Planting Oats With Case 830 Rolling The Oat Field
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- The fields are finally ready to be planted. The Case 830 Tractor gets to work with our John Deere grain drill. After the first round, Alan attaches a drag to the grain drill to cover the seeds. After planting, the field gets rolled by the International 1066 and our homemade field roller.

We milk a mix of 33 Jersey, Holstein, Brown Swiss, Guernsey, and Ayrshire cattle. We also enjoy sharing our family's love of Draft Horses and using them for logging and other farm work. Dairy Farming in Minnesota can be challenging, but it's a lifestyle we really enjoy. Subscribe today to watch our small family dairy farm and family grow while continuing to thank our Lord for the blessings we've been given.
Love you all!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Small family farms are the greatest
I really enjoy your channel. Awesome to see the boys getting older and helping pops out haha. God bless you and your family ✝️
The tractors sure run nice. Thanks for sharing another planting season. Praying for a good harvest.
The Case makes a nice planting tractor.
Extra tractor drivers always a good thing.👍
Getting a good jump on your tillage and planting
That tractor is a perfect size for you right now Jordan, just keep your mind on what you're doing and you will be an operator in no time!
Prayers for a safe and prosperous year.
Love the Case tractor .That old one is so cool.
Love spring time , new beginnings . Great video Al . 👍God Bless
Nice 830 purring like a kitten.
What a great way for kids to grow up. I’m so glad I grew up on a farm in the 80’s and 90’s. All we had was old Farmall’s and Oliver’s. 12 years old I was backing gravity wagons and 4 wheel hay wagons into barns better than anyone.
Nice to get some crops in now if we keep getting some rain it’ll be a bin buster!
Jerome is on the move! Alan dad had an fbb drill mechanical lift. We used the old drill so long we had to wedge a peice of wood in the lever to keep it in the rite place.
Just want to say I love your channel! I watch Gierok farms and that’s how I found you. Binged watched all your episodes of you and your Awesome family! Thank you for all you do as a farmer and keeping us fed! BTW not all of us watching are farmers. I grew up on farms and have an appreciation. Soon as I move out of Green Bay Wi and into the country again I plan to get some cows! Thanks for the videos Alan! You the man! Keep the videos coming
UA-cam is playing games again but I did watch the whole video of you planting and your Dad on the Rollers. Thanks for another great video and wishing you all the best crops.
TD,
I enjoyed watching. We had a IH drill about the same vintage/size. It had a board across the back that I spent many hours riding on while dad was seeding winter wheat. We drug a heavy log chain behind to smooth and level the ground. Boe
I wish you all success concerning your pursuit of the Ayrshire Breed. Continue, and you will not be disappointed!
Thank you for sharing. The sounds of spring is always a good thing. Hope you beat the weather?
It's always a good feeling getting in the field in the spring! The beginnings of a new growing season!
You have the same seed drill we had , we had a bord across the back to stand on , i remember my grandfather pulling the drill with me standing on the back of the drill on the bord , he had me back there to keep the seed level when we planted the hill side's,
Great video!!!
Glad to see you and me and others still run older tractors and equipment
Always good to see those old CASE tractors working. Hope you have a great year on the farm.
❤😊 YOU HAVE PLENTY OF ROCKS TO POUND BACK IN THE GROUND ❤😊
Another great video. I have an old Van Brunt drill. It hasn't been used in at least 30 years. Big steel wheels.
There's a neat way to calibrate the drill that can get you within 5% in about 15 minutes. Works with any drill. I'm not sure where to find it, but one of the southern University's has it on UA-cam. It's worth a try, saves wasted seed or thin stands. Great video with the Van Brunt drill. Or a close descendant. 👍👍
Really good to see spring planting again. Never thought we would see this again so soon
Hey Alan,,, I use a piece of chain link fence behind the drill ,, wrks real well , pull it with a ih 856 no cab but I do have an old 6 ft umbrella on it
Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊
Crazy to think last oats seeded at home were in about 94, 30 years ago. Dad always had rodney oats, it had good standablity, didn't get flattened in the windstorms.
Hope you have a great and blessed growing season!🍻🇺🇸
👀🙄🐾👍Great video Alan Jennifer and family the 1066 sounds well but a deere 4240 would sound better 😂
I love oats.
Great video! Thank you for taking the time to do this!
If you do decide to experiment with no-till/minimal-inputs of planting corn/beans into standing rye (or oats!) you run that triple roller "down and back" (to knock down any trying to stand up) after the corn/beans emerge and it flattens the rye/oats cover crop. Without spending big on a roller-crimper two passes with a roller like you have works.
Hey Allen,,,Justin is turning into a great right hand man. It's gotta feel good to be getting seed in the ground already. Corn is up next. Then haying,,then harvest. We always measured time by the season,,not the days.
Awesome video! We appreciate y’all so much
Very nice job and God bless y'all
Do you ever see flocks of birds feeding on the freshly planted seed?
Yeah
Hope ya'll get some rain to get those seeds going 😊
Great job Allen, that field looked well prepared. Nice to see the young boys helping out, every little bit helps. Nice videoing and editing Jen. (That's the wiffies' name ?) BTW @14:08 like the idea for storing the extra links. Have a great week.
Yep, you got her name right.
@@trinitydairy that's what I thought. Good night guys.
I seeded a lot of oats during my farming days and never felt the need to exceed 3 bushels per acre.
Oats stools out.
I don't believe seeding at a heavier rate than 3 bushels per acre will increase your grain yield at harvest time.
In my area of MN, you "seeded" small grains and "planted" row crops.
Alan and an Eagle and a Deere sowing oats in the ground..... Go time. What variety are you planting? We're planning Rodney.
These are Rodney also.
Hi Trinity Dairy
Nice video as always.Great content
Is spillin' the oats similar to spillin' the beans?
Lol
Planting with a drill is just a controlled spill😂
Hey Y'all, I have kinda of a dumb question, I see you roll your oats in and I see some others that don't roll them in. Back on our ole Family farm, We never did and our cousin next to us did! Growing up I really never seen the difference between rolling them in and not rolling them in. So what is the benifit of rolling them in to not rolling them in?Here I am 65 years old and still know the reason. I guess I never learned that lesson or was never taught.
Enjoyed your video, Thanks for sharing.
It pushes the rocks down and gives a better seed to soil contact.
Seeding is kind of a quiet operation operation compared to some field work. Seemed like when we sowed you could always hear the clinking sound especially when we used chains behind. Might have been the springs on the disc movement making more noise on our IH drills.Do you feed your oats as a supplement at milking time or chop it as a hay or silage? My dad grew oats a coupld years, but worried about shelling. We usually grew barley since we are in a wheat growing area. That crop may not work with corn rotation. Those hollow rollers are quite drum like. We had more packer type that were pretty heavy and were made to crush hard clods for pea growing to make a real smooth bed as the dried clods could get pretty hard. It's good to get going I bet. Best wishes. Those Case have their own sound, but I guess other makes do too.
Hoping to combine these oats to use for heifer feed.
Question why not just use the brillion behind the grain drill, not just to seed alfalfa. That would save a pass, since fuel is so expensive?
To much wear and tear on the brillion.
I realize you in a different part of the country but I was wondering why you only plant four pounds to the acre. If I’m going for forage I at least plant fifty. Grain I usually 100 pounds to the acre. Now we have to irrigate everything in utah. I realize that sandy ground needs lots of water.
This is for grain, 4bu per acre, if I said pounds in the video, that was my mistake.
Ellen, what's the benefit of rolling the field after you plant?
It pushes the rocks down, and gives better seed to soil contact.
Good question.
By the way his name is Allen not Ellen.
I know you have to appease the John Deere guys, but honestly, don't you prefer the Case and the International tractors? I know that I do.
Yeah I prefer them too.
He can be in the field already while the Deere guys are still trying to get their cold blooded tractors started 😂
That's for certain.
Conditions are looking good for seeding, whats the plan whit the oats this season, thanks and greetings from a Dutch dairyfarmer
I'm hoping to combine them and use them for heifer feed.
Oke, thanks for the reply
Whats the weather like over their, over here in Ireland its completely dark and clouded over all the time and constant rain, not normal at all i don't think.
We have been having a nice mix of sunny days and rainy days.
What is your opinion on oat hay? I have never fed any, but I am about to start. (being fed to hair sheep)
I think it's good feed, but hard to get dry. I would recommend wrapping it.
Does the rollers have weight inside them?
No, the wings weigh #1000 a piece, and the center roller is about #1500.
Question? When I plant oats I usually get bin run oats from a mill. I don't even know what kind they are. Should you plant certified oats for a Good yield or do you think it comes down to ground prep. Alot of times my oats don't get as tall as I would like. Thanks
If you're using bin run oats ,it's not a bad idea to check the germination before you plant. Because if the germination rate is poor, a lot of them won't grow. A lot of the hight depends on the variety of oats, some are a short plant and some are tall.
Also I would like it to be run through a fanning mill to avoid weed seeds.
If you buy certified seed you can select a variety that has the characteristics you desire.
Will you combine the oats or will chop for silage
Hoping to combine them.
Why do you roll the field after planting
It pushes the rocks down, and gives a better seed to soil contact.
Do you need that much tractor to pull the drill? I never got to visit my families farms early enough in spring to see a drill that size used but seems like it wouldn't be to heavy of a lift with the ground already worked up and all. Could Franklin pull the drill?
Those hills are steeper than they look and really sandy.
It was a pretty good workout for that tractor. With the sandy soil and the hills, I don't think Franklin would do it.
@@trinitydairy You think it's the 5 and a half horse difference or is the deere turned up?(is something i've heard people say about diesel engines). Or maybe diesel has the extra torque to pull the hills. I'll find a few acres to farm someday darn it, always learned better by watching others do than reading it in a book.
It's a combination of, more horsepower, torque, and weight.
Will you be making balage out of the oat crop?
Hopefully we'll be using it for grain and straw.
how many acres do you till for oats each year?
We only had 7 last year, but about 28 this year.
Alan, i have never seen a drill like that, how does the hoes raide up from those ropes and what are the two wheels forin the front?
The ropes trip a cam, that lifts and lowers the disc's, and those wheels are for adjusting the depth.
@@trinitydairy thanks!
👍👌❤️🇨🇦
