Hey Rob ever thought of goats.

Are you certain its GRT?

Yes you need a bucket and a crowd action or folding arm bucket not a fixed arm

GRATITUDE💥🤩💥

This was your most informative video that I’ve seen. Just about general knowledge, but it’s helped out. Thank you.

I have plan start export this one

From my 20year experience on a 28 acre block in the Northern Territory a 4wd tractor in my case i bought a low hr john deer 2320 for 20k with nugget slasher for the firebreaks and paddocks and mid deck mower for lawns. 150 litre sprayer on carry all for spraying and emergency fire fighter, I didn't get a front end loader attachment which I really regret. Grader blade attachment for driveway and firebrands 6x4 trailer with ibc and Honda waterpump for firefighter. The hydrostatic drive on the tractor was a dream to use compared to my old iseki geared tractor

I think larger, more developed plants, that are older and more mature have the ability to grow for many months just on internal reserves. I have no definitive evidence, but I have seen many first-hand examples of mature plants growing and dividing on very little nutrition after some time of healthy vigorous ideal condition growth. No doubt this system has residual nutrients, I just think some plants can enter a survival mode if they are healthy enough when conditions change.

I usted mined for mangoes

Have you looked into mahindra as a possible option?

Hello Rob, Thank you very much for your excellent videos. I am going to make my first wicking raised bed in Pennsylvania, USA, using your videos as a guide. No prior experience. Can I use weed barrier (also called landscape fabric here) instead of the geotextile fabric? I assume they are both permeable, but the goetextile fabric is probably more sturdy. Appreciate your input.

Gday Rob, A tractor really is a game changer and a front end loader is seriously important to making life easier and being more efficient particularly if it is has a 4 in 1 bucket. My advice would be that bigger isn’t always better when it comes to tractors. For example when I’m slashing around trees, I use my Massey Ferguson as there is no cab to damage and you can get in close and it’s lighter as opposed to the Mahindra. Sometimes it feels like you’re losing the battle with GRT but you just have to keep at it. We are having an emerging GRT problem in part of our place because the neighbours won’t address there’s it but I’m about to get “creative”. If chemicals are not going to work for you, you could always cut the seeds and chip out the plant with a hoe or use a flame attachment to your gas bottle. Your place is certainly looking green now. All the best.

I'm glad 8 years ago you took pity on that tiny little sweet potato slip.

We looked at the uhi brand but ended up going the kioti, the price was a bit more but it came with bucket and forks, the back hoe was half price and it has the 4 hydrolic plugs so you dont have to buy and install extra, and our local dealer could service it for us and easily enough to source spare parts too. Those are the big considerations when you buy it can it do everything i need it to do, and can i source spare parts easily enough for it, and if i need someone else to repair or service it can a local do that for me. If you end up going the UHI brand ill be interested in the reviews and watching it in future videos to how it holds up

sorry no help but recommend a used Ford 8N....manageable size and bullet proof.

Poor old chook chook. Saw the short she had more luck than our old chook. Hope you can get a good deal on the tractor.

Always amused by councils telling the new owners to get noxious weed under control. Its not like you trucked it up with your furniture and spead it around with some fertiliser. It was there before you bought the property, why weren't they on the former owners backs?

🤙👍

My tree produces flowers but no fruit

Chook Chook fights another day..🐔 Jack to the rescue...Good boy🐕

If you go and buy a cheap spanner to do a job, you will buy a cheap spanner every time you need to do a job. I work for a company with nearly 100 tractors. It's the shitty old ones that cost the most money. I understand money constraints and whatever else, but your farm will live and die by the quality of your equipment. It will be cheaper in the long run to pay someone to slash your property while you save up for a proper piece of kit.

G'Day Rob, I hope that you have no more incidents with the foxes. Good luck on finding a tractor 👍

See about getting a person with a caterpillar D9 for hire

Good luck with the tractor. If it was 6 years ago, and you were in SA, we were selling my Opa's one. Can't remember the brand, but had bucket, scoop, grader/ shredder, etc. He tried to teach me to drive on it eons ago. A bit hard when it's up a VERY steep hill. 😂 Have you looked into fox/ wild dog baiting options? Not too sure how safe they'd be around Jack though. Most local governments and councils have info, and sometimes freebies, for that sort of thing. We have foxes in our area, but thankfully only ever had one in the yard (touch wood) in the 20 years we've been here. But our large yard on the edge of suburbia surrounded by farmland is now a large yard surrounded by new build ticky tacky houses, so more trouble with irresponsible people's cats than foxes these days. Cat laws and curfew totally ignored. 🙄 All the best - Janis the craftily recycler.😊❤

All of my family members have heavy tractors. They purchased theirs from equipment rental places. It's a great way to find semi older models that have had their maintenance routinely done, and generally rental places only purchase brands that are reliable and easily source parts from. That being said, Quick attach with skid-steer is massive, you can get rock buckets, diggers, stump busters, pallet forks, or basically any skid-steer attachment for relatively cheep either new or second hand! However, most Skid-steer hydraulic attachments will not be compatible due to flow rates. If you're comfortable doing all your tractor maintenance and repairs on site, great. Otherwise, make sure you have a way to move it around. I'm the only one in my family which can actually move their tractor off their property without hiring someone for the day or paying hundreds of dollars extra to have someone come out if something major goes wrong.

Try Bundaberg Auctions for your tractor Rob.

I would leave second hand tractors alone unless you have some experience in them . Get a bucket no doubt you need to do fire breaks so rotary. Don't under power for future jobs what ever they maybe. I'd go new go known.

Tarp the red things. Makes great for composting.

We have a Landini 5860 with a 4-way bucket. It was never maintained but works OK. Once it dies I will be getting a UHI.

I got a Massey 1835M a couple of years ago with bucket and backhoe. A bucket is a must, backhoe sure is nice. You don't realize how handy it is. 🚜 It took a long time to save up to get it! 💰

I feel the unexpected expense, in my case it was a loss of my income stream that was helping me tick off my to do/buy list

My suggestions: If you’re going to be using the bucket with any kind of weight, you need 4 wheel drive. As soon as you load up the front end with more than a few hundred kilos the rear tires lose almost all traction. Also, get a bigger tractor than you think you need. It’s a “buy once, cry once” situation.

yeah, you definitely want a front end loader, if it were me, I'd make sure it's a skidd steer quick tach on the bucket, makes it easer to swap out pallet forks or hay spear etc. If you can, get the loader with a 3rd function, makes it easer to get a grapple in the future, rear remotes on the hydraulics help too. For the rear 3 point, try to get extendable links on the lower arms, makes swapping between brush hog, box blade or other 3point so much easier. Granted, all that costs money, but if you're having to finance, it shouldn't balloon the cost too much over the course of the note . So, looking at your place, 45 or 55 HP would be the smallest I'd go based on the size of your land. Good luck, and be safe. Another thing to think about for your grass is a weed torch. burn it out. It would take time, and you'd have to be careful to make sure not to start a fire.

Our tractor had the option for a backhoe with the bucket. Our biggest mistake was not getting the backhoe in the beginning.

I wouldn't risk one cent buying a new cheap Chinese tractor from a company that is only 6 years old. Spend a few extra dollars and go for a Korean or Japanese brand that has a been around decades, offers a few years warranty and who has parts available.

Yeah I can see that you guys had some setbacks. I hope that with time everything works out the right way for you both. And I also hope that you can make a nice deal with the dealership. Older tractors are nice if you have a complete workshop with all the tools and when you have some mechanical experience and when you like tinkering on machines. When you need to get a job done a new machine is much more reliable. And it will most likely have AC and other features that makes the tractor much more practical in use.

Once the fixes know where they can get a meal, they WILL be back.

Good to see you Rob.

Poor Chook chook! So glad she's still with you. ❤

chook chook is a badass....you know she got a piece of those foxes...

Need to get a protection dog

Oh Chook. Great that you and Jack were there. I hope she recovers quickly
