- Idaho Potato & Barley Harvest near Tetonia - Grand Teton Mountains
In this video I am out in an Idaho Potato Field. This field is located just north of the town of Tetonia Idaho and on the West Side if the Grand Teton Mountains.
My wife and I took a recent trip out west and traveled through Yellowstone National Park then down to Jackson Hole Wyoming. After spending the night in Jackson we headed on over into Idaho and I was able to video this farm as they were digging potatoes in this field. This field had a pivot on it for irrigation and they had spring barley planted in the corners of the field. This was a great video opportunity as they were digging potatoes on the irrigated circle another crew was harvesting the spring barley. Later in the day I was also able to do another video east of here that was harvesting (digging) sugar beats. After this day we headed down to Utah where I met my son to go Elk Hunting with him in the mountains in Northern Utah.
The potatoes in this field were an Idaho Red Mini Potato.

Great video. I really like hearing the natural sounds, instead of a bunch of music.
Thanks for coming to Idaho.
Thank you for the presentation and wonderful verity😊
I grew up in Shelley Idaho in the late 70’s early 80’s and worked on my friends farm during harvest. Shelley is home of the Russet Potato and Spud Days. Oh how I love and miss the smell of the dirt and spuds as they are coming out of the ground and stored in the sheds. So much has changed since then. Many people supplemented their incomes running equipment and picking on the harvester. That was dangerous work that ended with lots of missing fingers and arms. To see a modern version with one person operating is amazing, they are complicated machines and the work is very unique compared to most harvesters. Thanks for sharing the Idaho potato and sugar beet harvest.

I just finished harvest a couple weeks ago in Shelley.
Nice to see a potato harvest video😉👍 that self propelled potato harvester looks very cool👍👍
Great video Mike. Two for one day in Idaho. And the Grand Tetons to boot.
Pretty cool! Beautiful back drop too!! Thanks Mike!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Amazing video ❤
Thanks for sharing the video Mike. Neat seeing the potatoes being harvested and cutting barley in the same field. Beautiful view of the back side of the Grand Tetons.
I grew up on a potato farm not too far from where Mike shot this video. The equipment had changed a lot but the basics are the same. Great video and great and accurate narration Mike, well done.
Good morning, sir!
Awesome videos. Just awesome..
Fun to see such a large potato operation. Amazing they are picking up 8 rows with the large machines!
we have a windrower that can do 8 at once!! and we have a few 6 rows. its a time saver
Great to see some potatoeharvesting aswell as other interesting videos. Thanks for keep sharing.
This is the first time I have seen anything like this. About 10 miles from us one farm grew potatoes for Frito-lay on contract. And I never realized how they dug them. Now they no longer do contract work but make their own Potato Chips in house. Thanks for showing this video. And I like your new intro format.
Awesome video Mike! I always like seeing food crops harvested, it's interesting to see the different equipment. Thanks for the beautiful scenery too!
Awesome content as always Mike!
Good video Mike, thanks! Lots of potatoes grown around here as well so wasn’t new to me except not a lot a S.P.potato harvesters around. Mostly pull type Spudnik harvesters. Thanks for letting us hear the machines running instead of some awful music like some videos have!
I always enjoy seeing all the different farming techniques and different equipment. Great video Mike 👍🏻.
Would definitely like to see more footage off grain and potato harvest in Southeast Idaho🙂
I have only once seen potatoes harvested and that was in southeastern Michigan and it was in august. Great video as usual, Mike
Very good video
Always enjoyed tater digging,and I've hauled many loads of Idaho potatoes generally outta Rexburg...Great Video.
I'm really happy to watch your video, I hope you will grow and create for the benefit of all our compatriots with love. And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
Nice to see thank you. 👍
Amazing video as always! One of these days you should come to Washington state to check out the side hill combines.
Yes that's going to happen hopefully next year.
Harvesting has become easier than ever, giving people higher productivity
very good video
Mike I love this video of the mountains in the background
Would love to take a trip out there to see them in person.i love the potato harvester never saw a self propelled one before I was always used to pull type harvesters .
I assume those potatoes windup on our grocery store shelves.
Thank you for this video Mike hope you had a really good time with your family
I always enjoy your videos eep up the good work Mike
God bless you and your family
Nice memories I have drove around picking patatoe products and fun pieceful
Awesome content Mike views were amazing. Certainly seems it would take a patient individual to harvest taters!!!
That is some amazing farming out there. The last two times that I visited Jackson Hole, we stayed in Driggs, ID at an Airbnb. Cheaper than hotels in Jackson Hole.
Yes we stayed at some cabins in Driggs on one of our visits as well.
Good video.
Man o man I grew up in Fremont County ID things have really changed the way they dig potatoes. This is one of the things I really miss about Idaho was the potato harvest the smell of the potatoes going in the storage cellars I can only imagine that is probably different now as well , Fremont county is still just a little north of here but we played the in basketball
Maybe some of that barley will make it to the Utica club. In Utica NY. They have there own railroad siding for the FX Matt Brewery!
That potato harvester has a mess of tires on it. Must be one heavy piece of farming tech.
That potatoe harvester is cool! Sounds like it needs some grease!
Need to come south away from the seed farms and see the big boys roll. We put two 6 row crossovers infront of the digger so we can dig 16 rows every time across the field. Keeps the chains loaded and reduces bruising. Also less time with a boom in the truck bed.
Nothing like the great outdoors and all that space! It really sucks out all the stress and anxiety from todays fast pace world. I wonder if you got some potatoes to take with you for some fresh potatoes for home! haha.
Allan Equipment made in good ol PEI, Canada! Canadas potato capital! At a population of say 185k people, the smallest province, we grow roughly 25% of canadas potato crop!
I like Mike less videos on UA-cam from the imperial county California 👍👍🇺🇲🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜
Nice video, but September is still summer, until the 23rd (today)!
I think they have to sell it to a different brewery. Bud light is dead. 😀
We have a couple options. There's Anheuser and Modelo.
If you drove through Logan Utah thats where i live! Enjoy your stay here
I've been through Logan before but not on this trip.
🇬🇧We would dig one row at a time with maybe a dozen people in the harvester. 56 lbs paper bags would be thrown on maybe a 4 ton trailer behind a FIAT 780, the 1/2 ton truck, or the somewhat uncommon straight 6, long wheel base, Landrover. All day, everyday in the summer spuds were carted into the nearby seaside town where at the same time we would carry bags in the rear door, people were walking out the front door with their fish (you could see the harbour from the chippy) and chips. Really, we all hated holiday makers🇬🇧 7:03
Mike, Never seen potatos havested with a machines that big! That Varitron is a monster! Do they trailer it from field to field? Quite an operation👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Neat video Mike. We’re hoping to start soybean harvest next week here in north central Indiana.
Kokomo or Peru?

Awesome video Mike that's what I run but we have 4-6 row winrowersand 2-3 row Allen harvesters
Everything we have is Donnie Alan I live in Prince Edward Island Canada not too far from where the island machines are built
We dig 15 rows at a time
hello fellow Islander.
i imagine the truckers were having a hard time with creeper gear while loading on the go, wonder if the trucks were automatics
We try to buy them with extra low gears to creep.
Beard Farms barley and Sunrain seed potatoes.
red spuds are the best.
Love the guys grain cart 2 flags he's flying proudly. #FJB
Enjoyed the video like always Mike. I see they are windrowing the straw from the barley, what are they going to do with it?

Will they plant barley in the potato field next year ?
I'm not sure what they will rotate in next year. I have heard wheat and barley is a good rotation with potatoes.
How come you never do any videos of small square baling videos?
Well I had one lined up this past summer and the weather did not cooperate while I was there. I've done some in the past.
Who makes the self propelled potato digger?
Also the wind rower is called a side caster
Looks to be made at spudnik... they make various other spud machinery..I live not to far from them

5:25 The Tetons do not have a backside! You are looking at the west side.
Yes I understand that, I said backside as a reference reason being most people only see the Tetons from the Wyoming side (East Side) I've been on both sides of the Tetons many times but I've never found a place on the west side to get the view like you can on the east side. Again this was only a reference but thanks for pointing that out.
@@farmhandmike The Tetons are beautiful from all sides, and so is your video!
Just so long as you're not looking at it from the underside...lol
Look a FJB banner on the grain cart. Biden 2024 #teamfaniwillisjacksmith.
