Just curious if anyone out there as any thoughts on the new Tier compliant engines. Any noticeable difference in horsepower between older tractors without the Tier emissions standards and the new…Continue
I graduated from California University of Pennsylvania with my Bachelor's of Science degree in Broadcast Meteorology in December of 2009. I completed my internship at WTOV-9 in Steubenville, OH the summer before. I enjoyed it, but not as much as I enjoy farming.
I've lived on a farm all my life and I'm the 6th generation in my family to work on our 96.6 acre farm in Southwestern Pennsylvania. We grow corn, soybeans, oats, wheat and alfalfa/timothy/smooth brome grass hay. Right now I'm the hay & wheat guy. I sell small square bales to folks who race horses. My main goal is to eventually get my own farm.
My fleet of equipment includes a 1979 White 2-105, a 1974 Oliver 1755, a 2004 NH 169 hay tedder, a 2006 Vicon Andex 653 double rotary rake, a 2006 NH 570 small square baler, and four Steel Gap Hill 18ft hay wagons.
Other than that I am a dedicated Green Bay Packers fan, West Virginia Mountaineer fan, Jeff Gordon fan, and Pittsburgh Pirates fan.

I spend a week in Pa every summer doing a consulting project, your ground sure looks familiar. I have a friend who knows that tractor inside out if you ever have a problem. We both like to help other farmers.
