Your videos are very enjoyable to watch. Don't worry about it being repetitive. You are showing how farming really is. Keep the videos coming. All the best 🇬🇧.
Moin! From northern Germany 🇩🇪 I am not a farmer but grew up in the countryside and I am fascinated for tractors, combines etc since ever. I like your style of documenting your life on a farm from an outside perspective. And yes, farming is starting annually the new circle but every year is special and tasks are very repetitive for days or weeks but it is enjoyable listen to you describing perceptions. Stay healthy and enjoy your life!
Even though I've worked on farms as a teenager and helped out family on their farms as an adult, I still have a fascination with farming. Being on the land, milking cows, helping with calving, ... all these things are just so grounding and soothing to the soul. Between the sweat equity, the feeling of being part of feeding your neighbor, being a steward of the land, it all just gives such a soul satisfying sense of being a small part of something that matters so much more than so much of the white noise we're constantly surrounded with. It's so rewarding to those of us with 'dirt in our blood' to see someone with no farming experience fall in love with the farming lifestyle. Watching you cross another hurdle is a success for all of us. I live in southern Ontario, Canada and this area grows everything from alfalfa, barley, corn, canola, oats, soybeans, winter wheat as animal feed. Because we're surrounded by 3 of the Great Lakes, rain isn't an issue. Three weeks with no rain is cause for concern up here. A lot of the dairy farmers up here grow their own corn and harvest it as corn silage (where the whole plant is chopped fine, packed and sealed so it ferments without spoilage. Its harvested at 50 - 70 % moisture depending on how its stored). After fermentation it makes for a sweet, damp, high energy feed. Before I forget. Its October 5 and your subscriber count is at 85,600. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it. Whatever it is, your story is resonating with a lot of viewers.
Enjoy the content! I was raised on a small farm and worked for 2 brothers farming 2000 acres, I drove a semi hauling to elevators and would work 14-16 hour days so I sympathize with you being tired. Keep up the good work!!
Oh Zack, how hard it must be to keep it family friendly when your frustration level must be off the charts!!! Farmers have so much resiliance when get it done is your only option!! Grew up on a NE Nebraska farm and worked with farmers thru out the cornbelt as a consultant, supplier and marketer. Always in awe!!
Zack is pretty chill when it comes to stuff breaking but SOMETIMES when it’s just one thing after another, he can be known to throw a wrench across the shop 😂 and that’s okay because my boiling point is a LOT lower than his and I freak out over way smaller stuff. 😂😂😂
Retired railroader....used to haul train loads of corn in covered hoppers so kind of the heavy hauler of corn...kept us working this time of the year for sure. Enjoying getting to see where it all comes from and how it is grown and harvested. Been following Laura Farms for several years and just started following y'alls channel about four episodes ago. Interesting content as you learn your way around the industry. A little trivia for you... a grain (corn) train would consist of about 130 covered hoppers, each one weighing about a 130 tons...the empty car weighs about 30 tons, so each car carries 100 tons of corn...so 13,000 tons of corn on one train and we ran them by the dozens for about 3 months out of the year on the BNSF Railway to get the corn to market. Pretty mind boggling!
I was raised in West Tennessee. I practically grew up at local cotton gin where my dad and grandfather hauled cotton bales and seed into Memphis from our little town. I joined the Air Force in 1989 and still work for the Air Force as a civilian here in middle Georgia. Damn I miss that farm life. I know it’s not easy. Every year you pray for rain and good weather at the right times to maximize yield. Y’all work your butts off to make a living and I appreciate everything y’all do to keep us fed and survive. Love the content. Keep it up.
I grew up on a farm in California. We grew mostly wheat. All dry land. No irrigation. California taxes drove us out of business. I love seeing the farm life again. Thanks for the videos and keeping them clean. Glad to see that farms are thriving.
This is a fascinating video. It was not repetitive, and I learned a great deal. Farming is so different in different parts of the country. Your work ethic, your thirst for knowledge, and your cheerful way of explaining things makes every one of your videos really enjoyable. Thank you! And thank you to Zack.
High moisture corn. To feed all those beef cattle I would guess. I live in Wisconsin and we have a lot of dairy cows. Different dietary requirements. We do grow lots of corn and soy. Ethanol plants like dry corn. Shippers only like dry corn. Just for your information we can grow a large variety of crops. We have sandy soil that is irrigated. In some parts of the state. We are number 2 in cranberries. Potatoes, Sweet corn, cabbage for sour kraut and in the 60s when there was a canning factory, we did grow peas and sweet corn. Get this, on our farm we grew hemp for making rope during WW2. So, get ready augers are trouble no mater what purpose they serve on the farm. They wear out fast. Thanks for the interest in us northern states. Farmers are the backbone of country so stay strong and proud. Thanks for educating the public on farm life.
Not always. You can store it in a silo or treat it to preserve it. Those blue Harvestore silos were at one time built to store high moisture corn. @@swen6797
Be sure that the folding extension is shimmed down tight. Some have been having it disengage from the main part causing plugging. In Minnesota most areas deal with excess moisture. There are millions of miles of perforated pipe underground called drain tile that remove excess water from the soil. This was a summer when it was too dry and some areas have losses from drought. There is some irrigation mostly on sandy ground. Soybeans usually dry in the field. Corn sometimes does but farms have corn dryers with huge propane burners that dry the corn.After its combined its goes in the wet bin, and then is augered into the dryer and then transferred to the bins. This is running 24 hours a day usually. You combine untill the wet bin gets full usually that's enough to dry overnight. I use timed release caffeine pills.A cup of coffee equivalent goes a long way for me. You're such a sweet, genuine person and just bright spot in people's day when you put up a video. I knew this channel would take off. Here in MN soybean harvest is ramping up, some corn out, up in the Red River Valley edibles ( pinto,navy, black bean) are being harvested and 'pre pile' sugarbeet lifting is underway.Once the weather gets cooler they run 24/7 and build mountains of sugarbeets to be processed over winter.
I enjoy watching your videos. My grandpa had a dairy farm when I was a child and I loved hanging out there. Your videos remind me of those times and that makes me smile.
Awh these are my FAVORITE kinds of comments where people tell me that my videos remind them of a time they spent on a farm at some point or just my ridiculous antics remind them of themselves learning for the first time 😂 I love it! Thank you!
OK❤👍👍👍👍 don’t change a thing just keep being yourself keep all the videos coming. This is how people learn this is how I learn I’m a city boy from Cleveland Ohio. Enjoy watching your journey. You were meant to do what you’re doing.
Another great video. We’re in Virginia with a small Quarter Horse farm. We do raise our own hay and bail it. I’ve always been fascinated by the big farms and equipment and how it all works. You doing a excellent job on showing and explaining how it all works. Taking on your journey through the trials and tribulations of all aspects. Thanks so much. Take care Be safe.
Thank you so much! having a quarter horse farm must be so much hard work! Lots of things to do and working with animals probably has its ups and downs as well but probably SO rewarding right? I hope I do a good job at explaining things and breaking them down for people who aren’t like us and maybe live in a big city understand what’s going on! 😂 thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment it means a lot! ❤
I am a new subscriber and I do so enjoy your content. I like watching you learn. Your husband is really good with you and you all make a really good couple. The go pro is helping and I would say that drone footage would be a big plus. Thank you so much for sharing your work and life with us. Keep up the good work.!!!!
You popped up on my tickey tocky for you page over a year ago taking a ice bath talking about the grieving process..Now you're on CZcams making awesome Ag content. Congrats on the 78k and finding a happy fulfilling life!
Tough day out in the field but it happens. Here's hoping that is the worse day of harvesting this year. Keep the faith and thanks for another great video.
Thank you! Weve have some more issues with that thing but I think they finally have it fixed! I hope the rest of harvest runs okay! Thank you so much for watching
Great job of sharing the "real life" of farming and harvesting! You are sharing the true picture! It's not easy, peazey to help feed the world! Keep hanging in there! Feel blessed for the teaching that we get from the troubles in life. They're "ĹIFE LESSONS"! Give thanks in all things. GOD will not give you more than you can handle, with His help! ❤ 🙏🙏✝️🇺🇸
So I drive to Missouri about 3 times a year and I just learned those sprinkler's pivot in a circle. Now when you say a circle i kinda understand! I am no farmer but its cool to learn! 🚜
Having done wheat harvest for years like Zack, breakdowns will always happen . Better to happen at the start of the season than later on . Some days ahead it will all be flowing good . Hang in there it ain't that bad in comparison . Am glad you taking it naturally .... Great video and thanks for taking us along .
In the beginning when he would calmly tell me something was broke I would freak out and immediately he like IS THAT SAFE? HOWD THAT HAPPEN?!! lol and he would be just like like “yep it happens, it’s fine” so I’m learning that even though these huge machines having issues sounds terrifying, you can’t freak out😂
Great video today! Here in eastern KS we have been in drought conditions and most folks don't cut high moisture corn. Most of our corn is out. Beans mostly out and very little milo this year. Hope everything works out better and dry for the rest of harvest.
Oh okay you’re on the other side of us! I just recently learned that beans were a thing here in Kansas and I was shocked! I thought that was only an up north thing. With the recent hail storms and winds I got to see my very first field of them the other day and it was not a good first impression to say the least. Hopefully one day I’ll get to see what they look like in person
Far northwest Mn here! We got a great window of 2-3 days of hot dry weather and the bulk of soybeans are either off or coming off as we speak (Monday night). Corn has quite a ways to go yet but on most accounts looks to be a very good crop this year due to timely rains and nice growing weather. Enjoying your channel keep up the good work! Your an inspiration lady 😊👍🏻
Wow thank you so much! I am JUST now learning about soybeans lately and I heard all about their harvest time and how fast you have to get out there and pick them! And you can even stand next to them and hear them pop out of their pods? Is that true?
@@JojoSnow01 I don’t know about that but I do know if they are TOO dry, they start to shell out off the plant and tend to crack while being harvested so yes, there’s a window there for optimal results! Also, deer LOVE soybeans so in areas with a good population farmers tend to lose some yield every day they are still in the field due to the brown grocery shoppers😁! Hope all is well! Keep rockin your story!
I'm from Oregon and we deal with brakes just like that here .I love the channel you have .I do farming here too but I do the Irrigation for the farms I do it's fun but can be Hectic at times
Hello from the other side of Ks. I grew up on the farm but moved to the big city after high school. I was on a harvest crew in high school and went through Copeland and Syracuse. Love your videos, you are a breath of fresh air with all of the other toxic people around the world. Love you, Bye!😂
19:55 Well, here's the way I go through long harvest days without any caffeine: Get up at 5 or 6 a.m., have one or two cups of warm water or tea. Start working. Don't eat breakfast till 9 a.m. Have a small breakfast at 9 or 10 a.m. Don't eat lunch at all or only a very small meal at around noon or 1p.m. Don't eat big meals throughout the day, go for little distributed snacks instead. Choose easy to digest food. Avoid candy. Drink enough water. Stay in motion. Drive the tractor. You can go for 15 to 16 hrs. straight without any caffeine. Works really well for me. Be carefull out there!
Love the videos. It's always interesting day on the farm. Never know what's going to come your way but just have to figure it out on the go. Keep up the good work and good luck on your harvest.
Awh thank you! Yeah you just never know which way things are gonna go! I am still a control freak idk if that will ever change but I’m trying to learn to let go a little bit because I can’t plan everything 😢😂
Prayers for my Farmers . Do the Farmers almanac pitchfork picture wit your husband there YOU'S CUTE .. TALK ALL THE OTHER FARMERS FAMILIES INTO IT TOO WE WANT THAT PIC ! 23:34
Thanks for sharing the video Jordan. Glad y'all got it going and I hope you get done with the high moisture corn. I'm in Virginia and some guys around here do some high moisture corn but most is dry corn. Y'all stay safe.
So we are do east of you on the other side of Kansas in the SE part just 25 miles north of Oklahoma line and around here its mainly all dryland so not much high moisture corn ,usually start around 16% and it gets way too dry at around 12% by the time we are done ! Usually our corn plants prematurely die because of the heat and dry weather. Yields around her has been mainly 100-140 on upland and 140 - 210 in crick & river bottoms ! Just a few pivots and yields 200- 250 bu per acre
During situations like this, things get really scary. Covers come of, hands go places they would normally not go to manually clear clogs, etc. All these things lead to those times when things happen that should not and can change one’s life forever due to accidents. Be safe!!
Hi Jordan,, I’m in Minnesota farming ,, only 40 acres corn this season , I pick my corn and put it in cribs (3) round ones, grind it as needed, my other 100 acres was pasture hay small bales, don’t have cows , sell the corn and hay,,, great video😊, looking forward to seeing more 😎😎
Jojo I love your videos and your great explanations and how you are learning Zach is a good teacher yes its a big deal you two get back in operation and please have a great rest of day bolts break that is why other wise there would be major break downs and parts breaking all over
Yep. Welcome to farming with John Deere. Hurry up, break, parts wait, and fix it. Like the Larsons say, JUNK! lol! My 4 PM boost is always a Cherry Pepsi. Congratulations on 75 K subscribers, but make sure to take care of you first. Go to bed, and sleep/ You have work in the morning. Love you too! WB
Im new to your channel. CZcams recommended your Bently vs JohnDeere comedy and I Loved it!🥰 Been scoping your channel as it becomes recommended. I was gonna suggest a more in depth view of your operations, but went to your channel, and see you are doing it! Nice!!!👍btw, up North, we'd never cut corn when that green here! Grows differently there tho! Shorter plants! Thatd be nice! Less trash through the system... but idk! That moisture wrecks havoc on rotor
I hear you on that coffee deal try to use fruit throw a cooler in your tractor make up some fruit shakes it might work super for you it does for me PS great show look forward to seeing more shows😎👍👍👍💪🍓🍒🍏🍎🍌🍊🍍🍇
Nice video, I am sure you will be hitting 100K pretty quickly. Drone footage is cool. Do you follow any other farmer channels? I follow several and most have drones. Some come up with pretty cool editing effects. I think a drone could also be helpful checking pivots. I would probably worry about losing it in the corn haha But that's just me. 👍 cts
Running equipment is running it good smooth & steady. I kick back listen FM music run it at my own pace. Look on the brite side you got some beautiful sunrises & sunsets.
Congrats on the Subscribers!! Being in a tractor all day wears you. Even the clean, AC ones, just all the bumping around. Have you got the massaging seat?? :-) It's tough, but get the rest you need; tired and rushing causes accidents. Be sure you ALL take care of ALL of you!
He’s a very patient man and good at explaining. What part of Kansas are you from? I live in the northeast kansas and are corn is good this year. Beans are hit are hit and miss. Have a safe harvest
Terrible when things break !! Look on the bright side…….. Yer standing between a big green combine……. And the prettiest farm lady on the planet !! Just an ol cdn truck driver that saw your videos. Good luck with the shear bolts 🙂
Im sorta new to farming, been doing it all my life; in some form or fashion. But other jobs and just helped along the way. Now im coming back to help out cuz dad got ill; still, just sorta helping, but paying more attention to whats what. Grew up on the farm. But out of school became an electrician with my Uncle for 6yrs. Went to another company for 2+yrs. Was a fry cook for a year😂 (figured i skipped that life step! Lol!) Went into machining for 5yrs+. Loved all those jobs! (Except fry cook! Nightshift SnS, i was all cook&drive thru! Still NOPE!) BUT! Through it all, i always helped on farm. And then my dad got sick, so i quit machining and came to farm. (Easy choice, company was going under due to too many chiefs and not enough product)AND! My Pa told me when i was young, "See all this land?" "Yes sir, Pa." "Itll be yours one day if you wanna take care of it." "I love the woods Pa!" "Yes, i know you do!😊 but the fields and pastures need tending too. I hope you keep farming. Dont let it get subdivided." "I will, Pa! Ill take care of it! And i wont let that happen!" Thank God thats still my Heart! And thank God for good Neighbors with the same mindset! Our little township has some benevolent benefactors that buy up land before companies can get it! And they have Farm Hearted Souls!🤗 They rent ground out fair. Im just glad our community has farm in mind. Idk about their kids tho. Gotta snatch it up before its sold!
No day is ever the same. High moisture corn makes me glad we can't grow it here in Saskatchewan. Don't feel bad about breakdowns. I lost a whole day because of a blown fuse. But we're pretty much done now so it's all good.
Im not Minnesota, and we dont have the ability for irrigation where im at. (Hill farmer) our corn gets 12-13ft tall here. And we wait for it to dry down in the field...well, some of us do. THE BIGGER Operations around us (riverbottom ground) go early, and idk what troubles they have. But ours we let get to about 23%moisture if were lucky. Will stop harvest at 28%

Hello from the other side of Ks. I grew up on the farm but moved to the big city after high school. I was on a harvest crew in high school and went through Copeland and Syracuse. Love your videos, you are a breath of fresh air with all of the other toxic people around the world. Love you, Bye!😂
I'm from up State N.Y. I'm not a Farmer but I like watching your channel.
Im on long Island
Great farming video keep it fun and safe 👍
19:55 Well, here's the way I go through long harvest days without any caffeine:
Get up at 5 or 6 a.m., have one or two cups of warm water or tea. Start working. Don't eat breakfast till 9 a.m. Have a small breakfast at 9 or 10 a.m. Don't eat lunch at all or only a very small meal at around noon or 1p.m. Don't eat big meals throughout the day, go for little distributed snacks instead. Choose easy to digest food. Avoid candy. Drink enough water. Stay in motion. Drive the tractor. You can go for 15 to 16 hrs. straight without any caffeine. Works really well for me. Be carefull out there!
I’ve seen a couple other guys on you tube that have those x-9s having the same problem that your having with the unloading Alger
That’s so funny because I think Zack was watching those videos right after it happened! I’ll have to ask him
I grew up this way. Very beautiful older farm girl. Beautiful through the years
Love the videos. It's always interesting day on the farm. Never know what's going to come your way but just have to figure it out on the go. Keep up the good work and good luck on your harvest.
Awh thank you! Yeah you just never know which way things are gonna go! I am still a control freak idk if that will ever change but I’m trying to learn to let go a little bit because I can’t plan everything 😢😂
Great video JoJo and Zack
Молодец . Давно работаешь на технике.👍
Prayers for my Farmers .
Do the Farmers almanac pitchfork picture wit your husband there YOU'S CUTE ..
TALK ALL THE OTHER FARMERS FAMILIES INTO IT TOO WE WANT THAT PIC ! 23:34
Not a farmer but enjoy all of your videos. I watch you from Arizona. Be safe out there.
Thanks for sharing the video Jordan. Glad y'all got it going and I hope you get done with the high moisture corn. I'm in Virginia and some guys around here do some high moisture corn but most is dry corn. Y'all stay safe.
Get a drone yes, the footage of the tractors from the air would be awesome
In Minnesota they don't have irrigation and last year yields were very low. This year they don't seem much better.
Прекрасное видео, замечательная девушка!
So we are do east of you on the other side of Kansas in the SE part just 25 miles north of Oklahoma line and around here its mainly all dryland so not much high moisture corn ,usually start around 16% and it gets way too dry at around 12% by the time we are done ! Usually our corn plants prematurely die because of the heat and dry weather. Yields around her has been mainly 100-140 on upland and 140 - 210 in crick & river bottoms ! Just a few pivots and yields 200- 250 bu per acre
I love the way you're always willing to jump in and do what you're able!
During situations like this, things get really scary. Covers come of, hands go places they would normally not go to manually clear clogs, etc. All these things lead to those times when things happen that should not and can change one’s life forever due to accidents. Be safe!!
I’m glad u got the Combine going.
Hi Jordan,, I’m in Minnesota farming ,, only 40 acres corn this season , I pick my corn and put it in cribs (3) round ones, grind it as needed, my other 100 acres was pasture hay small bales, don’t have cows , sell the corn and hay,,, great video😊, looking forward to seeing more 😎😎
Nice to hear someone else besides me still picks ear corn and makes small square bales. I dairy farm about one hour north of Madison Wisconsin.
Awesome vlog ..time for a nap
Jojo I love your videos and your great explanations and how you are learning Zach is a good teacher yes its a big deal you two get back in operation and please have a great rest of day bolts break that is why other wise there would be major break downs and parts breaking all over
Yep. Welcome to farming with John Deere.
Hurry up, break, parts wait, and fix it.
Like the Larsons say, JUNK! lol!
My 4 PM boost is always a Cherry Pepsi.
Congratulations on 75 K subscribers, but make sure to take care of you first.
Go to bed, and sleep/ You have work in the morning.
Love you too!
WB
You rock girl!!! Zach too!! Love yall
Im new to your channel. CZcams recommended your Bently vs JohnDeere comedy and I Loved it!🥰 Been scoping your channel as it becomes recommended. I was gonna suggest a more in depth view of your operations, but went to your channel, and see you are doing it! Nice!!!👍btw, up North, we'd never cut corn when that green here! Grows differently there tho! Shorter plants! Thatd be nice! Less trash through the system... but idk! That moisture wrecks havoc on rotor
I hear you on that coffee deal try to use fruit throw a cooler in your tractor make up some fruit shakes it might work super for you it does for me PS great show look forward to seeing more shows😎👍👍👍💪🍓🍒🍏🍎🍌🍊🍍🍇
Great job driving the tractor and grain cart JoJo
Nice video, I am sure you will be hitting 100K pretty quickly. Drone footage is cool. Do you follow any other farmer channels? I follow several and most have drones. Some come up with pretty cool editing effects. I think a drone could also be helpful checking pivots. I would probably worry about losing it in the corn haha But that's just me. 👍

Me gusta que bien maneja el tractor con la tolva
Hi from Ontario Canada same thing we do here
Running equipment is running it good smooth & steady. I kick back listen FM music run it at my own pace. Look on the brite side you got some beautiful sunrises & sunsets.
decaffeinated tea could help keep you awake, It's kind of a natural Stimulate
Thanks God bless you
Congrats on the Subscribers!! Being in a tractor all day wears you. Even the clean, AC ones, just all the bumping around. Have you got the massaging seat?? :-) It's tough, but get the rest you need; tired and rushing causes accidents. Be sure you ALL take care of ALL of you!
The view at 10:36 is the best 😘
WOW, there’s a LOT to it!!!!! 👍 the drone footage if possible would be fantastic!!!!
He’s a very patient man and good at explaining. What part of Kansas are you from? I live in the northeast kansas and are corn is good this year. Beans are hit are hit and miss. Have a safe harvest
Your doing a good job 😋
Terrible when things break !!
Look on the bright side……..
Yer standing between a big green combine……. And the prettiest farm lady on the planet !!
Just an ol cdn truck driver that saw your videos. Good luck with the shear bolts 🙂
Busy day today, how does one say? All will turn out good in the end. Nice informative video. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Good plan on getting a drone. Work on farm in uk. Just finished sowing winter wheat. Busy spraying pre em on it against weeds.
Try “Celcious” drinks … all natural and clean.. I can’t handle caffeine either… Celsius…
I think it would be a great experience to hang out with you both during harvest to get a first hand experience of what its like. Maybe someday.
Nice videos, greetings from Finland.
Im sorta new to farming, been doing it all my life; in some form or fashion. But other jobs and just helped along the way. Now im coming back to help out cuz dad got ill; still, just sorta helping, but paying more attention to whats what. Grew up on the farm. But out of school became an electrician with my Uncle for 6yrs. Went to another company for 2+yrs. Was a fry cook for a year😂 (figured i skipped that life step! Lol!) Went into machining for 5yrs+. Loved all those jobs! (Except fry cook! Nightshift SnS, i was all cook&drive thru! Still NOPE!) BUT! Through it all, i always helped on farm. And then my dad got sick, so i quit machining and came to farm. (Easy choice, company was going under due to too many chiefs and not enough product)AND! My Pa told me when i was young, "See all this land?" "Yes sir, Pa." "Itll be yours one day if you wanna take care of it." "I love the woods Pa!" "Yes, i know you do!😊 but the fields and pastures need tending too. I hope you keep farming. Dont let it get subdivided." "I will, Pa! Ill take care of it! And i wont let that happen!" Thank God thats still my Heart! And thank God for good Neighbors with the same mindset! Our little township has some benevolent benefactors that buy up land before companies can get it! And they have Farm Hearted Souls!🤗 They rent ground out fair. Im just glad our community has farm in mind. Idk about their kids tho. Gotta snatch it up before its sold!
I think you're on to something about lowering them shields in the bin. That was a nice looking ear Of corn.
Lol what the first one or the second one? 😂
@Jojonico01 The first one was kind of cute but the last one Was beautiful.😁
Hey JoJo, how do farm crews party?
They turnip the beets!
(sorry, not sorry) 😉❤
Hello 👋 from Canada 🇨🇦
Yup, high moisture corn time. This is common problem w/wet corn.
Keep up your great videos. 👍
Thank you for sharing your story
I love you from algeria ❤❤
Hi, the Problem with the Bolt in the auger is the Same Problem as Mike mitchel with his x9. Greetings from Germany ❤
No day is ever the same. High moisture corn makes me glad we can't grow it here in Saskatchewan. Don't feel bad about breakdowns. I lost a whole day because of a blown fuse. But we're pretty much done now so it's all good.
those little bottles of 5 hour energy use to help me....☺ Drone footage is cool !!
Best regards from Linares Nuevo León Mexico
77.4k subscribers as of now. Drive footage would be cool
If you’re not making mistakes, that means you’re not doing anything! If you’re making mistakes, then you’re working!
Keep up the good work!
BTW... Love your videos!! 🙂🌽🚜
Great job young lady
Please go to bed early and sleep at least eight hours. Fatigue causes errors. Shifting into gear with high RPMs can tear up a transmission.
Great video today ! Good luck
What part of Kansas are you in? I was born and raised in Kansas, that's why I'm asking. Great videos, keep them coming.
Ela já descobriu que é linda, por isso está toda prá vida 🤣🤣
Im not Minnesota, and we dont have the ability for irrigation where im at. (Hill farmer) our corn gets 12-13ft tall here. And we wait for it to dry down in the field...well, some of us do. THE BIGGER Operations around us (riverbottom ground) go early, and idk what troubles they have. But ours we let get to about 23%moisture if were lucky. Will stop harvest at 28%
mad respect for that lifestyle from Chasn SC So much corn!!
بسیار عالی هستی و شجاع بهت افتخار میکنم هر جا که هستی اول سلامت باشی و بعد لبت خندان باشه 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥀🥀🌷🌷🪻🌷🥀🥀🥀🌷🌷🥀🌷🌷🪻🪻🌷🥀🥀🥀🥀🌷🌷🌷🌷🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🌷🌷🌷🪻🪻
Drone would be great thanks 👍
Farm life is not easy for sure, have a great harvest. They just did our land last week in Maryland
Ginseng tea might help you with the energy-boosting, that way you don't need caffeine just
I start morning harvest at 530 am and service equipment 600 am and harvest till 2 am when all trucks are full bins are full trailers full and dryers are running
Most of the farmers down here in south Texas plowed up their corn back and in may it was a total loss
AWESOME.
Just do it!!!
