This is a YouTube video titled "John Deere 8R 410 eAutoPowr: POWER Meets PRECISION on the Farm" featuring Emil Olsen discussing organic farming operations on a large scale, including the use of various John Deere tractors and organic fertiliser production. The content is a monologue or presentation focused on farm machinery performance and agricultural practices, recorded in August 2025.
Welcome to Slutter Gourd. We have an organic fertiliser production here. My name is Emil Olsen. We grow organic crops on approximately 1600 hectares. Besides that, we have some conventional crops that will transition to organic in July. Right now it's spring cultivation time and we're working at full speed out in the fields. Everything's going well. We have in total seven John Deere tractors and we have everything from a 9 RX to a 6R 185. Additionally, at our Storschela farm we we produce organic agro pellets with various NPK substrates. This is separate from our operations at Zlutte. That's how we produce fertiliser for a variety of different organic products. In the autumn of 2024 we got to test an 8R 410E autopower. It was primarily used for plowing and harrowing. It was a really nice tractor and the transmission was smoother than we're used to. So naturally everyone wanted to drive that tractor. There was a race to be the first one out in the morning and get to drive it. When we drive the ATAR 410 we feel that it has a more modern cab, a slightly better design, but above all I think it's a more comfortable seat. The previous one had been a bit spongy, also good, but when you sit in this one it's something completely different. Then there is the new display, which is. Well, for me is straightforward. I don't need to fiddle with it. I just go in, do what I need to do and it's easy to get an overview. Here on the farm we use RTK for everything. The team responsible for sowing and row cultivation uses a chameleon seed drill or row cultivator for band sowing and row cultivation. But the support from Elias at Gunnar's Maskana has been excellent, so it works great. Because we are located north of Torboda, we are very close to the workshops in Torboda. There is a backup nearby if we need anything. Otherwise, service and maintenance are scheduled well in advance, ensuring this doesn't disrupt our day, which is rather important just before the busy season. If I were to describe the ATAR 410 in three words, I'd say it has an incredibly awesome gearbox. Sturdy, really comfortable to drive and easy to use.
