LAST DAY OF 30 ACRE LAND CLEARING PROJECT....HARROWING!

What happens here

Drone footage captures a John Deere tractor pulling a 'gigantic 16-foot wide disc harrow' across the cleared land. The disc harrow is a heavy implement designed to chop up and break down the soil, effectively tilling it and incorporating any remaining organic matter into the ground. This process helps to smooth and level the surface, creating a fine tilth suitable for planting. The speaker notes that while sometimes disking is done multiple times for optimal preparation, this area was only disked once. A piece of railroad track is also visible being dragged behind the disc harrow, likely serving as an additional leveling or clod-breaking tool. The tractor is shown lifting the disc harrow hydraulically when making turns at the end of each pass.

Goal: Prepare the cleared soil for planting by breaking up clods and leveling the surface.

  • Piece of Railroad Track — Attached behind the disc harrow for additional leveling and breaking up stubborn soil clods

here the last final step is run a gigantic disc harrow over i've got the drone footage of the disc care and we'll talk you through it as we fly over and that'll be it thanks a lot be sure to click that like button give me a thumbs up if you're new to the channel please subscribe to the channel you can watch our farm grow to a beautiful place thanks a lot guys and we'll see you soon here we are we're riding and that is a 16-foot wide disc harrow it's a really heavy disc harrow and basically it's just chopping up the soil sometimes we'll go over it two or three times in order to chop up the soil but this trip we only went over at once and that is a piece of railroad that's dragging behind that thing you can see right here where he's making the turn he has to lift it up off the ground it has a hydraulic cylinder on there and lifts it up off the ground and then this is just a pretty cool perspective the
