    I checked the Internet about size of farms in Saskatchewan. “The total farmed area in Saskatchewan was just over 60.2 million acres and the average farm size is 1,766 acres. Looking at demographics, 26,770 Saskatchewan farmers or 60.6 per cent are in the 55 and over age category.” “In all of Canada the average farm is 809 acres.”
    So the Keilstra’s have a large acreage to farm (3100 acres) and maintain. Lots of work for them I am sure.

    The ropes are wearing out sooner because I notice in another video that you drop the milk header from about a foot when taking it off. That's where the quicker wear at the 'pinch point' is coming from I would think.

    The expansiveness of the prairie always impresses me. So much flat land, like the Netherlands but different…even larger.
    I live in Ontario but have had the chance to see these Saskatchewan fields during harvest as night falls. It leaves a real impression. The lights, the dust, the size of it all.

    No better investment than land.. Buildings, Machinery and even livestock do not hold a candle to how land will increase in value.. Buildings and Machinery decrease to such an extent that they become worthless.. Cows tend to hold their own in that they are not prolific breeders like pigs or chickens as the fluctuation in prices for those is relatively predictable.. so.. The cows will always carry your loans and NEVER lose sight of that but the end game will always be the land.. How much of that you have should reflect how many cows you have to carry it along with any equipment because relying on cereal crops is a fools errand.. simply a reflection of how prolific it can be bred and is very predictable in good bad and poor years it is rare that you can even meet fuel costs.. The value is in how you improve the actual soil.. i like that you found a fall crop that will serve to keep your soil from setting sail for Manitoba lol

    I understand that the majority of farms such as yours Grow a lot of their crops to feed their animals But have you ever considered growing crops that feed humans Probably more beneficial for sustainability...And I do understand that you know the fact that Milk farms and cattle farms technically are cultivating food By raising the animals But we can use plants and vegetables too, it's a good part of our healthy diet that we're missing..Cattle can live off of hay and alfalfa and other things like that and still be well off right so why not grow more food for people too..? just a curious but honest question. I mean with all the shortages and inflation and all that I would think that more people growing crops for food would cut all those prices and things like that down right..!?!?😇🙏✌💛🗽💯
