LH Farms
United States
Приєднався 9 жов 2020
LH Farms is owned and operated by Logan Hanks. I'm located in Munford, Tennessee. I'm a young farmer working to grow my operation and better my crops year after year. The average age of farmers in America is steadily rising. It is now somewhere around the age of 57 years old. I hope my videos will inspire more people as well as younger people to pursue agriculture. We need young farmers to eventually carry the torch. I also see a huge disconnect between the majority of the population and farmers. I want to help bridge that gap! Follow along as I show you how we farm in the South and what it's like being a young farmer today. Thank you for tuning in!

Any farm job offer 🙏
Sounds good, tanks for the video. Taje Care. Please which the Canadian province are you talking?
It’s so hard when you didn’t come from a family of farmers. Nobody wants to hire you because you have no experience… but how do I gain the experience If I’m not given the opportunity to learn ?!
Have you considered a coop? One farmer grazes another's livestock and the other raises beans on the previous pastured land. Isn't this the way that nature cycled the "crops" prior to modern ideas of property ownership and control?
I'm a little late to the party,LOL but your RAM MOUNT is made in the USA and their headquarters are in Seattle Washington. What's the Update on Forrest? Love your Channel and your Precious Family. 🙏❤
I am using a new farmer loan from USDA to get started. I am in my second year using them. I had no real experience other than growing up on a farm, now I am learning the hard way how to farm. I just jumped in head first and it has been a huge learning experience and expense. The paper work that he is talking about is a pain but the USDA will work with you on that and make sure your filling it out properly a lot at least 3 months for paperwork reviews. Overall its been a good experience using the USDA and would recommend to anyone trying to start out. I didn't need to buy land but I did get the operations and equipment loan from USDA. Better interest rate as well.
Thats funny.....as soon as I posted that comment he came to the part of the video where he said allow 90 days for the paperwork.
Im thinking about using a farm loan for a piece of land i am looking to purchase.. seems like you understand the process would you mind sharing more information
@@Ldtgaming Best thing I can tell you to do is get on the USDA website and read about the options and then go to the USDA office in your area and talk with a loan officer. You dont have to commit to anything to get the information.
What if a person doesn't do social media? Would that discount them? Sure, I could set up an account, but it will be empty.
this is such a great video, thanks for making it. I'd love to get into crop farming but it seems very daunting
@eternal7941 I'm glad you liked it hopefully it will help you!
The problem (for me) is on full display in these comments. All the 13-14 year olds raised in that environment taking these jobs for super low wages. You can’t support a family for less than 25 an hour, but logically why would anyone train a 23 year old for that wage when they could train a 14 year old for 8.50. I just wish I was born on a farm 😂 oh well 🤷♂️
Whats the number to contact farm credit? I google.it all kinds of different things pop up Ty 😊
I just started I’m 13 I’m still learning a lot of stuff
well that was fun to watch. thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Read or listen to Gabe Browns book, "Dirt to soil." He talks more about dealing with insects and weeds.
I've listened to it. Good book
FSA ain’t hitting on nothing man!!! I wouldn’t even waste my $15. The Gov. ain’t got nothing for you it’s all a bunch of run around.
thank you!
you just keep ruining the earth. Clueless and arrogance at its finest. Open your mind already
Shut up
Hearing under $300,000 for 81 acres as a guy from Iowa is almost enough to make me cry lol
Well if it makes you feel any better just since I made this video our land prices have gotten stupid. Not as bad as Iowa but land that used to go for say $3k is now about $5-7k/ac. Just since I made this video
@@LHFarmsTN I guess it makes sense. Land is one of those things that they aren’t making any more of. I need to get in touch with my FSA agent and see how the excess over 600,000 is covered.
Love your videos you explain in great detail. Have a farm over 10 years with cows looking for financial
Any income produced at or over $600 needs to be applied to the Schedule F or have the 3 year criteria.
Stopped watching at 2500 an acre. 12,500 an acre around here.
Well that's a dumb reason to stop watching. Thanks for commenting though.
I would ideally like to work on a homestead. Depending on the size of the farm. I have a lot of interest in Medicinal Herbs so An Organic Medicinal Herb Farm would be perfect. Not sure there is a lot of call for help in that. I love working with plants. Since I was a child I have been enchanted with plants. I am open to pretty much anything. If anyone has job. Let me know here.... Any leads welcome too. Sorry LH Farms, didn't mean to hijack your page. I am just in a desperate situation at the moment. NEED A JOB. Months ago. Earn while I learn is fine...I know a lot about gardening and plants. Also a good cook.
I drove a 26 ft moving truck from California to Colorado and then to New Mexico... Does that count?
Hi i'm interested in work for you i live in phoenix az, i know how drive a big truck some farm tractor to i love to work in farms i do not like the town am not young men but i'm still strong my age 68 years if you have a little two bedroom house by you is just me and my wife i know how to do few jobs i have my own tools i can fix you plumbing
Kiss the ground and common ground are absolutely amazing documentary’s ! They are major eye openers, many choose to ignore the truths and remain ignorant , we live in a free will universe, it’s your choice to either open your eyes minds and hearts, for myself I want the truth,regardless of how many changes that truth might bring about, it’s better than believing and living in a lie ,this world is full of lairs and frauds and there’s no shortage of ignorance,be part of the change , don’t embrace the lies!
🙄🙄🙄
Very helpful. I’m a machinist for Boeing, looking to get into row cropping to pay for some hunting land. Thanks for the information, helps a lot!
So does work experience at a cooperative count for the 3 year's qualification
It should it’s in the agriculture sector
I hear you. As soon as I hear Hollywood types I am immediately skeptical 👍
I subscribed ❤ this was well said 👏
Great testimony brother. I totally agree with you that having faith in the Lord is the most important thing to have. I struggle with keeping the faith sometimes but I always look back and remember that He has always brought me through the hard times.
WHO EXACTLY BOUGHT THIS FARM LAND . WAS IT CHINA ?
So Kiss The Ground seems to be talking more about this having to do with Climate Change . What’s your thoughts with this & climate change ?
WELL THANK YOU. I ONLY LOOKED THIS UP DUE TO MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT IS ANTHROPOLOGIE AND STARTING TODAY THEY HAVE ROUND OFF TO THE DOLLAR WHEN THERE PURCHASE IS MADE . WHICH GOES TO ( KISS THE GROUND )
Love the footage but it doesn’t explain your ratio of what your spraying? Just looking to learn more
You’re a wonderful spokesperson for helping us non-farmers for understanding and supporting small family farms. I’d love see the TV 60 minutes do a segment with you. I think kiss the ground is trying get the public support to understand natural resources benefits and to support farming. but as you point out it’s not always focused on practicalities of farming.
Well spoken realistic commentary, this coming from someone who has lived on a farm for 65 years from Alberta, Canada.
Nice footage!
7 yrs ago tried small garden "no till" w/ next door. Complete disaster! Everything was "google it." When i told the broad maybe this was a plot by "google it" to get a million pple spinning their wheels & starve to death, she LOL. I was dead damn serious! Near as i could figure, they got info fr "back to eden" ish guy (VS Kloss' herb book) who had poured wood chips everywhere. He had a squishy bible that sd, "God sent Adam fr tilling...." VS the KingJames (KJV) God sent him "....TO TILL the ground." Beside that, looked like his chips had been there at least a decade. Could foresee a time if pple tried chips in orchard maybe the roots could not attain H2O as before & the terrain would become uneven. Especially if they applied all at once to try to be like this bozo. Also, there's a REASON that tree was cut-maybe pests. You don't know.... Like igits of next door & imported carpenter ants. Next door's replication of ish: prior yr's garden (barely turned, soil brought in, mixed w/ sand). Not near enuff level. Dump mega yds of new wood chips & half-ass spread. Some areas 8" chips, some none... Played much havoc planting, irrigation, growth, PEST HAVEN. Tender roots-n-shoots decimated by razor sharp chips. One part of the garden became ACID fr chips.... i keep a lot of Bicarb of Soda, but c'mon! Dude of next door finally roto-tilled a sm patch (10X10) that hadn't been worked in 50yrs. 2 fair passes. Crabgrass roots just would not come out by hand...2hrs+.... Poor loam. Transplanted some cabbages who were bursting in grow pots. Por fin! Some real dirt! Alas, no.... If i failed to H2O daily they would suffocate. Still feel guilty for torturing those plants... Especially annoying was their version of pest control. Mainly non-existant. If they had just gone down w/ a flyswatter once in a while....Oi! Grasshoppers come out when is hot, 1400 ish. "It's tooo hot!" At least i could get their kitten to go out w/ & he was a big help. Nothing would get big enuff to w/stand the bug infestation. If i could just get over the hump... Made all natural, 50gal hail mary potion: bugs, nutrients, repellent. Dude helped me apply to whole of garden 1 eve-about 1hr. Next day epic growth, fresh, happy, bug free. i sd if we did it again in 2or3wks we could kill emerging bugs, break cycle, & allow healthy growth. Ah, no. We can't do that... In my own yard no motorized help. Can't dig-1shovel dirt & 3shovels stone. Made boxes of various sorts. El-cheapo $1yd store dirt amended. Plenty feral cats VS 3 of my own (which but for the feral i'd only have 1, but i have 3 'cause there are feral....f*ing nitemare! ...nevermind..). Bought $120 worth of 2"X4" fencing to keep cats out. Either on the soil or made a fence&roof around box w/ gravity. Not pretty. Those raised beds NEED turning. They have other probs, but whatever. The point is-what will work for me will not work for you. In GA i had to save my own irrigation. In WA State no. FARMERS around the globe are under attack. The NWO-types keep pressing. We are in a squeeze play: top down, bottom up, squeeze out the middle. Holland has had success. Now i heard an ish outa NDakota & Noam is quiet, or are we out of the loop? That Amish dude, Amos Miller, PA, USA is pressed beyond measure (same demise here in WA State decades ago w/ homogenization). We see there is no recourse. The ImperialFed, courts, & bureaucracy are all pre-verted, or full of perverts, whatever.... Meanwhile, we got CuckerTarlson, AlexJones, DJTrump (courts weaponized against people & now rich pple), TikTok circus, & now these Hollyweird clowns keeping us distracted fr what laws ARE being passed. Did anyone tell you the Trump tax cuts will sunset in 2025? i heard it ONCE over the AP wire. Not only damn, but just damn! The Atlanta Fulton CO website has been shut down for 2mos-allegedly by hackers. Ha! For the trial of the century? Really? I think is enuff time to scrub a couple of elections.... Meanwhile, young man, i would like to see a real "no till" on a grand scale. i think you could get away w/ alfalfa, but idk. Walk us thru it. Give us a good talk & bust up hi-lites for those w/ the attention span of a gnat. i pray for you & yours health & blessing. Happy you are not a AgWelfare whore. Very happy, indeed, Sir. ps Would not have clicked on your vigja if it had been 3min. By the time ya get theme muzak, high, my name is..., & bye, sign up ish; i don't know what you can tell me in 2min i don't know already. pss Sorry old broad war-n-peace rant. *sigh* Keep movin'!
Many thx review. Hate Hollyweird ish & Official Agenda spew we usually get fr these reprobates. i smell a rat... #ClimateFraudShills
Keep up the good content
Nice
Well, that soybean special plant grass seed as well? I know the lagoons are a lot bigger than ryegrass seed or wheat grass. Wondering if it could handle that small of a seed
Have you considered Paul Stamets approach. To help break down the usage of pesticides, and also there are natural cover crops and support crops you can plant that will benefit your yield and provide adequate if not perfect pest free conditions. Wont deter your deer if you find that a postive or negative .. There is a solution to everything. There are "different" solutions to everything. Props and great video.. I would also recommend tilling and planting again in the fall after harvest... especially for dry soil. It will help add more water before the frost. Then let grow normally in spring. If it works for hay, alfalfa and clovers it will work for your beans. Less work.. and all damage is done in the same time frame. Plus the seeds that fall from the harvest will also provide strengthening qualities which will grow and add shading for the new seeds. Let grow one full summer, 1 to 2 harvest that summer, if needed more, but the idea is to allow their root to grow through tough times, and promote tougher plants. You can also, and yes sounds silly, but you can teach your plants to produce seeds that will provide a stronger resistance towards pest too. Be a biofarmer and science the shit out of it. One weird study says if you place a seed under your tou gue before planting you are promoting the seed to grow a plant suitable for your body. What I am getting at is dont be a closed door, knowledge comes from opening doors like opening book. Nothing is learned from a closed book and nothing gets through a closed door.
Are you not planting in the green this year?
If I do it'll be very minimal. Where it worked it worked well but I ran into a couple issues on a couple farms and where I did it was a pretty catastrophic loss on yield.
Glad you had a successful day spraying, Please keep us updated on the new calf Forrest ❤
I definitely will!
What would you charge to spray some pasture?
Man I have no idea honestly, I've done any custom but we can chat about it!
So around here there’s several operations that will share a sprayer since they are so expensive. How come you and your dad don’t share a sprayer to help save on the cost of owning two?
So initially that's what we did as I was growing my operation. It would absolutely save us both money if we shared one but honestly it was hard to share the sprayer. My dad and I get along great but communication is not his greatest strong suit! Lol so we would clash at times on how to juggle equipment. That's ultimately why I pretty much went independent on my own. It was the best thing for mine and his relationship which I did not want to jeopardize.
@@LHFarmsTN completely understandable! Working with family isn’t easy and keeping a good relationship is very important!
Absolutely!
Blue tooth transmitter for the win! I also have several of them. I keep one in my lunch pale during planting and harvest!
Dude these things are awesome lol who needs a fancy new sprayer or tractor when you got these things!
Good to see you using latex gloves!! Lol
Always safety first! Lol
This is the most informative video I’ve seen on the 4730. I would love to have one but am currently trying to pay off a cotton stripper before making any more big purchases. I enjoy learning all I can about these sprayers on the off chance I’ll end up getting one sooner rather than later. I’m currently doing all my spraying with two tractor mounted 60 foot booms and it’s really hard to get over enough ground in between windy days. A neighbor of mine helps me when I get behind. He ran a 4730 then upgraded last year to an R 4030. The 4730 would be more in the lines of what I’d be wanting to spend for one, and like you said , they’re all going to have some hours on them at this point. Thanks for educating those of us who know little about these sprayers.
I really appreciate the support! I tried to go over anything I could think of. The 4730 is a great sprayer. I would take a late model 4730 over an early model R4030 for sure. Also if the farmer has taken good care of it then you'd still be good even with high hours. You gotta start somewhere!
Can you recommend a type of hose to use for the boom? What about hose clamps? I have a pull behind 500gal 50ft boom hardi sprayer that has some cracked hoses where the boom folds. For 3500$ it does my few hundred acres adequately.
To be honest when I need the hose I'm usually after whatever I can find because I'm in a hurry. Lol But I try to find comparable PSI rated or higher rated hose if I can. Our local NAPA is who I usually get it from. If a pull behind does the job then by all means keep rockin and rollin with it!!
