SW Saskatchewan | We have one of each. You pays your money and takes your chances.
We have found that a lot of weight is transferred to the tractor on the tbt , sometimes good , sometimes not.
If you are going to pull sweeps and have a real load, best lift and seed back and forth with a tbt, the cart axles won't take the side draft on a turn for round and round seeding.
The tbh will pull marginally harder, extra wheels and on worked ground. The bigger the Tank, the more difference. If you are going to a big bourgault tank, consider the tow between. Also, our land is just a bit hillier than where Ed B farms and the side draft make for quite a few wedge shaped skips on side hills if you don't apply the proper "windage".
If you have big tanks, you will get tired of those skimpy liitle drill fills that you use behind a box truck. Buy a 10" auger from Sakundiak, a 35 hp motor with mover and put it under a semi. With a tbh, you will get tired backing the tank under the auger. With a tbt , you can drive under, fill and slip away with no problem.
As for compaction, I hope you do the sunday crop inspection tour of your neighbours crops and can learn from their experience.
And if you no till, that blind spot behind a tbt can lead to some interesting vocabulary!
Have a good one. | |
