Easy Way To Measure Field Size
Ben Hoffman of Bradford, Maine recently sent FARM SHOW photos of this idea: “To measure the size of my fields, I measured the circumference of my tractor tire (104 in.) and then painted a bright yellow stripe behind one of the lugs. As I drive across the field, I count the number of tire revolutions, then multiply the number of revolutions by 104 and divide by 12 to get the distance in feet.”Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Ben Hoffman, 103 Storer Road, Bradford, Maine 04410 (ph 207 327-1064; bennmeh@gmail.com).
