Thanks Nick for a wonderful live stream video today. It is so interesting seeing all the questions you get asked. Lots of thought goes into them that is obvious. Enjoy the questions. Can understand your risk of fire. Be careful and you have the fire truck out there with you. Thanks so much Nick for the video. Prayers for a good crop production year for the Welkers The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
14 hrs late, but i’m here! 👍 Everytime i see those yellow peas, i get hungry! A soup made from yellow peas, onions and some pork is just something else.😋 With some tasty mustard.👍 That’s the tradition on thursdays here in Sweden. 🇸🇪 Have a good one and stay safe.
Thanks Nick, I always look forward to your seeding and harvest streams, may God bless you and all of your family. Thank you for all of your videos too.
It’s tough for all farmers, you guys can have your bumps snd triumphs. I wish you guys would get more rain, ever since I’ve started watching you guys the amount of rainfall has gotten less n less. Lot of not enough rain for farmers and those who have to much rain can be just as tough. Will continue to pray for you guys to get a bumper crop! There is always next year that could be the year!
Greetings from Northwest Montana. Just finished making hay today so hopefully it will last until next year. Had a visit the other day while haying of a Grizzly Bear Sow and her 2 little cubs. Love Montana as you never know who's going to visit you. Best wishes for a successful harvest season.
I haven't been able to listen to the whole video because there's too much work to do, but I got through the part about certified seeds. That's good info Nick. I'm glad you explained it.
Would it work if you harvested "fire strips" in the field at the beginning of harvest. By that I mean harvest strips perpendicular to the wind direction wide enough that the fire can't jump across or is there too much debris left on the ground for that to work? Can you set the combine to not distribute the debris like wheat straw harvesters do or at least, I think they do.
Trees in NY grow faster than we cut them down and nearly all hardwood. I have a common apple tree over 70 ft tall and it still bares fruit. Sugar maples 7 ft across the butt and 80 ft tall. I give firewood, mostly dead ash and maple, away to my neighbors.
Nick, in dry weather and conditions, wrap a chain around your steer axle on your combines, it grounds the machine and helps prevents any "electrical" sparks that can cause a fire. This trick works, think of it as a grounding strap.
Great stream, great channel, thanks from Switzerland. I like the different farming live you have in this endless expanses. You should install a handy holder :) looks exhausting to me to always hold the phone up...
Great point about tree hugger pollution. The smart thing to do would be to stop feeding them until they get the message. Too bad we can't. They will never admit that their policies have the opposite results of what they agitate for. Your tree hugger pollutes 50 times more than those who feed and house them.
I farmed in E MT for many years and stopped in the mid 80's to go back to grad school and now retired from OSU in Nuclear Engineering. Keep up the videos. I watch you and Fast Ag daily'
Drove through couple days ago coming back from, Alberta. Believe I saw the Magnum pulling a grain cleaner over I-15 overpass. Wasn’t sure if that was y’all or not.
I was just curious. I watch your videos all the time. I also watch Zeorian Harvesting and they are cutting in Highwood, MT. Why do they harvest 80 to 100 bushel wheat and you guys don’t?
Hey Nick, you should know as a farmer there are only two days a week. Do you know what they are?? They are light day and dark day, when light day ends, you wonder what you didn’t get done during dark day
Hello from Alabama. Do you have pheasants in your area. I come to South Dakota every year and was wondering if you guys have any in your area. Also what is your nitrogen apps like as to #’s per acre
No corn up in that part of the country. In the "golden triangle" it's just what they grow. Some parts further south can support corn, but for the most part no on corn.
@@tomlines7181 they are super light and fluffy and the center reel arm sometimes catches them and causes them to just float above the reel. It's snt a big deal but can't see as well
@@adammenke229 How wide of a till strip do you think is needed? In the past we used 8-12 feet of disk to cut fire lines. 6 Feet will work even with 20 mph winds in 60+ bushel wheat straw.

Hello from Michigan. Love the channel
God bless you all!
You should call the 377 Pete "RePete"
Have enjoyed watching you and family the last several years wish I could be out there with you guys
Loving the livestreams guys, best of luck for the rest of the harvest season, and stay safe!

if the chain strikes a rock or a piece of metal wouldn’t it spark.
@@zarb88 No since it's grounded besides, when harvesting, combines aren't going fast enough to cause such.
Glad to see things improving. From ohio
Love you guys farming. Same rainfall than us in west of south africa
Any chance you will demo the new case combine?
That 377 should be called Blue Thunder

Hello from DEEP SOUTH TEXAS keep up the good work
Love the show, South Carolina
Great video. Did you know mandego is making a 115ft roller?
Hi Nick,I'm watching from Perth in Western Australia
Hello from Jamestown Michigan
I love the harvest live streams...10/acre product or 30/acre product it doesnt matter, you still learn a bunch riding along.
If you want that B model cat to last dont go above 450. The 3406C had bigger crank guts, was 460hp and first of the electronic timing engines.
Glad your harvest has started. We're about a month out from corn harvest in SW Missouri.
Also watching from sw Missouri
how many acres a day can you cover with your sprayer doing Chem Folow and saving on chemicals must be huge
Hi from North Dakota thanks for sharing
Why is the bushel’s per acre so drastically different between Montana and Ohio ? Ohio had some fields at 100 bushel.
@@bradleybisping lack of water, all has to do with moisture whether rain, snow, or irrigation.
Is there a way to install something to apply water, etc to the area around the combine, should a fire start as a 1st step in stopping crop damage?
Would it help to cut into the wind to help blow the short crop in the header? Just curious.
Good luck from a scotsman in brazil
Hi from down under. Loving the channel. How does the snow convert into inches of rain?
How many acres can you do in one hour with no hiccups?
I is amazing you seem to have the same problems I had farming with the breakdowns.
We grow canning peas here in western New York what are yours used for
I was just curious. I watch your videos all the time. I also watch Zeorian Harvesting and they are cutting in Highwood, MT. Why do they harvest 80 to 100 bushel wheat and you guys don’t?

They are light day and dark day, when light day ends, you wonder what you didn’t get done during dark day
Finally it looks like you have a crop
The Iowa farm boy says hello.
Do the "certified " seeds extract more nutrients from the soil than non-certified to get the additional yields?
Do you guys put out any canola ?
Why no house building videos?
Farming. No time.
Hello, please be safe
We'll be careful!
Can you do an early morning stream so european people don't have to watch at 02:00 and work at 06:00 the next day😉😉😉
Hello from Texas!
Have you thought about fitting tow hitch to the combines so that they can tow their own header
I don't think they need to take their headers off during harvest.
Now make Bob do a video while in the harvester, please. I always enjoy his jokes since were both the same age.
It’s not where you are, it’s how far you’ve come.
Hello from Amarillo, Texas. Sure would be nice to get enough rainfall to make 50 bushel yields on your dryland crops?
there’s an old farmers saying when you finally get a bumper crop, so does your neighbor and the sale prices go down.
Do you think a air system would make much difference on the shorter crops
Hello from Alabama. Do you have pheasants in your area. I come to South Dakota every year and was wondering if you guys have any in your area. Also what is your nitrogen apps like as to #’s per acre
Do yall grow corn in montana? Always wondered that or is just wheat or soybeans?
No corn up in that part of the country. In the "golden triangle" it's just what they grow. Some parts further south can support corn, but for the most part no on corn.

Kids are the best!
@@WelkerFarms yes sir they are
Hey babe, call it the Blue Ox!!!
Nick bravo on your statement regarding lack of sensible forest management. Because of tree huggers..
Does your crop insurance cover fire destroying crops
Why are the peas bunching up in the middle of your header?
@@tomlines7181 they are super light and fluffy and the center reel arm sometimes catches them and causes them to just float above the reel. It's snt a big deal but can't see as well
Why does the yield change soon much in fields next to each other
Nick, 5pm miles in 5 hrs is 100/miles/ hr average
Great videos guys , is it possible to add captions to your live streams , cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
The captions won't work while we're live, but we'll make sure to add them in afterwards!
Hey Roger from indiana wondering how the yield going per acreage
Would you get better yield if you used certified seed? Realize more expensive but just wondering? Thanks and enjoy the channel sir
Water is the main cause of yield fluctuations
En qué mes sembrasteis ese cultivo?😮
I would call your truck Big Blue

Where's leg arms hiding 💪
I never got tired of being an engineer. I got very tired of who I was doing the engineering for.
Cool
I'm wondering where the Draper head is this is Dave
Why not till a fire break on the outside round of the field? limit the possibility of fire to one field.
Soil will blow away

I prefer the camera looking at the outside. Occasional face shots are fine but not endlessly.
Just the rest of the country needs to pray for rain for Montana farmers.

Free corn seed even through a dealer isn’t always free… 50bu. better than the free seed is a loss.
We get to irrigate most of the summer. No breaks especially with cattle and cattle related activities.
Can we get a snake story from Brad please
500-600 miles to tony fast. 5-6 hours lol hammer down
Name the Pete "Bluey"
Are those flappy things on the reel made especially for throwing rocks into the header?

Oh wait I hope I got his name right.
Ugh short wheat or whichever crop it is.

Just tell your dad.
I told Larsons and Zack to share their overabundance of rain with you, but evidently they didn't get the message
Soon you will need shoulder surgery from holding that camera.
