It keeps life exciting. Without wishing to derail the OP's thread, here's a few cows grazing kale a couple of winters back. You can see the benefits of individual bales put out in the summer in a system like this.. here I mowed tracks through the crop to put the fence out. Saves shorting out the electric fence and cows can see it.I hear ya. I'm my own worst critic too.![]()
That's half the reason I follow TBN. And most of of the other forums on my list. It's like travelling the world and amazing how people do things and what with.. all these little snippets of info come in handy one day.Awesome picture. I totally understand that. Thanks for posting.
Sorry to the OP. But hey, we don't get pics from NZ very often!!!!![]()

I'm sure my old SAME will handle it, it has 4 pto speeds and 40 gear ratios. Very versatile and maneuverable tractor with split brakes front and rear.
Sounds to me like a big fendt. Yes you have hit the nail square on there I think. I do have an old JD 3140 here as a backup tractor but I can turn my tractor around inside its inside wheel mark. 4 wheel braking is awesome, I can turn off the front brakes but never bother to. Will lock a front wheel and slide the nose end around like a skidsteer! The only reason those SAME's became extinct was the fact that, being aircooled, they didn't warm up fast enough for Californian emission laws. Wonder how many there are in California... electric cab heater is great in wintertime. Lowest gear means 200 yards per hour and top means 25mph.In the Utility sized tractors Americans are way behind. I've not been to NZ but European countries and some Asian countries expect much more from their tractors than we do. One tractor does it all. First time I ever saw a tractor running 35 mph down the hiway was in Germany. Didn't catch what brand it was. Pulling a trailer full of potatoes.![]()
No complaints here, wow beautiful landscape and we can learn from everyone. Thanks olPete for sharing your knowledge.
