    1200 hp! There has got to be 60 or 80 lbs of fertilizer in the exhaust from that alone. You should figure a way to plumb that into the ground too

    Tractor farts are a valuable resource.

      I met a farmer in Russia who has quit fertilizing. He claims to be spreading Bacteria of some sort and they are providing everything he needs. It appears to be working. But I expect that he is simply mining the soil faster, and since he has 4 feet of rick black soil to mine, he can likely mine it for a long time before noticing.

      N fixing grass type crops would be my dream come true. I have no doubt that it will happen.

              Maybe with a bit of effort you can get that rig upto 1.21 gigawatts and maybe downhill you can hit 99mph and boom...back to the future!

                Anyways! Pics are coming. I like to give the fields a good zap right before seeding. As an additional benefit ive noticed 2 to 3 point higher soil temp and quicker germ.

                    hopperbin's sorely missed
                    For his humour and willing assist
                    He shared heart and feelings
                    And even farm dealings
                    His good deeds too many to list.

                    Sleep well.
