Whereas Orscheln Farm and Home barely lacks in organization, eye appeal. What drops Orscheln’s is the price options and that can potentially lead to loss of potential customers.

    Saskatchewan Farmers In The Early 1900's Tractors

    In the early 1900’s tractors were not yet as advanced as they are today. Oxen pulled the first plows that cut into the prairie sod. They were very inexpensive, making it a good option for a farmer that didn’t have a lot of money. However, oxen were often stubborn and unreliable. As soon as farmers could afford to they replaced their oxen with horses. Although horses were more expensive they were much more obedient than the oxen were. Horses than became the main source of power for most Saskatchewan farmers for decades. The number of horses on Saskatchewan farms grew from 84,000 in 1905 to 507,000 in 1911 and by 1921 there were about 1,169,000 horses on Saskatchewan farms.…

    Comparing Wisconsin Family Farms

    I am a 4th generation farmer. My great grandparents bought our farm from more distant relatives making it a dairy farm. My grandfather then took over the farm from his parents continuing with the dairy farming. My Uncle Nick mostly runs the farm now, a Holstein beef farm, with my grandfather doing little and myself doing whatever I can. We farm on about 80 acres. I work on the farm almost 24/7 in the summer, but in the winter I work only on weekends. We raise about 20 steers at a time selling them to family and friends. We personally don’t have any hired workers. All we have is family that works whenever they can. Many people say that corporate farms are doing the US and Wisconsin good in both producing…

    Tractor Pulls and the National Tractor Pullers Association

    Tractor pulling is said to have started around the 1860’s during the time when farm machinery was pulled by horses. Back then farmers would brag to each other about whose horse was stronger overall. As the boasting started, pulling was created. The farmers would challenge each other and it would be settled by hooking up a barn door to the back of their horses. After hooking up the barn door, one by one people would jump on while the horse pulled; whichever horse pulled the most people the farthest distance was declared the winner. From the idea of horse pulls came tractor pulls, in 1929 motorized vehicles were first used in competition. When it first started out there was no set of rules or regulations so the sport was recognized but not as popular as it is now because it was difficult for entry with varying rules from state to state.…

    A Career In Professional Landscaping

    With the right equipment, it is easier to accomplish different jobs. How to judge whether you have the right equipment is simply judging that yourself, depending on how big your business is. Some businesses are just strictly mowing and fertilizing, and some businesses acquire everything. If one's business is just strictly mowing and fertilizing then one's business should have a couple different varieties of mowers, such as zero turns, walk behind or stand on mowers and possibly a couple push mowers. For fertilizing issues a couple different types of spreaders would come in handy, while someone's business is larger than others, they may have a standon unit with a spreader on it that drives to make fertilizing and seeding more easier and more efficient to cover more ground in less time rather than walking. Larger landscaping companies may require more equipment because of the fact that they deal with more work and work that takes longer to deal with. Other examples of needing more equipment is that if one's business is large enough, they may have to deal with more than one crew, that may even involve closer to having 5 crews. While talking to jeremy and his father pete, they gave the example of a business with multiple crews, one or two crews, can be specific “mowing and weekly yard maintenance crews”, another being, a “landscaping crew” that involves installing landscaping features, and other…

    Agriculture and Tractor

    The tractor industry reported a strong 28.3% growth in sales volumes during 2009-10, thereby ending the phase of cyclical correction that had pulled down tractor sales during the preceding two years (200709). Significantly, the revival of 2009-10 happened despite the droughtlike conditions in many States during the kharif1 season dampening sentiments. The key factor enabling the demand growth of 2009-10 was strong rural liquidity, which in turn was sustained by several factors, including: higher minimum support price (MSP) for crops; greater ability of farmers to make cash purchases (including the usage of Kisan Credit Card which are increasingly being used to part-finance tractor purchases); enhanced employment opportunities (with rural employment schemes being implemented by the Government of India); an improved credit environment; and continuance of replacement demand. These factors apart, non-agricultural use of tractors (for haulage in construction and infrastructure projects) continued to increase, benefiting tractor demand. Also, with infrastructure projects and rural employment schemes increasing employment opportunities, availability of labour for agricultural activities continued to decline, persuading even farmers with medium-sized land holdings to either rent or purchase tractors. On a regional basis, the performance of the eastern, northern and western parts of the country was robust during 2009-10 in terms of tractor demand, while that of the southern region was moderate. A strong growth in tractor volumes, albeit on a low base, was witnessed in the eastern States, including Bihar, Orissa and Jharkhand, which had a good paddy crop. Tractor volumes in the northern and western regions also reported strong growth during 2009-10, especially in the second half (H2) of the year, benefiting from a low base (H2, 2008-09) and a satisfactory kharif crop in some States. The southern region reported moderate performance in terms of tractor demand…
