Drone footage is the best. Not much noise, so very peaceful too watch. Uncle Dave is in his element helping. Poor Ruby. Also nice to see the bros together working!
You should write a children's book based on the tractors with names. Ruby gets sick and all the other tractors pitch in to get the chores done till Ruby gets better!
Just a safety suggestion. The gentleman working around the wagon pto and the blower should have his shirt tucked in. Even though there are pto sheilds they have been known to fail. Our neighbour almost lost his arm because a sheid failed.
@@HollcanaFarm I am wondering where you are located(approximately) and what your prefix is. Ours was Eaglebrook Holsteins. South of Peterborough Ontario
@@david19659 We are just overwhelmed with time spent adjusting in the new barn. I hope to get a video out soon. We are fine but really tired. Thanks for your concern!
@@user-snowman5 It seems to be working for us. The lanes are set up for it perfectly. Always on gravel when full. I can see where it wouldn't work for most people.
How has your yield been so far this fall 2024? Initiatives including waving (canceling) property taxes for farmers that own less than 1,000 acres should be put in place; this would decrease inputs and there fore help with their overhead. This must be instituted as small farmers (defined as anything less than 1,000 acres totals) will be struggling this year to turn a profit, most corn farmers are looking a $1.00 per acre loss this year, extremely tragic. How are you fairing / projected to fair after all inputs? Curious what your net profit per acre will be this year. Thank you for what you do!! -October 13, 2024
@@drdwgmd14 We are fortunate because we don't have to sell our crop. We can feed it to the cows and we have a quota system for milk sales. It does not look good for those selling crops. The smaller farmers don't get many breaks and any help from the government seems to help the bigger farmers more. A few years ago there was government money for new builds especially if it was going to be more efficient but we were too late to get that help.
@@HollcanaFarm and that right there is the problem what they do is incentivize the farmers to spend more money and give back more money that should not be the way it goes what they need to do is incentivize ways to save money at baseline without having you you guys to spend more money or give more taxpayer money back because that doesn’t help anyone.

These fruits are sure to attract many customers.
Chopping corn always the best time of year. That is a sweet case tractor, sorry for the breakdown with it.
@@bonniehibma3580 I know I really felt bad for Ruby!
Cool drone shots of the harvest!

@@MarkEagleson You are right, we noticed that in the video too. I will get after him. We know people who have been badly hurt that way too.

How many cows do you milk is it going to be more in the new barn
@@matthewzuck287 We have stalls for 50 cows in the old barn but sometimes they are used by close up cows. We hope to milk 60 cows in the new barn.
