Oops Stuck Tractor

If you've never sunk a machine, you have never done tillage

Great video, nobody got hurt, tractor got out, the rain may have put a damper on the day's work, but the tractor is out. Thanks for sharing.

I am new to the channel. I have subscribed. You are not stupid. Breakdowns, getting stuck, etc., is part of farming. The retrieval is the fun part. Molly you do an excellent job putting the videos together. I have been watching older videos which are fun to watch. You do a nice job editing and narrating. Y'all are the first potato operation I have ever seen. Lived in the Portland OR metro area for 35 years. Retired and left. Yankum ropes uses a nylon braid sheath with an internal core of strait nylon cords. You can drive forward on a slack line, The line stretches and uses the stored kineic energy pops stuck equipment right out. While in college a contract farmer drove a brand new steiger into the cattails, That is stupid. It took a D8 cat and two other high HP tractors to pull it out of the cattails.

Great video Molly and Shane

That was a big OOOPPPS! I like how you keep if fun and laugh it off!! Could be one of your Blooper videos. Keep smiling!😁

I love how you stay positive and see the funny side of farming life. As many have commented it’s only those who do nothing who don’t get into problems, good video and well done to Shane and yourself for working through a little problem!

Yay! From solid to soup in one length of a tractor - hard to believe. It was amazing how the JD crawled out on it's own once the front axel was out of the soup pit. Lots of people talk about how great their straps are, but not so many brave enough to show their mistakes. 😉 Those tire chains are awesome! Amazing how Shane was able to wiggle himself out of a tricky situation! I wish we all could all be as cheery as you Molly. 😊

Alright now Shane to the rescue! I will say when you get stuck Molly you really get it stuck good…and deep! Crikey!! 😉😂

Wow! You were sunk! Nice teamwork getting free from that mess! 👏🏼👍🏼

I guess if you’re going to get stuck you may as well do it good. Tomorrow is a new day and hopefully things get better. Thanks for sharing.

I don't believe that you messed up. I"m sure the flash rains we're experiencing there are hundreds of fields that are either flooded out or appear to be dry but the water table is a foot under the surface. I commend your attitude for not getting P off and angry.. Given your original background, I complement your happy and can do attitude. Your work ethics is to be admired.

Down to the frame, well done.

If you never buried a tractor, you're not farming 😂

Yup! Looks like you found the wettest spit in the field Molly! Just another humbling experience when using heavy machinery on unstable ground. You guys handled it with patience and got the tractor out of there. Great work!

That tractor came out a lot easier than I thought. During our wet years here in ND many a tractor or combine needed to be dug out using an excavator or pulled out by a semi wrecker. Later on those events make for great stories.!!!

Gotta respect a girl who walks about with a tie chain casually swung over her shoulder 👍

Everyone who farms any size of land gets stuck and nearly everyone gets out without needing to call in the Ron Pratts and Heavy D's 🙂I think you did a great job getting it free!

It's nice to have friends!

Molly, don't worry about the small stuff, every farmer gets stuck once in awhile! But you did a good job getting it stuck! 😅

Kallstrom Sweet Corn here . When we first moved to Eastern Washington aprox. years ago , We had to learn the soils . One day we had 2 tractors a pickup & a motorcycle stuck all in the same area
