Work, then more work
Finally had a chance to take a pic of our new "harrow" or whatever you care to name it. Now we're working on a fertilizer spreader to mount ahead of the corn seeder. Pre-fertilizing will be a huge advantage in labor, time and weed control.
Well, I'm tired so going to sleep now. Sweet dreams.

The anti-machinery people (the global warming alarmists, etc) have no clue as to how much everyone benefits from man-made things. We just sold the John Deere tractor so we can pay our taxes. ;-) Actually, we didn't really need it much anymore and it needed some work. You wouldn't believe how many people have called about it, but it sold the first day it was in the paper. Lots of people wanting tractors! :-)
Most of "those people" figure we don't need farms, we can just get our food at the grocery store ;-)
It's not surprising your tractor sold quick. Farming is becoming the new past-time of the nouveau-riche and the sort of bohemian anti-tech wannabes who live in a "back to nature" fantasy. What a bunch of wankers. Add to that the sudden huge influx of illegal immigrants returning to farm labor from the collapsing housing boom, intense (but not unusual) weather fluctuations and advancing oil prices and you've got one skanky manure pile of weirdness coming up for the agriculture markets.
