10 Old Moldboard Plows That Farmers Loved for Decades

They don't build moldboard plows like this anymore — and farmers know it. From the International Harvester Little Genius to the legendary IH 720 Automatic Reset, these were the plows that turned millions of acres, survived rocks and brutal soil, and stayed in farm families for generations. In this video, we're counting down 10 legendary moldboard plows farmers refused to give up, including the Case Centennial, Oliver Raydex, John Deere No. 44, Ford Dearborn, Allis-Chalmers Snap-Coupler, Massey Ferguson 880, John Deere F145, IH 720, and John Deere 2450. Some were revolutionary because they were easier to pull. Others introduced replaceable shares, automatic reset systems, three-point hitch compatibility, or heavy-duty designs that could survive years of hard tillage. These weren't just farm implements. They were the machines that helped define an era of American agriculture — back when turning the soil black every fall was simply part of farming. And many of them are still working today.
