Big Buds, Big Plows & lots of Tractors at the 2023 Alvordton Ohio Plow
In this video I headed up to Alvordton Ohio for their annual plow day. The event was delayed a day due to rain but things dried out just enough that they were able to get out in the field and plow up some harvested wheat ground. This event was open to the public. You could come to watch or bring a tractor and plow and get in on the action. Lots of vintage tractors and plows here and I believe I got most of them here in this video.
All of the footage in this video was recorded and edited by me and is not to be copied and republished.
Thanks for watching the video and check back often as I am always adding new videos to my KZhead Channel.

  • It's good to see that 650/50 still getting dirt turned over. Funny story, that particular Big Bud used to be on a dryland grain farm in NE Colorado several years back - a farm I used to work at, and used to run tillage with that Bud. Most often I ran it with a 64' field chisel behind it, which it pulled like it really wasn't even there. The farm used to run it with a 82' Friggstad behind it as well; it'd cover roughly an acre a minute with that rig. That machine is an absolute beast, always has been. Glad to see the current owner has treated her well.

  • Interesting that I can't recall seeing a reversible plough on your content Mike. It does take twice the metal and weighs more but obviously not taken on in your farming systems. Ploughs are going out of fashion but in England it is all reversible, start one side of a field and work across with no ridges or open furrows. Time running on the headlands must add up , how wide before they open another cut?
