Working in Dirt

I took these photos of a farmer preparing his field for planting in Idaho, just North of Idaho Falls. Thank God he was in an enclosed cab for the tractor because he sure was stirring up a lot of dust. When I go back up in the Spring I am guessing that field will possibly be full of potatoes.

I believe you are correct. He had long wings out the sides of the unit spraying something. This was in early November just before I left.
I have never seen a tractor of any type that had a single front tire. That was different for me.
Thanks for taking a look and commenting.

That was a very interesting set of photos! I am in Iowa and all I ever see is corn being planted or harvested.

Thank you Jill for a fine comment and for taking a look. I have heard corn grows in Iowa, lots of it. Tastes pretty good too.

Dennis, job well done..! I believe that farming is underappreciated by the younger generation. It takes a large investment and a lot of hard work as well as a blessing of good weather. I truly wonder who will be feeding the nation in the decades to come.
It's also great to see a farmer growing a food product like potatoes instead of a cash crop of subsidized corn. A recent broadcast stated that America grows on average the equivalent of 2,000-lbs. of corn for every man, woman, and child in America yet we import the majority of the fruits and vegetables that we eat every day.
