    Kobey seems to be the most awesome dog! I love how he stands on the Big Bud's front fender like he's supervising.

      He is their GPS autosteer if they start to go off line he barks though though other GPS he can be prone to dropping out usually when he has seen a rabbit

    Hi from Australia,
    We have had 5 years of a below average crop but.....
    This year the farming gods have shone on us and we have had very good rain hopping on a very good year this year, can’t wait.
    It’s hopefully going to be a great year, the 2388 is going to have to work her but off this year
    Love you guys you make great content
    Thanks 👍🏻

    A lot of people look at Welker Farms videos and enjoy the content, which I absolutely do. But lets all please not forget just how many people this farm has fed over the years and how many jobs its products have generated for the worldwide economy!
    What an absolute treasure that not many people seem to think about.

    Had the same problem years ago in some very dry wheat stubble. We had hauled over it several times with a vac tank so it was packed down on top of just being hard and dry. Fold the wings up on your disk. Takes forever to get over but the added lbs per square inch will get you down to those roots......... love the videos guys!

    You should use Casoron G4 in your shelter belt. Doesn’t kill any wooded plants but prevents weeds, grass and anything else growing for 2-3 years. We use it on our raspberry patch to keep the grass down and it works amazing. Strongly recommend.

    I think it would be awesome if you picked up and old Steiner or Ventrac with a 60” mower deck for the Matriarch to drive. I would rework it to look like a baby Bud, and put duals on it just because. It would rule the lake house too, great for 30 deg slopes. I have a Steiner 430 max, which would be a nice fit, but I’m not planning to sell it any time soon.

    Australia is having a good year with their cropping because of good rains. Like one says don't count your chickens before they hatch or till grains in the barns. The farmers are happy so far with the outlook though still nearly 1.5 - 2 months before harvest starts and a lot can happen until then. Hello Aussies and wishing the farmers good rain till seed setting from Benalla Victoria Australia. Welker's, we wish you all the best also with your harvest.

    Yes we have some big farms in Western Australia, Merredin Farms is 450,000 acres in size, but they use those silly Green Combine Harvesters, and Esperance to the South has farms up to 200,000 acres. It’s great to see lots of traditional family farms still operate across the Wheatbelt of West Australia that are between 5,000 to 20,000 acres.. it’s great watching the similarities of wheat farming you do to what we do here. 🇦🇺 🦘 🦘🦘🦘🇦🇺.

    My grandfather was the grader driver for our small city in NH. He learned his skills as a tank driver in World War 2. When I was a kid, he'd be plowing the snow into huge furrows in the middle of the road for the giant snow blower to load into trucks. The best sound of a heavy storm was when all this equipment idled down in front of my house and an air horn blew, letting me know Grandpa wanted me to go riding! Those memories are 50 years old...
