Thanks Mike. At the 5:00 mark, all manufactures take note from Claas on where the best placement of a muffler should be. Also no air filter to block vision.
I remember when tillage was plows, chisel plows, disks, offset disks, and coulter chisels. Maybe a V ripper or two. Tractors weren’t overly complicated. Didn’t require 500hp to pull a 32’ disk. Didn’t have 1 tool that had 2 rows of disks, followed by chisel shanks, followed by parabolic shanks, followed by cultivator shanks, followed by 2 more rows of disks, a stalk chopper, rolling baskets, harrow teeth, and finally packer wheels. That was 30’ long by 12’ wide, and took 650 hp and 5 acres to turn at the headlands. Then now you go over that with a new kind of disk that works 2” deep, 25’ wide, at 18mph that requires 400hp.
Mike do u ever come up to Canada to any shows , we have a outdoor farm show in Woodstock ont this months , it's the biggest in Canada , forage , tillage demonstrations all the new equipment equipment coming out
I guess lite till we planted 40 acres alfalfa one year rained 17 inches weeek later it was in Ky had a few gulleys lol swallow a round bale easy lol, then we planted 50 acres rained 2 inches over 3 days you could drive 60mph across the feild in a pickup like on blacktop
Thanks so much for making the videos of the Farm Progress Show and Half Century Shows.
Just excellent Mike so enjoyable to watch these monsters that work the field now days.
Great video. Best on UA-cam for this show.
Thanks for the compliment. If Big Tractor Power thinks so thats a pretty serious ego boost.

As usual a great video mike
Thanks Mike...Nice video....From Brazil.
Have to love the enigmatic head nod. That makes everything OK.
I always love getting a good head nod. You just don't give those to everyone so he must have thought I was the man of the hour or something.
Which tillage tool did the best job on that field?
It seems weird to see a Kubota pulling anything other than hay equipment. Don't see those on farms much here in Michigan.
yeah, same here. Never see em' at all in the fields here in southern wisconsin. Other than little chore tractors for larger properties.
Lot of cool tractors...///
The John deer tooll did the best job
Nice units☺
