My trusty Case 930 and I are hard at it

Bruce, Do you realize 98% of the population in Canada and the USA would think that is weird that you would take such a picture. I think it is beautiful! My son just hauled out the horse manure 10 days ago with Jenny's New Holland 185 on our 1030. It is the only tractor I have with small 1000. I really should get a back up tractor. Bill

That's gotta be a heck of a load on the drawbar.

Rare to see a GP 930 in this part of Canada. They are all Western Specials here with the big fenders.

J Hamilton · Dec 17, 2021

I must fall in the 2% category because I think it's a good pic as well lol

Bruce from Can. · Dec 17, 2021

Really not too bad on the draw bar with tandem axles

Ah, the smell of fresh Dairy Air.....

Great picture Bruce. I know the younguns are wondering how you manage without a cab .... In Canada....In December ..... spreading Manure.

I bet you have to work Christmas too!

Peace, Larry

Course it beats the good old days when we milked by hand.

Im with you guys. Looks good to me! Nice Case.

Bruce,

I haven't hauled manure for a long time, but I remember the old days well. Let me say also, that I really admire the fact that you stick with milking cows. That's a real commitment to people to get that good nutrition but It's also a really admirable trait to provide for the animals as well. I haven't done any milking for about 30 years and although I don't miss it, I really admire the people that have stuck with it.

Thanks for your pictures and for your other posts. They always invoke memories.

If the apron chain broke that would be a lot of work with a fork.

Load of gold this year.

No apron chain, hydraulic push gate

Bobl1958 · Dec 17, 2021

Same here only mines not hydraulic..lol!

Roger Tomfohrde · Dec 17, 2021

We could get a majority of it out with a skid steer before forking the last out to repair the chains when that happened. Did not break the T-bar style very often though.

MARK ROBKE · Dec 17, 2021

I too, like the pic. That was my job when my Dad milked: I would haul while Dad did morning milking, or after we had breakfast. Dad did not want any ruts, so we only hauled manure when the ground was frozen or dry. So, the pic reminds me of being cold, LOL! Mark.

Spreading manure was always one of my favorite jobs. Especially in December after dark with the snow swirling and Christmas carols on the radio.

SVcummins · Dec 17, 2021

It doesnt have an apron chain hagadorns are hydraulic except the beater

SVcummins · Dec 17, 2021

Thats the way to farm

Bigeasy16 · Dec 17, 2021

Oh I been there. I use this here 4010. The only good use for these cabs. Cause theyre not sealed, not dampened so theyre noisy as heck. Though most people know this of course. Love it for spreading manure but even with ear plugs it itll like to blow my ears out.

caterpillar guy · Dec 18, 2021

You would be stuck with half that here .I wa picking/shelling corn with the rear wheels engaged last night all the time. We don't even dare to take the cart out in the field to fill. With 200 HP on the front with MEWD

J.Wondergem · Dec 18, 2021

I liked spreading manure too. But I sure hated loading it. I had to load it with a manure fork off a pile that was packed in from the Winter.
