STUCK in the POND! Farming....One of THOSE DAYS!

What happens here

Recognizing the Ventrac is fully stuck with all eight tires spinning, the operator decides to retrieve a larger farm tractor (Massey Ferguson T574) for recovery. He drives the large tractor to the location of the stuck Ventrac and removes any front attachments, like a hay spear, that might obstruct the towing process. He then prepares a heavy-duty tow strap for attachment.

Goal: To recover the stuck Ventrac, a larger, more powerful tractor is needed. This involves driving the larger tractor to the site and preparing it with a tow strap.

Tools and materials

  • Hay Spear
  • Massey Ferguson T574 Tractor
  • Tow Strap

What they say

Hide

it's like the tractor had other plans. Not planned. Not fun. Uh I didn't want this to happen. I got a nice walk and we're really racing the rain. It started sprinkling on me just a little bit ago, but um yeah, let's ride on back and I need to mow this, too. Uh this is the other pond. I built this pond for about 2,500 bucks. This was just kind of a wet spot on the farm. We dug it out, dammed it up. Now we got good irrigation for the cows. Let's go get the tractor. Should we try with a hay spear? Uh I'm going to take it off. All right, let's see if we can break something else. Nice little walk through the ticks. It's like super happy about that. SUPER STOKED. THERE WE GO.
