Just a couple of 5th generation farmers raising cows, crops, and our little country boys in small town Nebraska. Telling our story as we go and showing y’all what it’s like to farm and raise a family in rural Nebraska!
Harvest Hustle: A Day in the Life, Pivot Bio, & My First Time Driving the Combine!
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at a day in the life of harvest on our family farm! 🚜🌽 Per usual, we’re putting Pivot Bio to the test this season and sharing how it’s performing in our fields. Plus, in a big milestone moment, I (the farm wife!) take the wheel of the combine for the very first time-talk about stepping out of my comfort zone! 🙌
From early morning starts to golden hour views, you’ll get an up-close look at the hard work and family teamwork that makes harvest happen. Don’t miss the laughs, lessons, and a little bit of farm wife grit as we wrap up another season on the land we love. ❤️🌽

On a scale of 1 to 10, how easy is it to apply nitrogen producing microbes to the soil?!
Переглядів 1023 місяці тому
We've been applying Pivot Bio PROVEN40 to our soil since 2020. Each year we increase our use and each year we are continued to be impressed by our results. It's one of my FAVORITE ag things to geek out about. Learn just how EASY it is to apply and why it is such a huge part of cash flow puzzle. Check out previous videos to learn more from years past!

Harvesting corn in a drought - did our crop PROVE itself?!
Переглядів 38110 місяців тому
Harvest is here and done. Our crop didn't just survive, it honestly thrived. Our growing season was full of ALLLLL the obstacles. The worst drought we've seen in our lives, multiple tornadoes, countless hail storms, and wind gusts of 90mph being more common than not. It was a doozy of a year for weather, y'all. Our crop was tested and it stood the tests well. Yes, our yields were down. BUT we s...
Growing corn in a drought and PROVING it with Pivot Bio
Переглядів 366Рік тому
Growing corn in Nebraska in 2023 has been NO JOKE. We had almost no rain, we had to run our pivots before we could even plant (Levi's dad and grandpa don't ever remember having to do this), we had some insane storms with high winds and hail, and again... almost no rain. Follow along to scout our crops with us throughout the season and hear from Levi about what and why the looks the way it does!...
The results are in - Did Pivot Bio prove itself?
Переглядів 670Рік тому
Every single thing we use on our farm earns every single acre it is applied too. A new product must prove it has a return on our investment before we will go all in and scale it across our farm. It's been a three year process, but Pivot Bio's PROVEN40 product proved itself and we are going all in on our corn acres next year - watch to learn why!

How we increased yield AND applied less Nitrogen per acre
Переглядів 5 тис.Рік тому
Ever heard of a CCI meter? It measures the Chlorophyll Concentration Index in plants. I hadn’t heard of it either. But I got to use one live in our corn fields this summer and I was impressed. Now WHY is this such a big deal? This meter allowed us to measure the chlorophyll concentration in corn plants throughout the growing season, at that moment in time. We know that chlorophyll is an indicat...

TEST PLOT: How 30 acres of corn can make or break our farm.
Переглядів 4314 роки тому
This miiiiight be a little late. Life got busy, we had a baby, and I didn't get around to posting this until now. BUT we are harvesting our test plot this week and wanted y'all to have an idea of WHY we plant a test plot and HOW we go about it. Not a lot of farmers plant test plots, but we swear by it. Basically, we pick a 30ish acre piece of a field each year and plant 8 rows of 30 different v...
HOW TO GET 50 BULLS TO CROSS THE HIGHWAY!
Переглядів 1684 роки тому
All those cows and bulls that we run on corn stalks each winter can only stay on each field for so long. Each group has to be moved frequently to a fresh field to ensure the cattle have access to plenty of feed. It's a lot easier to walk or "drive" the cattle down the road to the next field instead of trailering them in several loads. Follow along to see how we move the groups pretty seamlessly...
WE GET PAID TO BABYSIT COWS?!
Переглядів 1814 роки тому
Yep, you read that right. In addition to our own herd, each winter we watch about 1,000 head of cattle on our corn stalks. Most of the cows are from ranches in Western Nebraska and Kansas. Corn stalks are a great winter feed option for cattle ranchers! The cows also clean up most of the corn left on the ground after harvest. This cuts back on the volunteer corn farmers would see in their fields...
HOW TO TAKE CARE OF A COW MATERNITY WARD

Just like humans, nursing cows have different nutrient and calorie needs than pregnancy cows. How on earth does a farmer keep track of how much to feed to who?!

ICE ICE BOVINE: CHOPPING ICE & TURNIP FIELDS
Переглядів 944 роки тому
Each winter we take in about 1,000 head of cattle from ranchers in western Nebraska and Kansas. We run these cows on our corn stalks. Some fields are spread with turnip seed using an aerial spray plane. Turnips are an excellent option for the cattle to eat. They provide nutrients and high moisture content. AND the cows LOVE the turnips. The cows do a great job cleaning up the corn that is lefto...
Feeding that COW CHOW
Переглядів 3824 роки тому
It’s winter here in Nebraska. Most of our cattle are still out grazing corn stalks. BUT, when it snows we supplement them with extra feed to ensure all of their nutritional needs are being met. Follow along as we mix hay and silage to feed the cows. Get a little laugh from Stetson as he navigates his little tractor and bosses us around a little bit. Also, stay tuned because over 120 baby calves...
Cows on the ROAD! Say WHAT?!
Переглядів 2014 роки тому
Follow along with us as we go on a cattle drive! In the winter we keep our cows along with several hundred cows from other ranchers on corn stalks. The stalks provide a great source of protein for the cattle and are an excellent winter feed option here in Nebraska. Once each field is grazed down, we move the cows by walking them to their next field, also called CATTLE DRIVES!! One of our favori...

Great video. I agree. More videos
Outstanding!! I love your UA-cam videos, just wish they were more frequent. I can only imagine what a joy it is for the gang to see your van driving up knowing there’s a delicious hot meal inside, and hey, great job in the combine! Thanks for sharing!! 😊
What a great video!! You need to make more. Great job in the combine, a couple of more rounds you will be doing it on your own. What a good idea for the meal wagon.
Yay!! Love seeing y’all post on UA-cam! Also really enjoying your podcasts with MP!! Great job!! 😊
I love your belief in this product. Did you say that it can used with pro boxes?
You are so beautiful❤

I know how you feel, yields down here but still surprised that they were as good as they were.
Looks really promising!! Did you find an yield increase this year with pivot bio?
What was the yields?
What's your nitrogen program
What planting space did you use between the rows and columns
That is great news! Your faith in the product has been confirmed, easy enough to prove it's worth. Keep the info coming.
Great info guys! Wishing you a great 2023 season!
Please, can i apply only 40kg of nitrogen on one hectare of sorghum farm
Figures don't lie Jena. Great job with this test, now the big jump into all the acres. I hope that you continue your research. Looking forward to more from you and your husband. Thanks.
Excellent video, Jena and Levi, well explained, and delivered, thanks for sharing

Oh I wish we had corn fields. South Arkansas is timber country. It’s (in my opinion) such a waste of acres. They grow trees and there’s really nothing else lol. I get the importance of trees. Don’t come for me lol
