@@badger1132 Thank you. She is half Jersey and half beef, Angus/Hereford. Her mother Tulip is our usual Jersey milk cow but lost the calf she was carrying so we had to find a substitute cow. Tulip should calve in January.

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn The potatoes aren't looking too good right now, but there's some under there. Definitely a good price. I can deal with quite a bit for cash. 🤣

@@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754 The 130 mile round trip pulling a spreader for 2 tons seemed like a bad idea. I can bucket fertilizer a lot faster than that. 🤣 I have a couple areas that are covered in small rock but mostly it's the scattered big ones. In those bad areas all a guy can do is pick the bigger ones and roll the rest down.

@@pinesedgefarm1155 Well I don't really think it should be time to get frost but the weather doesn't seem to care what I want. 🤣 if I had bigger fields it would take forever to get anything done but it holds about 600 lbs of granular so 300 lbs an acre isn't too many refills on a 4 acre field. It spreads fairly evenly so I can't complain.

@@paulcasefarms9933 Hello Paul. Good to see you. Thanks for stopping by.

@@Heimerviewfarm The potatoes look better than I thought today. They should be able to put a little into the potatoes yet.

@@burrridgefarms That will be nice to have haying done. I didn't get half of what I wanted to done but you know how that is.

Oh sure Will.... my f-150 needs attention as well as the 1086 and a thousand other things will come up as well. I hope you have a good Monday at work... I'm taking one more hay day tommrow 😉

@@burrridgefarms I am probably going to have to take a few days for barn building. I try to work as few days as possible the end of October and go to the woods with a dog every day.

I guess if was easy everyone would be doing it. 🤣 The first year I grew millet we had an early frost and the tall stuff got burned but it came out alright. I wouldn't think you'd have a toxicity problem if it stands there a while.

@@farawayfarm2520 I am going to wait a week before I turn the cows out on it. Everything I read says wait 7 days

@@LVFFarmVlogs That's what I've read too. I'm trying to get this rye field I tore up from sod ready to plant. It's too dry. Sod clumps and dust.

@@Pennies_on_the_dollar I suppose you have weeds that might freeze. Our weeds seem to be selected for cold hardiness.🤣 Building really needs to get going around here. That fill method is good exercise. 🤣🚜🌽🇺🇸

@@farawayfarm2520 😁😁😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤣🤣🤣

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin There's no doubt I would enjoy a buggy with rate control. I could pull a buggy from Floodwood and back but for a couple ton here and there I guess I'll use the bucket filling method. I should be able to keep a lot of carry over bales in good shape in the hoop building. 👍🙂

@@farawayfarm2520 nothing wrong with fling guessing!! We did it for years.. didn't have any electronics until we got it with the chassis we rebuilt. I have to read the book every year, but once it's set, it's set.. no guessing, other than spacing between passes..

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin This little three point spreader definitely throws shorter to the right so I crowd my last pass when I turn right and widen out a little if I'm turning left.

@@farawayfarm2520 we had a twin spinner, then a JD 602 single spinner, now a JD 605 box on the buggy.. we've always thrown back to the last track.. always works out 👍

@@tractortalkwithgary1271 Thanks Gary. 🚜👍

@@tractortalkwithgary1271 It does the job. Like I said in the video I usually end up with the right poundage going on the right number of acres.

@@tractortalkwithgary1271 It's getting to be that time of year alright. I don't know about your forecast but corn and beans would sure dry here the next couple weeks. If we had any.

@@tractortalkwithgary1271 Gina wanted the window wide open that night, it got a little freezy by morning.

@@brycewiborg8095 The pattern for moisture here is somewhat predictable. Too wet to get first cutting off when you should and then too dry to grow any second. Thanks Bryce

@@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754 That's the place.

@@farmingforfunandprofit940 15 miles is a bit of a drive to a hay field. About 6 miles is as far as I have ever had to go and that was a one time deal. Good to hear from you again. 👍🙂

@@Pennies_on_the_dollar Hi Nelson. You know how it is. A job to go to and not enough time in the day. Daylight is getting less and snow is coming. Supposed to be really warm for the next 10 days or so. It's getting awful dry here now.

@@markmortensen4341 Thanks for watching. I always think I should get more clips of the area. Maybe I will try to do that. 🙂👍

@@pinesedgefarm1155 Trying to get some farming done. 🤣 It's getting so dry here I wonder if the rye will sprout. We have gotten missed by all the rain for a month now.

@@southtexashay777 It was relatively productive with no major issues. I guess that's a win. 👍 Thanks

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn It sure is a whole lot more interesting than the main highways. 👍🙂

@@e.a.bfarms Nice to be that close. Within reasonable distance of me most of the decent farmable ground is being used for one cutting of hay a year with little to no inputs. A local guy who watches my videos refers to it as subsistence beef farming. There are a lot of landowners that are having someone cut it to keep the brush from taking over. There are also a fair number of people still cutting their own fields and selling the hay because they have the equipment but haven't had animals for years. Sometimes someone gives up a piece or quits farming and then the landowner is looking for someone else to cut it. The pieces I hay that aren't mine have all come to me that way. I've never gone out looking for another piece, someone just shows up at my door wondering if I would be interested in cutting their place. There are a few rental arrangements between people that I know of but there really aren't any set prices per acre or anything like that. If I wanted to find more ground I could do it fairly easily. All of it would need major improvement but I know it would work. The first year I owned this I made 19 bales 5x5 cutting everything I could get the haybine over. This would be typical of the unimproved one cutting fields that are standard here. This year at home I made 50 silage bales 13 dry 4x6s and 200 small squares on less area than the unimproved first year. Things will grow here. I believe my best business model would be making small squares. On a year like this the area is going to be flooded with cheap round bales. There's always a market for decent squares, and by decent I mean anything that isn't dusty. I would definitely have to improve a lot of small fields to get some consistency and improvement in yield. You can probably tell from the lengthy answer that I think about this a lot. Thanks for the question. I would love to come visit someday this winter to see your place and we can have a discussion on the farming possibilities here.

@@LVFFarmVlogs Thanks. The weather has been absolutely beautiful since I got done with hay. Warm days, cool nights, and most importantly no bugs. We could actually use some moisture but I can't complain about one sunny day after another. 👍🙂

@@budl4656 I come down 53 for a ways and then cross 7 on County133? or whatever it is that goes west to Meadowlands.

@@budl4656 I've been up and down 7 plenty of times in the winter with Madi looking for owls. 🦉

@@brycewiborg8095 The summer traffic drops off pretty fast after Labor Day around here. I saw a lot of boats and campers headed south yet on Tuesday. I guess they took an extra day. I would imagine over the years you've been up US2 through there a few times.

@@woodsgremlin9995 65 miles. Mostly on good county roads.

@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin I used to be able to get fertilizer in Virginia 22 miles away but they closed in '21. Floodwood is an hour plus drive but no towns at all just swamp and a some farms. I was seriously looking at a place in Meadowlands when we moved here but it's twice the distance to drive to work as it is from here and the price was a little more than I wanted to spend.

@@brenterickson1695 I was thinking of you when I made the last clip. You have no farming support up there. The feed store in Virginia closed in '21 I think. We like Floodwood, good people running it.

@@farawayfarm2520 We use Dan's in Superior and Widde's in Esko.....it's a long run either way.

@@brenterickson1695 I've been to both of those a few times.

@@MySliceOfHeavenoutdoors It's amazing what they can take. I'd hate to have one rip. You can definitely tell there's a ton hanging there.

We've had a few loops break.. can go really bad in a hurry! We've been lucky, no one's been hurt!

@@burrridgefarms Thanks Adam. Sometimes it's like that. I tell myself that as long as I accomplish something farm related after work things are moving forward.

@@Oliver_Huniadvari Thanks for watching. 🙂👍

@@michiganhay7844 I'm going to make it so that there's always panels around the barn so a guy can move them out and scrape up the manure and such things. Thanks.

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn You're right about changing your mind. These portable panels are too easy to rearrange. We have to create some fixed points around here.

@@Pennies_on_the_dollar Hello Nelson. 🙋‍♂️. That crane is an awesome invention for sure. You would have liked the pennies on the dollar price too. Everyone should have cows but not having to deal with fence would be nice. 🤣 The 40 is getting a very big brother. I'll send you a picture when I get one from Cody. We just got back from acquiring another cheap storage option.

@farawayfarm2520 Looking fwd to it 😉😉😁😁😁

My guess being on the Range, a D8 2U or a D8 13A pony.

@@brenterickson1695 I know that's the trouble with fencing. Always a better idea. It is complete and runs perfectly. Needs some clutch work which is why he pulled it. It's going back on the CAT next weekend.

@@brenterickson1695 2U. I had a feeling you might be the guy who knew exactly what it is.

@@brycewiborg8095 Thanks Bryce. I have an artist and a mechanic. 👍🙂

@@e.a.bfarms The kid is making some good inventions. It's a pony. I can't wait to make the video when he gets the whole machine home. 🤣

@@paulcasefarms9933 Good name for a video. 😁 I could use a lot of oil field pipe if we had any around here. I figured quite a few people would figure out what it was. 👍

@@burrridgefarms I just kept changing things because there was always something I didn't like. When this is done I should be able to move a few panels for manure hauling and leave everything else together. When they beat up the spot I fenced today in the back. I think I'm going to lock mine in until I get a little regrowth.

@@budl4656 Thanks Bud. We should find many uses for that boom. Can't fool you. 👍

Old yellow and two plugs not johnny yellow what did I win 😕 to late u spread it on the field

@@budl4656 The only question remaining is the Cat model and year. I'll have check what I have for prizes. 😁

Rd 6 1940s maybe something whit side pony

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn People are more afraid of geese than dogs. 🤣 You can definitely hear rocks. When I get too deep they start peeling out of the clay. I really can't complain about my topsoil, I just wish it was two feet deeper. 😁

@@badger1132 It has Timothy seeded with it and a few other volunteer grasses. Thanks for watching and the comment. 👍🙂

I would love to have a 450 crawler loader. I really need a no till drill so I can get on with my next level of experiments. 😁

@@michiganhay7844 I just like to complain about horses. 🤣 I'll take any manure I can get. These fields were in sod for so long they grow really clean. This one is starting to get some weed load but it should go back in hay next year.

@@paulcasefarms9933 Got about a half inch since the video was made. It's helping. Good luck with yours.

@@budl4656 It has to be spread. There are worse jobs.

@@brycewiborg8095 There are geese. You can come get them. 🤣

The spuds look good. A brother tells me to scatter dill seed with vegetables that deer, and rabbits graze. He says they leave the dill alone. Worth a try.

​@@brycewiborg8095I've heard of the dill idea but never tried it.
