Moldboard Plowing with Farmall 55A and modified Ferguson 3/12. I shot this with my GoPro so the video is much more clear and stable. Please comment, rate, and subscribe!
Can't beat those first generation 55a tractors mine is 9 years old. 2 wheel drive with loader. It does way more than it should and has never had anything other than grease oil and filter changes.
Deborah Flint I have a 7’ rotary tiller and 7’ 3pt disc harrow - the issue with the harrow is weight, it bounces around quite a bit and doesn’t break the clods or smooth the soil too well. That’s why I bought the tiller. Thank you for asking.
Deborah Flint we are located in the United States in southeastern Pennsylvania between Philadelphia and Harrisburg. I predominately grow vegetables for my family and livestock. This field was a cornfield that has been fallow for 3 1/2 yrs that I will converting to pasture land for my pigs and chickens. I also plan to raise turkeys in the coming year as well.
Boy , thats a lot of enterprises. In our area ,Canola,Wheat ,Lupins and sheep for wool and fat lambs are produced. Great to receive your replies, Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Same here, has been a great workhorse. Made hay with it this year.
Heeeey....that GoPro, that your wonderful wife got you, takes a superb video ;)
Nice! ✔
How do you level these fields out after ploughing as they look pretty rough ?

Where's the video of the smoothing out process?! Sitting on the edge of my chair waiting!
In the spring I’ll use the tiller to create a smooth seedbed and I’ll definitely video and post that ... stay tuned Eliza.
