@@mikemitchell2554 No. The farm I worked at Grand Coulee had a small cleaning plant and it was set up to clean the chickpeas and then size them into separate bins. We'd then bag them and ship them out by container. I did the receiving and grading (plus lots more...it's a farm 😉).
Mike Mitchell congrats on 70k mike, I love watching ur videos because its someone to relate to when it comes to farming. I’m a 14 year old son of a farming and I enjoy helping out on the farm and can’t wait to take over the 3000 acre farm in central North Dakota
Open like a sausage😂😂 and then that’s a bad day!!!! You have some of the best lines in videos,, I laugh my ass off all the time. Happy and safe harvest
Love the "wind" sound effects in your intro--perfect! haha Thanks for posting Mike, really enjoy your content. I don't mind the wind noise, we have lots of wind across the border as well!
Another very interesting video with appreciated details on the bagging of last years chickpeas. In previous bagging video you explained the why already in excellent way. Thanks Mike as always 👌👍
I just had a flashback to my childhood, within seconds of your video starting, where i was able to see ,FOR THE 1ST TIME IN MY LIFE , the entire TV screen without my moms crochet doilies covering the top of it after i moved to my own place. I bet you were able to happily watch the entire screen of your TV without obstructions before you got married 😁
Another awesome video Mike lol are you the comedian of the family I just love the way you us a sense of humor with everything lol 😂 and with that tarp in high wind deal I have knocked my self clean out twice when the took the handle out of my hand and spun it on me you would have thought one was enough but no I did it twice once on the wheat harvest in Oklahoma and once at Jes Farms when I worked there lol so I know what wind can do with a tarp on a hopper bottom them bags are heavy man we used a string line on ours that was the way they wanted it we had some pretty looking straight lines could never figure out why we did that lol 😂 but that’s the way Scott wanted them looking forward to ya next video Mike productions do such an awesome job 👍👍👍
It's never a dull day on the farm especially when mike's zippin around. Love the videos mike. Not to knock the 516 but, why not a burt on the bagger? Pto issue 540 vs 1000? That 16" auger would grunt if plugged so why not a burt on the bagger haha. A few bins would cover the cost of 516 ;) lol
Good question.. Because typically the bagger follows us around and needs to be able to move all over the country And keep up with the combines. And then when we are bagging, the guy doing it has A/C and is out of the dust. 😂 The 516 is alot nicer to spend your 14hrs vs the Bert, crazy I know!
Any word from the dealer about the overheating issue on the Fendt? Just about the same process and problems when we bagged corn silage for the cows. We had to unload the bags with a skid steer into the feed wagon it was not very fun at times mud and ruts after the mud froze solid. We liked them though very little spoilage seems as though we didn’t have any waste. Thanks Mike and team stay safe.
As a safety person I have cover my eyes and peek out only occasionally with some of your videos. As a mama I just want to scream "you be careful up there!!" 😊
7:30 dude in the tractor frantically on the radio talkin to the truck... ''IS MIKE ON THE GROUND? OR STILL ON THE TRAILER?? I LOST MIKE!!!!!!'' ...RADIO CRACKLES... ASHTON SAYS ''WHAT YOU MEAN YOU *LOST MIKE* !!!!!!!????????'' LOL HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA oh well prolly funnnier in my head than it really was lol
I still think they need to put a SHOP VAC attachment on the bagger / emptier machines that runs off the PTO ...... if this is a new idea, and they impliment it... ummm sure could use a ''inventors idea gratuity'' lol
@@mikemitchell2554 good... that's my mission... to make EVERYONE LAUGH and ''lighten up'' a little bit... not saying ''do not be serious'' but... people (more people that is) need to '' *light'n up a bit* '' and REMEMBER TO LAUGH!!!!!!! too many peeps have forgetton how to laugh?? well it sure seems like it anyhow ;) *GRAIN CART SURFING* score *holds up card* 8.5 !!!! :) lol
Okay Mr. Mike, we now need a tour and history of that sweet looking old Chevy pickup that doesn't have bed on the back :) What's it's name most importantly
Looks like this year's bag-site has much better drainage so you'll lose less grain or product to water pooling about the bottom of the bags after the Spring Thaw. You're able to use the elevator at Bracken to ship by rail, or have to road it to elevators in Climax, Shaunavon or Swift Current?
Mike ,looking at that incredible landscape have you ever thought on what your ancestors and the early settlers saw ,what hope and hardship they experienced
Would it be cost effective for you to have multiple bin sites spaced out around the farm to minimize hauling costs? granted i don't know how your system for selling grain works.
cool video Mike. Can you tell me what are the best LED light's that you use on your tractors. I would like something pretty good, only a 150 hp IH tractor. Many thank's for your video's as I really enjoy them. Thanks again.
Having fields 100 miles away?Jesus,and I thought me having to drive 10 kilometers to some of our fields was too much.I guess I'm not gonna complain about that anymore
Mike do you have that ability to almost sense (at least believe you can) the breaking point when running a piece of equipment? I feel I have that super power. Haha. FYI I gave it a nickname, I call it GO OR BLOW and you can use that phrase if you like I won't mind. Lol After all this time I finally found another SPAZ FARMER like me...brother??? 😄😄 Keep up the awesome job and hard work.
Everyone up north needs all those small bins? What's that for? I'll probably answer myself by watching the vid, But different fertilizerand all that?) We had to add Sulfur this year for this first time in 30 years. (we don't do bags, I'm just curious)
Great question.. But you don't want to do that.. 1: you want to point ur bags down hill for the water to exit.. 2: the extractor we use 50 remove the grain needs more room. And 3: snow will pile between them, so you want ot be able to get snow blower or loader or grader between the bags
I don't want to know what happens if that winch wire snaps when loading the new bag, looks a bit unsafe being around the rat trap unless it has some safety function stopping it from falling down again?
Very informative video. Honestly, I don’t mind the wind noise. You work in the wind, we share the experience.
Thank you Mike.
Thanks Mike!

the scale of your operation blows my mind.. if you're ever looking for someone with no experience feel free to reach out haha
That brings a whole new meaning to bagging your own grocery!! great vid!
That wind is sure a killer. I am so glad I am small and do not have to mess with those dam bags. I don't have enough help anyway! :)

Everything one always wanted to know about bags , thank you Mike 😀👍🏾🚜🇨🇦
Very good video thanks for the information on the bags
You need more grain bins, a whole city of them😀
Hey Mike, congrats with the 70k subs, ... don't worry about the video quality, .... as long I can see that 1050 on 1080p I'm a happy guy ... 😃
These videos work out perfectly u post them right before I go to school thank u
You may be a odd ball, but your videos with all the different angles are fanatic's. Keep up the fanatics work.

Well the wind will help clean the peas some more!! LOL!
Wow the the field looks rough the roll of the tractor was crazy
With the wind & pea dust someone is going to need a shower tonight 😂🚿🤣

Man, I watch you from the Europe and you are pretty awesome
Keep going
Hi from Sweden. Awesome video 👍🚜
How windy was it Mikie lol great video anyway-----when winds get that bad here in North Carolina they put a name on it and call it a hurricane
Hi Mike, Awesome view's. Is it possible to bag from left to right to get the bag's closer together.
Great video Mike, don't work to hard.
🎵 You must never pi........against the wind.
How about cake?

Mike ,looking at that incredible landscape have you ever thought on what your ancestors and the early settlers saw ,what hope and hardship they experienced
Yeah.. Quite often.. They would have it rough
I think you should build a big barn to store grain and machinery over the winter, 2in1😃. Enjoying all of your videos! Regards from south Sweden!
Storing grain in buildings is not as common in North America as it is in Europe. I’m not sure why though.
@@Jaxon-iu6vb Cole the cornstar Star does in Iowa welker farms does in Montana
I never said that no one does it, but it is a lot less common here.
@@Jaxon-iu6vb ok sorry
wow, first few minutes was a big bag of wind 🤣🤣🤣
great, thanks for sharing!
great video mike thanks
Liked, may I ask how many bushels those bags hold when properly filled?
Depends on the size of the bag, could be 10-18k
@@mikemitchell2554 I was referring to the bags you are filling in the video. 18k ?
I like the old truck
I HATE THE WIND. MIKE. I HATE IT!!! 🤪😜
Would it be cost effective for you to have multiple bin sites spaced out around the farm to minimize hauling costs? granted i don't know how your system for selling grain works.
It could be yes..
Hello from Houston Texas
This is for mike or anyone that knows, what happens after its in the bags and you sell the product. How do you haul it out of there?
First thing I noticed was the trident in the back ground
Oh yeah, update on that.. We kept it.. And are getting it all switched over to Raven
Raven is pretty well the best option for sprayers anyway, trimble is not that good with sprayers
Fendt traktors kick ass 😍
Muy buena maquina la akron. Bien argentina
cool video Mike. Can you tell me what are the best LED light's that you use on your tractors. I would like something pretty good, only a 150 hp IH tractor. Many thank's for your video's as I really enjoy them. Thanks again.
That high ware spot put heavy duty rubber on the inside and will last for a long time 👍
@@procrastinationTime try WG3500 RED RUBBER SHEETING last a good while 👍
Mik i remember yesterday you have 16k subscribers 😂😂
Having fields 100 miles away?Jesus,and I thought me having to drive 10 kilometers to some of our fields was too much.I guess I'm not gonna complain about that anymore
About costs a bin is almost forever bags are one time use. Are they recycled
Mike do you have that ability to almost sense (at least believe you can) the breaking point when running a piece of equipment? I feel I have that super power. Haha. FYI I gave it a nickname, I call it GO OR BLOW and you can use that phrase if you like I won't mind. Lol After all this time I finally found another SPAZ FARMER like me...brother??? 😄😄 Keep up the awesome job and hard work.
I expected as allways getter done Mike.
What is your cracked percentage after removing from the bags?I would think it goes up with the extra moving of the crop
Everyone up north needs all those small bins? What's that for? I'll probably answer myself by watching the vid, But different fertilizerand all that?) We had to add Sulfur this year for this first time in 30 years. (we don't do bags, I'm just curious)
You need a 4 in 1 bucket would work good on the 915 loader
So,....it would hear me breaking wind? 😂😂😂
I guess you've answered this a thousand times, but do you reuse the bags or do you recycle them?
Love your videos! I'm new to your channel.
They are a one time use.. Then they get recycled ♻
try to align the bags with the projected wind direction then it wont drift between so simple or some of it
Voice over when editing or would that be too much extra work? Great vid & thanks for explaining what took place at the beginning. Cheers
Mike how often do you have to change the brake pads on those grain bagger?
Do you always do bags? Surely you will build more storage eventually?
Ackron lo mejor de mi país 😍🇦🇷
If you take one of the ties that come on the bag and tie the bag end closed like a bread bag then tuck the tie under the bag seals it nicely.
You know it is wild if you have to throw in a double “duper” in
Would a vac not work better for emptying the bag over the loader?
Hi Mike I'm wondering what the highest % of grain moister can you keep in those bags without going bad ?
We have had 18 in there
How long will the grain last in those bags?
If you filled from the other direction, wouldn't the grain cart be on the outside so you could eliminate the wasted space between bags?
Great question.. But you don't want to do that.. 1: you want to point ur bags down hill for the water to exit.. 2: the extractor we use 50 remove the grain needs more room. And 3: snow will pile between them, so you want ot be able to get snow blower or loader or grader between the bags
When do the peas go to market. When are they sold?
It's an open market.. Which means whenever you want sell - if you like the price.. To whom ever u want
Hi Mike do you think the new fendt 1167 is going to make an appearance on your farm next year?
We ll see I guess.. It would be cool to try it.. There's rumor of it making an appearance this fall 🤷♂️
You have hallaween stuff in your house already!
Haha Ashtyn likes her seasons haha 😂
Holy bags!
for the fields that you have 3 hours away do you haul the crop back or do you use a co-op?
Bag it and haul it
That is a mission I bet. A road train of combines a trucks will be awesome to see when you head down there
So Mike I have a question: what is PTO? Here in the States means Personal Time Off 😁
I don't want to know what happens if that winch wire snaps when loading the new bag, looks a bit unsafe being around the rat trap unless it has some safety function stopping it from falling down again?
So do you wish you had the bins back that you Tore down?
Haha actually no.. Not at all, the bags are far better than those bins
Why do you have a claas cap Mike?
Is there anything you'd like to tell us? :D
Any worries about extra compaction where you are filling them?
What’s the cost of the Akron bagger plus the cost the bag unloaded
Bag cost. Aprox 10 cents a bushel , thanks
When you're bagging 100 miles away do you pull the bagger there or do you have to haul it?
🤔 Prb both
Pull your inside fold out the front a bit to prevent bag from getting hung up👍
Looks cold up their, what temp is it? Not too long ago you were camping out and it was lightning at the lake.
How many bushel a second is the auger on the grain cart.
two things- why are your electric outlet's so high up the wall. then how do you get the stuff out of the bag's into truck's ect.
🤷♂️
When you have 5 feet of snow getting a shovel out to find an outlet isn’t a lot of fun. ;)
