    When you need a tall perch

    Fair amount of drone spraying now, but I’ve not seen a boom truck involved. I know the rules require visually seeing the drone; as much as they are self flying I’m not sure how many really do. That would sure add a cost to the operation. Paul

    There has been a fair number of crashes at air shows of late. Still not many at all but - a few above whatever normal is…. However, quite some time ago they added Some rules that they can’t fly the dangerous maneuvers over the audience any more. If there is a crash it will be over the empty...

    Fall cattle prices

    I’ve had 5-30 head for my farming career, towards the lower end currently. I need to fill out the animal unit permit plan and be inspected every 5 years, they are letting me get by without a manure plan so far but if I had more animals or less land I’d need it for sure. You need a...

    Moisture

    Been an odd year for moisture. I live in a heavy clay soil area, and do better if it is too dry than too wet. Average rainfall here is a tad too wet for me. 25 miles SW of me they are really dry. Hurting the crops. 50 miles south east of me I drove past bean fields last weekend that were...

    Fall cattle prices

    The milk mustaches a few decades ago. Seems everyone has a check off these days, they get into promotions off and on. Rrlund, I’m not sure what you are asking of me. Paul

    Fall cattle prices

    There has been a lot of regulation in the cattle business the past few decades. Manure plans. Barn regulations. Medication regulations. (Antibiotics especially as one poster mentioned of days gone by.) Welfare inspections. Some states more than others. Needed or not for better or worse...

    New idea snapping rolls

    You weld on the top of the little notch that pulls the stalk down when those pockets wear down. Need to be careful not to get too high. But as mentioned, that would make your problem worse, not better. This is a fix for when it doesn’t pull the stalks through at all. Never heard of the belt...

    Wrong replacement blades for rotary cutter

    I must be slow tonight, took me a while to figure out what dimension was left for the 3 to 3.5 inch…. Duh. I’d run them. With more mass, thry might knock on saplings a little heavier. If that is good or bad. Paul

    New Tractor Loader question.

    Same here, I moved up to the 60hp New Holland with quick tach, from the 27 hp NH pin on bucket, from the Farmall H with no power anything. Still not big time anything. :) Paul

    New Tractor Loader question.

    The universal skid steer hook up is a lot nicer to shop for attachments. Up to what, about 75 hp? Bigger tractors and you need a heavier way to attach stuff. The skid steer setup has its limits. I got a New Holland tractor, the standard attachment pads are fairly skinny I guess. A cheaper...

    part onfront of 4000 row crop

    When trying to identify odd brackets, it really helps to know a location and what is done in the area the tractor came from. Saw a tractor at a sale once had odd markings and paint on the attachment holes and frame. On down the auction line sat a manure loader, it was kind of like an elevator...

    What did I miss?

    I find I post a few less messages since I’m tired of my email filling up. Wouldn’t need the email alerts from here. Paul

    a couple pictures from the Indiana State fair.

    Neat stuff. When I was a little kid I remember seeing machinery hill at the MN state fair. Folks didn’t travel much but we made it there. Not long after the state fair stopped being about farm stuff, and is more of an urban venue, with a few references to farming. Animals and crops are there...

    triangle or trilobe pto shaft

    When I was a kid used to be a lot of stock of square and triangle pto tubes at the farm supply stores. We must no longer use such raw materials, as I just don’t see it available retail any more. The hunting and fishing areas of the store are much bigger now. Not bashing the stores, they offer...

    Can anyone help identify this hay rake?

    Minnesota made one something like that. I’m trying to remember…. I’m trying to sort through the pictures on duck duck go and find a match, it is just like the one we had but I can’t remember the brand. The front steel and rear rubber, and the way those rods stick up in back, help identify it in...

    Can anyone help identify this hay rake?

    Looks like the one we had when I was a tyke, got replaced by a NH 55 before I knew what brands were, but I remember the rake. It worked pretty good for what it was, but we raked road ditches and that style rake likes to sag down, or crab walk, on a hillside and didn’t rake the best for dad. Paul

    More Bush Hog shear pin issues.

    This is a confusing issue/ thread. Shear bolt needs to be the right size for the hole. Usually needs to be tightened tight, not loose. Holes need to be squared up round, not egg shaped. Brush hog should rarely even shear anything, it has pivoting blades. If you somehow catch the spinner in...

    Stripping 3000 for transport

    Many years ago my brother in law had the tractor dealer pick up his tractor and deliver it again for some repairs. The bill for the pick up and delivery portion of the repairs was $400. The trip one way was about 5 miles. The tractor was a 16 hp Kubota, 6100 or 7100 model I forget something...

    Gleaner M2

    That’s low hours if accurate. Unload auger can get weak coming out of the bin wear thin, as well as the ball bearings in the swivel. But doesn’t sound like you are at those hours shouldn’t be an issue. I’m getting one with more hours but all 3 heads for same price about. Paul

    What was your longest tractor ride?

    I’ve never driven a 91 combine, but I drove the JD 800 swather home 15 miles. Yes I understand! Paul
