ends of the frame as soon as possible that’s part of the frame strength.
Just curious...why do you work the steering back and forth when trying to start the 148?
@@steveb9151 Wondering the same thing.
Same here…😊
It relieves the hydraulic load (back pressure?) on the hydraulic pump, allowing the starter to more easily turn over the engine. I'm going to bet that her grandpa Curt taught her to do that.
That is what I have heard.
Rain makes corn....corn makes whiskey!
Who wants to drink that nasty rainwater anyway
Ya it is always about the alcohol.
Turning water into whiskey.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Water makes pipes rust!
In future, take a cutting torch, cut bolt
head off, burn a hole in end of bolt, have a water hose to cool bolt hole you cut, the heat expands bolt, water shrinks, repeat a few times, do that on both ends, it will come loose.
We did that on tracks on dozers, excavators to drive pins out with sledge hammer, we didn't always have porta power press stuff.
Stuborn bolts can sometimes come out when they are torch heated red hot, allowed to cool down completely and spray some liquid wrench then tap it through the hole. Red hot steel expamds the outer metal just enough to allow clearance when the bolt shrinks back down when cooled.
Been waiting many days for this. Wish Deere wasn't sending jobs to Mexico.
Sweet corn made sweeter with Laura 😊
She should plant some "Silver Queen"...Delicious and Sweet!😊
Canadian product- Moovit- have used it extensively restoring a 70 yr old car…never broke a bolt! Best penetrant that I have used !
Thank you so much for using the older equipment! Reminds me of my days in the field as a kid. Only difference all we used was Red tractors and equipment. Also thanks for sharing pepper with us more.
I used to do 2500 acres every year with a six row. No guidance no A/C, no nothing. Long hypnotizing days.
I get a kick out of you talking about “the old days” of the 60s. In my mind ”the old days“ are the 40s and 50s.
@@dougbowen4685 just what I was thinking. I spent days on an old farmall 450 with the iron seat on a spring. Farmers today have it easier, but out of necessity. They have to farm sooo many more acres with less people than we ever had on our farm.
@@brucecampbell1917i worked my grandpas small farm with pair of draft horses in the 70’s. We only did that for about 3 years, until he saved enough for an old ford 9n tractor he got from a friend. we only had about 6 acres to farm back then, but it was great land in central indiana. I cant even explain to my nephews what that life was like. I miss it dearly.
I worked on a dairy farm in Vermont, after school and weekends, back in the 70’s
Spent a lot of my youth riding along on grandpa’s JD 60 cultivating 3 rows at a time. Those 2 lunger poppin’ John’s had a rhythm all their own…
Right? I was born in 65 😅
Yum…sweet corn! Good job cultivating with the old school equipment!
I really like you guys emphasizing “safety first”!!!
When I was a kid on an 80 acre farm all corn was done with a 2 row system planter and cultivator with a B farm tractor 2 to 3 times a season.
Drill out the old bolt.
Now you got a tractor and cultivator I know sme thing about . My uncle Had a tractor and cultivator like yours . Tou are the corn was a little tall . You did not break any off . You did not plow any under . Good job all . Love to see old stuff being used , Thanks for sharing . Seeya
I'm impressed with what you and Grant can accomplish. Hopefully the sweet corn you harvest will bring delicious meal at the table. 😊😎👍
The old machinery and tractor still does the job....Good to see you using older machinery...well done...Stay safe you all and see you on the next one
Go green!! Always enjoy catching up with you guys!! Nice place!😊
Did that back in the '70s on a smaller scale, Dad's Ford 4000 3 cyl and a two row cultivator. We called it "plowing corn" maybe because you did some of that too haha. My uncle had a 3020, a big tractor to us! You three can do (almost haha) anything, keep going!
Great job Laura Grant and Gage beatles don't get it first lol them big beatles can't wait for next video thank you all
I am really glad to see Laura keeping Grant and Gage motivated and moving in the right direction! Love your content, and looking forward to more 👍
This is the kind of farming we did when I a young guy in the 60s-70s and I always loved it. You guys all did an awesome job. Cool video. 👍❤️
Laura,
Great to see that you are getting a lot of rain, keeping the wells off is a big money saver. Watching you use a somewhat older cultivator brought back many memories to me of spending many days on my dads Farmall H with a two row cultivator that mounted on the tractor, my dad had a four row that mounted on his Farmall Super M. He farmed about 400 acres of row crops, mostly corn. Back in the day, i.e. late 1950s we would go over the ground 4 times before we planted and then another 5 times, counting planting before we were ready to start the wells for summer irrigation.
We would (1) chop stalks, (2) disc (3) plow (the H would pull a two bottom 16 inch mowboard plow and the M would pull a 3 bottom 16 inch plough) (4) harrow (5) plant, we had a 4 row planter,(6) when the corn was about 4 inches tall we would rotary hoe, (7) first cultivation, (8) second cultivation (9) third cultivation which was when we ridged the corn rows so we could run irrigation water between the rows and (10) we would apply liquid ammonia nitrate. Then pull the irrigation ditch at the high end of the field and we were ready to start wells around early July.
Quite a bit different than what you do today. In our spare time, we raised 40 head of cows that provided us with calves that we feed and sold for beef and also 10 t0 15 sows hogs that provided us with around 100-125 pigs that we also fattened and sold on the meat market. We kept pretty busy.
All of our tractors were completely "open", now AC and no heater in the winter. In the summer I had a killer tan like yours.
A different life than now but one that I would not trade for anything.

I drove west on I80 thru Nebraska a couple of weeks ago. Eastern Nebraska looked so familiar. I enjoy your videos.
Hi Laura and Grant. I get my sweet corn from the local college farm store. They get 2 crops. They plant first in January and have corn through the end of August. 75 cents an ear or 10 bucks for 10 pounds. Yummy. I think they drip water irrigate instead of pivot their limited fields. Enjoy all your videos.
