I have two tractors that do 60 road miles a day each at harvests for weeks on end, hauling round bales and silage trailers here on the farm. Not a problem. Just make sure you're in 2WD, front camber is spot-on if it's 4WD (ag tires are expensive...), and have AC/Heat/radio in the cab. Make plans...

I would say as a few others have said. Herbicide, wait until it's dead, rototiller a few slow passes so you don't have clumps. Depends on soil type you have, time frame you want it done and how much money you want to spend tbh. Small rototiller will work fine on 33hp (more like 28hp on PTO) but...

What I would do first is identify what's on those 150 acres. Is it a full grown old forest or just already clear cut regrowth from a few years ago? Any swamp? Any other forested acreage near that land to accomodate the displaced wildlife from the habitat you're destroying? Because you realize...

I mow 3 of our fields from March to October, every week in Spring and every couple of weeks after july. About 35 acres of spent pasture land that needs to be rehab'ed for a few years (previous owner's mess, not mine...). I just use the 3m (10ft) flail mower on mulch setting, 3.5-4 mph. 120hp...

Actually, it's quite common in semi-rural areas in Canada. When farmers have a few spare utility tractors sitting in a shed/barn that they won't use all winter, they rent them out to snow removal contractors which take care of all the maintenance/repairs/liabilities for winter. I know first hand...

not sure why you don't rent a portable crusher? I had a big barn that I demo'ed and replaced 4-5 years ago in the UK. 60'x120' concrete slab and concrete blocks/stone walls (was cheaper and safer to demo than try to fix it up, the thing was almost 100 years old). Hired a Rhino 5000Plus portable...

Bought a used Kubota U48-4, had 500 hours on when purchased. I've put about 700hrs on in last 2 years just on our farm and a few jobs at the neighbour's farm like trenching and drainage. The jib was an old trenching bucket that I got with it that was basically rubbish with no teeth or cutting...

I had the same dilemma a couple of years ago, had a concrete job to do on the farm. Rented for a few days, made a list of jobs that could use an excavator and it kept on growing and growing, did the math. Ended up buying a 5 ton excavator. It has more than paid itself just in rental fees and I...

Hi y'all. Been scratching my head on my MF6140 for 3 days trying to get it back in the field. Dealership is closed for service calls due to Covid19. fwd/rev shuttle doesn't work, Dynashift doesn't work, FWD don't engage and Diff lock either. I strongly suspect electrical problem. Checked all...
