As a retired dairy farmer from Wisconsin, I understand much of what you do and enjoy watching your videos. I have been watching for quite a while. You and your dad are some hard working, and very smart at all the fixing and operating all your fine machinery. Good luck on a new season coming up. I will be watching all your videos as they come out. Thanks for what you do. George McPherson LaValle Wisconsin
My grandfather did the same thing with a marker about 7 years ago. Instead of barely missing the truck. He proceeded to drag the maker folded up down the side of his farm truck. He put a 3 inch cut down the entire side of that f250 ford. The truck was dragged about 6 feet from where he parked it. I seen the entire event from our other tractor as I was disking. He never even noticed that he hit the truck . He was 90 years old and still farming. Nice video stay safe and farm on my friends!

Brian's Farming Videos recommended checking out your garage tour and so glad he did. Not only was that a cool video but have been binging all your videos this weekend. You have a great family and are a great addition to the UA-cam farming channels.
Poor Dougo when it goes wrong it goes wrong big time. The Big Sweed is getting the hang of things slowly but surly. Great video Chet and team work on Larson Farms.
It nice to see you can laugh about breakdown and accidents that break things instead of getting upset. Our farming days were not like that at all. Was my grandmothers farm that my uncle was in charge of everything. Was a big man, about 270 and 6 ft 3 in and as mean as they come. He never praised or said good job in his life to anyone within the family. It's the reason I didn't stay on the dairy, other wise I would be just northeast of you all probably right now.
“Everything got serviced minus that old disk that we hardly use” fast forward a few episodes, darn thing blew a wheel bearing and had to run down a wheel. Happens every time. You guys are great. Thanks for taking us along
Dougo is hilarious, I don’t know if I can talk about it yet.😂😂. The millennial farmer would go up to it and poke it with his finger and ask are you ok?
Was planting from one side of a field while another worked from the other side. It was probably 11pm when we are both out of seed in the middle of the field with two pass left between us. The guy driving the pickup with the seed flies up to the other guy first and low and behold he's left the marker arm down. Pickup runs right into and subsequently halfway over it. Truck now has a busted oil pan and the planter has a one less marker arm.
Perhaps you should have a saddle made for your Dad that way it would be more comfortable for both of you when you ride him ! Love the footage... good stuff.
I remember when red was International Harvester and green was JD oh how times have changed now red is Case and green is still JD I have a 1940 FarmAll A that's my baby I use it to cut grass and plow snow sometimes or hook the wagon to it and give the kids a hay ride. I love the old stuff less complicated the only thing wrong is no heat in the winter and no AC in the summer but I find if your cold in the winter your not working hard enough and same goes if you cool in the summer LOL!!
Never a dull moment with you guys. Thumbs up. I hope something will happen that is amusing beyond belief but that does not cost you bazillions of $$$$'s to fix. Praying for $6 Corn :)
I'm probably a few years older than your dad, I to have tweaked a few markers over the years...one for curtain there a lot tougher then a guy thinks when it comes time to tweak them back, it usually involves log chains,come along winches,and tractors.lol
We all have Dougo moments. Well actually, the sheer bolts break on the markers when I do it and then I put in a new one and never tell anyone. I have had to beat some parts back into submission, but good as new.
I remember my favorite Dougo quote " Why couldn't God make a man with three arms and a light in the center of his forehead " And thought how it would have helped with planter marker? And came up with this, three arms would have throw that marker farther in the weeds and out of site !
When using bigger welders on small stuff you need to use chill bars. Some metal backing to pull some of the meat out of the metal being welded. In some cases the thicker the better, i like to use similar metals, its all about heat control and clean metal especially with aluminum
Have you done an equipment tour or history or your farm video? That's be extremely intresting... Can I ask how many acres you're running. All the equipment.makes.me.think close to 5000
Ok. I finally have some idea why yinz guys are in love with line pliers. I was shocked , simply shocked at the amount of soil still on the cultivator after it was pronounced ready to go! Is there slippage in the Larson high standards of what constitutes clean? “You broke it. I seen you. You broke it. I’m tellin’!”
Chet is their away to build a awning over the top of the equipment you just cleaned out from snow? Dougo you always teach your boy’s to raise the makers up not leave them done an try to get out😅😅😅😅😅. 🎉
Dougo we all mess up lol. I've done it before. I ripped the marker off the planter too. Wasn't a good night. I finished planting that 80 acres with one marker. Only took twice as long an before auto steering
Great video Chet - love the interaction with your dad (Dougo) and all the other cast members😊 BTW What do you use the hog buildings for now? And look at your audio (microphone) some issues, where it has dropouts, could be a faulty minijack plug ☹
I've lived in Atlanta all 24 years of my life and I am amazed all the farm stuff I not only never seen but didn't know even existed lol, love these videos , I love you guys lol.
Haha You and your dad crack me up!😂 Tell him thats a "Wonderful" Weld! on that beautiful shelf he made!!😆 Sell it for BIG BUCKS!$$👍😂 Just Jackin! Good Vid Bro!
Your Dad and you remind me of a farmer I work for back in School this would be back in the 70s. Your dad has the same temperament that Bob had who I work for. He had younger kids but they were too young to work in the farm and since he was a friend he hired me to be his swamper. As much as I hate to admit it we had as many activities that you and your dad I remember the first time he got a 4X4 pickup. We both that we were is Hog Heaven because we didn't have to slam through mud holes and could drive normal while in the pastures. That's why I enjoying your channel so much you all remind me of Bob and myself when I was in high school. As long as no one gets hurt everything will be okay He's the one that taught me that a hamburger is the perfect meal. He told me when you eat a hamburger you get your salad that you could lettuce with the dressing pictures of mayonnaise or mustard did you get your pickles and onions tomato your meat and bread he said if you think about it there's no reason to eat anything else but a hamburger I don't know how many times I told my kids the same thing. So I'll be safe and have fun
Hey Larson Farms, great Videos you are producing there! Keep up the good work! I would have one wish though. Could you do a equipment Tour Video in the Future? Where you explain what you do with the different Traktors? I think there are more people like me how have some questions there. Like why you have 3 Qadtrac's is there a reason why you use Quadtrac's and not John Deere 9RX ? Or why do you have one cat and one John Deere ? Why not 2 Deer's or 2 Cat's. And maybe more Information about yor Fram wich crops are you producing? And why do you have a dozer and a Excavator ( second business ?) And so on and so forth Anyway greetings from Germany See you in the next one..
At 5:32ish would it be less of a challenge if you had a Challenger tractor? Do you have a grapple for the BobCat it makes things easier to grasp air impregnated solid water At 12:27ish no longer straight any more. Is that a problem? isn’t it at the Minneapolis Airport was where the foot tapping Congressman or Senator from AK got caught in the bathroom trying to tap something I forgetted lovin’ your videos from Krapramento, California the Krapitol/Krapital Hey do you know Mark? I was in the Navy with him he was from Minneapolis/St.Paul. How many Mark’s can the be in Minnesota?
OK..... name ONE other ag channel on You Tube with sound effects, especially kids cheering when something goes right.....The MOST entertaining ag video on the Tube....👌😎👀🤷♀️
You never lived until you get done with lunch and you have to lodge a John Deere disc out of a power pole! Wedged into two of them and luckily the kid that did it was family! I believe the tractor was an IH 1066?
Come harvest season or earlier, I want a job on your farm! Just turned 33 I’m from Washington state and I’m wanting to trade running yellow John Deere’s to green ones. Please let me know how to apply or if even hiring. I would be a great hand to have and I have a couple years combining on a farm doing grass seed. Thanks no Facebook that’s why I posted here.
The closet isn't big enough if you put all the unwanted salesmen in it. Why don't you have a larger corn header for the S790? On that planter marker, a good welder could cut out those 2 bad kinks by where it fastens to the planter, and then weld it all back up, as good or better than new!
Well I've done some unspeakable things to my Rogator sprayer wings with a 1 ton big bale in a circle corner and a new john deere sprayer wing and a field corner marker made out of 5 inch buried well casing hidden in the weeds , "stuff" happens
To bad I’m in Ohio I have the exact same planter and just took the markers off and replaced them with weights. Just laying out in the weeds waiting for a new home
You and you fathers relationship is what makes this channel so great!
You are very blessed to be able to work with your Dad.. beautiful farm, awesome videos
If you're not doing anything nothing breaks. Keep sending it Dougo!
As a retired dairy farmer from Wisconsin, I understand much of what you do and enjoy watching your videos. I have been watching for quite a while.

A story to tell for generations to come.
think every farm have one of then my great-great-grandfather has destroyed more of them yea he finally destroyed the machine itself the only tree for mile lol turning around and hit the tree hard the tree fill on the tractor too we parted out with of them from that we can make money in use parts 15 years oh so we build a shop there to help out taking parts off of the machinery we get in I was a very young boy than to
it's your downtime and your wages in the fall harvest chains are the cheaps way out to repair when you start to move the chain tension to tighten the chain up just get it over with and shoot your self in the foot question would your I know I would not want to it does hurt a lot I was very lucky I never lost it, shooting gofer my brother hand me a loaded gun and the lock was not on
change of the chain before it costs money we do every couple year we buy chain at the commercial bearing retailer at half piece for the same chain and chain links too they do sell sprocket of very kind make any size belts to we get them there to the same thing start to toughen them up it time for to change them out when you doing the tighten pull more wear in the chains and the sprockets and now wearing the sprockets out some as a belts and a pulley sorry you just throwing your money away when you do that I sorry learn from your mistakes lose year the first time my grandfather had corn we had someone take it off for use a farmer traded use for 5 of the long haul trucks and the contracts we had for his land, not the farmyard he wanted
the question everyone is asking use are we planting corn this year well if we do hundreds of farmers around would too they well know if we did when it time to plant we are hiring the corn out to be planted my grandfather and my dad gone to the states to look at corn planters and truck the was rolled over information on the truck was very wrong they when out and bought a new tow truck 2 year of looking it's over now
pincushion my uncle said he loves the states special the south parts when the sun it at people look twice when the is him the porcupine love have a shower every sound night he wants one, my aunt has trained them an animal well
she has a suit and a tie or for the girls a dress lol she dresses her skunks up and to them to do there banking in town she has allowances for them lol spoiled rotten animals
well it up to yourself in what you want to do anyways do the math now how much more will it cost you down the road maybe write what it would cost this year and couple years down the road it cost
I have just destroyed the front of my Ute with a marker What a day
Brian's Farming Videos recommended checking out your garage tour and so glad he did. Not only was that a cool video but have been binging all your videos this weekend. You have a great family and are a great addition to the UA-cam farming channels.
I always get a big chuckle when I see one on a vehicle, but two thumbs up for putting that bumper sticker on your old shop door; it made my day.
Great video. I love the interaction between you & your Dad. Makes me think of the times my Dad & I had on the farm. Thanks for the video.
Poor Dougo when it goes wrong it goes wrong big time. The Big Sweed is getting the hang of things slowly but surly. Great video Chet and team work on Larson Farms.

“Everything got serviced minus that old disk that we hardly use” fast forward a few episodes, darn thing blew a wheel bearing and had to run down a wheel. Happens every time. You guys are great. Thanks for taking us along
What a beautiful shop you guy's put together, great job.
I was binge watching your harvest videos and was on the one dougo breaks the steering wheel when this came out! Good vid as always keep it up!
Broke the steering wheel ?? Hmmm.. I thought Dougo told us that he just slightly ReAlligned that steering wheel.
Hmmmmmmmm....
Please cherish the time you have with you father. I am 55 and worked with mine all my life. He passed in 1996. I miss him everyday.
Dougo is hilarious, I don’t know if I can talk about it yet.😂😂. The millennial farmer would go up to it and poke it with his finger and ask are you ok?
Great video
Happens to us all. Brings back memories of my own "marker failing."
Was planting from one side of a field while another worked from the other side. It was probably 11pm when we are both out of seed in the middle of the field with two pass left between us. The guy driving the pickup with the seed flies up to the other guy first and low and behold he's left the marker arm down. Pickup runs right into and subsequently halfway over it. Truck now has a busted oil pan and the planter has a one less marker arm.
Liked the info concerning corn head. Sure is expense equipment. Great video.
Gotta love those drums popping. Happens at my work all the time, scares the crap outta me.
Perhaps you should have a saddle made for your Dad that way it would be more comfortable for both of you when you ride him ! Love the footage... good stuff.
Love it Boys.
Keep l'm coming.
Great video. Thanks.
I'm glad I don't have the stress that Dougo has. You do have a nice shop.
I agree, they have a beautiful Farm and seem like great people but good lord, I couldn't live with the stress from the debt they've got to have.
I enjoy all your vids and keep them coming. Any timeline photos of the farm from the beginnings to today.
Glad our Case has breakaways. Pin shearing are a pain though.
Great story. Love the struggle bus.
Nice Video !!!!
Good Luck on the Farm
Dougo keeps his calm....even whne Chet is goading him...a bit
Love those types of stories 😂
Why does everything happen to Dougo , Great videos stay safe take care.
I remember when red was International Harvester and green was JD oh how times have changed now red is Case and green is still JD I have a 1940 FarmAll A that's my baby I use it to cut grass and plow snow sometimes or hook the wagon to it and give the kids a hay ride. I love the old stuff less complicated the only thing wrong is no heat in the winter and no AC in the summer but I find if your cold in the winter your not working hard enough and same goes if you cool in the summer LOL!!
It's where we put annoying salesmen 😂😂 that got me good, go on dougo 💪🤣
Never a dull moment with you guys. Thumbs up. I hope something will happen that is amusing beyond belief but that does not cost you bazillions of $$$$'s to fix. Praying for $6 Corn :)
Your sound effects cracks me up Chet lol
I'm probably a few years older than your dad, I to have tweaked a few markers over the years...one for curtain there a lot tougher then a guy thinks when it comes time to tweak them back, it usually involves log chains,come along winches,and tractors.lol

Doug o weld that aluminium down hill real fast it works....along as your not over stressing the weld....great looking shop
I remember my favorite Dougo quote " Why couldn't God make a man with three arms and a light in the center of his forehead " And thought how it would have helped with planter marker? And came up with this, three arms would have throw that marker farther in the weeds and out of site !
Salfords are awesome Canadian made love ours
When using bigger welders on small stuff you need to use chill bars. Some metal backing to pull some of the meat out of the metal being welded. In some cases the thicker the better, i like to use similar metals, its all about heat control and clean metal especially with aluminum
love the kids cheering
Nice vlog, regards from Poland!!!💪😎
*CHET CHET CHET* Ok I 've nothing more to say, other then Nifty Vid my Dude!
that is how the weather is here in the weather
Have you done an equipment tour or history or your farm video? That's be extremely intresting... Can I ask how many acres you're running. All the equipment.makes.me.think close to 5000

😂😂👍
I think the aluminum shelf is great. It's worth money cause it was made at Larson farms. I would buy it
Chet is their away to build a awning over the top of the equipment you just cleaned out from snow? Dougo you always teach your boy’s to raise the makers up not leave them done an try to get out😅😅😅😅😅. 🎉
Sorry for the loss of your marker.
Have you had anymore problems with the marker before the big incident? Looking at buying a db60 and I’m nervous about the markers.
Dougo we all mess up lol. I've done it before. I ripped the marker off the planter too. Wasn't a good night. I finished planting that 80 acres with one marker. Only took twice as long an before auto steering
Hey Chet! What does the Terra Gator do?
Great video Chet - love the interaction with your dad (Dougo) and all the other cast members😊 BTW What do you use the hog buildings for now? And look at your audio (microphone) some issues, where it has dropouts, could be a faulty minijack plug ☹
God you guys are great. Just knew the steering wheel was coming up. Lol
I thought I was the only one that does stuff like that!!
It's a balmy 65 degrees in North Texas today. I'll see what I can do to send some of it your way cause it looks WAY TOO COLD there! LOL
I've lived in Atlanta all 24 years of my life and I am amazed all the farm stuff I not only never seen but didn't know even existed lol, love these videos , I love you guys lol.
Haha You and your dad crack me up!😂 Tell him thats a "Wonderful" Weld! on that beautiful shelf he made!!😆 Sell it for BIG BUCKS!$$👍😂 Just Jackin! Good Vid Bro!
Doug O, thing's happen.
That welding here in Australia we call that a bird shit weld . Instead of being a nice long weld its all nobbly ...good one Dougo ...lol lol
sorry winter
Dougo it was just another bad day at the office
My uncle did something very similar to the marker on our db44...
My uncle mills all the parts for salford machinery. They are 2 km from where I live.
Your Dad and you remind me of a farmer I work for back in School this would be back in the 70s. Your dad has the same temperament that Bob had who I work for.

👍👍
Yes
Does Erik still believe it is red leave it in the shed?
I am laughing so hard, side is hurting!
Is that steering wheel to come up in every video hereafter??
i hereby christen thee DOUGO THE DESTRUCTOR
Hey Larson Farms, great Videos you are producing there! Keep up the good work! I would have one wish though. Could you do a equipment Tour Video in the Future? Where you explain what you do with the different Traktors? I think there are more people like me how have some questions there.

And maybe more Information about yor Fram wich crops are you producing? And why do you have a dozer and a Excavator ( second business ?)
And so on and so forth
Anyway greetings from Germany See you in the next one..
I might be doing one this spring when everything is hooked up.
I love stories
What would dougo do without his diamond plate
At 5:32ish would it be less of a challenge if you had a Challenger tractor?
Do you have a grapple for the BobCat it makes things easier to grasp air impregnated solid water
At 12:27ish no longer straight any more. Is that a problem? isn’t it at the Minneapolis Airport was where the foot tapping Congressman or Senator from AK got caught in the bathroom trying to tap something
I forgetted lovin’ your videos from Krapramento, California the Krapitol/Krapital
Hey do you know Mark? I was in the Navy with him he was from Minneapolis/St.Paul. How many Mark’s can the be in Minnesota?
Tell Dad that sometimes bad things happen to good people!!
You should do some...Morning feeding and other stuff live streams!
OK..... name ONE other ag channel on You Tube with sound effects, especially kids cheering when something goes right.....The MOST entertaining ag video on the Tube....👌😎👀🤷♀️
Colethecornstar
Its a horrible sound effect!
That's also Colethecornstar
You never lived until you get done with lunch and you have to lodge a John Deere disc out of a power pole! Wedged into two of them and luckily the kid that did it was family! I believe the tractor was an IH 1066?
Please share information about Larson Farm relationship with Erik. Is he relative, friend, full time employee, etc.
Friend and full time guy.
He seems to be a nice guy and hard worker.
Soak those chains in a max before storage every winter and I garenty they will last 4x as long
You Guys need a good Tig Welder for your stainless and Aluminium welding .
🙌
My father got my dual wheels with his marker arm once I was savage about it 😂
Its going to be hilarious this spring , watching all the whoops happening
Eric just did flopped the feeder chains on your latest video
that sledgehammer sounded like a gun
One reason why I like gps/ autosteer. Planter markers don't get wrecked cause we don't use them. Especially with a 24 row😎
WOW WOW WOW! Two videos in a row.... ahahaha
Come harvest season or earlier, I want a job on your farm! Just turned 33 I’m from Washington state and I’m wanting to trade running yellow John Deere’s to green ones. Please let me know how to apply or if even hiring. I would be a great hand to have and I have a couple years combining on a farm doing grass seed. Thanks no Facebook that’s why I posted here.
As of now we have the crew we need but never know.
Do you have any possums for pets possums are awesome
What’s wrong with the pro 700 monitor? We find them just perfect
Nick Allan once you run John Deere’s screen the pro 700 is not user friendly at all
Larson Farms never used the new 4600 from jd so I don’t have a great comparison I guess
Most unfortunate accident. Sure can't wait till it thaws and dries out so spring tillage and planting can begin.
Not sure if it was me or not but I think the camera was having some problems this video
Thought you were gonna say there at the end like and subscribe and don’t rip any steering wheels off. Lmao. That would of been great
The closet isn't big enough if you put all the unwanted salesmen in it. Why don't you have a larger corn header for the S790? On that planter marker, a good welder could cut out those 2 bad kinks by where it fastens to the planter, and then weld it all back up, as good or better than new!
Pliers, the best hammer you’ll ever carry
Great story. Good for a laugh. I'm sure doug-o may not find it so funny still. As they say SH@# happens
Stuff happens!
Well I've done some unspeakable things to my Rogator sprayer wings with a 1 ton big bale in a circle corner and a new john deere sprayer wing and a field corner marker made out of 5 inch buried well casing hidden in the weeds , "stuff" happens
To bad I’m in Ohio I have the exact same planter and just took the markers off and replaced them with weights. Just laying out in the weeds waiting for a new home
