I think I would go old school. Loose or remove drive belt. Remove chain to store inside. Use a thicker or used oil. Even coat any exposed bearing seals you can get to.

Coyotes will graze around the tree every night until they are gone. Used to hear shotgun blasting during the night. I would get up already knowing what I was going to see. My old neighbor outside in his boxers dragging a coyote off getting ready for the next one. 😀

I think I have finally figured out our Frenchie. Don't get me wrong, we're attached to him. We have used several descriptive nicknames over the years. Best one he is a food processor nothing more nothing less.😀

As a kid we would plow wheat stubble under in August. Followed that up plowing red clover regrowth in September. I was usually the tail tractor. All were the two cylinder varieties creeping along in third gear. Absolutely nothing to do only take it. Average number of stings was around twelve per episode . Lots of days going to school looking like Quasimodo

Maybe 2 carts and 3 trucks. End of the week would be several thousands

I had two different guys tell me that they are putting 26 gallons an hour through their new combines. I don't know how that breaks down to gallons per acre but the bill would be big

Yep. Makes me smile when those swallows just show out of nowhere by the dozens.

Since I am allergic I would wait until dusk or at least until they settled down. That is if i wasn't down from stings. Get a one gallon gas can full of gas and put in the pickup cab with me. Once I was satisfied with the cab door over the hole I would Crack the door open and give them a good drink. I had to do that 3 or 4 times a year while I was pulling a mower conditioner. I think the disk mower screws them up. I haven't been stung mowing since i got it.

I thought you were being sarcastic. I had a neighbor that used virtual fence for YEARS and yes I am being sarcastic 😅

I do like my Hesston. I bought it used with a worn keyway at gearbox input. I ran it that way until I had a bearing go out and sent the remains through the gearbox. 1200 in parts. Still running good with only normal maintenance, blades and bolts, oil level checks are a pain but that is every 500 acres

67 mustang that someone stuck and absolutely worn out 289 in. Junkyard special. Dad left for a few days on some coop bus trip. Bad decision. Should not have left 16 year old me un supervised.😀 Mustang went to the tree in the yard. 3 cracked pistons and needed bored. 10.5 to one pistons, big cam and all of my bale handling money was gone. But it was FUN

I have used MFA also for fertilizer needs and when my son was a manager for a location we used there testing services. We also have two independent companies close by. I can't say, but a stand alone testing service seems like an honest idea

Anyone familiar with the Soilview company. I had not heard of them before today, but then I live under a rock. Our local ag service companies do there own testing, maybe swing recommendations in there favor. not accusing anyone of wrong doing but maybe an independent would be better. Just floating ideas

Sorry double post

A guy in south part of Missouri has been caught at least 3 times. Probation all 3 times. Maybe the judge is hoping a rancher can spare a rope.
