Spreading Fertilizer

We spread fertilizer on some hay ground and some corn ground that wasn't spread last fall. We use an Ag Leader 500 light bar.

Hauling that Missouri Black Gold!

Well the pit was full and we have 28 acres readily available to spread on so we had to drive the challenger several miles to the hog barn and un hook the super coulter then hitch to the tank which we had to take off the clevis hitch on the challenger ::). Then we hooked the Houle pump to the 5288. We used to put the 4440 on it but we try to keep hours off the good tractors hahaha

Corn Seedbed Prep

We started corn seedbed prep 2 weeks ago. We finished Friday. Some was done with the TIgerMate field cultivator and the rest was done with the Summers Super Coulter. Both did a GREAT job but the Super Coulter didn't eat up the vegetation as good as we hoped.
