@rhofford Power shift would be nice on high load high speed

@McNeilBJ @jakehodel @JohnDeere @JustinRoseDeere You can control the Acura Trak with the TH system

@BantrySeedFarms I’ve never seen a sprayer blow over🤷🏿‍♀️

[Caleb Akin @CalebAkin2]

@Qrds1234 If it breaks your screwed, same as a belt feeder. If your skid steer quits go get another. The floor space savings doesn’t compensate for the depth of redundant loaders

@jasonmauck1 @zebulousprime What?

[Caleb Akin @CalebAkin2]

@Ndfarmgirl1 @McNeilBJ We pulled a cultipacker behind the plow (300 at 15ft 1x) and planted directly .
Comparing these two strategies of switching heavy cover to cash crop which is less invasive? Is there a better way? Sure smoking is bad but is a light better than a red?

[Caleb Akin @CalebAkin2]

@Ndfarmgirl1 @McNeilBJ In case where there is a high biomass cover crop that needs to switch to a cash crop what is the best way? We tried a high speed disk, it took 3 passes (500hp on a 20ft machine) the soil was completely pulverized by the time plant material was fit to plant. We then tried a plow

@MrBissell_917 And Canadian thistle

[Caleb Akin @CalebAkin2]

@BaumanFb Increase in intensity

[Caleb Akin @CalebAkin2]

@ntibanekat @jasonmauck1 @KellyGarrett75 @DamianPMason That increases land cost on the planted acres, not a great option for me

@ksufearless Ilhe mfg out of slater ia?

[Caleb Akin @CalebAkin2]

@jasonmauck1 @jvin248 How about twin row on a ridge, run a stalk puller with set backs to clear each other ? Save the strip till challenge, controlled traffic would be excellent. Banding fertilizer would be a minor challenge

@gavin_spoor We built a couple extractors like this, not as nice as Blake Merritt’s but fast and cheaper
