Back in the late sixties, at 13,I was in the seat of a John deere 4020 with 5-16's. Plowed all day and into the dark. Best times of my life! Morris Illinois. Thanks

Wonderful machine and equipments be blessed you're inspired.Glory to God.

Versatile nice tractor Canada

Beautiful black dirt there.

I like to watch a tractor plow a field. It's a fascinating sight. I love the smell of raw plowed land and burnt diesel fuel.

Nice to see someone who knows how to drive an on-land hitch.

The Challenger is lovely and quiet.

A guy has to love plowing. I am amazed there are no seagulls. I farm west of the twin cities in Minnesota and anytime we are doing tillage we have seagulls everywhere.

I think back when I was a kid in the 80s we had a 806 with a 4 bottom a 986 with a 4 bottom and a 1066 with a 5 bottom and some rare days we would have 656 with a 3 bottom. All plowing at max speed of 3 miles per hour. That one Delta tractor and plow gets more done than we all got done all day.

It depends on the mess you're making.

What is it about plowing videos that is so interesting to watch? My dad always plowed his garden to cover up all the grass clippings he out in it all summer. I think that’s why I enjoy these videos.

Thanks, I thought moldboard plowing was totally gone,disabled arm vet from 80’s used to help during high school always fun.

Moldboard plowing is cool👍😉 seeing different tractor brand at work is very nice😁👍

boy they sure have some great looking soil there

Tractors ploughing - instant 👍👍

Mike, I don't know which was more pleasurable to the ear; the sweet mountain music or those turbocharged large-displacement diesels clawin' an' scratchin' pulling steel through soil.... Excellent video (again).

Amazes me how people maneuver with these huge implements. Watching thousands of years of knowledge with every pass is just incredible.

These Case rear tracked,m front wheel tractor are so awesome. If my long dead Uncle Dutch could see these working in the fields, I know he'd just laugh because in his farming world back 50's-60's, these tractors weren't possible ! His big tractor was an I-H F-20.

Ahhh. I can almost smell it

Nice to See then plowing! Ground Has to be turned.

I like Mike less videos on KZread from the imperial county California 👍👍🖐️🇺🇲🇺🇲

Great video Mike, old school moldboard plowing love it we still plow our few acres of food plots, keep em coming Mike

I grew up on a farm in central Indiana in the 70's and spent many hours doing this. Except I was on a JD 4440 with no cab. It had a white/orange umbrella over the seat and a corroded AM radio on the left fender. I was too short to reach the pedals and my uncle strapped a 30 lb bag of corn to the seat so I could reach! lol Many nights I could see my Aunt coming across the field in a pickup truck to make me come in. No joke, I was a workin' fool even back then. Liked and subbed

I wish more farmers plowed but these days for most itsnot practical I guess? Appreciate your time and efforts Mike 👌🏻.

I love seeing plowing videos. I used to molboard every year

Definitely a another great video from Farmhand Mike!! Thank you for sharing these amazing and great videos!! I really appreciate them!!❤

Que belleza... me encanta trabajar la tierra que lindos arados hermoso video!!!

Mike another great video. I love seeing moldboard plowing working. I can smell the overturned dirt in my head

Mike. I would like. To see them finish the ends!! I stoped farming in 1966. Jd 720 5 bottoms. Excellent!!! Ken

Great Mike!! Always fun seeing a variety tractors plowing.

Wow that"S a huge property. Love the open space and view of the land. It reminds me of a movie scene in NORTH BY NORTHWEST WITH CARY GRANT ! ! ! Great looking video..Added it to my favorite list.

nice :) looks like clayey and wet soil, ... little bit hard day to plow.

Yes Mike you were correct i really enjoyed your ploughing video thanks again Mike 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Hello! Plowing symphony!

Mike, another good video from you and thanks for it. I'd like to see that Versatile pulling a French Gregoire-Besson 18 or 20 bottom rollover plow and it would mean less compaction of the headlands.

That Versitile is a BEAST !

We've got 4 Chalangers running on our farm. Like them a lot. Tough as nails. 💪🏻

Back in the early 80"s here in greenville ohio worked for a big farmer Bill Mcowen , He had a 4786 IH turned up to about 550 hp and we pulled a custom dmi plow 14 bottom 16 inches wide , Was still way to much for it finally blew the transmission after about 120 hours of use .

Always enjoyed plowing

Full pull! 😉 Thanks a lot for the video! 😊👍🏻

That 550 is sweet👌 and look at how purdy that dirt is they are rollin up 👍👍 we got dirt envy here in southern Indiana 😂

Hey Mike Blessings To You All

@@fastsetinthewest no they would rather not have their entire field blow into the next County! I guarantee you that PhD behind your name is a lie because I seen multiple posts by you and every one of them you've proven to be a moron that has literally no idea what you're talking about! Style plowing is one of the absolute most destructive things you can do to your soil. First it tends to blow away but more then anything you kill off all your soil biodiversity by doing this!

Looks like some huge headlands to me

Agricultural machinery is a driver for development, generating employment, income and value-added for the rural and urban areas, as well as the national and global economy.❤

Great video! Love seeing that black dirt. 14 & 10 bottom plows, wow! I remember when I thought a bump from a 3 bottom to a 5 and 6 bottom was big jump. How the times and equipment has changed!

No till planting has taken over farming here in the Southeast

The best way to prepare heavy flat black soils

I LOVED THE MOVIE MATE.

I'm looking forward to the day when Mike shoots a video of a new Big Bud 700 out in the field pulling a 20 bottom rollover plow.

At 2:11 you said'' If you like farmin, I think you're going to like this video'' That should be your new catchphrase haha. Although ''That is one good looking tractor and grain cart'' is the signature Mike Less line. Great video.

many farmers truly underestimate the value of winter seasons. certain harvests can be easily postponed till the winter, and there is no mud in the winter as well. it also allows to do work steadily throughout the year. optimizing the return on investment.

Turning it over,in a big way

Big plows I have 2 16 inch with a 1951 John Deere A

We still plow alot of ground. Two on land six bottoms and a 10. All case IH

Listening to cvt tractors like the Rowtrac revving up and down still is weird to me. We always kept the RPM up to keep the pyro down on our old equipment.

I was hoping For some headland action All 3 of them together. Right? On each. Other's. Bumper? Lol.

I got a 135 Ferguson and 2 bottom 12 inch if they ever need help let me no.

They don't want you showing them up!

Do they have smaller ploughs for finishing the fields? Do they leave the furrows or attempt to fill them in when they are tilling?

Luar Biasa🙋‍♂️👍

How come they don't use reversible plows ?

plowing is awesome and remember don't drink and plow, it's so easy to do, but, yie yie yie oh brudda

What size bottoms?

I have a Versatile Deltatrack driving around near me in central east Germany. I just recently found out that it is the one of the only, if not THE only Versatile in Germany, might even be the only one in Europe. When I saw it, it was pulling a Kverneland PW 100-12 12 bottom turning plow. Btw, are all Versatiles so insanely loud?

Mike,really enjoyed.I like mold board also. Did I hear or read that Deere stopped making plows in 2023?

Why do modern plows leave such an unclean furrow? Doesn't look like they go in very deep either. Back in the day where we plowed in Michigan, we sucked it down 10-12 inches and it left a perfectly clean furrow.

One side plow?

What about pulling the old Krause one way disk plow takes a good tractor operater

What causes the plow to jump up and down? My dad has a small farm however 90% of the grain planting was done either before I was too young to remember, different farm, or after I left home and was married so I'm not that familiar with plowing. We mostly did hogs and stuff like that when I was growing up.

Surprised they aren’t using auto-steer …furrow lines are all over the place.

Great black dirt video! Do they use guidance and what's the moldboard widths and depth? What do use to smooth it in the spring?
