For the soft spot, I'm in ND similar soil, strip 6 inches below grade lay matting, put crushed concrete down 2 inches at a time and lightly water than 2 more until about 6 inches above grade. Rough numbers but you will love it and it's cheap. The cement isn't all hydrated so when you water it it will harden and the rock locks together really well. I do a few drive ways a year like that and never had any problems.

Mr Millennial, I are a old logger so call me a cavetime adviser: Take something that can get down in that soft spot a good three minimum feet, It would be better if it were a good five or so till you figure out how this works... stack logs from your forest there, like the one that has little value as it will here. Build a cord wood bed across the muddy spot an past a bit. Then fully bury with your rock mud making sure that the cord wood is totally covered. What happens is above ground and not touching dirt, it dries and hardens or in the ground totally buried it will stay sound for years but if it gets air, then it will rot in a season. It is the same as using mats to move equipment across the mud / muskeg here and lasts for many years as in like some here are twenty to thirty years old and we are driving various rigs across it for miles as it just is ice deep down an our warm summers is bringing the frost out of the ground. I know it is embarrassing to have rotten corn, bean or otherwise laying around the food bins but it happens. I think if it drys enough then you can get to it and shovel it into a area that the skidsteer can load it up and your can use it for composting the soil. I don't know if it would try to seed the area or not but I am confident a farmer can figure it out. Those logs should do the trick but try to get a couple layers on the spot needing covered

Zach, get a safety harness and a tie off lanyard for when you need to climb a) up the bin ladders and b) need to crawl around in the bin on top of the grain stored. As kids we used to play in the bins in the stored barley / wheat, never realizing the danger present. Until one of my brothers almost got swallowed in the grain. Harnesses and lanyards are a BIG issue in the oilpatch and I've learned that they're cheap compared to a lost life.

To fix the frost heave, dig out two feet deep, check how soft it is if it is soft (can push a #4 rebar in the ground) dig another foot, place non woven geotextile and backfill the excavation with gravel and sand fill that has less than 8% fines. That should support even your loaded semi.

I Thankyou you Zach for addressing the important people during these difficult times, but most importantly this country moves by truck and as a extrucker I couldn't imagine facing these difficult times especially trying to find a place to eat other than a truck stop and the farmers feeding America. And all our medical workers and military stepping up to help out where needed. Watching you explain things about working your planter over as when I was involved with farming as a hiredman I would work machinery over during the winter in the shop where it was out of the wind in front of a knipco to stay warm. And I totally reworked every row on a 12 row from fold back in the mid 80's and the boss came in the shop and I said I was done with the planter and he says Oh I have some news for you I traded the planter off for a new one and they will be coming out to get this one and I'm like really lol. I love your videos and your line of green machinery.

Most of seeding is done exept of course for corn and the beans that we grow in order NOT to import soybeans. Sorry. But small grain, sugarbeets are all seeded. After a very wet Fall and winter it is now quite dry and still rather cold. We need some rain and warmth. Good luck for the season. Niels

Regardless, the function it serves is to make the gauge wheels walk over bumps, like the Roll-o-Matic front end on narrow front end John Deere row crop tractors from the 1950-60's. The row unit end up lifting only half of the height of the bump that way. I an employed at John Deere.

This is probably a bad idea but par for my course. A fix for that bad gravel spot? Dig out the gravel for several inches, pour several inches of water into the hole, and then dump a bunch of Quickrete fast setting concrete mix straight into the water until the mix and the water looked mixed. It's supposed to set up in less than and hour. Throw gravel on top and should, possibly, maybe, fix your weak spot.
