    Interesting to see all those gears turning by that long chain, at first glance it reminds me of some kind of Albert Einstein space time planetary tracking device. Good to see Ashtyn & baby Chapel in the tractor, motherhood ain't easy so great to see her out in her field seeding. 😀🇬🇧

    We do snow removal and fertilizing in the Midwest. To help stop corrosion we wash everything with a neutral wash but what I think helps the most is taking a couple gallons of penetrating oil and spraying the heck out of all the equipment.

    Mike, when you were riding on the cart, it was really interesting to see how the drill reacted as Ashton turned the Fendt. Instead of a gradual turn, it almost pivoted to stay behind the 2 track. Learned something new today.
    And did I see the beginnings of a grain bin foundation at the yard in your last video?

  • @deandecooman

    As a farmer from Europe I find it crazy how you guys treat your land. No winter crops for anti erroding? Only artificial furtilizer? It’s really factory farming over there. Crazy how many rules we have to follow and the freedom you guys have. Enjoy it while it lasts. Great videos and locations mike and family. Keep it up.

    • @ke6gwf
      @ke6gwf 2 роки тому

      The extreme climate up there makes a big difference.
      There isn't time in the non frozen season to grow a cover crop, nor is there water for it.
      And since it's frozen from just before planting to harvest, erosion over the winter isn't a big issue.

    @mytech6779 2 роки тому +1

    Urea isn't as quite corrosive as some other nutrients(maybe not a practical difference) but aside from rust you loose a huge amount of N to evaporation if it sits on the soil surface for even a few days. Like 50% N loss per week in warm growing weather. actual loss here depends on percentage mixing by the shovel openers and rain after application. AmmNitrate doesn't have the evaporation issue but nitrate is quicker to leach (but plants also suck up the nitrate preferentially)
    Ammsulfate costs a bit more per N but supplies S(maybe too much S) which is needed in the soil about 1:10 with N and has neither the evaporation nor quick leaching issues.

    Hopefully the MAJOR THUNDERSTORM & DOWNPOUR that hit west central Saskatchewan earlier this morning stayed away from east central Saskatchewan so you can actually do some tree planting today otherwise your road trip from the south farm on your wedding anniversary could simply be chalked up to quality family time in the vehicle.
    The ducks are happy but
    4 x 4 mode is now mandatory when not on paved roads.
    We luckily didn't get the tornadoes that unfortunately hit south central Alberta yesterday.
    Your north farm area also saw a tornado hit a couple of farm yards in the Foam Lake area where MAJOR DAMAGE was done to shops & bins but luckily no lose of life.
