Among my favorite childhood memories is that of my grandfather teaching me to plow with his Ford 8N and a two bottom plow. I’d give anything to go back in time and do that again.

I grew up driving a 4230, it was my cultivator tractor in the summer when I was a kid. My dad had it and two 4430s. That 4230 was a fun little tractor to drive.

I'm amazed how dry it looks. Yes, those calming times of pulling a 3-4 bottom plow. It's a calming drive around‼️😅💞

There supper nice tractors

You have that plow set up perfectly. Great combination of tractor and plow.

Thank you very much!

Thank you for your hard work small farms are fading fast

Nice video. My grandfather had a 4230 and he pulled a 5/16 International plow with it. A 4230 isn’t really enough tractor for a 5-bottom plow in tough conditions.

Spectacular!!. Congratulations!!💪👏👍💚💛🇺🇸

Looks like you had it set really good. It was doing a great job.

Awesome tractor. I drove 4230 in the late 70s but didn't have cab just a top.

In our ground 5 16’s will push a 4840 sideways in the heavy ground.

We pulled a 4 bottom JD plow for decades with our 4230. In cornstalk ground, we could plow at 7 mph! Keep the 4 bottom and plow faster!

Looks like a great team.

Last plow i pulled was a 10 bottom behind and 8630 with the 50 kit. Good times!

real decent looking job of plowing

Doing a fine job

Sweet

Nice job your doing. I don't think you need more bottoms

I’ll just watch

Aa bump up to a bigger plow, pulled three bottoms behind a 50 hp, should've started in the middle, be easier to level the field when you disc it, and when yo start in the middle and disc it you can double disc and get a better cover up of the crop material

We switch every year going in then out

Not a farmer here. Is there another implement that is used to bust up all the sod? Level it out?

We traded a real stong 4020 for a 4230. It wouldn’t pull the 5/16 plow. We traded for a 4 /16 and it would pull it fine. The quad range just robbed too much power

What year is the 4230? My dad bought one new in 1979 or 1980. I can't remember

Ya the 4230 does a great job in 3rd

Buy a no-till planter instead.

My corn yield went way up when I started turning the ground! I plow under my older stands of hay. 50 bushel to acre increase in yield.
