Hello from California, Central California. We grow lettuce, tomatoes, grapes, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, marijuana, cherries, apples, strawberries, green peppers, almonds, beets, artichokes, I can keep going. And so well, the widest we go is about 30ft. When we seed its usually 10ft.

Never could imagine a farm this size here in EU. Those carts are absolutely massive!
So pissed, I grew up on a tiny 40 acre farm, left it as a teenager, now living an office job in the city and I see shit like this. You guys have the coolest jobs in the world and I'm stuck behind a desk. Not sure I want to go back to bucking hay or straw into the back of a 1967 F150, but I don't like sitting behind a desk to make money.

With how light that thing is that might be more of a curse. There's a good reason you have big 4wd tractors on large drills like these; they need the extra size and weight. All the horsepower and torque in the world doesn't matter if you can't get it to the ground effectively.

Absolutely agree we did the same thing waited till everyone was loaded and ready to go and all six rolled out together that way when we had to hit the road we only needed to escort once if someone broke down everyone is there to help out and it helped in the field too looks awesome Mike I wish I was there man have fun stay safe guys
“Don’t start by the road...” That’s the rule here in the UK, back in my day when using even a 4 metre seed drill, and for exactly the same reason. A lovely piece of video insight into how things happen all the way across “the pond”. ........and then stop, and check the depth. Brilliant. Thank you
Happy seeding! 🥳🥳🥳

I remember seeing loading spot for the drill too during harvest. Low to mid 30s wheat barley. Half the price as 10 years before. Jimmy carter embargo on Russia, ww wont sell to you? Devastating. Now I grew up on a 2500'acre small grain farm with so so 6 pack hired help. We used a Haybuster with huge hoppers and a melroe. There was no calm only lack of skeep and pain from loading hoppers. At least with harvest it's over win or lose. Those Gleaners hammered through the small grains. They made those 427ci diesels scream but never quit. Dropping the chisel plow in after was crazy
Wow just wow, as a massive jd fan myself here in Holland. I can’t believe my eyes so much beauty I wish we got those jd’s here 😖

We have already had our first field fire in our area last Saturday and since the fire started in the middle of an field where actually no work was being done the speculation is that ignition was either caused by quads, a dropped cigarette butt or the sun reflecting off a pc of glass. 🔥💨🔥💨🔥
