Sounds like great fun! The old ones are easier to operate and easier to repair. Thanks for sharing.

Well done

Watched this while eating sweet corn from a farmers market. Love seeing the antique JD implements!

Fresh sweet corn is the best. Not everyone knows the taste of sweet corn consumed within 12-24 hours of being picked. Thanks for watching.

Love your old corn planter. Most of the old farm equipment still does a great job.

Hello Wendy. Thank you so much for the encouragement! Yes we have worked hard for 4 years and next week we are taking our first weekly vacation with the whole family in 4 years. BTW, we love Canada....Canadian Rockies, Yukon and I also fish near Perth....beautiful lakes in the east.

So is my husband born in the 50’s.

I believe the seed driill is a 1944 model and should have 4 other seed spockets, that should have a place just behind the seat for the box witch held them when not in use, also

I was hoping that someone could ID the year. I was thinking it was older because it was pulled by horses...but not every farm could afford a tractor I guess. Is there a distinguishing feature that pointed to the 1944 model? Thank you for the information!

Beautiful country side and the corn looks so good!

I planted my corn 3 weeks ago this season and my lines are much better this year. String is not a bad idea.

JD and most of the big corporations have changed to be sure. But gone are the days where equipment is simple and built for the long run. The old stuff is best (spoken by an old guy!)

I recently got a 246 3 point 2 row JD and a 494A 4 row JD planter. Going to use them for sweetcorn and tight areas besides my 8 row that I normally use for field corn. I got the 246 so if my planter monitor lies to me and says a row planted and nothing grows, the 3point planter will be easy to use to replant a row or two. As I just got them, they are both set at 38 inch rows so I'll have to adjust to the 39 inch rows I plant now.

Why do you choose to use glyphosate on your field corn? Are you concerned that it will blow onto your other fields? Is the field corn what you feed your beef cattle?

@waardenburgfamilyfarm4764

11 ай бұрын

We use no-till on the field corn so I cannot cultivate to control the weeds. I think the uncontrolled weeds would greatly reduce corn yield. We do feed our beef cattle a little corn, but they are mostly grass fed. Thank you for watching. I've only been doing this for 4 years so I'm no expert at this point.

When I was born in 1942 Dad was farming 24 York County, Pennsylvania acres with 2 mules. In 1948 he added 47 more adjoining acres, a red belly Ford 8 N appeared with a 2 bottom 12 inch plow and cultivators. Pull behind implements got the wooden tongues replaced with shorter metal ones, his McCormack Deering 2 row corn planter went to 3 point lift with a local blacksmith conversion. David Bradley provided a 3 point mower. A Ford 850 was added in 1955, I was plowing with it and a John Deere 2 bottom 16 inch plow like yours without the tripping feature. Dad told me to only go deep enough to not hit clay, I loved to just bring up a little or orange color! He planted our corn, it's seat was still mounted! Was good to see parallel use of vintage equipment 80 years later.

Why didn't you get a old John Deere tractor to match the old equipment
