1992 and low HP Fords? Would have just come through the tough 1980's where lenders avoided farmers on a regular basis unless you were a premium operation.

IH 45 vibra shank 12".

40 cow dairy in 1992 could make it with very low debt, highly productive soils, and highly productive cows. I just had this conversation with a younger neighbor. I explained while in 1980 15 tons of corn silage along with 5 tons dry hay might be a good yield for our neighborhood there were farms that had a much higher yield of crop output per acre due to soil differences. That gives other farms an advantage in terms of income to make improvements or expand. The co-ops basically priced to keep the most productive farms going. Note that the equipment I listed was on average 10 years of age which would be right for such a farm in 1992. Plenty of auctions then to find good low use equipment.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Part Number Trivia - by Forum Participants. "Replaced by" means the part was superseded. All of my part books date back to 1964 and New Holland have changed some part numbers. They usually put the old Ford part number on the package. I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the ... [Read Article]
