- What was supposed to be a test chopping day just to see what the corn was looking like turned into the first official day of chopping silage. We don't typically start for another 3-4 weeks so this is rare. I think the last time we chopped silage on July 4th was 2011 or 2012 and we were in a really bad drought that year. We do have more rain chances in the forecast so we'll see what that does as far as keeping us out of the field.
Buckle up and hold on tight for the next 2-3 weeks as we share the ups and downs of corn harvest. There will be breakdowns, it's just inevitable.
Great job driving the silage truck
Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video Mrs Milkman
ABSOLUTELY not boring! I miss working on the farm so much, the last tractor I drove was a Case IH 500 horsepower articulating, which was much different than the tractors I used to drive which were the 1586 international which were workhorses back in the day, I also remember grinding 6 ton of feed a week for the feeder calves with a 1066 or 766 IH, I'm sure your husband remembers those tractors?
Keep up the good work young lady, and again if I would have had a participant like you and life ventures I could have been much more successful and your husband is very very lucky to have you at his side!!!!!!!
Nice working ❤
Those wheel nuts are way over tightened on aluminum rims. That can cause the holes to crack around the stud hole.
Not sure who put those tires on (previous owner I guess), but yes, we agree, way over tightened.
The first Video of yours I watched was the one where you all were scouting the corn,, Back in the 70s & 80s in Orangeburg County, S,C, was the Major Dairy County.... Quite a few of the Bigger Dairys planted Forage Sorgum in with the corn in case of Dry weather... Most of the Silos were 30 x70 tower silos I worked for my brother in his Feed Handling and Milking equip business, (Patz,Clay,& De Laval) so I made a lot of Contacts with Dairymen in about 9 counties. Most of those Dairys no longer exist......
Buzz lightyear to star command, come in star command 😂😂😂.
Those lugs nut were way over tight. Keep up the good work guys.
What's the difference between a semi automatic transmission and an automatic transmission in a semi Truck?
a semi-automatic transmission uses a clutch to start, stop, & reverse then uses air shifters to shift through the gears automatically just like a standard semi. It doesn't have a torque converter in it like a regular automatic transmission.
are there any ears on that corn. here in western Ma corn just tasseling we will chop September
@chuckporter9564 In my video "corn prep is underway" we walk through the corn fields and show an upclose of how the corn looks and their lack of ears. We're at least 3 weeks ahead of schedule to be chopping but we've had no rain (until recently) and the corn is burning and the ears just didn't mature this year and we're at a point we just couldn't wait any longer for rain.
always problems on the farm
Y'all wanna sell that Farmall m?
@brandonwood1397 Yep, we sure will. The Allis-Chalmer, too.
