Had a heifer at the vet years ago for bangs vaccination and asked the vet about the warts on her face and he gave me three options. 1. Do nothing and they will fall off in three months. 2. Squeeze with pliers and they will fall off in 90 days. 3. Give her a medication and they will fall...

I have the Mahindra 5010, cab, MFWD, FEL - it had 102 hours on it and I got it for $22,000. A year later the tractor has about 350 hours. I love the little tractor and for the price, green nor orange could touch it. It's main use is pulling the hay rake, loading/ unloading rolls of hay and...

Just an update. I was able to purchase a new 16.9 without breaking the bank. I found the best price at tuckertire.com. Anyone who needs replacement tires might want to check their prices. The most competitive I could find. http://www.tuckertire.com/ Greenhaw

Thanks for the replies. I got a response from an ag tire supplier and he gave the ok to make the switch. Lucky7, he also talked about the four wheel drive issue and had the same recommendation as you. Fortunately this tractor is a two wheel drive; so it seems that the new size is indeed in...

I have an old Zetor 10111; the original rear tires were 16.9-38. The 18.4-38 tire is more readily available in the used market. Is a switch to the 18.4 size acceptable or am I gonna have to bite the bullet and purchase a new 16.9? Thanks for the input. Greenhaw

Coswrus, I also spoke with Vermeer and he steered me toward a relay that was located close to the gear box. Is that the one you replaced? I've been out of town for a few days and haven't had the opportunity to look at this thing yet, but will work on it tomorrow. I hope this will fix mine...

I have a Rebel 5410 baler- The monitor tells me "twine not detected" and automatically reverts back to the net wrap. There are absolutely no sensors (that I find) that will detect if twine is available. Could this be electrical fault between monitor and hydraulic cylinder that activates the...

I've got enough to get through November and then I'm gonna be out. Hate the thought of paying these outrageous prices for hay but I may not have any other option. Grenhaw

So what is the question?

All the fertilizers state how much to apply per acre but I have never seen anything pertaining to how much carrier should be used.

I am rebuilding a spray rig and need some opinions. For most herbicides I am using 10 GPA and can bump it up to 20 GPA if needed. For liquid/ water soluble fertilize the 10 GPA doesn't seem to be enough carrier for good coverage. Is 20 GPA sufficient carrier for fertilize applications? Or...

The Jiffy Hitch looks pretty. The bad part is I would more invested in the hitch then in some of my implements.

The wife drives a 2006 GT Mustang. Just bought the boy a 69 Chevelle and having a hard time keeping her out of that. :D

MF135, With the temps warming up in texas the clover and rye will be burning out within a month. My clover is already going away. If you want to treat, you can get the clover with any 2-4D mix and that will take care of it a little quicker. As for the Dallis grass, MSMA works pretty well but...

RCP, I too am about to pull the trigger on a new cutter and caddy and having a very difficult time getting any feedback from this site and others pertaining to the caddy in question. All caddies seem to have the same style (staggered wheels) with the exception of the SPM which has the wheels...

John, Surfactant is quite a bit more than soap. I do understand that a lot of people use a couple of drops of soap instead of a surfactant but it is not the same. A surfactant is a wetter/sticker/spreader depending on its formulation. When used properly it will make all of your herbicides...

If I had a million dollars, I would just continue with my cow/ calf operation until it was all gone. It's a good tax write off. If I was really in it for the $$$ I would find something more profitable. You just gotta love doing it... if you happen to profit a little then that makes it all the...

If space and finances allow, have a few smaller pens within the corral with plenty of gates to help with sorting. You can work a few back and forth between the pens to get everybody where they need to be. Much easier when working them by yourself. Greenhaw

Bad, In answer to your original question, it would be a better idea to put the rails inside the post. There will be more pressure working your herd in the corral as opposed to cows outside the corral trying to get in. (I hope that makes sense.) Put your rails on the corral side of the posts...

This year I used the Pasture Dream to drill in the clover, vetch & 2 acres of alfalfa-(just for fun). I just broadcasted the rye and drug a harrow over all of it when finished. Finished seeding just as the rain began here in Texas about two weeks age. It appears that every single alfalfa &...
