If you need a size comparison the average farm in the United States is 434 acres but that's probably partly affected by micro farms that only do a few acres.

2018-06-04 23:33:45 UTC  

I was actually really surprised when I saw how low the national average was. We have fields that are 1200 acres.

2018-06-04 23:40:41 UTC  

Yeah that's crazy, growing up we had 25 acres of tobacco we worked, but that was my dads idea of a "hobby" farm haha

2018-06-04 23:57:30 UTC  

If I had one complaint it would be the absolute state of the bitches around here!

Getting ready to go pick rocks.

@Der Seeteufel - SD Is that a rock crusher or catcher?

2018-06-05 21:52:33 UTC  

Catcher

2018-06-05 21:53:13 UTC  

I wonder if they make those for cat 1s

2018-06-05 21:54:46 UTC  

I don't know. We supposedly have a smaller one but I've never seen it.

2018-06-05 22:00:02 UTC  

These two run on hydraulics but it's possible that they make some that use a PTO if your tractor doesn't have hydraulic hookups.

2018-06-05 22:02:21 UTC  

I got hydraulics but at my size its probably safer to run it on pto with all the rocks we have her

This one needs some work. This is how you move equipment when the shop is too small to turn the tractor.

New shiny bolt. Hopefully this one holds a little better than the last one.

It looks like someone dropped that boulder on your dogs head in that one pic

2018-06-07 19:41:55 UTC  

What a good dog

2018-06-07 21:40:03 UTC  

Glad to see you putting that dog to work😁 he's gotta earn those meals.

@John O - I've got a wheat field update for you.

@Deleted User I thought you might be interested in the control setup on that smaller tractor I was driving today.

2018-06-08 01:55:17 UTC  

Its called a quad-range. The front levers are your throttle and gear selectors. The back leavers control your hydraulics.

2018-06-08 01:57:17 UTC  

There are only three foot petals. The clutch on the left and the breaks on the right.

2018-06-08 02:17:14 UTC  

Nice thing about these older tractors is that you can leave your dog in them. Newer tractors with electronic controls are too easy for your dog to bump. Guys have died because they left their dogs in the cab while they go fix something.

2018-06-08 02:45:03 UTC  

For comparison the controls on a modern quadtrac are a bit more complicated.
