I could watch just the D11 working all day.

Thanks for your explanation of the various processes going on Matt. All very interesting.

thank-you for the clear (excellent) explanation and walk through of the gasser and its mechanisms. First-rate. Keep em coming!

Thanks for helping out with some explanaations and definitions. I'm learning more with each teaching session. 🙂

On ya once again Matt, love the time and effort you put in. Thanks.

Thank you Matt. Very informative. Just love your videos.

Great video again Matt . Thanks for explaining the progress

Fascinating explanation. Thanks Matt.

My first encounter with anhydrous wasn’t a pleasant one. I was just a kid at the time. My father was filling the applicator tank as I was walking up to where he was working. Next thing I know I’m on the ground gasping for air and my throat and nostrils were burning. The wind had changed and I walked right into the fumes. It only lasted a few seconds but it basically knocked me out. I never got close to the tanks while he was filling up again until I was older and understood how dangerous it could be.

G'day Matt great video and good to see the 555 on the kelly chains

Another good video, thanks.

Good stuff as always

Appreciate the explanation on the “development block”.

great detail on the whys and hows

Great vid boys

Cheers from mid north coast just a beef farmer thanks for food for thought with chic peas and gas we used to grow cow peas for nitrogen as for regrowth trees that is global warming 😆

Hi Matt Thanks for the explanation on the gas I have seen it many times in videos but I can understand how it works but do you top dress your crops when they are up nice to see the dozer sub soiling making it look easy work for it

@thejacksonbrothers

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Simon, we don’t usually top dress but we do whack a fair rate of starter in when we sow👍

Seems like your gas/liquid isn’t getting deep enough or enough cover over it once in ground. I know you want it ideally in the top few inches of topsoil where the roots can use it but what if it was added to dozer rippers about 1 foot down the shanks? I get that the spread of the rippers is wider than the injection discs but you’d be getting two birds stoned with the same joint. We use urea for our fields just before a rain or irrigation.

Enjoyed getting into the nitty gritty of gassing, any up close explanation of machinery used is of interest

Matt & team Really enjoy the content as someone who grew up in agriculture and now have city lifestyle. You explained the $ of buying liquid nitrogen v's urea and the % content, just wondering on the maths of how much nitrogen stays in the ground versus applying urea that makes it a better proposition Cheers Peter

@thejacksonbrothers

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks peter, I’m not sure of exact figures of how much is lost when applying it but it would still be better off due to the higher percentage of N, as long as conditions are acceptable👍

In our area spreading urea on the surface doesn’t seem to work very good so it goes on with the air seeder in a separate band. Must be because of our lighter low clay soil

MM77 👍🏼👍🏼 Approved

Looks like nitrogen prices are double or more the world over. Surprised how little you use 100 units per Ha ( like 40 per acre) would be nothing in the UK. Surly you must add some more when the crop is growing ?? Can see why you use the gas as quite a cost saving and the urea granules probably wouldn’t find much moisture on the top anyway?

Matt why don't you guys run duels on the tractor's besides the 555? Great video as always stay safe matt

Thanks Pete! We used to run Duels more but they aren’t so good in the rocks as rocks get wedged between them and damage the tyres👍 the Steiger works well with the big singles😁

you should mount a camera recessed at the top of the blade so when the blade is lifted you can still see. i would do 2 on the outer edge of the mesh so you have a nice panoramic view. you could have 2 screens like mirrors in the cab. and i would also put 2 on the rear for ripping etc. feed them to the same monitors but switch at the push of a button.

Yeah......

IN america we have what is called tooth chisels - rippers - that just hook up to the back of tractors - 100 Hp or more - that is 36in / 48in long - and yu can get them from 4 to 10 in line which would be about 7 / 8 / 10 feet wide - how hamned hard is the dirt there that a plow such as that - which would do a lot more in less time - would not work - those dozers go so slow - thats ODD ? ! ?

You guys could use some rain it looks like!

Wonder how that deep ripping will improve the yield in there.

Matt,is there a fine for taking down trees on farm land without permission in Australia? I live in North Carolina so not sure what you can do there. Started watching your channel a few weeks now and enjoy all things y’all do. Y’all’s very hard worker’s

Not sure if it is related but Incitec has been convinced by the government to continue operating its urea manufacturing in order to keep our diesel fleet running in Australia after China stopped exporting it. Incitec is now producing urea as fast as it can , and as ammonia is used in the production of urea, maybe that is affecting the supply of anhydrous ammonia and therefore increasing the price this year.

Does the running costs of the D11 for ripping work out cheaper than a high hp tractor for ripping in the long run?

@djeity

2 жыл бұрын

He said in a previous Vlog that the D11s use 100L/hr of diesel, which is running about AU$1.60/l right now I believe, so that's $160/hr not including man hours, wear and tear, or other items. A D11 has a width of 2.8m and the ripping speed looked like maybe 8km/h, if so that's 2.24ha/hr or 5.2ac/hr, which works out to AU$30/acre in fuel costs only. With that said they have the D11s and got them for a song, whereas a "high HP" tractor would be $500k used.

Hi Russell, it’s kilos per hectare but at 100% nitrogen. So it takes about 120kilos of anhydrous ammonia and 200kg of urea to equal 100 units if that makes sense👍
