    Slatted mouldboards are useful on soils which don't 'scour' very well e.g. sticky clay or black peaty soils.

  • @Brooke_RS197
    @Brooke_RS197 Před 8 lety +2

    you get different kinds of mouldboards! its all to do with soil type/structure that determines whether you want a solid mouldboard or a slatted one like you have there! :)

    That's a standard way ploughs are these days that wheel is not necessary. When I was contracting I had an eight furrow plough on the back of a T7.310 with a 1.75 ton weight on the front as long as you are careful you are alright. The main use of the wheel is too keep the plough from burring deep into the ground.

    Its a fully mounted plough but the wheel is for depth in field and on the road it you set the plough with bodies up the wheel takes the load off tge tractor backend, making it safer on road and if toplink legs go you wont plough up the tarmac

    The slatted mouldboard are not for making the plough light, sure they do but that's not the reason they at used its to stop certain soil types, like clays and chalky loams for sticking to the mouldboard, which in turn can cause uneven soil turning, and also after a time can cause a blockage and will stop turns the soil all together.

      Tom Hull aii, you could actually get them for a Ferguson 2 furrow Plough out in America back in the day. I haven't had a plough with them, but just guessing, would they be cheaper to replace than a solid mole board too? Well you could probably get more acres out of the top slats by only changing the faster wearing bottom first?

    Fifty years ago Massey Ferguson's grey fergy was the popular tractor of the day with a twin or triple furrow plough. 4:50.
    Maybe 155 years ago one horse power was the order of the day.

    I notice there are no birds following the plough like there used to be when I was a child (1970's). Is that because the soil is sterile? I note you said you used Round-Up, so I am guessing this has killed all the soil flora and fauna?

    • @Dougarrowhead
      @Dougarrowhead Před 4 lety

      I plow ever year never have birds. Do you know what flora and fauna are?

    • @stfuyfc69420
      @stfuyfc69420 Před 4 lety

      glyphosate (roundup) is used to kill off the grass before ploughing, glyphosate is good at binding to soil particles so it doesnt leach, glyphosate is also very safe to use, it has a very very low toxicity level so no, the round up does not kill fauna, only flora, there is simply no birds out on that day

  • @alexveldhuis6004
    @alexveldhuis6004 Před 7 lety +1

    Round up should be given 6 weeks to work, according to its label. But a plough should have no trouble burrying that quantity of trash, especially with skimmers fitted.

      Shut up. It's a five furrow reversible plough( spelt correctly) and it's a depth wheel although in this case it is also used as a transport wheel. We can see you know very little.
