Fall tilllage in Iowa

[epstud74]

We also have an MRX 690...north Iowa..pull it with a New Holland 9882 with 485hp though. I've spun out before with that as well...only when the ground is frozen though.

Cant beat good ol cummins under a load sounds great

[deereman4700]

ive always been deere guy but the case mx seires always looked nice were looking at getting a case mx 240 or a 8940

[gman4099]

we are having problems with our mx 240 it takes for ever to start if it starts at all we put a 400 dollar fuel pump on it and we are still having the same problem if u have any suggestions just leave a comment here

[volff130]

@gman4099 did u check the fuel water seperator filters and the fuel filter

[364rooster]

@gman4099 check your water separator and fuel filters

[gman4099]

[acz370]

we had to do the same thing last year expect we have a Cat 45 so the tracks helped alot in the snow

[banshee8989]

Is that ground frozen? Nice tractor but I think it is a little to small for what your doing with it. It is really working hard and looks like it just barely has enough weight to pull that harrow.

[fordtractors4100]

@banshee8989 i think its hard pullin becua of the snow, usually a 240 could handle that

[fordtractors4100]

@fordtractors4100 because*

[generationll]

How about front duals?

[cbassfarms]

the fuel bill after that work out couldnt have bin cheap..ouch

[international1256]

put chains on!!

[fordtractors4100]

@international1256 ahahahah XD fuckin right, that would do the trick :P

[international1256]

@fordtractors4100 fuck yea it would

[fordtractors4100]

@international1256 nothing like a gd ol set of chains!

[international1256]

@fordtractors4100 damn right they r

[thunderbolt445]

It sucks doing it in snow but its kinda fun

[sdkfz162kingtiger]

warum werkst du auf gefrohrenem boden herum?!

[crevytune]

We didn't even get our fall tillage done. Shoot, we didn't finish harvest until Dec. 10th (2009). Miserable year.

[AlYassou3Rabbi]

We usually wait til the snow is gone to plant, lol

[GWL1961]

well I wouldnt work my equip like that be like combining in the rain, maybe u do that too..stupid

[thequietrebel420]

gwl1961: u look like a stupid idea... ya gotta do what ya gotta do... if the ground isnt froze and ya gotta get the work done ya dont have much choice...

[GWL1961]

that looks like a stupid idea workin a tractor like that in those conditions

[2188caseih]

hey imafarmer you are a retard because a johndeere that is the same size as that caseih wont pull it any better just the same as a caseih wont pull better than a johndeere or any other make of tractor

[workinrampage]

LOL is depends on the weight of the tractor and the balance of the weight and the size of the engine. Who would want to have deer shit anyhow. Cheap parts. Buy yourself an international.

[bjonesfarms]

Is that why IH loses there value so fast? lol

[workinrampage]

The more of something the lesser the value. Which means, they just last longer.

[bjonesfarms]

hahaha thats funny, that just made my day

[workinrampage]

Its a thing at my house. My fience's uncle is a john deer guy. So the whole family follows suit. I farmed for a few years and i really never drove an international tractor. Just semi-truck. I drove john deer on a daily basis. We have to biggest tractor pull in the nation right next door. We allways argue over the brand. Im always joking. When i do to the pull everyone is wearing green. I wanna be different so i go with international. Just like i can't stand Jeff Gordon.

[bjonesfarms]

haha.....yeah i was a jeff gordon fan when i was younger....until i kinda met him in person in the garge at kansas speedway.....i asked for an autograph and he walked passed me like i wasn't even there

[acz370]

i imagine that worked pretty good as long as the ground wasnt frozen. only thing that is bad is you cant get much traction. we have a cat 85c on a krause dominator chiesl plow. we tried in some frozen ground but broke it quite a bit but other wise if its not frozen it works well.

[waults]

For everybody's info, in the heavy black soil like Iowa, you HAVE to till it in the fall, if you till in the spring, it clumps up into pea sized marbles that make a poor seedbed. For some reason,which I don't really know, if you turn the soil in the fall, and then it freezes & thaws, it settles down. Then just pull a field cultivator in the spring, you get soft & fluffy black dirt to plant in. '09 is looking like another post-frost tillage year unless it dries out soon! Good luck fellow farmers!

[marhan251]

WIEM,jaka to męczarnia robić podorywke po kukurydzy,pełen szacun.

[imafarmer101]

should have got you a deere it would have pull it easy

[dasnorwin]

pff :D

by a New holland its easy

[russellcoight]

Atleast you'd have good power in that freezing cold air. Just need a bit more claw!

[olivertractor1650]

they r most like doing this to get the field till now because in spring they might not to get into that field do to water and mud. i have done this on that farm im working on in the marshy wet areas

[cooldudezach007]

holy shit that poor tractor wait till spring

[thefarminkid8760]

y would u try to disk rip frozen ground lol there's no point

[IHMan1066]

ive heard of snow harvesting but not plowing in the snow ;)

[DURAMAXPOWER101]

if he locked the diff. in it wouldnt spin

[BMAN4500]

its not the tractor thats the problem....i think is has something to do with going through the snow...and frost.....when you can just wait till spring....that MIGHT help

[generationll]

Maybe front duals would help.Or how about a nice big quadratrac.

[darcyironmaiden]

in the snow?

[wadidly]

You guys definately ought to invest in a bigger machine if you are going to use that ripper, and caseih100, that machine already has MFWA, hence the treaded tires in the front

[caseih100]

need to get font weel assist

[09g711]

stupid. wet bitch

[jicaseatitsbest]

you guys need a 305 on that thing your runnin the piss outa your poor tractor

[farmerboy184]

beautiful mx240 and what looks like a mrx690 ripper cant tell though nice work man..great video and great tractor.wish i could afford a 100,000 dollar tractor like that haha nice video

[r60f250redman]

y waste the fuel????

[runner4life1984]

Love that deep straight pipe sound!!!

[alvie2]

Apparently the gentleman in the tractor seat doesn't have to buy tires.

[benman431]

that thing is pulling like an ass

[EzraMyers]

i tried chiselen after it snowed, it didnt go to well. I kept plugging so i decided to quit because i wasnt really getten anywhere. i know how u feel, except i had a STX 375, so i wasnt really slippen

[saabolatic]

great sound out of that cummins!

[OBITRICER]

Gotta lock in that moisture!

[Farmerknowsbest]

Some years are more interesting than others, that is for sure! We've plowed many acres in the snow up here in Canada. You wear the points off rather quickly when the frost is deeper than 4 inches though. I've heard of many guys pulling disk rippers in 2 when they don't quit quite early enough. Great video, I really enjoyed watching that Magnum grunt and groan through the field

[gcwfblock]

looks like its working up pretty decent though. I've done tillage in the snow before. Its not fun

[kinser7220]

looks like its pullin hard

[65882Plus2]

I think h's working in the snow couse it fell before fall tillage was complete, Dumbass! I why is that not called tillage? I ripper is in the ground and its being tilled, thus its tillage. A poor job of fall plowing is better then the best job of spring plowing.

[ILCORNGROWER]

The MX sure does bark don't she, anybody on here that can sit around and talk like they have never had to do fall tillage in a little snow or imperfect conditions either has 20 acres, 15 tractors, or lives to far south to talk.

[cumminsboy071]

@ILCORNGROWER haha damn strait, i like plowin in the snow though cause the tractor really yells

[clayneubauer]

Anybody with a better answer to being a month behind all year is welcome to bring there equipment right out to help us finish up.

[CANFARMER]

Hes proving a point between a wheeled tractor and his CAT on tracks.

[bookem80]

I dont' call that tillage ,i would be ashamed to put on you tube

[Publiclnvasion]

why you working in the snow
