What about in beans? You don’t get more unthreshed pods?

Informative video.

How difficult is it to loose the music in these videos!!!!!!!! When u see him in public the music doesn't magically start

Thank you.

Yep always for the green machine nothing for the red

Always great advice !! Appreciate your vids !!! 😀🇨🇦

It should entirely decomposed by around 6 months

Butt Shelling. #goatfarmer

Are those quarter round inserts a Deere product or yours. They look easy to work with.

Marion Calmer should manufacture a strip till machine at 15" OC

Where did you purchase that soil probe? Seems like that would make it very easy rather than the push out ones.

The biggest loss at the header is caused by running the reel too low and too fast

Do you account for soil moisture when you pull samples? I assume you pull samples when it's dry on top and not wet. I think they say K levels come back low when dry

Are you trying cover crops?

Love your information it’s scientific yet practical 👍 keep it coming!!

Enjoy hearing your research and knowledge you’ve learned. Always appreciate the tips to help the rest of us on our operations !!! 😀🇨🇦

Always a pleasure to listen this man! He knows a lot and I something each time I hear him.

What if i sprayed the fertilizer and turn it under with a plow you are no till you want like that idea

Thanks for Great information. May i know the distance or dimensions of this concave

Thanks for the knowledge

Dry drop? Academics make new names for old concepts. We do side dress though…

How do you prevent overloading the front of the chaffer if this is allowing more through again?

That looks like my combine

From my experience Every thing he said is correct. Choosing the right hybrid is key. 37,500 is the sweet spot for me. I look at it slightly different though. If I bump the population up 20 % I also bump the P&K up 20%. I look at it like I am farming 20% more acres with out the cost of rent 20% more acres. If the corn doesn't need the extra P&K it will be there for the soybeans next year anyway.I spray a real good pre-emerge, one and done and my corn fields are really clean. If I do need to spray like I spray in soybeans , at a 90 degree angle. I actually see the bigger yield bump in a little tough ground. The extra residue in the fall may be the biggest challenge so far.

you work very hard and you harvest the labor of your works,keep up the good work and perseverance! And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.

Marion, for wheat, we have a small operation and about 60 acres. what about using the inserts in the first two concaves meaning the ones you refer to as venention blinds. with our low acreage of wheat i dont feel buying wire concaves is realistic so what would you recommend for use with the bar concaves. can those filler plates that you found in kansas be used on the back of the round bar concaves. maybe use one of those and then several inserts??? just wondering your thoughts. thx

We need to do a video interview. I was that really handsome big guy that you met that Iowa strepto conference last year I think we could have a really good time just talking about this and you getting an opportunity to answer all these questions

Would I be able too use the max flow in soybeans also or would that be for corn only ?

I am curious what had already been done to that ground that was being Strip Tilled at 3:52-4:17 ? It appears to have already been Inlined Ripped or had Anhydrous Ammonia applied to it. I am just surprised to see Strip Tilling at a Angle if you are going to be Planting Corn into that the Following Year.

The drone image at 4:15 showing the wide grass swath being skipped over, is that a drainage erosion-risk strip? Or an equipment road? If used for traffic I'd push it to the perimeter where trees and deer eat up the yield. If erosion control, is it seeded with anything other than grass like beneficial insect/pollinator habitat?

Howd these work this year?

Been good in Illinois

I think you best results will come from you strip tilled acres. I switched to strip till several years ago and I cannot understate the importance of having nutrients right below the seed. It’s impossible for roots to avoid the P,K, and N that I apply. Every year I wonder why I didn’t start doing it sooner.

Your ph is very low. I would not expect any nutrient application to have a good roi until the ph is corrected.

If you do a longer then two yr study the yield will even out. We did a 4 yr comparison and yrs 3 and 4 evened out as long as it is in the same spot every yr

I like the change you are making. Instant gratification concerning stratification. No pan left to interfere with roots or nutrients or moisture

I’d say your problem would be solved via cover crops and microbial action. We put so much thought in to the chemistry, and not enough in to the biology. A living root trades carbohydrates for nutrients with the microbes. All those little bastards do is go back and forth, back and forth like robots.

Have you taken a soil test inch by inch on the ground you tilled for several years now and compared with the original samples?

Lotta tractor for that chisel

Been great here in missouri

Cab corn!

After a while you just have to break up the years of compaction and let the dirt breathe.

There were a few hybrids that rolled thru about 5 years ago that were dropping cobs prematurely. So they bred for tougher plant/cob connections and as a result, there is more butt shelling. But unless you had a perfect year and your cobs are hanging down at 19%, you will have that issue. Your corn was like ours, standing straight up and sometimes with half an inch of water in them.

Hhhhh

Can't wait to get your kit on our agco next season. Couldn't pull it off for this year.

Very interesting video, spoiled by the irritating background "music"

Spray foam

Which combines do u like better green or red

Nice solid report. Thanks.

Have you thought about experimenting with subsurface banding of P & K? Definitely agreed there is an advantage of getting those nutrients down in the root zone, but you’re not comparing apples to apples here with the tillage component
