In this video I am out in the field with On Track Farming near Gibson City Illinois as they are doing some fall plowing. In the video you will see the farms Challenger 1050 tractor pulling a Salford 14 bottom moldboard plow as they plow under harvested corn ground to prepare it for soybeans for next spring planting. They are plowing around 6 inches deep as this works out good for the Noon GMO soybeans they grow.

Nice to see somebody plowing and not trying to break the land speed record

Now if you’re gonna be fall plowing ya gotta do it right. Open station tractor with a heat houser and straight pipe just screaming away in the frosty air. Lol. Nice setup. I’ve seen a lot of videos of guys out west plowing in a circle like that rather than in lands. Always wondered how they finished up the unplowed corners and the center when it gets to tight to turn.

What a great Christmas gift Mike, Thank You. It takes me back about 50 years to when we all ploughed. Of course an 8 bottom plough was huge back then, but still great memories. I actually "met" my wife of 32 years when I was in the 4440 with a JD expandable 6 bottom. Thanks again and Merry Christmas.

That's a beast of a tractor for sure. Those 1050's get it done. Can hardly hear it working. Awesome video Mike!!

Love challenger tractors

Great Video Mike. This is my favourite job to do, the smell of fresh turn soil can't be beat. I've spent many very happy and long days, mainly on heavy clay doing this and when trying to beat the weather I've done more than a few over nighters too when we were contract ploughing.

MAN in Europe is like saying CAT in the USA. Very strong and durable engine. PLR

I really enjoyed this video Mike. When my dad was farming he would always plow some ground when the weather allowed him to. He always carried a 10 inch Crescent wrench. He said if any of that wrench was above the ground it wasn't deep enough. Lol.

Thanks for another awesome video. That brings back a lot of memories living back in North Carolina where we always moldboard plow which we called breaking land for our tobacco crop, tobacco land was always moldboard plow out and that was my favorite job each year on the phone love doing it. Thanks for an awesome year and cannot wait to see you watch awesome videos 2022 breaks. Merry Christmas to you and your family and wishing you the happiest of New Year’s

I plowed with a Case 1370 with a 7 bottom plow and a IH 4166 with a 7 bottom plow. I am really impressed with this Challenger and 14 bottom plow combination.
