    We also use Field View and it's a great tool. And I do agree that it's an expensive rain gague. But the data you collect from it is very valuable. Keep up the good work and stay safe up there.

  • @nezrom9864
    @nezrom9864 Před 7 lety +2

    Wow, I am not a farmer but I grew up around farms and always had some interest in farming and was totally blown away by the information in your video and the quality of your presentation on top of doing it while planting corn.

  • @TeezleySPT
    @TeezleySPT Před 7 lety +5

    Really like these videos of you explaining these new technologies. We farm 1500 acres of row crop and are just getting into this new tech. Would love to get field view eventually

  • @robertgorsett434
    @robertgorsett434 Před 7 lety +2

    You are really good at explaining things. I wish you had more videos as you obviously are very educated, educated in the farming business as well.
    MY family and I own land on South Dakota, but you and your tech has not trickled completely down to our rentors and this is where I want them to move to as we have a lot of the same ground as you all do.
    Keep it up.

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +1

      Robert Gorsett Thank you! Keep in mind, the new technology isn't always cheap, and it doesn't always have a positive return. In my opinion though, FieldView has the potential to show a solid return in the near future.

  • @57fitter
    @57fitter Před 7 lety +3

    No, Nathan, it's not going very well here in N Indiana. Rain has just kept coming . April corn is all that's been planted. Looks like a window is about to open this weekend, though. Informative video, Thanks. 57

    @TwoHappyChildrenFarm Před 7 lety +2

    Amazing video. Loved the shot showing 39 acres/hour. That's about a full day for me here. We have high CEC soil here, I think sidedress pays when you get too much rain before v8 stage on the heavy soil. It's paid big time here the last two years, this year probably not so much. Roll the dice.

  • @farmermatt629
    @farmermatt629 Před 7 lety +2

    I agree with you on the cec nitrogen analogy... I also farm heavy soil high cec and fall applied n is always top yielding... I don't see benefits to putting on n 3 times thru the year.... some farms maybe it's beneficial but our soils I'm not convinced... I do put on 5 gal of 28 on with corn chemicals after planting... and I figure that into fall anhydrous ammonia

  • @howardyounger5456
    @howardyounger5456 Před 7 lety +1

    that was a lot of interesting information. about 20 years ago a old farmer started telling this kind of stuff was coming. the varible rates and so on it is even more then he was saying amazing stuff to help feed the world and to not waist. great video that equipment is amazing also. 400 acre field that was more then my dad farmed.

  • @cmpphilip

    At 7:14 - 7:15 in you needed to put a pin in the map for a rock, the far right planter wheel jump of the ground when it hit something. As always enjoyed watching your videos. Amazing how much more I notice the second time I watch a video.

    Have you thought of having a weather base station in your yard that can be used to help FieldView? I don't know if that would help, but maybe it would give you a forecast right where you need it? Just a thought. Great videos by the way!

    Zack, You obviously need rest during the year but it appears to me that if you have time during the winter when you might have time, is to be an Ag Teacher on some level at any one of the Ag Colleges or University such as Minn. Just a thought. Jim

  • @adrianklaver113
    @adrianklaver113 Před 6 lety

    Fascinating technology. Viewing this raised a question that some of your other videos also brought to mind, is land leveling an option? I am talking using dirt buckets and land planes to knock the ridges down into the valleys and dialing in a grade over a field. Seems it would eliminate quite a bit of the variability in production.

    Like the video- you did a better job selling FieldView than the rep at my last coop day!! Do you use climate pro also. We still put our markers down while auto tracking must be a lack of faith!!

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +1

      Allen Yule Yes, I use the pro version. Sometimes I don't even use the markers on the end rows anymore, but I don't always get the adaptive curve driving to work correctly!

    When you come to part of field that only has a strip like a triangle, I remember you said the planter won’t seed where it seeded, how do you seed that, do you double seed it, to seed it?

  • @Farmable
    @Farmable Před 7 lety

    This is cool. Are you familiar with MyJohnDeere? It doesn't look like it syncs with myjohndeere but it would be sweet if it did. It looks like it does similar things as myjohndeere with the yield maps and populations that just does it in real-time.

  • @barrychouinard4019
    @barrychouinard4019 Před 7 lety

    Thanks for the educational vid. Question - I believe in an earlier video you said you banded fertilizer to be right on the row that you would plant later. If I understood that right, is that an approach that works with 30 in rows but would have less benefit with 20 in rows? Or would the benefit be comparable in both? Thanks for taking the time to explain the considerations in your decision making process.

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +2

      Barry Chouinard It would be a benefit to 20" rows as well. You could either have the fertilizer banded in 20" spacings or else go even more narrow with the bands and band it at an angle. If the band's are relatively close together, the seed doesn't need to be placed directly over it. Our local co-op used to band thousands of acres for guys. The bander was on 15" spacings and they did it at an angle. That way it worked no matter what the customers spacing was.

  • @epicteto14
    @epicteto14 Před 5 lety +1

    how much fieldview improved from this video to now? is it worth it? im thinking about getting it for my farm here in brazil, price is about 1 dollar/acre/year

  • @illinoissandfarmer4726
    @illinoissandfarmer4726 Před 7 lety +3

    I never thought of it tell now but I wonder why Deere doesn't use satellite maps. That would be really neat. You just need all LEDs on that tractor like we have on our 8320R they are stupid bright. Is the soil types on that climate view from old data or is it new that you have uploaded on there.

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +1

      Josh Fanter Climate already has soil type data so toy don't need to load that into the system, but I wrote the map from precious harvest data and didn't consider soil type at all.

  • @Farmerjon9660
    @Farmerjon9660 Před 7 lety +1

    How would you think this could be implemented into a small operation like ours? How Would I get started using something like this in our fields??

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +2

      Farmerjon9660 If you have equipment that is already capable of recording data, just talk to your local seed dealer, most likely they can happily get you set up. The company is owned by Monsanto, so I believe any of the seed company dealers can get you started, or at least know who to contact about it.

    • @Farmerjon9660
      @Farmerjon9660 Před 7 lety +2

      MN Millennial Farmer Oh. First problem there is the equipment. LOL. Planting with a 6 row planter and a 4455 tractor prolly wouldn't fir then. Lol

  • @steveminecraft219
    @steveminecraft219 Před 7 lety +1

    We just use the 2630 display. It seems like it would be something that would be very useful depending on your operation. Also do you have the itec set up for the tractors or do you have to manually drive the turns all of the time?

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +1

      Steve Minecraft The tractor has itec but I have never bothered with it. Some day I will...

    • @steveminecraft219
      @steveminecraft219 Před 7 lety +2

      +MN Millennial Farmer I gotcha. We have it on our 8335R for planting so that's nice to have sometimes. Great job by the way 👍

  • @morganschilling4007
    @morganschilling4007 Před 6 lety

    I have seen your videos utilize FieldView a lot and it has me interested in investing in it for our operation. I have a few questions that maybe you could address. As far as soil types, do you put in that information yourself or does FieldView pull that data from somewhere else? Also, do you know if you can use the app at the same time on two different devices? We run two different planters at the same time for beans and corn but it would be nice to use the app for both. Speaking of both planters, the bean planter is an older model JD with an old monitor that I don't believe would be compatible with FieldView, do you think you can still use the app while planting and input some of your numbers such as target population, etc.? As far as the field health maps and scouting maps, does FieldView capture those pictures and that data and automatically input it into your account? The scouting maps interest me but I'm confused how they capture that information. You mention going back and looking at the field map of that big field that got hailed before you had FieldView, once you set up an account do they provide you with field photos from the years before you were a member? One last question if you don't mean answering, what is the annual cost of the app and do you find it "cost effective"? Sorry for all of the questions, I am just having a hard time understanding how it all works. Appreciate your time!

  • @tylerarters6644
    @tylerarters6644 Před 7 lety +1

    Do you have issues keeping it charged? I have my iPad Air running field view with a car charger and it won't keep up in our 8285r

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +2

      Tyler Arters It definitely burns battery but usually when I plug it in it will slowly charge as it's in use. I bought this ipad a year ago and I don't use it a lot so maybe that helps?

    • @tylerarters6644
      @tylerarters6644 Před 7 lety +2

      MN Millennial Farmer , That could be the reason. It's only a year old as well. I have been putting it to sleep so it will stay charged otherwise it dies even being on charge. It's my first year running it as well, it's a little to get used to but all in all it really is a much nicer map to watch

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +1

      Tyler Arters Yeah it's a clean system to work with for sure. I have a buddy who has to start at 100% in the morning and keep it charging all day and by quitting time he said it's usually under 10%. Maybe I'm just lucky!

    • @deancook6832
      @deancook6832 Před 6 lety +1

      Your charger is not supplying sufficient power. Many cheapo car chargers only supply 1 amp. An iPad requires 2.4 amps to charge.

      @jhlane1977 Před 5 lety

    is the fieldview made by john deere ? and is it compatible with other companies like trimble, topcon, agleader etc ?

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety +1

      Pierre Perrin It's made by Climate Corporation, which is owned by Monsanto. So it's not a Deere product but they have agreements in place with each other. I believe it is compatible with the other popular data devices that you mentioned.

    @norWISequipment Před 7 lety

    What factors come into play when writing a variable rate map? From a none farmer

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety

      norWISequipment We can base the variable rate populations on whatever data we want to. The short answer here is: previous yield data. There are softwares available which allow "layering" data, which means it can come up with a sort of algorithm for the field depending on several factors such as previous yield history, soil pH levels, soil types, nutrient holding ability, elevation, etc.... However, we feel that so far the best 'bang for our buck' has been just using previous yield maps to locate good spots and poor spots throughout the fields and adjusting those areas based on that. I strongly believe that the farmer themselves do a better job of writing the variable rate map, because nobody knows better as to why those areas are poor or not. Of course, that requires the farmer to make the initial investment (money and time) before they're able to do it. In my opinion, FieldView is the easiest and cheapest software for that at this time. Sorry if I rambled too long!

    • @norWISequipment
      @norWISequipment Před 7 lety

      MN Millennial Farmer so basically In a very basic form. Plant more in higher yielding areas and vice versa?

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety

      norWISequipment Correct! Certain areas of the field are capable of supporting more plants, so we plant more there. In the areas where the soil doesn't support a lot of nutrients, we plant less plants and save money on seed. Some will say that the yield will actually increase in the poor areas also because there isn't as many plants fighting for the small amount of nutrients available. We haven't personally tested that, but it's a theory.

    • @norWISequipment
      @norWISequipment Před 7 lety

      MN Millennial Farmer so is it kind of the opposite for fertilizer? Is that veritable rate as well?

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  Před 7 lety

      norWISequipment Not necessarily. We do variable-rate most of our fertilizer, but often times the poor areas are sandy spots that won't hold extra nutrients anyway. The last thing anyone wants is for nutrients to leach through the soil and into the water system, on top of that, it's expensive for us to lose those nutrients. So, we usually fertilize those spots even less. If the area is good soil but the reason it doesn't produce well is because of a lack of nutrients, then we will put more fertilizer in those spots. Hopefully that makes sense...
