Well first off here is two that arent in the bottoms. This is a neighbor that just bought a 24r 1250 (no markers) and also runs a 16r New Holland. The tractor is a 75E I want to say, it may be a size bigger cant recal off the top of my head. They also run a TG305 wich is on the ammonia bar.

Now on to the bottoms. This tractor (8520) belongs to Schwartz. Not sure an exact number of acres but it has to be a decent amount. They run 2 24r and a 16r.

This is Richter's. They are running (as far as I know..) 2 8345RTs on DB60s (22") one 8345RT on a Baur bar with amonia knifes on it, they have another bar in a shed. Then there were two quads I assume are 535s on 2210 60 footers. They farm over 10,000 acres. I was told I could walk around and take pics of anything I wanted to. They had a 4920 in the shop.

Three 9870s...

3688 with one of at least two ditchers

7730 with 54 inch rears and front duals!!

The second bauer amonia bar

One of the planting rigs

One of the field cultivators

Amonia rig

Any questions just ask. This is only bout half the pics I took today.

they make drainage ditches. You go in after you plant and create ditches to drain low flat areas. The ditcher right infront of that 3688 is for creating big permenant drainage ditches. They also have a pull type version of the 3pt one thats a tad bit bigger.

We have alot of wide open spaces in North Eastern Missouri.

mmccann: I’m looking for a small (5-6 inches long) “matchbox” size-ish welder truck painted red. My wife’s father died last year and his occupation was welder. He always drove red trucks. Could you make one and have it to be by Christmas? Nov 24, 2018 12:52:05 GMT -5
