      @@WesFarms compaction will cause the roots to branch out shallow and beans and corn won't have a good stand and they miss out on the full benefits of the food that goes deep in the ground. We do no till and we found this out the hard way.

      The brown dog is dad’s dog Roxy, he has had her for about 3 years I think. My tattoo says “love you ten” it’s a family phrase we tell eachother and our boys. The land we currently farm goes back at least 3 to 4 generations, but farming is in my heritage much further back than that. Thank you for watching!

    If I had a choice between one of these old rigs and a brand new machine, I'd take the old one every time. I can afford a new truck, but instead I drive an '84 C20, it's got a 350 in it, parts are everywhere and cheap. I always get a thumbs up driving into town because it's the exception to the norm. There's something to these old analog time pieces, good luck and thanks for rescuing this rig.

    I have a question for you? why does farmers buy two planners??? I know a lot farners use Air Drills and not use old Drills???

    • @WesFarms
      @WesFarms Před měsícem

      Some bigger farms need multiple planters. There has been a lot of research the past few years that shows planting soybeans earlier than corn results in much higher yields so many farmers have one rig for corn and one rig for beans. We like the air seeder for its simplicity and speed. Planters are more precise but seeders and drills get the job done. It’s all personal preference.
