    Seems just like an industrial sized soil aerator which is essential for good soil health you HAVE to work your soil in some fashion to ensure your fertilizer/manure and water can get into it properly so when it’s time to plant you have a happy healthy crop :) well done!

  • @nathancmartz
    @nathancmartz 4 роки тому

    You can run that machine over your alfalfa and you will notice a better yield. The seeding will last years longer. It will also split the crowns allowing the alfalfa to split off and produce more plants. We have been doing this for the last several years and it’s a game changer! You will want to slow down some to keep from throwing the dirt. Do a trial for yourself. You won’t be disappointed! We do it at least once per year but you can do it after every cutting if you wish.

    " Dont know why my tractor just shut off."
    NOTE FROM CASE IH SERVICE DEPT:
    Dear Eric: After careful examination of your tractor, our chemical analysts are baffled. It seems the tank of your tractor was filled with a carbonated substance having the same chemical and base properties of Mountain Dew. Please by advised that we have drained the tank and refilled it with Pepsi. The tractor is now running at its factory peak performance, which we admit will never be as good as a John Deere. Thank you for your patronage and stop frightening Sasha with the drone.

      @Drakkoo-yp8yl 4 роки тому +6

    • @silvio.zambon
      @silvio.zambon 4 роки тому +11

      Tilling is avoided by no-till farmers because it destroys the microbial universe underground by exposing beneficial protozoa, fungi, and other forms of life to the killing effects of sunlight, wind, and heat, alongside causing erosion. On the other hand weed control is much more difficult

    • @seansexton729
      @seansexton729 4 роки тому

      Yeah I get all your replies....... but when do you decide which option to go with?
      E.g. if cost is your goal does no-till supersede issues like compaction, weed control, or is Eric doing it because of the risk of erosion, lack of soil organic matter, climate and weather conditions later on in the year or because of traditional farming methods.
      Where I’m from all corn ground is ploughed for drainage and so that the weather breaks up soil leaving very little tillage needed for planting.

    Eric, tilling IS fun, when done with a tractor. Sixty years ago, I was doing what you did as a young man. Altho we used moldboard plows in Ohio then, not chisels or rippers. Yesterday I mounted the power tiller on my Kubota and today I will go out and till my sweet corn field. All 500 square feet of it. A hoe would be more practical, but much less fun!
