I am not sure what they are running now for cattle. When I worked there 9 years ago they had about 900 pair. Plus his son raises pure bred bulls and heifers. This is his website. bararrowcattlecompany.com/They have around 2000 acres of wheat, 1000 to 1500 or mile. Few hundred of corn and a lot of alfalfa and cane. |

Dang, Where's all the other machinery if they're farming that acreage? Lol That sounds like a slick operation. Trey |

The grinder and the other feeding equipment is up at the other haypile. The airseeder was over at the shop last time I saw it. The tillage equipment doesn't see much action anymore they are all no till. I will go through my photobucket one of these times and find more pics of their stuff. |

The 3 7520s were the main horses until the fall of 1997 when they got the 8770. After running the 8770 it sure made it hard to get back in those loud, hot, and dirty 7520s. I have spent a lot of hours in that 7520 that is sitting by the pile of rock in the one pic. Pulling a set of 6x5 Flex Kings. They also had a 4650 at that time that got to do a fair amount of field work. There was almost always one 7520 out of the 3 sitting at the Deere dealer getting worked on. ;D The part of the line up that I get a kick out of is in the last 30 years they have only traded off 2 tractors. They just keep adding. ;D
