My father was plowing with our Super M, my brother with a JD 60 and me with a Farmall 350 with a fast hitch. The 350 would do a wheelie when I picked up the plow. Those were the days. My grandfather told my father not to park the red tractors in the barn with his good green ones. I can relate to the different colors. Both companies made fine tractors, especially these older ones.
dave12546 He's young and trying to impress with the speed of his Farmall with 3 bottoms. Put a fourth on there and see how fast you go. It should have been able to contend head to head with the 630......horsepower with a super crater piston set should have been around 60, more than the R or the 630. What happened?😔 2 wonderful simple cylinders making power, and the Diesels were the most economical for 25 years, and it took a JAPANESE tractor 1/3 the size to beat an 830 in the amount of fuel burned per hour at full load. Now count the work done. Absolutely phenomenal.
One thing about those John Deers, the transmission always sing to you, and they keep your feet warm
Beautiful

I love listening to these beutiful john deere two cylinder tractors. Pure music to my ears.
That's some of the most beautiful rich dirt I've ever seen 👍
flashback to my childhood. long days in the fields
Black gold! Beautiful soil! Greetings from Poland :)
Looking forward to plowing up some CRP with my D17 series III and the mounted plow that came with it
Really enjoy watching these videos trailer plows are hard to find anymore
My dad’s uncle Boydean has an unrestored John Deere 630 wide front, and I’ll restored 530 Rowcrop tractor, uncle John bought used back in the 1960s
Those tractors came in to the family when my dad‘s uncle John bought them
Nice Old Iron video. Thanks for sharing.
Would have loved to have that loamy soil to work with. Our farm fields were hard as a rock clay.
Can't forget the old days in farming for my grand parents in india with old tractors
Very nice. Only thing wrong with that video is, it's too short.
REAL AMERICAN AGRICULTURE
Good old black prairie dirt works good. I don't agree that the ground was too wet. It looked like it was breaking up real well to me.
Exactly right, Eric. It was perfect plowing!
Eric Thatcher yeah! Too wet to plow is when you spin out and get your plow stuck!
Thanks for sharing!!!!
Nothing pulls like an 830. It's almost impossible to stall one.
Those are 60 series fenders on the M.
very nice tractors
THE STATE OF MICHIGAN AND UPPER😅 NEW YORK IS ABOUT LIKE IT!!.
Wow, great video! Is that a John Deere F620 plow you're pulling?
How deep was that Super M plowing?
Odd seeing the 630 with the wide front ours is the tricycle style with 2wheels in in the front
John Deere!!! 👍👍👍👍
I BELIEVE THAT R WOULD BREAK CLAY WITH A FIVE BOTTOM!!.
YES IT IS!.
I never understood how they claimed a 4 bottom plow is all an R could do.
then guy on the JD is a good operator, always looking back, the kid on the M seldom looks back

I did watch and a good operator looks back more that ahead.
I guess I just never plowed in such good soil, I can remember the plow tripping every 15 feet in some of our soils. we plowed more stones than soil.
brains of the operators.....you can see who smarter by the color of tractor there operating :)
Good day I thought those 830 were good on fuel, what Japanese tractor beat it. I read on Nebraska test Ford 8630 ? was tops. Thanks
That ground is way too wet to be plowed.
It wasn't wet at all, Doodles. It was perfect plowing for us.
Obviously it isn't.
Look at the tires and moldboards.
what size tires are on the front of the supper m?
they are 7/ 60/ 15
I have a John Deere R
