Grain traders massaging the figures so they can dump the cheap grain they bought at a higher price before buying it back when the usda report paints a bleak outlook. Up here today also so some will be grabbing it while others still hold out for their magic number that won’t appear.
If the belt is getting hot to the extent that it’s causing problems I’d be looking for a reason why the heat builds up. Slipping miss alignment worn pulleys or even a dragging jockey pulley
Give it a good make over and drill your own. Depending on a contractor to show up would to do a smaller acreage isn’t good. Especially in a catchy weather year.
I had Barton in my workshop. 16 ft walks and they were pi55poor lights. Good coverage with the two rows at 8 ft apart but never seemed bright enough. Have replaced with ufo leds and couldn’t be happier.
Not environmentally right but get some black oil worked into the wood. Will last for many more years. I put a scrap engine on the wooden floor of a trailer and oil leaked out and soaked into the floor. That was the only part not rotten after five years.
Mounted on a pivot steer tractor I found rather than mounting on the cab roof it was far better mounted on the front as far forward as possible. And the slopes should be compensated by the gyro in the t2 if ezsteer
Ezsteer on a waas signal will give you pretty good results. If it’s forage maize and the rows don’t match up perfect does it really matter. Most choppers are on a kemper type gathering design and not row dependant. Bought my first light bar in 2003 and after spraying with it for a few days all...
I’ve sown oats for a neighbour to use as whole crop. Variety called haymaker. Most likely won’t find it in the uk unbelievable bulk from a short season crop. 5 ft tall and leaves an inch wide. spring oats will give a good bulk but need choppin rather than round bales to reduce wastage from...
my main equipment I keep enough parts and bearing to fix any breakdown. Filters for every engine and more just in case parts than most dealerships. I can’t afford breakdown time losses. Most dealers are stocking less and less and rely on us to pay overnight shipping to get going again. Common if...
I know and older retired nurse from Australia. She worked along side a flying doctor in the outback for most of here working life. She said she saw every imaginable health issue in the aboriginal people but only once saw anyone with cancer. She put it down to processed meats as they typically...
Used to be common in Manitoba that canola was mixed with map to get it metered out better. Now most drills will accurately go down to 3 lbs an acre. Easiest way is know how much of each product in the mix and calibrate as normal. Nothing that old fashion math can’t work out. I wouldn’t fill the...
Youngsters now think that unless every piece of equipment is controlled by a box in the cab they aren’t able to make any money or grow a crop.
there’s a time and place for both systems
When grain prices are low the cost of production with masses of technology that needs paying for doesn’t help.
Sorta work but not. Been building a new cabin after the old one flooded. Ice is getting towards the end of the safe crossing period so trying to make the most of it. Timber frame was todays project.
