Dragging the Pasture

Will I got something done today, I figure one of you would have showed up and brought me a beer and got a ride?

That is some serious dragging there. I use a 3 section spike tooth harrow. Was bringing you a beer but ran out before I got to ya. dang the luck

That should led get the job done. We used just the drag harrow but some of the dried cowpies didn't get broken up. I like the gang hitch for the spring tooth (s). When I was a kid on Saturdays and sometimes after school dad would put me on the 630 or the A pulling a spring tooth about the size of one of them. How do you spell BORING! LOL The neighbor had a huge 4020 pulling a 21 foot field cultivator and I was stuck on a two banger pulling an old spring tooth. (Sigh)

We went by a pasture in Central MN yesterday that had so many cow pies in some area that even if harrowed I think it would kill the grass. I think it was only pasture, so many rocks and stumps that I don't think you could plow them under. In some places there were probably 6 per sq. yd. Maybe the reason they were so obvious is that we haven't had any rain to speak of all spring.

Some still drag pastures but a lot of pasture gets disc in the fall to plant rye grass so there is really no need for it.

Boring job,..don't fall asleep!
I got a good 100 acres where i fed all winter to do as well. The pies are thicker than hairs on a dog.
I use a 32' wide drag made from semi tires.

That's a pretty nice set up do the spring tooth just scratch the surface or how deep do you run em
