The Perfect Starter Tractor for Him! (JD 4020)

Planting Prep, and Spence bought a JD 4020! I bought my combine from Herb, and Herb just happened to have a JD 4020 that he was trying to sell. Spencer needed a tractor this spring (will explain in next video- tomorrow), so this worked out perfect! Going to try and keep the vids rolling this Spring. Thanks for watching!

4020 is my starter tractor 2 years ago, doing hay and grain, but love my tractor! I have a lot of old equipment but it all still works! cant wait to see how that new farm goes!!!

Congrats on the second tractor any other big purchases happening this year.

Respect to Spencer for jumping in. I did the same a few years ago; surprisingly, with similar land and machinery. It is the journey, not the destination. A side note to Grant; always return borrowed equipment better than you receive it. Understand you addressed the missing shank (and I agree that you’ll find it), but don’t return my ripper with dirt and stalks still on it. Reward good neighbors, don’t take them for granted.

Nice tractor! We have 3 at the farm! Along with several 20 series tractors!

Custom hay coming to the channel soon. Good for Spencer

4020s are a handy inexpensive loader tractor so probably a good find.

[zillaable]

congrats to your brother buy his first tractor 😁👍

[jddriver]

congratulations !:) 4020 is my "starter" dream tractor in case I start my own farm in Canada or USA.:)

Keep the videos coming. It’s great to see a new farmer starting out

[johnmobbs]

Nice to see you back, great video as always 👍

From our personal farm, we used to have field cultivators that would plug up. We have always ran a disk through the disk ripped stalks this helped break up aditional residue and flowed through our older field cultivators just fine

[JOEMAMA.]

You guys should definitely get a small cab tractor! Can't wait to see JD 8rs on this farm in the future and more will definitely be on the road with you

Mulch finisher would help for sure. If you prefer a field cultivator over a mulch finisher, most of the newer ones have better ground clearance and spacing between the shovels so you can get through more residue. I don’t think you could go wrong with either but definitely agree you will want one that doesn’t plug up as much as that one.

Spencer I’m proud of what you have planned!

[braydonrichter]

I wish I could time travel to see what the farm looks like in 10 years 😂

[billymcgrath]

For your high residue issue try a chisel plough. Like a Canadian style one with only shanks and on 12 inch spacings. Something like a morris cp725 or something

Here’s Something to keep in mind for your planter if you want to go the variable rate route. I know it is expensive to do but you could do a max emerge 5e or exact emerge retro fit kit. Both of these options would utilize your current planter frame just bolt on new row units and all the extra wiring and equipment to run the electric drive row units.
