Hello, Patrick!
Man u got that so right
Nonee of what he said is true.
@@Vicariously_gifted been documenting this process regularly since planting. Nothing but video evidence and actual data here. May the best practice win.
@@PatrickShivers no till is a long term strategy not a single year.
@@Vicariously_gifted this field was part of a 5 year study
Hopefully Debby doesn't do your part of the country like Dallas. That would really suck...🤔
Pretty peanuts. Using Convoy and Bravo?
@@thewednesdaynightbiblestudyon Bravo & Monsoon
👍
I hear a guy over in arlington sold his land for 3million to the folks that own that quarry. Thats good money to get me to sell😂
You wver rebuilt your sprayer? Hoses,nozzles,etc?
@@AT-fc6kz this one is still pretty new, but I have worked on it some and done a lot of sprayer work on various sprayers for the last 20 years
Start back spraying tomorrow if the weather lets me.
@@rodom53 it was windy all day, so I ran the booms right off the nuts. Had to get it done.
@@PatrickShivers Too windy here. Had a few showers to.
Patrick never picked peanut's my fields are stony where do keep all your stones :? ? Ha ha never seen a stone in your fields l use t ake my kids planting and harvesting . Power on .love your farm!!! Use to grow lima beans had a guy harvest them he had a bean combine .
Hope Debbie the storm missed ya ll..
@@gittyupg007 it moved just east of here. We caught winds and clouds and scattered (none on my fields) showers
Your size operation would be perfect for a drone sprayer.
Getting it done!
Patrick, what price are you gonna sell your pumpkins for?
@@colefletcher-ox7xd $5…..if they make in time
@@PatrickShivers how much per pound?
@@colefletcher-ox7xd pumpkins aren’t sold by the pound. Sold by the fruit. $5 per pumpkin
@@PatrickShivers oh ok
What seed population did you use
Them Ole Perkins Engines Can't Be Beat And The Old Original True Blue Fords Say On Models 9700 On Down Were Very Reliable As Well For Us Down Here In Southern Decatur & Grady County Georgia. If I Remember Correctly In The Late 70's Early 80's KMC Built Some Planters That Mimic The JD 71's...Loved Our 180 & 285 MF, And The 7700 Fords...😊
@@lamarcutts2511 😳I’ve NEVER heard of a kmc planter or a 180 MF. Got something to look up now.
Been there it sucks. Hog feed though 🌽
Good job . There’s more to plowing and cultivating than I thought. You do a good job explaining what you’re doing and why.
@@johnscurlock1204 thanks for watching
Any updates on results from the ripper? Does it help yield and water drainage as much as it claims? Do you think its breaking up the hardpan layer?
@@Lelbron6 yes. I have multiple videos from this year on the ripper (this video is from last year). I sand blasted and painted it as well as hard surfaced it’s shanks. It absolutely helps yield and drainage in clay soils. I did a small trial last year in corn field. I averaged 240 bushels on the field, the non subsoiled section was well below 50 bushels. The non subsoiled section was disced and field cultivated. Stripe was down the center of field. It got everything the rest of the field got. The very next row to the left and right of the section was 240.
The tilled ground is braking down your organic matter quicker plant is taking up nutrients quicket , but will burn up all the organic matter quicker and dry out quicker, Better off in the long run no-till
Sry take care of your health who knows how many young farmers you will bring into farming if given enough time that's awful hot 1 lub
Can I get seeds please I am from Virginia
@@bizuhayhunbeyeneh4563 this was filmed last year. Those beans are long gone
Fans are a tough choice if the air is humid. Not a fun job, and you have to be aware of mold dust.
We call that particular plow design a switch plow in S.E Georgia. It was originally designed and produced by Harrel plow if memory serves me correctly and was copied by everyone else. That design made everyone a bottom plow expert lol. I am assuming that is going to be some peanut land. Most farmers in my area seem to skip this step and don't really know why other than time and cost. It makes a big difference in production and digging when the time comes.
@@dennisjenkins7040 it also cuts down nematode pressure and helps eliminate nut grass. Harrell ag did invent the On Land switch plow. Before them it was in furrow.
Stay safe man and hydrated ! How did moisture get into the bin ??
@@johnscurlock1204 didn’t run the fan enough when the outside temperature changed and it caused the corn to sweat.
Have a 40000 bu bin don’t use it truck load at harvest of to town it goes
What happened to Sabertooth?!
Here's the good news, you can use that old soured corn for bait the next time you set hog traps.
Put some diesel on it too
That's bad!
I feel that 100 degree feeling. Stay safe,no easy run.Leave them vents cracked.
@@gittyupg007 i got all the doors open and the fan on
Be safe brother and drink plenty of water
Do you realize with all the chemicals you use for a higher yeald causes cancer in animals and humans ? Oh ya but the money is better 😮
I’m having some of that same issue with my large and baby butter beans. I had one good flush then they stalled. I’m also getting a lot of 1 and 2 bean pods. They have loaded up with full size pods again but we are dry and in the high 90’s (heat indexes up to 110 degrees) for the next 12 days. My plan is to hit them every day with irrigation around 10am then turn them loose after 7 days. Hopefully the pods will fill out well then I can let the heat dry them down to pick and shell.
Not surprising, the only advantage is that no til won't release the trapped methane in the soil.
@@jhyrumgrant there is no methane trapped in the soil
Trying it out you say? So your land hasn't had the opportunity to heal from its chemical inputs yet? From its abuse of being tilled and not properly covered? You need to look at long-term effects.
@@MightyPenn constant experimentation on this, and most, farms. This field was previously no-till for 5 years. No chemicals during that same period. You assume too much. Watch this channel & learn some things. No residual chemical issues on any of my farm. Got videos of me planting over 1,000 acres of cover crop. I also sell cover crop seed that I raise. I’m the 4th consecutive generation to run these rows. We been looking for a while.

@@PatrickShivers thanks for what ya do 🤝
My dude out here sounding like Andy griffith, but doing science like Rick sanchez. Give me that data!!!
@@YeetLord666 my channel is devoted to agriculture education & explanations. Check out some of the full length videos, you won’t find a more diverse ag channel.
@PatrickShivers I appreciate it, brother, but farming killed my dad young, so I stay away from it. I grew up on his knee in a tractor in south Georgia, but I went the office work route.
Busier then a one legged man standing up on a hammock.
I am curious about protein content, oil and weight differences at harvest, though as others have said, the differences would need time to manifest as the soil biome restores itself.
Some people will never understand what you just said. Doesn't make it any less cool to see. Thank you for sharing. I love plants and growing.
The tilled field has way more production cost so it will be interesting to see how much they make per acre.
@@davegreene1198 $17 more per acre in the tillage.
And no crop circles yet, which is a good thing 😅
@@ricks7990 😂
You won’t see an advantage in just one season of no-till, it takes much longer than that for the advantages to pile up.
@@giannobong6778 this field was no-till for 5 years previously. At the end of the experiment it was the hardest ground on the farm and the poorest nutrient field I have. Took a lot of tillage and fertilizer to get it back to a point where it could have the possibility of growing a break even crop.
i love agriculture
Correct me if I'm wrong. I thought that tilling and growing burned through the nutrients faster, so the damage is greater over the long term. So, there are no short-term yields to be considered.
@@chadgdry3938 a lot of the tillage v no-till conversation on the internet is based on what people won’t the truth to be and not actual data. I continuously do trials on my farm (as do most farmers). I have yet to see a trial of my own or conducted by any university where no-till out yielded tillage. This field was previously no-till for 5 years. At the end of that trial it was the most nutrient depleted and hardest compacted ground on the entire farm.
What about using #hemp as a rotation crop ( uses less water and no pesticides or fertilizer )? There is a type of hemp that can harvest 2x in a season or so i am told. The may be a university program that you can source seeds and customers for the harvest.
@@TheOtherTingz Hemp needs extreme amount of pesticides as every pest that effects any crop in Georgia (the pest list is different for each row crop) also loves hemp. It’s virtually a super attractor for pests. When grown for CBD production you can not spray pesticides on it so you have to hand remove bugs and keep soap sprayed on it. It fixes nitrogen, but that’s not the same thing as needing no fertilizer. It still needs fertilization and herbicides. There is 2 harvest per year b/c the length of daylight hours triggers fruiting (once in the spring and once in the fall). Rotating hemp on 100+ acre fields would require a few dozen laborers and a 6 figure drying facility as well. I’ve looked into it.
Patrick how are you doing your rotation where soybeans are not on in rotation with your peanuts?
@@colefletcher-ox7xd soybeans follow the peanuts not peanuts following soybeans. Corn & wheat are both also in the rotation
@PatrickShivers ok so you have corn then peanuts then soybeans
@@colefletcher-ox7xd corn, peanuts, wheat, soybeans,
@@PatrickShivers ok
I love doing this kinda stuff at our place. Just trying it differently. I have tomatoes in-ground and some in raised beds. I just enjoy seeing how different they do really grow.
@@jannafolsom1069 every farmer I know is a constant experimenter.
What kind of treatment are we using on this crop? I'm just legitimately curious what kinds of fertilizers and whatnot you may have used. A lot of the no-till guys are saying they no longer need to add nitrogen fertilizer, and less pesticides if any. That's with the use of "nature strips" at intervals throughout the field though. I just think it'd be great if more farmers took a scientific approach to their crops, assuming they have the space and financial ability to do so. Thanks for the food 👍
@@daviscollyer8159 talk to some crop consultants or chemical salesmen. No-till guys use WAY more chemicals, both herbicides and pesticides. I applied a custom fertilizer blend per soil sample analysis to this field (there’s a full length video on my channel of the process). I have also sprayed herbicide across the entire field (on video also). This is a 3 part trial, there is a no-till no spray section shown in one of the full length videos.
People still use sorghum?
