Change in Farming Methods Reflected in New Equipment
Caribou County farmer Bob Hubbard uses a large 335 horsepower diesel tractor with eight 23.1 x 26 tires and hydraulic four-spool control to seed 1200 acres in seven days. The system combines tilling, weed destruction, and seeding in a 36 foot sweep, followed by cross harrowing with a crawler that smooths ground and removes transplants. Hubbard logged a 16 hour day, covering 250 acres on the final stretch.

Farming method changes barley planting across 6000-foot Idaho high country
Bob operates about 3000 acres of tillable land near China Hat mountain draining into Bear River and Blackfoot River. He adopted a once over tilling and seeding method since 1955 to plant barley, reduce trips, curb weeds, preserve moisture, and gain early growth. The approach, now common in the area, contrasts with older practices from 40 years ago.
