Subject: RE: How many hp per foot of field cultivator do you use?


Boone, Iowa

I had a 46-1/2 ft field TM II behind an STX 450 Quad with a QSX15 Cummins.  I have a Steinbauer on the tractor to help with the ripper in the fall.  It pulled it like a sheet of plywood.  I updated field cultivators and was concerned on how big of a field cultivator I could pull, but have some power on reserve.  Ended up with a 60 ft Wil-Rich QX2 with rolling baskets.  I can pull this field cultivator as easy as the TM II and go 8.5-9 mph, if I want to.
