    Been a long time since we grew oats but we used to plant our oats and an alfalfa seeds at the same time. When we harvested it was direct cut. Then we stored it in a granary in our bank barn. Some of it was mixed in the cow feed for about 40 milk cows and the rest was mixed with whole shelled corn for 300 ewes and their lambs.

    I still have some vague memories of my aunt's farm at harvest time. The grain was dried in sheeves made into stooks. They used pitch forks to pitch the sheeves into a horse drawn wagon and hauled it into the yard where thete was a tractor and a long twisted belt running to a thrashing machine that did the work of the combine today.
    It was so loud and they were always concerned that something would catch fire. It was hard work but a good time reaping the rewards of a season.
    Farming has come a long way.
    Thanks for growing my food, man. You rock!

    And thanks to you both
    for taking us to Farming 'school'.
    You guys sure know your stuff,
    and you work real hard too...
    To bring in those crops that feed me 'n you.
    I'm an ol' city girl,
    but the country life is neat.
    And all the work you guys do helps me buy my meat.
    The grocery store sells it,
    But you are the kind
    that brings to the table
    what I'm trying to find.
    Meat and wheat products,
    make great meals for me,
    But that combine helps you feed
    The livestock we see.
    Thanks for the lessons, Quick!
    It's comforting to know.
    That we're in good hands
    of our farmers who sow.

    The kids have the farm now and do absolutely nothing with the land. They got goats and chickens right off the bat. The goats got sick and they got tired of gathering eggs so the chicken started eating them. Damn kids! Great video!
    P.S. I was 14 when my daddy put me in a semi with two grain carts or doubles. I was taught how to drive at 12 on our 2 and a half ton trucks. I loved farming and gardening. Not for everybody, not my damn kids anyway! 😒
