Hey thanks for watching the video!
Bless your hearts with that video title. Prayers for your crops. God bless you hard working people. 💪🙏💙
I'm sorry you're having a hard season. Admire your efforts in keeping going. You're all hard working farmers. Thank you for sharing the good and bad of your lives.
Doing great. It's been tough for Farmers everywhere. Nice to see tires corrected. Lol. Keep positive and God will provide.
So sorry to hear about your most recent weather issues. Tough break for sure.
I heard that 'pitter patter', Jan. You're a Letterkenny fan!
'Aw ...come on Kitten, I won't tell anyone'!
Try running the loader in second gear when the sand pit is wet, it won't spin as easily but you still have the RPM for your hydraulics. Loading gravel we would do this, it helps alot. Keep smilin
Your resilience and hard work ethic is commendable.
Thanks for the video . Best wishes for the future. 👍😁
I like your positive attitude about the poor crop year. Hopefully next year will be a better year for you. Here in Ontario it has been so dry and very very humid
😊😊😊 always nice to have a saskdutchdog cameo
Barn progress looking sweet, hope for a full tour when it’s all finished! Keep up the content 🤙🏻
I saw the miss direction on the tires in the video but figured you had some Canadian reason for running them like that. Great videos Jan, keep it up.
Thanks Jan for such interesting videos.👍
Thanks Jan, would love to them lift the finished roof
Who else thought as he was attaching the hose to the machine in the manure pit……DONT FALL IN! Lol👍❤️🤞
Hey Jan, I have never seen a roof built on the ground. Can you shoot some footage of them putting it on the building? That would be interesting. Thanks for another great video!
Than
Here in the UK it's the best summer we have had in years. Loads of sunshine and good weather but plenty rain aswell.
I have such respect for people who work the land to provide our food. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. Cool drone footage. Careful in that sandpit. Beautiful part of Canada. New batn coming along.
Just one thing after another. Here's hopingother nature will calm down. Love the channel!
Thanks for farming!
Sorry to hear of the impact of the storm on your crops. There has been major impact on US farms also. Hope you are able to get enough to carry you through to the next crop season.
It has been a tough seas0on for you Jan, and feel for you. Under the best of circumstances, you still suffer some losses. Farming can be a tough life. Your positive attitude is a great asset.
When hail hits in Minnesota we chop it into a silo and mix it with cow feed...Not all is lost. Best wishes.
Your parents are truly blessed with such a great family.
That is why they call Saskatchewan “ The Land Of The Living Skies “. Sun, rain, hail, tornados.... If you don’t like the weather just wait a few minutes. Being a producer at the whim of Mother Nature is always one big crap shoot. This late in the season hopefully your canola is far enough along to yield something respectable.
Makes sense haha possibly also cause of the northern lights!
Wow can you say Holy Sh”t that pit is very full Great video as always
Sad to see your crops suffering from the really wacked out weather. thanks for a great video. See you on the next one, Jan.
Cheers
Just a thought here, instead of wasting all that rain water that falls off of the barn roof, maybe you should install a water catchment system two 30 thousand gallon water tanks is allot of back up water. When winter comes around disconnect the down spouts so you don't have to
deal with anything freezing.
Great job man . Always taking care of your cows 🐄 that's great man.
Great Video, Above everything else now you get a thunder storm with hail, thanks for sharing
If only that kind of rain would’ve come two months earlier 😂
Hope the hay some Atlantic Canadian Farmers have been able to ship west helps. I know it's tough in Alberta. T's & P's God Bless, Gods Speed.
Good video sorry about the hailstorm it’s always something
Hopefully your canola will turn out better than you think.
Great video mate ,just wondering ,you have said before you have a full time mechanic ,what does he do all day ,I know the big tractor is having its transmitted repaired but it's been out of service for a while ,so does he work around the farm and only fix things when they break down ,just interested that's all.Cheers from down under.
Very very thank you iyaan for thia wording on screen we are from india now getting you properly.....
The weather this year has been so crazy but the farmer way is next should be good
I thought you were going to fall in when you we’re dragging that hose.
The lagoon is perfect for fishing for molly monster mudder fish, Ha, Ha. I noticed there aren"t any no fishing signs yet.
Kip up the good work 👍
You're living the Californian Dream. 😀
You okay Jan? Hope for new vid soon!
pitter patter, lets get atter! :)
With the addition to the barns, are there plans to add on to the manure lagoon? If not does that mean you folks will have to empty it more often?
The farm where I help at; Cut ~ 160 acres of canola silage and it turned into a nightmare for mature only beef cattle feed, and they lost quite a few head of cattle and even by trying to use that canola silage minimally. Ended up writing off ~ 600 tons of that 2020 year canola silage by the end of this spring, and likely be spreading it like manure this fall after the crops are off. It's possible to use it for silage if in the right stage of growth, but be prepared for the accompanying headaches and cattle loss and smaller calves come springtime with similar losses and health issues for months afterwards.
Pitter-Patter... That is classic. Yo, Jan, you have an interesting streak of humor. Sad about the canola. This year farmers have not had a good season. You are not alone in your misery. That doesn't help, but it can only get worse = as predicted. The sky when you were taking the tak to the field (Fst Fwd) is beautiful. No hint of destruction.
have you guys ever considered putting a roof over the manure pit? I guess you get less rain out there compared to BC. Here many have roof over top to prevent the rain filling the pit too fast.
very nice video. Sorry about your crops last night
Hail means crop insurance coverage right? I have friends in Alberta who were hoping for hail because drought isn't covered!
Yeah, I'd like to know about that. I certainly hope that there's also government programs to help. Remember... no farmers, no food.
In northeast of Germany we had in the last three days 57 mm (2.2 ") rain; normal for the whole august.
Praying for your crop.
Hi bro very good job
Noticed that you haven't finished the fence yet around the manure lagoon.
Farmers in Canada and the MD west of the US have taking a beating on their crops this year. I feel so bad for all of you.
👍
I'm surprised you guys don't have a Nhun lagoon crawler for mixing the lagoon when you are using sand bedding.
I know sea gulls like garbage but had no idea they would crowd feed on a manure pit! How far do those birds come to feed there anyway? Also, does that make their 'crap' more toxic? Here in So CA sea gulls love to sit on the light poles in my parking lot for the Metro commuter train all day and crap all over any car parked under the light--even worse it seems they always targeted the windshield and driver's door handle. Those were always the last spots taken. Many times I had no choice because of an occasional late commute, but at least the light was on when I got back.
Do you always wait until the pits is just a few inches to overflow before pumping?
No, but construction and weather have pushed it back.
Looks like the manure pit could use a roof, be a bit expensive though.
Hauling water is expensive too
A roof over more of the outside corrals would be a much better investment.
Is it feasibly to install a system to collect biogas from the manure...and use it to generate electricity to power the farm or sell back to the grid ?
No.
1. Would have to invest a lot into building such a system.
2. The manure is more valuable as fertilizer for their fields than the small amount they would get for the generation. Electricity is cheaper than fertilizer.
👍👌🇨🇦❤, another Sask boy, me too
How much area do you have to pull sand from?
What happens when it is all depleted ?
Everthing ok, no new video....best greetings from germany
Beautiful dog! What's its name?
Oh no. It's been a rough year for farmers all over North America.
You might be able to mow the canola if you can not harvest it
It would be nice if yal can capture the gases coming from the cattle waste pit maybe use it to heat in winter time !!!
Keep on keeping onward ,,,the Lord will still bless as you give....
You installed all the posts on the lagoon but no fence yet. Is it going to be chain link?
Have you ever sent off samples of the sand from your field to see what's in it?
How did you irrigate your large Field's
Can you silage your canola?
A laser level is used to keep each end of a job site at the same grade.
what ever happened to the fence around the pit?
?, U guys need alot of water. If it's normally so dry, how do u supply the farm?. Hav a good nite guys 🌛
sorry for the challenges that have come your way!
Why is the big Case still broken?
I was wondering if you're going to have another video it's been a week because you were just starting to clean out the lagoon
We don't have any brake either (never had... was bought used). We haul this same 7900gls with the NH8870 (genesis versatile) or the TG285 (CNH same as your MX285). The 11y-o kid was hauling this just a few yrs ago. Seems like yesterday. He's 18 now, but the tank is totally worn out (lol)
The music is ooyy olympos @9:20
Maybe some new tires would help
Maybe you should introduce that dog some time. Even though you don’t seem to be a pet guy like your sister
Rip Canola
can you use the 4wd new holland on the manure tanker
Why don't you put a gutter system on your barn roofs and funnel it out to a 5,000 gallon water tank and then use the water for irrigation? We did that 60 years ago and it works great and is not at all expensive and you have water for cleaning in your barn, etc.?
How many litter milk a 1 cow give per day please bro?
Why wouldn't you use the big blue Ford articulater on that tank? Y do u only use that for planning?
At least your not just an arable farmer, I suppose that’s the benifits of being mixed
Was that Canola from last year always meant as a cash crop or were you just getting rid of it to clear bin storage space?
hes raising canola and peas for cash crops.
That 4 wheel drive tractor you use for seeding is that yours.
Yep
Why don’t you guys use the big ford new holland on the honey wagon? Just curious.
Do you have Crop Insurance or more likely you probably suffer the couple of bad years every 10 and make do on the savings n the cost of insurance.
I have frequently seen roofs built on the ground but fairly close to the building to be roofed. This roof appeared to be quite some distance from the building Would be nice to see footage of the lifting and placement. They probably would not want you using the drone unless it was a very long range filming. 🚜 🚜 🚜🐄🐄🐄🐄 🚜 🚜 🚜
Seagulls a nice way to describe flying rats.
Yeah brother one mans poop is another mans treasure
wow cant say ive seen ur lagoon that full and i thought i was full of shit but thats a whole another level lol
Why not put that on the liquid spreader.
How is your dairy farm called?
they built the roof for our new barn in place for the fact it was faster
