I spend to much time being mad at the world, people, what's going on in the big cities and all that junk. Then I watch this video and I have a smile on my face, Thanks Trinity crew

I don't know what you think Allen but I think when you get to open a new piece of ground like that or clearing old fence rows or something like that that gives you a new respect for what our four bears did ahead of us to clear this ground and get it where we can farm it

I grew up on a farm and left for the big city at 15 had a great life and 31 years on the railway. I now being 80 and still very active would I love to work on your farm you bet just for something to do and could operate anything you have. But knowing that will never happen!! I so enjoy watching your way of farming, fantastic and so enjoy your videos. Thank you.

Tks for the little 4 wheeler's tour of your property. You have a Beautiful slice of Heaven there.

Glad to see I’m not the only one with a loose muffler. Lololo

its awesome to see some down to earth guys running this older gear and getting the job done still. :) proof you don't need million dollar tractors to make an operation work.

I can't wait to get to do exactly what you did after clearing the brush! Music to my ears hearing those red beast purr! Thank you for the kind words sir, I am doing my best slow go but we gonna get there one day! That 1066 doesn't even seem to know that plow is back there!! Another awesome video, loved every minute! Look fwd to more! Thank you again!!

Great see the kids out and about. Ģreat video again. God bless Trinity Dairy 🙏

Nice to see you getting some use out of your land. Grain prices are high, so are land prices gotta use everything you have! Hopefully the corn will turn out. Take care!

When I was a kid on the farm 60 years ago, my father insisted that the pastures be clipped at least twice in the growing season. (Side sickle mower on an IH Super A) Fast forward many years and I returned to my roots. I bought a farm that had been neglected for at least 15 years. As I reclaimed fields and pastures, I finally understood why my father insisted on clipping the pastures.

I like Allen's ride around your farm. Your dairy farm is absolutely beautiful..

Good old 1066 getting it done. The 1256 is no slouch on the disk either. Gotta love that Red Power.

Just want to say thank you for what you do your an inspiration to everyone that wants to farm my family farm was lost 5 years ago and your videos help me get the motivation to belive I'll get back to farming again I work 60 plus hrs a week to see my dream come true and know I'll get there and when I feel down I just watch some of your videos and it inspires me and cheers me up so thank you and your whole family and God bless yall

New subscriber here. I can’t tell ya how glad I am to see a farmer plowing, discing and using cow manure for fertilizer instead of chemicals. When I seen the manure spreader, I hit subscribe. I’m not a tree hugger but I see now that these chemicals in our food are killing us quick. Good job 👍

Nice transformation to that field.

how nice the whole family iş here,greetings from İzmir.

We pull 5 16's all the time with a 1086 with no sweat, don't know why you couldn't, the plow makes the difference too...JD plows pull harder because of the shear angle...plus a 1066 dualed up on land will pull much better than riding in the furrow....looking good!

Old school cool Not like those other farm videos that brag about new equipment and how many acres and animals

He keeps a sharp eye on that boy around the tractor. Thats a good man with his priorities in order.

Now if we get some rain, the corn should grow good.

Nice work getting that ground cleared out, every acre counts when there's cows to feed. Ol 1066 is pulling nice 👍

Doing a similar project here, only I got golden rod, birdocks and butter cups. Plus one mother turkey!!

It does a nice job ploughing

Tractors put straight into hard work from new seem to have more go than ones eased into it. Great video Team.

Those 3 acres of reclaimed crop land is like money in the bank. Nice job Alan - you take waste land and turn it into crop land. You never know but perhaps sometime in the future, the crops you get from those 3 acres could be the difference in having enough feed to get you through an extremely tough or long winter. Keep working that magic! Nice to see everyone out in the field! God Bless!!

She does well to pull 6 furrows! Brilliant video 💪🏻 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

take it easy bro,greetings from İzmir.

It's the massive beast it can pull anything! Had a couple of wet spots that little John Deere had to work in a couple spots. Great video once again!

BTW it’s awesome to see the kids out there instead of playing video games!!!!

That's the best video over seen in awhile. My two favorite things, reclaiming farmland and spreading manure. I've a dairy farm in Maine. Thanks for sharing and God bless you too.

Looks good Allan,1066 looks like it is pulling plow just fine

Thanks for doing what you do. My wife and I just bought 10 Acres of derelict farmland to start a small farm. Its been a long time since Ive farmed. We wanted to get back to our roots now that we are empty nesters and the cities are out of control. These videos are a great help to see how others are handling challanges or optimizing their land. My field is similar to this one.

Congratulations on reclaiming the field it looks good! Can’t Wait to see the corn crop!

Best International Harvester ever made, 1066! My great grandad bough one new in 1972. The hour meter stoped working 20 years ago with 15,000 hours on it. Still a main work horse farm.

Hey you got a couple years for the soil to replenish nutrients. That corns gonna love that

Nice job

I know from experience how alderbrush and willow can take over so fast. We had to go in with a chainsaw to cut a bunch of it. It was tedious work. We pastured it for a year then plowed it. Picked lots of rocks and sticks but with work and persistence the field came around. The first year of corn made it all seem worth it. Sounded like that little John Deere had to grunt a little in that stuff. That tractor is pulling that plow just fine.

it has always amazed me how quick you can lose a piece of property back to nature even a lawn

5 -16's was all our 1066 wanted in Southern Iowa.But our 1566 just played with one.

Doing a good job opening up that old field. Keep safe and God bless. You have lots of farm hands eager to help planting and harvesting when they are old enough.

Subscribed. Im learning alot about farming. Shout out frim South Africa. Thank you for such content bro.

Making silk purse out of a sows hear. Good work.

In a few years that land would have returned to forest. Amazing what Mother Nature will do.

Great video Allan the tractor seems to have plenty of power pulling the plow. That’s a nice looking 4-wheeler I know from experience a good 4-wheeler or side by side is as handy as a pocket on a shirt for use on a farm. Take care guys and stay safe 👍

1066 doing the deal, looks pretty good........

I so glad for yall and God bless yall 🙏

Comparing field at 3:18 with field at 20:20 one would not think it was same field. Great job reclaiming ! I was surprised you were able to do such a good job plowing as that made the disking easier.

Yep along with the UK, France, Germany and many other countries where cattle are inside during the winter months on slats. But now most farmers and contractors are using dribble bars on the slurry tankers which puts the slurry on the ground as opposed to spraying it in the air. Cattle slurry dosen't smell to bad, It's the Pig slurry that really stinks. Dung spreaders and a bit of a dying bread.

The 1066. She ain't pretty, but she sure can sing. Thanks for the video.

Zelda’s calf is adorable..aren’t they all?🤣. Beautiful land you’ve got there and I can only imagine how much work it takes to maintain. I really enjoyed seeing Joshua (?) bringing in the cows...a real trouper. ❤️👍

love seeing mixed herds of cattle

looks great keep em commin

Looking good.

Nice to see. I have some reclaiming to do myself. Where I live (northern NY) everyone builds houses in the fields, so I have to start with a chainsaw to reclaim very old fields. It is nice though to see those old stone walls deep in the woods with 50+ year old trees all around

The cow path is a thing trusted by all just don’t put your best foot forward

great video, everything in the video is amazing

Good video mate blessings from Shropshire England.

👋👍thanks friends 😊

That 1066 is putting in some work! Definitely got that thing turned up! Very nice.

Not to tell you anything ypu already know but if you adjust that top link …… it’ll chop up those trees instead of bending them over. Doesn’t take much to adjust the pitch down towards the ground in the front but it makes a huge difference. Great video

I helped a friend who had a low pasture plowed with a four foot plow pulled by a caterpillar. He leased a Ford tractor with duels and a new disk, I had to go in first gear and hang on very good because of the roller coaster ride over the holes left as the soil was turned over leaving four foot drop offs, as the front wheels came to the edge the soil crumbled into the hole so I never went four feet down but second gear was out of the question. That field produced some fantastic silage corn that is for sure.

Love from New Zealand. Keep at it. Thanks for posting.. Xxoo.

God work, 👌

Love the Honda trike Not seen one for a few years .

We pull a 6-18 with our 1066 but she's had a turn or 2 on the juice screw

We had an 806 Diesel and we pulled a semi mounted 6-16s easily in Missouri. Never saw a pull type 6 plow but you seem to be handling it quite well.

Very satisfying wish it was longer

Like you said, its a big undertaking getting those fields back but its well worth it. Need to get yourself an old dozer or excavator and push those trees back plus their good at pulling out beaver dams and such.

Nice. I reclaimed about 3/4 acre last fall and this spring. I didn't have a brush cutter so I was pulling them out with a chain and my 8n Ford. I had stacked it all up an burned it before I ran my single bottom plow and then my disk and cultivator over it. It was a lot of work, but I think you're right it's totally worth it. My rye is coming up nicely. This fall I hope to get back out there and see If i can get another 1/2 acre or so reclaimed gradually increase my field size.

First time viewer of the channel here! That sure is some pretty country you got there, the blue skies and rolling green hills are beautiful! It was very satisfying seeing the field be reclaimed. Neat video, I’m looking forward to watching part two now!

It depends on the type of soil. You must have some good soil

Lotta kids out there...

Pulled a 720 IHC with 4-18s. It was all that tractor wanted in the black gumbo we have on the IL prairie.

He's already wanting to follow in his dad's footsteps.

If you had left it another year it would be a Jesus take the wheel field, you just let him steer until you get to a big tree or something bigger than the tractor, and you hope you see it in time to turn or stop :) I like the quad, got one just like it and they've always been my favorite

First vid I've seen of this channel. I'm diggin it. Sub'd and cheers. I wish I could have my own farm.

I'd love to hear how the corn ended up turning out. I've heard of farmers getting their best harvests after giving their land back to nature for a few years.

No way. We did the goat thing once...never again lol!

We had a case 930 and the size of our plow was 5-20” bottoms. We did have some fields that were black soil and gravel soil.

You remind me of that farming computer game "farmer's dynasty" !

1066 is a good strong tractor. Plenty of power for 6-16 plow.

Would you do a video on your wire corn cribs thank you

that tractor sounds a bit stronger than normal. Sounds powerful.

That 1066 has likely been turned up, but you weren't plowing real deep either, and from the looks of that soil type, its not really too much for that 1066. We use to have a 6/16 bottom plow that we pulled with our Case 1370 and then in later years with our Case 2390. But our soil types around here are black loam, and clay loamy soils, with some black and clay muck in parts of certain fields, and that 6/16 bottom plow would work those tractors pretty good. That field you were plowing look like it had a more silty sandy loam soil type, so that plow shouldn't be too much for a 1066, especially being a land plow, along with you not plowing real deep, like you would in the fall. Those old IH 1066 tractors were good tractors, now if it was a John Deere with roughly the same Hp rating, would probably struggle, lol. Those old IH tractors and the old Case tractors were strong pulling tractors.

Looks like after Bush hogging it'll be tough on the tractor doing the plowing tires.... my dad would not let me mow pastures because weed and brush stalks would cause the cows to have scratched and bloody noses.... he preferred to pull the cows off and double disk these pastures

Red Power!

Never was around many IHC TRACTORS BUT A 6-18 IHC 720 PLOW WE PULLED WITH A 4620 AND A 4440 John Deeres just fine the 4620 only had Single rear wheels....

Alderbrush would grow on the Moon.🍁🍁🍁🇨🇦

I used to work for CaseIH. 1066 shouldn’t have a problem at all with a 6-16 plow. Our Ford 8000 with a 401ci in non turbo engine pulls one.

👍👍👍

Also my friend has some pigs that would turn that field into primo fertilized dirt in no time... tractor is faster though lmao
