I remember this snowstorm extremely well. This was the last time I can recall us having a true white Christmas. It was Christmas Eve night around 5-6pm when I was working my first job at the Arby's in Newton. We closed at 6pm that night and were prepping the store for closure while I watched out of the lobby windows all night being mesmerized by the snow. After closing, my boss and I waited for my dad to come pick me up in the lobby with all of the lights out talking and watching the snow come down. Everyone else had already left and gone home and my boss did not want me standing outside alone in the cold to wait for my dad, so he waited with me. It was a special moment for me and something I'll never forget. After my dad got me, we went home and watched a movie in the living room with the family and had an amazing Christmas the next day. I purposely searched the December 2009 snowstorm as I was recalling those days and had found your video. It's the small moments like that in life that make me grateful for the wonderful times I had and it makes me feel comfortable.
@@daneenmurf1043 how many of those families would be fsrming their own farm if this one hadn't gobbled it up and then offered them gold to work for them?
@@KlineDeere " offered them gold " !!!😂😂😂😂 I just did a mental roundup of farm sales in my area over the years. In the vast majority of cases a farm is sold for lack of a successor. The owner gets old, theres no family member to take over so the place is sold
That's the most inefficient unloading procedure I've ever seen. Those trucks needed to unload into a hopper that feeds a belt to the piling tractors. I know it takes money to buy a hopper w/ on/off ramps. OK, but it's a ground level storage operation & look at all the equipment($...plus operators) you need to clean up after the truck pulls out. What have you been doing all spring/summer? Look at the time/fuel that's wasted by the truck drivers. They could be getting another load. Working on the cheap is more expensive in the end.
Farm I work at has actual sole age trucks and it works way better. Back right to the pile and dump and the packer tractors push it up and pack it down. We don’t have bunks tho just a asphalt pad.
This bunker looks like it will hold 1.25-1.50m bushels. Mine holds 825k 150'x400' oval. What i don't get with all those hopper bottoms instead of all those loaders you could have bought a Lamar 2500 convyer.
I can't begin to imagine what happens if one of those tractors blows a hydraulic line up on top of the pile. Hot oil seeping all the way down to the concrete...
The odds of that happening are slim. If a little hydraulic oil get on things it no big deal. The parts per million are so small that it won’t affect anything. It costs over a grand to fill those tractors with hydraulic oil. One would get shut down asap if there was a big leak. All those people working together keep an eye out for that kinda thing.
Would take longer to unload that way, dumped on the ground like that they can push it into a pile and keep trucks moving, a conveyor would take twice as long per truck
Huge! Probably 3 acres. Ethanol plant to the side and behind the old storage pile... and right next to a huge cattle feedlot operation. Probably feeding a lot of brewers mash there. www.google.com/maps/@39.7877621,-97.8201443,992m/data=!3m1!1e3
I am completely con fused right now. Are they cracking the corn before they pile it? Is this a feed lot or ethanol plant?
Приемный бункер с конвеером? Не, не слышали..., проще сперва выгрузить, потом погрузить.
ridiculous!

Unorganised Chaos,
Where is this???
Love it keep it up
This isn't farming and I hope businesses like this go under
How many families earn a living from this one outfit ?

@@daneenmurf1043 do you farm?
@@KlineDeere yes _ in Ireland. You ?
that little bobcat looks like Wall-E :D
Das sind stand zeiten die könnte man vermeiden. Und eine Menge Sprit könnte man auch sparen mit weniger Radladern?
That's a lot of grits
Doesnt look very efficient.
I love the use of the drone, but please just hover for a bit and not the constantly moving.
Not one mexican was injured in this video.
why do my corn flakes taste like fuel oil
This is for feeding cattle
Whose feedyard, and where is it at?
Without any preservatives like powder
That's the most inefficient unloading procedure I've ever seen. Those trucks needed to unload into a hopper that feeds a belt to the piling tractors.

Where is the Sound ?
Portable truck scale to weigh each load, drive over dump feeding a gravel pit stacker conveyor and you could eliminate 10 positions.
Just out of curiosity what feed yard is this at
Farm I work at has actual sole age trucks and it works way better. Back right to the pile and dump and the packer tractors push it up and pack it down. We don’t have bunks tho just a asphalt pad.
Can't you see they're running it through a roller mill before packing
Why not auger it into the crimper 🤷🏼♂️
How many acres in that field
if i got docked for splits im mad
Why not just push it to the pile after truck dump it. Why feed it through the other two machines first
The grinders crack it so the cows can digest it easier and absorb all the nutrients
they are rolling the corn to crack the kernals better effieciency in the feed
Where is this
FOR ALCAHHL FOR GAS
CCM?
Fun!
what a corny video
A little audio would be nice.
No music
So this is where Trump's wall is.
This might be dumb, but doesn't the grinded corn get ruined out in the weather?
Will my cornbread taste like tractor-tires? I'll just pretend it's pepper in the mix.
They will cover the whole pile of corn with a AG approved tarp to keep the water and the heat from ruining the corn
Surprised they don't use a unload conveyor right to the grinder instead of droppi g it on the ground
Stupid question but what happens when it rains? Does the corn get damaged? Maybe just the very outside layer gets discarded?
Gets tarpped
Pure poison! Happy diabetes if you eat that shit
Closed captioning please please

They use vegetable oil in equipment that works near it. Same thing for sensitive streams
@@dshogan6174 they are "supposed" to yes.. lol
Hydraulic oil is not that bad, but engine coolant is. But might be nothing else than water is needed in those parts of the world..😇
The odds of that happening are slim. If a little hydraulic oil get on things it no big deal. The parts per million are so small that it won’t affect anything. It costs over a grand to fill those tractors with hydraulic oil. One would get shut down asap if there was a big leak. All those people working together keep an eye out for that kinda thing.
Estimated bushels in the bunker when full?
I estimate 1.25-1.5m bu guessimating from the video. My bunker holds 825k bu 150'x400' oval.
Why don't they use drive over conveyors to feed the grinders instead of dumping it on the ground?
that would make too much sense
Would take longer to unload that way, dumped on the ground like that they can push it into a pile and keep trucks moving, a conveyor would take twice as long per truck
Que trabalho é esse nao entendo nada
👍👍👍 absolutely amazing thanks for the video

There’s no corn on the other side of the world it’s all here
How many bushels did u put in that plié and will it make a year on feeding
Ya it is premium feeders corn pile!! Nesiksa energy is south of it !! Ethanol plant !!
I think that is at Scandia ks. Premium feeders!!
That's a lot of corn
Super
