KSU Machinery Caculator says it is within reality:

Assumptions...

SM in 3rd gear (Tractordata said 5 mph Close enough for me)

28 shanks on an 14 foot digger (I have a Glencoe 11' (folded) and it has 21 shanks)

Digger will be ran in folded position

Soft soil (I doubt we are doing single pass on sb stubble. One could also assume you are not knocking down chisel plow/mb. When farming in 1953 that is what a disc or double discing is for)

Here is the link:

You can spend a lot of time on there. :lol: There is also an android app for those who need the info on the go.

Field Cultivator

Primary tillage tool - 52 drawbar hp

Secondary tillage tool - 38 drawbar hp

3-16s @ 8" in 2nd gear will require 42 drawbar hp so it can't be too far off. To shake it up in 3rd you need 72 drawbar hp. Plow like a girl at 6" and you only need 55 hp. :lol:
