      I'm a deere guy but in my opinion this video looks bad for deere and Co. They take the s780 away when he's only half done with harvest and they take the pro till copy away when he's not done with the field. When last year agco let him keep the challenger all harvest and CIH let welkers use that 50 series all harvest. Deere makes good products but I think corperate thinks they make better products than they actually do

    Not having farmed since 1965 it's taking a bit of research/study to bring my knowledge of modern farming practices up-to-date. Have you video'd the processes by which you incorporate GPS, etc into your field management? Using auto-steer, or whatever, your equipment appears to track within inches of the margins created by your previous passes. Really accurate and neat, not to mention the apparent straight alignment and symmetry of your field work. I'm impressed.

    So Deere just launched the 2680H, a high speed, shallow tillage disc tool with a roller behind it. In Europe we've had that type of machine for 20 years, the first one was the Väderstad Carrier. On the other hand in NA you can buy some of the most advanced planters, with loads of sensors and pneumatic or hydraulic auto-adjustment of row unit pressure, row cleaners etc. Some times I wonder how slowly technology spreads around the world, is it the farmers who are conservative to new technology and new brands of machinery or it's because the new innovations are patented by the companies who invent them?

    Nice piece of tillage equipment there - the effects make me think of the diamond harrows I've seen farmers use here in northern Alabama. While I'm not currently a farmer, as much as I've seen of farming throughout the US I'm forming the impression that no-till/herbicide farming only works well in the regions between the 35th and 40th parallels in the eastern US. Further north tillage seems to be needed to warm/dry the soil in the spring (after the snow melts off), and south of that light tillage seems used/needed to keep crop residue from washing away in winter rains. Then out west (particularly the southwest) it'd seem tillage would be occasionally needed to incorporate organic material into the ground so there's something in the ground that can actually absorb/hold moisture.
    Or in short different conditions require different methods. Something very well illustrated in how snow & ice are dealt with (or not) around the country.
    Just something I've observed and had driven home from growing up in central MN (St. Augusta/St. Cloud) and having been to almost all 50 states (living in three different ones). ...hope to eventually retire out of engineering and get back to the small scale farming/gardening that was a part of growing up -- especially since the more I learn the more farming makes engineering seem simple.

      @Mike Maes nothing is stopping you Mike from being creative with your 1/2 acre (like the original homesteader) with enough work and care with each generation it will be your offspring someday benefitting from the inheritance, nothing is given to these guys, I can assure you that they earn it, ZJ is a testament to that with this channel, just trying to make it better for the next generation (one good idea at a time, and A whole lot of sweat to get it DONE)

      @Mike Maes naw your just not getting it Mike, are you up at 4am to check bins, driers, worrying all day long about the weather coming in, harvest yields, Bank loan repayments, salary for staff, oh and running costs, if you are a 1/2 acre or 1000 worry is always there, and it's not fair to knock someone for keeping things clean and in good repair, I've seen 94 year old farmer on his knees picking up fistfuls of spilled grains to put back in the hopper, although his grandson was running tons through the yard on new equipment, that fistful of spilt grain more important than any of the tons running through that old man's yard on his grandsons "inherited" T9 (that's a new Holland we run blue over here) anyway I don't think you'll ever understand so I will just stop here, stay happy and try to see the good in people glat(good luck and thanks)

    There is an operator safety rule named , Three Points of Contact , which we should all follow when mounting or dismounting machinery. If anyone is unfamiliar with this concept, please google it . I realize it precludes the use of holding cameras but we can wait till the operator gets safely in position.

    I have always heard that a bail of cotton or round bail of hay catches fire it will burn inside for a long time.
    Several years ago I put out round bails of hay. I put hay hoops over the hay so the cows won't hook the hay
    with their horns and scatter it everywhere.
    It had been raining so the (run-a-round) where I put out the hay was pretty wet.
    It took the cows a week or so to eat what they wanted and left the rest a real mess. I pulled the hay hoops away from the round bails or what was left of them and used my front end loader to make about 3 piles of wet soggy hay along with cow poop and all of that and smoothed out the area and put out more fresh hay.
    I noticed some of the bad hay wasn't very wet so I decided to stick a match to it and burn it up. We did not have any burn bans in the country so the hay started burning and smoking like crazy. It odor was pretty bad.
    The cows had enough hay for a couple of weeks so I had to leave town on business. When I got back, the cows
    had finished the hay.
    They piles of bad hay I had set on fire a couple weeks ago didn't look like they had any more fire in them.
    I used the front end loader to stir up the burned mess. All of a sudden the smoldering fire inside those piles
    erupted into fire and the smoking mess was burning again.
    That's was when It was confirmed about a fire that could keep smoldering in a pile of wet hay could come back to life.

    Morning. New to the channel as well. My brother in laws and nephew do a lot of sorghum and beans. Directly after that they will run what they call a vertical till. Looks like a disk but not as aggressive of an angle on the front and rear sets of blades then pulled behind that is a rolling basket or harrow. Soil management is big in our area here on the Eastern Shore of Maryland with the Chesapeake Bay watershed. I really enjoy your work. Rick C.
