DMI had the plow game down. That’s a beautiful plow!

Designed and Manufactured with Ingenuity is what it said on my DMI plow. The hitch on mine lacked 'Integrity' so the local welding shop/ part time farmer rebuilt it to withstand 300 hp (5 bottom) No reason to have to fix things more than once was his motto.

We pulled a DMI 12 bottom with our 300hp or so 8550. What we had they called "over engineered," it was huge, really overly heavy duty. It was a site to behold. Hard to imagine something didn't go wrong during production of yours for a hitch of all things to need welding. That must have been a big job

​​​@@heatmoon 8-18s was a good match for our 8650 in our soils.There were a lot of older (white) small ones that the front end ripped out, center beam was butted up against a much thicker flat plate and welded on.The hitch offset and pulling from below not hard to see why some failed. The welding shop had just finished doing another one before mine. Had a 4440 on it when it let go. Flat steel where 2 large angled pieces tying it together made it much stronger.

I love the smell of freshly plowed dirt.

Very neat to see this big bud at work.

Everyone loves plowing videos. There is just something extra special about it that everyone enjoys watching or doing. Seems like a lot more farmers are starting to go back to moldboard plowing the last several years too. We have driven through North Adams MI and the surrounding area several times. Never saw this tractor, but would have been cool to. What does the 50 suffix stand for in Big Bud tractor model designations?

Nice on the DMI. The reason is so wet is this was a plow day planned for the last weekend in July on the Saturday and it rained 3 inches the night before so it was postponed until the next day and it was just about dry enough to run out there. People traveled from all over the country to be there and they wanted to try to run surprisingly they ran a Degelman pro-till right behind the plows and the ground melted out pretty good with just one pass

I love the sound of the Detroit engine

I plough with a 6 furrow reversible kverneland plough pulled by a new holland T7.270.

Would love to know how deep he's plowing. There's nothing like a Detroit for turning fuel into noise. I had a 4-53 N in a Dynahoe 190-4 and I got it near the redline once and thought I was going to rip a hole in spacetime. It was a great engine though. It could sit for 6 months and would be running within 5 seconds of hitting the starter.

When I was a kid tillage, plowing and discing was every year. Nowadays it's rare to see. Doesn't tilling the ground potentially help with more yield?

So much depends on the soil, the climate, and the values of the farmer. Tillage is easy, and does a good job of covering up mistakes. On level ground, it may not be too detrimental, especially in more northern areas. On lighter, more rolling soils, properly done no till will do a better job of maintaining soil health and gives good yields, but it take more intensive management and it is harder to hide mistakes.

@justthings6405

Ай бұрын

@@samb7652 No till requires a lot of chemicals to control heavy weed pressure and more fungicides to control foliar leaf diseases that are always left on top of soil surface after harvest. Several diseases overwinter on the soil and are ready to overtake the field the following year. Examples are tan spot in the wheat and white mold in beans. If you leave diseases and weeds to keep reproducing, then the weeds get "smart" and resistance is the next problem. No right or wrong answer, just depends on your crop rotation and type of soil.

That plow is somehow crazier than big bud.

I like this video especially because you included a look at the other tractors owners had use to pull this plow. They were debating how much horsepower the current Big Bud needed to pull the plow. A rule of thumb for handling a plow is one draw bar horsepower for every inch of plow width. If this plow can be widened to plow a swath 40 feet wide (480 inches) at minimum the tractor pulling it would need 500 hp at the draw bar. Likely 650 engine horsepower. That's a lot of tractor and power to put on the ground.

Very impressive

Good question. In the 1970’s farm equipment was getting bigger and bigger. Plowing was the main form of tillage. By the early 1980’s tractors reached a peak in horse power as crop prices fell, drought reduced yields and high interest rates hurt sales. Plowing quickly gave way to faster paced conservation chisel plows and no-till. By 1985 the 500-600 hp tractors all ceased production. 380 hp became top end for a decade until the mid 90’s.
