Hey thanks for watching the video!
Growing up on a dairy farm in the 50s and 60s, I read the magazine regularly. Nice to hear they are still operating, and even nicer to get a tour of the farm.
Pp😮
The knowledge and experience you gain yourself doing these tours must be priceless. Thanks for sharing.
I like when you do these tours, Jan. This is a wonderful, historic farm. Good work. Keep these videos coming. FIVE STARS for this one.
Thanks for the high praise! I’ll keep them coming!
@@saskdutchkidHello sir I am interested in working in the farm
Great video Ian. You always have amazing footage and you gave lots of the historical information on the Hoards Farm. Like you, I can always remember the Hoards Dairyman magazine coming every month. I always look forward to your videos!
Does the Hoard's Dairyman still exist?
Really super clean! And runs like a well oiled machine.😊
Glad to welcome you to Wisconsin, Jan, glad to see you on another interesting and informative tour.
When I was in tech school for dairy management about 10 years ago we toured the hoards farm. It was a really cool tour.
Thanks to this gentleman for showing their barn. Looks Perfect 👍👍
Jerseys have the most beautiful eyes. Robots are amazing.
Thank you, Jan. I too read Hoard’s Dairyman from cover to cover up to my 20’s when I left the farm. The new barn and robots are truly amazing. Management systems change a lot when milking twice or three times a day aren’t the focus of activity.
Beautiful place. Nice to see the evolution of dairy all in one place. Thanks for a nice, educational video.
Those cows are beautiful
Great Video thank's for sharing.
What a beautiful place... And the cows are gorgeous..!!!! Ty for inviting us along with you!!!🙏❤️🇺🇲
Thanks for taking the time to show other dairy’s Jan. Hope you’re having a great year.
Thanks for taking us along on your tour, always great to see how others do it.
Great tour, thanks for taking us along, Josh.
Lovely top lines on the cows.
so interesting to see different setup's
Cows are looking good,also clean
A great tour
Never seen a farm so clean. Love it. Thank you for the video. ❤❤❤
Great video. Thank you guys
Got the magazine back in the 1980's..Enjoyed very much.
Thank you so much, it has been awhile since I have been there. It is wonderful that you took the time to show us the farm even though you don't have a similar set up
Never knew about this aspect of the magazine. Only wish my dad was still around, would love to take him for a visit. The magazine came to our home every month since the fifties until he retired.
The barn looks really European. It is always impressive to see the DeLaval VMS300 in action, how fast it is compared to its predecessor. I milked with a VMS from 2011 for seven years, but it looks like it is twenty years older. Greetings from Germany, David
Very good tour Jan ! Way to go !!! Thank you !!!
Great tour. Thanks😊
Love those cows! Those are notoriously gentle and high butterfat from the them.
Thank you for sharing
AWESOME!
Farm tours are great!
The animals are beautiful
Thanks so much for the interesting video. All your videos are interesting but it is nice to see how other farms operate and different cow breeds.
Very interesting thanks for sharing 😊
That robot was pretty kewl. Quite the history on that farm.
That is so cool.
Cow just wearing the brush like a hat 4:27 😂
Great video Ian. You always have amazing footage and you gave lots of the historical information on the Hoards Farm. Like you, I can always remember the Hoards Dairyman magazine coming every month. I always look forward to your videos! áef
I laughed at the cow standing with the brush on her head, having her zen moment.
Great Video, interesting that it started with a mans focus on alfalfa, thanks for sharing
It's so cool that you visit the state that I live in.
Very interesting
Lol...that cow just standing there with the brush on her head ! Looks like she's waiting for it to start up 😆
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
Hey Jan. Beautiful ladies. So your next pet is going to be a Guernsey??? 😊😂
Fun to see how far the hoards dairyman makes it considering we only live about 10 minutes away from the hoards farm and I drive past it to go to the store.
Love the color of the cows nice brown
That milker is amazing and impressive!!
That's a beautiful barn. You should come to Texas and show off one down here.
Awesome video, I remember my grandpa having Guernseys 35 years ago
I had a small MN dairy(40 cows) in the 70's/80's and couldn't wait until my Hoard's Dairyman came each month. In Fact in 1986 we hosted the MN Holstein Convention in our county and were able to get the Vet that wrote for Hoard's to be out featured banquet speaker(can't remember his name) and he was awesomel We were able to have a registered consignment sale inside the Radisson Hotel in their banquet facility, pretty amazing.
Wow, takes me back a few yrs. I went on a trip to wisconsin from the uk, 1985, I managed the reaseheath college herd with another guy and was asked if I wanted to go with a bunch of students. We went to Hoards, the old buildings were the set up then, tied in stalls, young stock in small shitty pens-they harvested the whole maize cobs, air dried them in wire tall cages for feeding and baled the rest of the maize plant for bedding, hence why the pens were shitty. We went into the old office, where the old guy who was in charge of the magazine talked the legs off us, literally. Very interesting visit back then. Come a long way.
Great Video!!!
Very cool! I love seeing local guys on UA-cam. And Guernsey cows is very neat. Im a little bit northeast of Fort, in Oconomowoc area. You should check out Labelle Creamery/koepke farm. Theres also Macfarlands in Watertown and another big dairy in Ixonia. All not too far from here.
Your place always feels like home but it’s always interesting when you visit other farms
Sweet! The robot barn, AI milk....
Great video brother from the imperial county ca 🚜🚜🇺🇲🇺🇲🎃🎃
Nice❤
the source of the best ice cream
Very informative video
👍👍🙏
Been there multiple times really is a cool place
Never realized Hoards Dairymen had an actual farm! 🤯🤯🤯
Very cool seeing how other fams do things. Have you thought about implementing any of the things you see at the farms you visit at your farm? Thanks for the video.
❤❤❤❤❤
You dont see this breed that often. When I was a kid, the dairy down the street used only Guernseys.
Nice well looked after cows, would be nice to get the roofs fixed on the old barns and be able to tour them as well to see the progress if the farms milking equipment
Jersey cows cool hardly anyone milk them cows . That is the kind of Jersey we milk on our 600 acre dairy farm . Have you ever had a cow kick any of the cups off utters? And what do you do to keep them from kicking?Do you get more milk with Jersey cows ? What do you do with the calves that our born? Do you groom the hoofs on all the cattle and give them shots and breed the cows?
It’s a beautiful place Jason thank you for letting Jan bring uses along to see your farm and how you do things. Too bad it was a short video would like to see more.
Awesome, I live just out of Fort Atkinson and have watched your channel for years! Too bad you didn’t do a meet up at while in WI.
You should have went into the old facility them moved up to the new robot facility. Good video
That poor tour guide looked exhausted. Hope he's getting some rest!
🇨🇦👍
Jan’ thank you bro’ welcome to AMERICA 🇺🇸🙏 🇨🇦 GREAT video ROBOTIC’S they are something else. 😊
I used to help my uncle on his Guensey farm. I read a lot of the Hoards Dairyman. Didn't they also have a judging competition in the magazine?
👍
Guernsey 's have big milk bags. What are those big buckets doing you see them all over.? Did they have any male calves and what do they do with them?
Jan would have loved to see how the liquid manure is handled with the sand. Still great video
👍👌❤🇨🇦
Love it when you do a farm tour. Do they sell Guernsey bulls to ai ?
I’m curious to know what kind of collar & device each cow is wearing around their necks. Are they being computer tracked for their daily output, etc? Thanks.
Another big dairy operation just out side of fort Atkinson is kutz dairy farm you should walk through next time your in Wisconsin it’s not to far from this farm
Jan can you please do a video on the different breeds of cows and why you guys milk the breed of cows you have
Just read up on them they have their own cheese also and some of their milk goes to another cheese factory.
You're out doing these farm tours you should think about doing one with the 10th Generation dairyman that would be a pretty cool collab
Did you ask him, why Guernseys? My great grandparents were immigrants from Germany and had a dairy farm in Wisconsin (he had Holsteins).
So nice farm and video. Was it redholstein in the dairy cow heard? Änd a Couples of jerseys! I didin't hear that be Said in the first of the video!
Okay. Come on. That's a cow church. Yes. I read Hoard's Dairyman as a kid. I'm just too old and bitter to buy that, I guess. God bless 'em.
How do the cows know when its time to get milk
I think the cows choose themselves besides the cows who are too late and have to be fetched to be brought there by the farmer. Most cows on places I worked at were going there themselves at their own chosen time so you don't have to bring them but new cows may need to learn at first but they often get feed during milking as encouragement and most cows want to be milked when their udders are full and go there when they please.
🇨🇦🐄🐂🐂🐂🐂🇺🇲👍
Does someone have to Monitor the Robots?
Jason has gotten a lot older since I saw him last.
4000 people a big city ?😅
Jan it is probably indicative of how remote your place is if you think a village of 4000 people is a city, this side of the world we wouldn’t even call it a town for the most part, we farm on the edge of a city ( population 1.5 million) and it’s becoming more and more difficult but we were miles away from the city when I was a kid now we are in the double decker bus zone and have traffic lights on our street and tens of thousands of experts who spend their time ringing the dept of agriculture or cruelty to animals because they know much better than us how to manage cattle, just to let you understand how ridiculous it has become we insisted that the department guy who was coming to respond to the phone call ( it’s mandatory they have to) left a pair of wellies here for disease control reasons same with the cruelty guy but he usually just rings to get the story. To give you an idea of what we get the cruelty guy rang on Friday because they had a report of a cow with a huge bloody abscess in our field in obvious distress and finding it difficult to get up ( some very knowledgeable and observant lady who was sitting at the traffic lights) the cow was calving! Love the videos.
Jan lives outside of a town of less than 700 people. Their nearby city of Saskatoon has less than 270,000 people. According to Census, from 1910 to 2020 any urban area with more than 2,500 people was considered a city. However as of 2020 that number was changed to 5,000 people, or 2,000 homes.
@@MellowYe77ow thanks for that mellow yellow ( cool handle by the way) we have a bit different way of classifying what a town village hamlet and city are . Most of our classifications are probably more for historical reasons than actual sizes but we do have smaller cities as well pop. 50,000 or so actually probably more now but not huge and we have towns that are bigger than that but still towns and hamlets are almost always very small pop. Less than 100, villages are from there to 5000 plus again nothing is fixed in stone because they were designated as a village, town or city up to 1000 years ago and a lot can change in 1000 years.
this was obviously filmed in summer
So?
Do these cows ever get to feel real grass under their hooves? Why can't the mothers nurse their babies? Taking the babies away makes the mothers sad. What happens to male calves?
Hi brother, how are you brother? I want to go to America as a farm worker. If your village needs a caretaker or someone to help with the farm, please let me know. I am a mini from Bangladesh. I am a Bangladeshi.
Brother, if you need any workers, please let me know. I want to work in your frame. If you hire me, I know how to drive. I can drive a car or you can make me work as a cleaner.
