    Hi Mike. Glad you were able to catch some of what we do here in Ontario. as farmers we are just as important to feeding the world as the US or any other country. I am glad that you are able to film and show this off. I farm in eastern Ontario about 5 hours East of these guys certainly not on that scale but still a part of providing and giving back.

This is the first time I've truly appreciated the efficiency of the design of the more emphatically rectangular conical designs of the grain carts for fast in and fast out handling of the grain.

    • @LeFloop
      @LeFloop Před 5 lety +1

      Not a lot of dealer support up here unfortunately, and apart from the real big time operators you don't see many sub 1000acre farms needing anything over 250horse. Therefore a lot less demand for versatile tractors. I'm pretty interested in them, I think it's a good product, but our biggest tractor is only 200hp and again Hyde being our closest versatile dealer is 40 minutes away where we are only a few blocks from our nearest agco dealer. So really they have nothing that meets our needs.

      I’m from just outside Ottawa Ontario and there are a few versatile tractors in my area... also we had a 276 Vesatile
      BiDirectional on our family BEST loader tractor we have ever had. We had a 500 head beef herd at one point and were making 6x6.5 foot round bales that would weight anywhere from 2000- 2200 pounds which needed a gound heavy loader tractor. I also would use it on a large snowblower at the Ottawa International airport in the winter loved it for that with snow blower in front of you👍

    We've dealt with Hyde brothers a few times for implements and wagons, we're about 40 minutes north of Hensall. Good guys, they've always been good to work with. No versatile on our farm though, maybe if they built smaller tractors haha. Ontario is mainly row crop but you'll still see a lot of wheat because there's a good bit of livestock here, so it's good for rotation and the straw has a bit of value, and again for getting manure out in the summer.

    Quite a pile of corn to keep away from the combines. Seemed different seeing 20 inch rows. Fifty years ago when I was a student worker at OSU Farm Science Review we had comparison plots with 20, 30, and 38 inch rows. Over the years yield advantage for anything narrower than 30 inches was marginal in our growing region.

I have found Americans to be friendly and hospitable every time I visit. It's amazing how people just across the border think here in Canada we live in igloos when they are even an hour south of the border. Small minded folks that can't see past their nose. Typical American behaviour. We have the same with 4 seasons like most of the northers states.

    "Everyone thinks they live in igloos" story of my life. Have all kinds of cottagers boats i work on that are from the USA and they tell me the same thing. It really is not much different here.

    I gather there's a few semi grain trucks to keep the grain carts and the combines going,Should look at getting a 5000 bushel mother bin. its like a over sized grain carts to give the grain carts something to empty out in while the trucks are gone a trucks can just keep coming there to get more grain. Last time I asked about 1 they're between $100,000 and $200,000. I gather these guys got a lot of land and I'm not going to ask how much not my business but nice harvesting crew.
