Rotary cutting pics

Gordo 56,

Thanks for posting the pix of your land, it looks great. The farm we bought has 7 large ponds, 4 dams (1 broke), creek and river frontage so I am always on sloping ground. Hence the Italian hill tractor. The reversible drivers position is just great.

Cheers

Do you have any pictures of the interior of your cab; very interesting tractor.

TripleR,

This link will take you to a slid show I made of the Ferrari at the dealers, it has inside shots of the seat facing backwards and forwards.

Here's a few of my cutting from this past week

Glad I paid attention to everyone's advice to stop often and check the front screen/radiator while bush hogging. This was after just a few trips around:

I may have a slight dandelion problem :laughing:

Hey Mpking, I couldn't help notice what a nice place you have, great looking barn,good fencing,pine trees and moutains in the background. That's like a picture post card. Thanks for the pictures.

Electrarc, nice place, don't look like you will ever have water shortage problem. with all those ponds and a creek and a river too. You can always use some of the ponds for irrigation on the pasture if you get a dry spell.

I can see why your tractor is called a hill tractor, it does have low center of gravity and looks like it wouldn't tip over easy. I love it that the seat turns around, I wish mine could do that.

What plans do you have with your land?

Thanks for the video; just hard to imagine how all of that gets turned around.

I hate to even think what one of those costs.

Gordo 56,

It had Redclaw in the ponds but it had been treated very poorly. Then 3 months after we got it that nice river flooded. The worst in 60 years. We had about 50 feet of water on the farm.

The erosion is so bad it has cut the farm in two. The only access to our river now is via the farm next door.

So we are changing to small scale hydroponics and a few ponds of native fish.

A picture says it all.

cheers

electarc, that erosion is unbelievable, I thought ours was bad, but now not so much.

TripleR,

Cutting grass picture. I had to get access from the neighbors to start to clean up our land next to the river.

Yep that river was above the height of the camera.

Still smiling

It has a complete set of duplicate pedals on the floor. It takes about 30 seconds to change it around.

58 hp with aircon cab, full set of weights front and rear, 4 remotes, twin diff locks etc less than $50,000 on farm.

Had to lookup Redclaw, they are crabs. The only look big enoungh for pets and not for food, is that correct?

That erosion must be where your river bends, The out side bend is where the water moves the fastes and cuts into the bank more. With record floods in your part of the world, we are seeing extreme weather all over. My farm in south central Iowa 30 miles from the Missouri border, we had record rain fall from May 15th to around July 6th. My bottom ground flooded 6 times during that period. Have you been following the thread here about the drought in Texas? No one can deny that global warming is happening and having a hugh effect on the worlds weather.
