    Farmer on the Prairie is about my life on our central Illinois farm. My name is Seth and I am a young farmer with the desire to get things done and to keep the farm running smoothly. The farm is 740 row crop acres and 100 acres of pasture. We run about 100 grass-fed cattle and 1500 meat birds a year.
    Throughout my videos, you will get to know Dad, MommaD, and Sister. My brothers Josiah and Luke help us whenever there is a big project so they can feel important. We also have a part time employee Ben who is the comic relief. Because so many different things happen on our farm, there is never a dull moment.

      I was thinking the same thing LOL, I work at a cauliflower farm and we harvest all year long, whitch means we also have to get on the field when it is very wet sometimes. I don't have to tell you what our equipment looks like at the end of the year :-\

    Great job Seth, I’m glad to see you wax your equipment. It makes it easier to keep clean while protecting from uv and environmental pollution. I love watching your video’s especially you working in the shop! Stay safe and God bless you and your family! Tell sis I said hi 👋

    I’d put a conditioner/protectant on the tires too, as expensive as they are protect and make them last as long as possible!

    Very nice video you made there. I am a new subscribers. I live on a farm by Reward Saskatchewan Canada. I farm with my brothers and my Nephew. I have the tractor as you have. I like my Kubota tractor alot. My tractor is the same horsepower as yours. I have a front end loader on my tractor too

  • @sportsmanscustoms8873

    To take off grease, tube o towels works wonders, I wash off our equipment then wipe down the grease ball areas and it removes it with ease

    You guys should put rubber fender extensions over the rear tires.

    Believe it or not Seth, Dawn dishwashing detergent is unbelievably effective on grease.

    • @farmerontheprairie
      @farmerontheprairie  Před 4 lety +3

      So is a hot water pressure washer, but it often leaves behind residue and if you use to much pressure you will take the paint off. I prefer to just avoid the problem by taking the loader off.

    Do you still have the Kubota tractor and I haven’t seen any new videos. I love your videos.

  • @milkweed7678
    @milkweed7678 Před 4 lety

    I'm a new subscriber. When did you get this tractor? Looks really good for 300 hours use a year. What is the other tractor outside at the corner of the barn at the first of the video? You can see it when you take the loader off. I'm from central IN. Great videos. Looking forward to the outside spring work coming soon and watching you putting the crops out this spring. Thanks for sharing!

    • @farmerontheprairie
      @farmerontheprairie  Před 4 lety

      We bought it in 2017. The other tractor belongs to the township and my dad pushes snow in a nearby town with it.

    Aloha from Portugal, Europe's west coast! I'm a recent farmer with 40ha of olive trees owning a Kubota 5111 and, being an amateur, really liked your "no brainer" video, but have a few questions:
    1. Do you have any special attention not to get the pressured water near electric cables or hydraulics?
    2. What recurrence you apply grease in the zerks? for example, if you have different timings for greasing the link, arms, etc. what are they?
    3. Did you apply the same wax on the windows?
    Thanks for your support and keep on the good work,
    Nuno

    • @farmerontheprairie
      @farmerontheprairie  Před 3 lety +1

      I usually grease everything every 50 hrs. Yes, I waxed the windows and the electronics are fine as long as you don’t blast straight at them.

      In a couple of weeks will assembly the loader and frontal PTO in the Kubota and believe yours have it, what kind of extras you connect at the same time?

    awesome videos!!, I cant say I have ever waxed a tractor before but the kubota looks good, have you ever tried ceramic wax? and if so how were the results for keeping it clean ?

      Yes, but I haven't been doing it long enough to have a definite answer.

    @markybear92840 Před 4 lety

    I know i'm a city dweller, and it may be perfectly reasonable for the tractor to have this, "option", but does the tractor have a tilt steering wheel? Oh, and what do you charge for wash a 2013 Avalanche?! :-) Great job Seth!

    • @farmerontheprairie
      @farmerontheprairie  Před 4 lety

      Yes, all cab tractors have a tilt steering wheel because it would be impossible to get in and out of the seat if they didn't have one.

  • @ukulelefatman
    @ukulelefatman Před 4 lety

    Check out "collinite 845 insulator wax" on Amazon. You only have to wax once or twice a year with this stuff. Thousands of 5 star reviews. American made, used on aircraft and boats as well as farm equipment. I discovered it twenty years ago, and have never used anything else since. (I don't have any affiliation with the company, just a fan )
