Appreciate the thoughts Mike! Also sorry to see poor yields on your end too. Definitely need to get together when the boarder opens up!
đ Absolutely!
They don't need to open up that border it's bad enough that the southern border is wide freaking open
@@Trump751 - Spoken like a true ignoramus!
Isn't the border open? I go across regularly
@@googleuser4009 Have to be vaxxed i guess?
We need a Tony Fast, Welkers and Mike Michell Collaboration.
Absolutely
Only downside would be the barrage of anti-John Deere insults from Fast and Welkers.
@@hybridssuck what about the Minnesota millenial CZcams who likes Deere to give some balance.
@@hybridssuck Mikes said that he likes Case just as much as Deere as well. Itâs just in his area trade in and customer service leans towards JD.
@@Bdigital9482 Whats funny is that until recently he was all case and white tractors itâs just now that everything green due to a great dealer.
I appreciate you showing yourself activating the safety locks. The list of families I know that lost a loved one to a head dropping is too large. Stay safe.
I wod love too see that video you, Tony, and Nice together talking farming..đ
Excellent video. Perfect mix of commentary, information, and even some quiet time to just watch and listen to that sweet X9 do itâs thing.
Thanks!

Rented a Gleaner s77 one fall. They have a ladder right beside the cab so u can look in the tank.
Here in southwestern North Dakota we've been having a good year for us, durum is yelding 80 to 85 bushel to the acre and barley 90 to 100 bushel to the acre compared to last year where we were getting poor yield due the extreme drought
I do appreciate the Welkers content as well as yours and Tony Fast. If you guys could meet up at next years farm progress show in Decatur IL I would totally be there. Went last year but worked the night before, met Tim Marks but missed the Welkers, Cole and whistlindiesel. I was too tired to stick around long and think some of them caught the Rona.
Morning Mike, finished up pulses last night, so nice to be done those things. Lol
We grew yellow mustard, never have grown it before. Run 780s might need a little help with the settings.
Sorry to see your crops arenât doing the best.
Best brown mustard crop we ever had in the Macklin area was over 35 bushels/acre, 1 year. Long time ago, even before we had fancy air seeders! Straw got so long in low spots, though. Remember swathing dam stuff cause it wouldnt ripen. Some of it would grow 10-12 ft tall and lodge down to about 3 1/2 ft tall. Make big mess if not careful.
I'm enjoying your posts Mike. Thanks for the border footage I always wondered what it would be like way out in the open spaces between Canada and the US.
Definitely need Mike and the Montana boys to meet and chat
Fun fact, gleaner has a ladder by the cab that you can swing out to get to the grain bin.
Thanks for the entertainment Mike and I never knew brown mustard was well...brown
Letting the door auto close is priceless for guys that hate slamming doors of all kinds!!!đđđ
I loved cutting soybeans and remember always having to adjust the reel height and ground speed on the fly and by the seat of your pants depending on the crop conditions. Love watching your videos! There is one thing that I see on that JD I do not like and thatâs the header safety lock, if the machine has a catastrophic hydraulic failure that header is coming done.
It is a check valve system that closes without oil, but I hear you I would add a stop if I was going to be under it.
I am guessing that it uses the same hydraulic safeties that a crane would use, where the cylinder can't move unless there is pressure applied to it, and that valve prevents pressure being applied to it.
And the safety lock valves are always hard pipe plumbed to the cylinder so hose failure has no effect.
Anything short of a catastrophic cylinder failure would at worst cause it to leak down slowly, and with multiple lift cylinders you have redundancy.
In addition they know that most farmers won't go to the work of installing a cylinder stop anyway, so adding fail safe hydraulics actually makes it much safer for the average farmer! Lol
appreciate your positivity mike, cannot be fun pulling that light load off the land. it stands out that you can take the long view
Mike , thanks for the education on the border , it would be nice not to play The border game and just to be able to cross back and forth no questions asked . Besides watching you I also watch the welkers and Tony fast . All three of you guys are great and I hope the outcome of fall harvest is all good .
well we Americans have to ensure everyone is not smuggling in anything from Canada or Mexico, the same thing applies for us Americans going to Canada and Mexico.
@@nikerailfanningttm9046 This is BS...
Awesome video thanks for sharing â€ïž
That whole border thing is just so fascinating to me. Some borders are guarded 24/7 with armed guards and razor wire,and others are just WIDE FREAKING OPEN! That actually gives me a warm feeling. This is what it looks like when two nations who are very much the same share a border. This doesnât look bad to me;this looks good!
The borders between most European countries are even way easier to cross, those borders don't even have border controls.. You only notice it by seeing the country sign and max speed along the road
@@tjakko4659 : The Schengen countries are an interesting datapoint. In overall scale and operation, it's more akin to the free movement between states in the US. I'm of the mindset that a similar arrangement could be made between the US and Canada due to our generally common values and interests but there are too many "OMG THE IMMIGRANTS" people that'll prevent that from happening.
@Burt - I see Burt from the internet brain trust has shown up! Iâll be waiting on your report detailing how the constitution has any relevance to this matter.
Grew up on the Montana border as well was on the fire dept and in the case of fires there free movement between borders and our American neighbours would call us for help often
Thank you for showing us the border again Mike! #harvest2022
Hi Mike I can see in your hands that you are a great farmer how is not scared of work. Like your channel keep it up.
When you're in or near a high security zone it is always best to act with the presumption that you are always being watched and listened to *especially* if it seems like you couldn't possibly be observed.
Thanks for the "leg" protein in my mustard BTW. Nothing wrong with some insect parts as long as they've been through the cooking kettle. I only worry about insect inclusions that get in *after* packaging of my food.
in todays world you can NOT OPT OUT OF BEEING ON SENSORS OR VIDEO..... ;) sooo just live your life like you ARE BEEING WATCHED and just DO GOOD STUFF and not the bad stuff lol hahah
@@alexmikhael5061 Pretty much.
I have taken selfies at both ends of i5, leaning on the 20 foot tall Mexico border fence, and the slightly less imposing 2 foot tall split rail fence between the US and Canada!
But yes, I made sure I did nothing suspicious, stayed in plain sight, stayed away from everyone else, and kept my hands out of my pockets, because I knew I was being watched closely lol
@@ke6gwf Cool.
I like the sample door on the old Gleaners it fills up slowly via a small bit of c channel that run up under the bin auger and it takes little bits as you going so you sample is a good average of whats in the bin.
The older John Deeres had that tray. We had one the top bolt fell out and the tray ended up wrapped around the bottom of the unload auger. Fortunately the tank was 3/4 empty when it stopped unloading and I was able to eventually get it out of there after working on it upside down in the grain for about 20 minutes.
Here in the South (Georgia) our tea is sweet tea also.
having you and tony and nick talk would be great
Good luck combining your 2022 crops Mike
I use the sample door as the ladder. Granted Iâm still using a JD9400
Hey Mike great video. I donât know why they would say anything about you guys crossing the border. They sure are letting anyone cross the southern borders. Watch about jumping off the cabs those knees will really hurt in a few more years. Stay safe and thanks for letting us ride around with you.
Another great video Mike! Horrible to see another year of rubbish crops for you but good to listen to you explaining everything and seeing the new machines.
I always enjoy your comments. Thank you for taking the time to share your videos. Iâm sure Your son will be sharing the cab with you. đ€đ
Great video Mike
Have cattle customers in Montana they have to cross occasionally to get fence crawlers back most just cross and get it done. Usually as you say patrol shows up before process us complete
Ah, the good oâl days. Spent allot of time unplugging the feeder house back before the reverserâs. 7700âs, 8820âs. I believe the 9600âs had reverserâs if I remember correctly? Beautiful machine you have. Excited to see the X9 in operation on the good crop up North
Yes the 9600 had reversers, I've choked a 9600 or three with rice
they should make the sample door a sample step as well.
then you can either use it to take a sample or step onto the roof.
Sweet tea I've found is more common in the Southern United States. I'm from Texas where just about everywhere asks "You want sweet or unsweet?" go far enough north and they just bring you sugar packets if you want it sweet.
Im glad I'm not the only one that doesn't use the sample door much... that cab ladder would be a nice addon.
Speaking of safety stuff... that rotational horn would get smashed in đ
I always enjoy Mike. So sorry to see the poor crop. That always sucks @$$. Praying for good weather and bumper crops in the head future
Crazy how those machines take in so much product and removes all those little seeds.
Crazy how the principle has been the same since late 1700s
Great awesome video mike, hail damage is the worst . Feel bad for nick , I would like to see all you together in a video, Brian , nick , tony , and mike get together
Pre onboard moisture sensor days sample doors were used daily.
People that have pasture along there tell abut cattle getting on wrong side and suppose to check with border patrol but usually just drive over to get them back. And your right they do show up very soon. Loaded cattle right near border many different places one was very close to an observation tower
Very true with the sample door
Hey Mike sorry about your yields I hope you have crop insurance, worst is the price they charge us for insurance. Here in Ontario we've had a drought also not as bad as you guys. We just took off our second cut which should of been our third and it was very thin. Let's hope for moisture this winter and next year it has to get better. Stay safe
You need to yell " Power Door " when you shut the cab door.
Hello from Northern Wisconsin.
I like your explanation around the brown mustard though.đ
Sweet tea all day long!!
God Bless you Brother Mike! đ Youâre correct. They are doing poorly in Montana but itâs all about the attitude just like you Brother they are working on the ol 5 years plan!
My Father has a huge (for Western Washington) Ranch in Sumas Washington State. We have a huge Field (like just one of yours) and Canada is our Northern Property line. đ§ We used to rent the whole thing out for years before my Dad retired and moved there. One of the Tenants đ thought they would be just fine throwing duffel bags full of money across and catch the duffel bags of weed they were smuggling! This was a long long time before weed became legal here in Washington. They did a huge DEA investigation and they almost cost us our Ranch we had to prove it was renters not us. đ€Šđ»ââïž After everything my Dad had to pay thousands for Lawyers and Legal fees! We never rented it out again.
Dad retired from Pharmacy work and he has it for a âHobby Ranchâ â€ïžđđșđžđđŒ
very interesting Mike
Can be a small rock wedge in there also to stop that center canvas
Only sweet tea for sure in Wisconsin
I would like to see one of those cameras or listening devices. Thank you for the videos and good luck with harvest
what are u smokin farmer......brown mustard is a good crop, and thanx for sharing your life.
I live here in north Carolina and down here our tea must have sugar and the colder the better
I like Montana iced tea very well. My favourite drink on a hot day. Second best is hot black tea.
Well, I guess we won't be able to step over the border when we visit Alberta đ We definitely need a Welker/Fast Ag/Mike collaboration at an ag show or something. Too bad you can't do it in October - we would rearrange our holiday (coming over from Down Under) to be there!
I live northeast corner of Montana not far from. The Canada us border. The grasshoppers cleaned out everything here to.
Thanks
My god it could take 2000 acres to fill a bin
Thatâs why they got like 50k acres haha
Ok - keep on trucking
A small bin at that..
Sweet tea is the only tea.
Mikes dad jokes, never gets oldđ€Ł
Hes earned it
Sweet tea only!
At the end of harvest, make whoever is at the bottom of the stuck list eat a spoonful of straight mustard seed(assuming it's safe to eat like that). Stuck List mid season check.
I've heard that as long as you are invited by the neighbor and no money exchanges hands you CAN cross the border for farming purposes but that your insurance may take issue. Driving for a broken leg or whatnot. Covered under the treaties.
John Deere Case IH whatever make combines for corn and beans. You have to improvise in other crops to get clean samples beginning with filler plates and filler plates and in your case you can't really set combine good in poor conditions need to run the machine full. As you well know
Being one who has run them all through the years Massey was the dominant machine till they sold out. Deere and Case IH were not even in the picture hardly in custom operater Deere and Case took over in later years. Ran about every model in them up to the 9750 in all the current machines I can take the old 7720 and beat anything in samples along with 760 Massey. But in my experience over the years the Class has them all beat in capacity. Even your new John Deere models. You have to pick a machine that you get the best service out of which is The Dealers you know that I'm sure
God Bless.
Superbe vidéo
For brief moments Mike got to experience the intense awesomeness that I experience every day, of being in the United States of 'Murica!!
**rousing music plays and majestic eagles crap on tourists**
Mike as a Florida citrus grower I always enjoy how the other half farms... questions for you..you mentioned when the pods open what are the chances of reseeding and the survival rate? Second question as a low harvest rate what is the break even for your mustard? Thanks for your ongoing vedios.
good questions
curious if he bought crop insurance on mustard?
also wondering why not plow it under at three?
Mike.how is brown mustard sold by hundred weight .bushels. ? Very cool video with you on the border .I often wondered what the markings looked like đ
"THEY'RE LISTENING!" đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Sweet tea , need to go way down south in USA and then talk sweet tea .
Some places in south only offer 2 kinds of icetea...sweet or "would you like some tea with that sugar? Hon?
Love when Mike got back in and it Said he was averaging 12.9 bushels not really 3
You will be glad to get to the north farm see some higher yields
That sample door is better for guys like me to clean out the tank when cleaning the combine
Nice video
Pity about the yield, Prices look good though. Tripled in the last few months,
Mike. How are the new machines working out? Less problems and easier or same maintenance?
Hope you get some rain next year. Do you have crop insurance like in the US? Is mustard an insurable crop? Two bad years in a row really hurts.
Yes they do, he talked about writing off lentils a few videos back.

I'm from NC and we drink sweet ice tea
have you guys ever tried the case combines out?
Howdy good video
For us down in idaho we fill up every thirty minutes
X9 is a beast. Was watching a farmer here in the UK who traded out an NH10.90 and a Class 780 for 1 X9 and was averaging 96 tons and hour with it. His is getting a 2nd x9 for next harvest.
13:42 border marker is fascinatinf
Kates Ag is also from Montana
You need a wall to keep that wind out...
Glad to some kind of yield this season with the draught! Better than Zero ama rite?
I am on team sweet tea.
How hard would it be Mike to make said ladders near the cab? Also we use the sample door on our New Holland, but we just do wheat.
Lol the door! đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Do you have compressor connections so you can blow off the header etc at the end of the day ?
Hi Mike. What about de pulses crops this year? I sow you harvesting very poor wheat. Is the same with dry peas and lentils? Thanks
There is a shortage of mustard seeds to make french mustard etc. in Europa because of bad season last year in Canada and USA. So mustard is getting fkn expensive now. Mike you better get going harvest that crop. I need my mustard on my hot dog! Hehe.
You can say that it went from .48 cents to over 2 dollars per pound in the last year at 3 bushels per acre heâs going to be around $300 per acre on mustard for a garbage 3 bushel crop at least until the supply stabilizes and the price goes down
Mike are you running the combine in auto mode letting it adjust on the go?
Given the poor yield, would a Crary wind system help you to increase feeding into the machine and therefore minimise the loss?
