    The Montana Wheat & Barley Committee and Montana Pulse Crops Committee sponsored the production of a 25-minute documentary that takes viewers through the 2021 growing season from seeding to harvest across the Big Sky state.

    Great video! It was a rough year but Lord knows us Montanan’s will get passed this and come out better in 2022. 2021 is a year for the books we will never forget and tell stories of to future generations about for a long time.

    Riley, you did an absolute fantastic job putting this video together! As in the old CZcams days, 5 stars! 😉
    We were blessed here in the Midwest with good rains and bountiful harvest of corn, beans and potatoes. Hope for a better 2022!
    Take care & God Bless!

      I was over in Iowa in September and crops looked great over there! Hopefully 2022 brings the Northwest a lot of moisture.

    Another great video ! I hope this brings to light what all farmers face year after year . People have no idea how small a piece of the end product price a farmer really get's for his commodities they have worked so hard to produce .

    My goodness! What an amazing and well-made documentary! These are the stories that people need to see
    I teared up watching your "Along the Edge" trilogy, and this is just as beautiful and informative
    The view counter is missing a few digits though
    Keep up the great work

    A masterpiece! A beautiful documentary with stunning images. Congratulations!=) You should show the video at a film festival. Cannes is soon again, isn't it? =))

      He wasn’t home during all of that so I doubt we have any footage unless dad got some.

    As a fellow farmer from E. Wa I sympathize. We had hopes for this years crop. Great stand coming out of the winter and hopeful for the next 2 weeks of rain that never came. I harvested 90 bushel stubble with 40 bushel grain. P.S. You also have very commie vibes coming fro this video. I wish you'd show the poor farmers of the area and get their input. Not every farmer has new 5-10 year old equipment. Lots of guys are running 40-50+ year old conventional equipment. I know that doesn't make videos for the NYC/LA crowd, but seriously, show the real world concerns of average farmers. Glamorizing the top 10% of farmers doesn't show the reality of the average producer. I'll still keep watching your videos, just know that you're highlighting the exceptions and not the every-man type farmers.

    • @AgriStudios
      @AgriStudios  Před 2 lety

      Thanks for watching! Something I probably could have made more clear in the film is the diversity of different producer types featured. There's a vast range from the large operations that run brand new equipment to those who are just starting out with 40-year-old equipment and a lease on some land featured in the film, and all play a part in feeding the world!

    I realise he folds are huge but isn’t there any way of getting water to even part of the crop?

    Them farm's in the USA make the farms we have here in Ireland look like a garden and not a farm here in Ireland we do a lot of Beef farming and they are grass feed and you can tell when you eat Irish Beef how better it is to cattle that are not.

    @theandersons777 Před 2 lety

    What crops thrive in montana ? I'm looking to start a garden but not sure what is a good grower here

    • @Farmer_Matt
      @Farmer_Matt Před rokem +1

      Peas usually do well here. We have a short growing season so early maturity cool season plants work best.

    What is a pulse? That's a crop term I've never heard before.

    • @AgriStudios
      @AgriStudios  Před 2 lety

      Pulse crops dry yellow peas, lentils, and chickpeas. They're mostly exported overseas for human consumption but can also be used in pet foods and as ingredients for some meals here in North America.
