Finally got finished planting. Planted some corn, oats and barley this year. With the high cost of fertilizer I decided to grow some barley for feed to cut back on corn. Was tough yet, but not the worst. Was cold and wet to start, then got a bit done, then got over 5 of rain over a week. I used the 1030 for chisel plowing, discing, and harrowing.
The 1030 ran good this year, I had the injection pump and injectors redone this spring. Runs better now, but starts smoking as soon as a load is put on. I'm wondering if I have the timing off or a setting is off in the pump. Runs great ad pulls good, just smokes all the time. Not thick black smoke, and even under heavy load it's not excessive, just all the time.
Planted with the 400 again and the case 454 corn planter and case grain drill. All worked great. The hydraulic pump on the 400 is getting weak, so I'll need to address that before next year.
Had a little shower pass through while I was planting barley and when I stopped to check the seed level I caught this pic.
Did get stuck a couple times. Working around wet spots and pot holes gets frustrating. This time h the previous pass went fine, then this.
In my area that's how it is most years. Had a flat on the 1030 this year too. Came out in the morning and saw the tube sticking out the side wall of the tire. Found an old vulcanized patch that went bad.
There are no new tires available in that size right now, but I was able to find a used one that will get me by til I can get new ones.
Didn't get many pics of the fields this year, was too busy I guess.
Now it's spraying and getting ready for hayng. That is coming sooner than I want too. Hope you enjoyed the pics.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: 1929 McCormick-Deering 10-20 - by Randal Simmon. On July 4th 1998 my dad and I was sitting on the front porch when he said that he was going to sell his two 10-20's to a junk man. He said that the junk man was going to give him $500 for both of them but he hadn't received the money for them yet. So I went into the house and wrote him a check for $500 and bought them myself and said now they are mine. He had bought them about five years before thinking that he was going to restore them himself. After five years sitting in the barn, he changed h
