Laura, all these wannabe women ("influencers", movie or tv stars, politicians, etc) who think they are role models for girls need to see what a real role model looks like and follow you. You are a Student and Teacher, a Business Owner and Entrepreneur, a UA-cam icon, a person with all sorts of skills that all farmers learn, and much, much more. You communicate so well as you are doing your work, making farming real. Your zest for learning more about farming is an inspiration. Your enthusiasm is so contagious. I look forward to each of your posts, and I've been around farming and farmers and did my share when I was younger, for many years.
I do have a question though: when do you sleep? With everything else you are doing, I can't see where there's room for more than three or four hours for sleep, tops! 🤔😏😂
Dave
In others words, she is not an entitled little girl. She knows what most farmers know: You don’t work, you don’t eat...
Well said
Fr tbis is what wifey material is!!! This is a real woman!!!! She would be a super hero in the early 1800s and 1900s matter fact through out all of history except here in America
Not to take away anything from you........but Kudos to your Dad!!!! He did a great job raising you.
We need more Laura’s in this world!! Great job!!
You impact more lives than I think you know. On behalf of all of them I would like to say thank you.👍👍
You may not realize, but you are making educational videos. Many viewers are learning a lot about farming. I am one of them. Keep up the good work.
Your channel reaches out to people that dreams of what you do, me myself was raised on a dairy farm, tractors time ment a break from the milking time. I am medically retired and wished I could be back out. So keep us posted with your season.
PS: you my dear don't need makeup, you are naturally beautiful, don't hide it.
Girl you are so gorgeous naturally you dont need a single drop of makeup!
The absolute joy you get out of farming
Shines thru every video.
God bless your family.
You are a wonderful inspiration to young women everywhere. A great role model for future young people. As Casey Kasem use to say "keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars" and you keep doing that. Bless you and all the farmers....
Thank you for bringing food to American tables. Lots of people don't think of people that do that. Great informative video on your daily life. Well done young lady. Tell Grant, hello, dad also. Good day.
Hello there , how are you feeling? Hope you have a wonderful day.God bless you!!!❤
Your smile always makes my day better. Have fun training those kids in track
Damn. This girl's enthusiasm is contagious. You can't help but to smile non stop watching her.
When I was a kid one of our neighbors (who was also a member of our church) was killed when he was switching anhydrous tanks. Apparently he got a face-full of gas, which causes you to reflexively inhale. He was killed almost instantly. When I was a little older I worked at a farm coop in Southeastern Minnesota. The guys who handled the anhydrous tanks would always bleed them off into a water tank that seemed like it was always upwind from me. I spent many hours smelling that stuff and it's a smell you don't forget.
On a happier note, good for you Laura for working on becoming a pillar of the community by helping to coach the track team!
I grew up on a farm injecting lots so anhydrous ammonia, dangerously stuff. I work with it as a refrigerant now. We use it on a lot of hockey rinks and food processing facilities. Have to respect it for sure. 350 PPM and you won't know. You would be dead before you hit the ground. Anything over 50 PPM where supposed to use respirators, anything over 250 PPM we have to call fire department. Be safe young lady and double check every connection and be very slow and deliberate when you un hook hose. Don't feel like you have to rush anything when un hooking or hooking up. And that is the best way to disperse Ammonia, water breaks it down.
About a hundred years ago grandpa would cultivate the corn. It was a single horse and a single row with shields and steering discs. He sat on it and looked at his feet steering it. Usually the kids would do this work. On the third cultivation he would come back over the field and broadcast red clover seed. The corn would deplete so much of the nitrogen that he would let that field go fallow with the clover healing the soil. He would put cattle on it to keep the field low and also add manure. What a difference in my lifetime.
So a track star too? Always impressive Laura....nice of you to give back.....oh good vix too.
Mrs. Laura, 1st off I love your channel. I have been watching since the beginning. 1st time commenting . I know I'm slacking. You are a great teacher so to speak. Explaining everything that's going on with whatever you are involved with doing. I live in Texas and have no idea about farm life and how farming is done. Watching your videos I have learned so much. Congrats to Grant and yourself for getting married. Im pretty sure it's your killer smile that got him hooked. To a lifetime of love, happiness and farming. No matter what your video is about as long as it comes from Laura Farms, I'm watching 110%
When I worked on a farm in the late 70's we didn't have cab tractors, they were all open cabs. The stuff we had to spray was NOT good to be around, breath or have skin exposure to. The Good Lord definitely looked after me during those years. So very glad this younger generation has "cabs", air conditioning and GPS (oh my gosh - GPS) You Go GIRL !!
Hello from Germany!
I wish I could be with you and ride tracktors with you too. Unfortunately, the agriculture I grew up on no longer exists. The farmer, a close friend of my family, had to cease operations due to old age. To continue operating the farm you would have had to invest too much money. The regulations in Germany and the EU are very strict. At some point I will visit the USA. Most of all I want to visit a farm and if possible stay there for a few days and help. I miss working in the fields. Especially in the harvest time. I'm especially interested in the huge machines you have in America. I also find the type of cultivation interesting. I still know the old way, with plow and harrow. I am following your videos with great interest! Thank you that I can be a part of it on this path. I wish you lots of fun and success at work, and above all, everyone stays healthy!
If you are an experienced operator it is pretty easy to find farm work in North America.
Laura you mentioned makeup. You don't need makeup. You have a natural beauty.
This brings back wonderful memories. I delivered this product to farmers throughout Southern Alberta, 40 yrs ago. Worked for an Esso Agent. Pumped it from the delivery truck to the tank. Worked from sun up to sundown, even till after midnight some days. It was my spring, summer and sometimes fall employment between University classes. Perfectly safe if you are trained and take care. Never burned myself. Looks fun Laura. You have a good teacher. Love the farm and the country life. Worked for a farmer who leased over 7000 acres on the Blood Reserve as well. Now that was entertaining. Coyotes, skunk, elk, deer, moose, you name I saw it.
Did you just refer lunch, snacks and a tractor cab as the perfect “cropernation”? Lol. That’s gold right there. 😂
You are a hoot! And that’s a good thing. Very entertaining. Thanks for educating us while you work. 👍. Good safety practices. Love your energetic excitement about your life and helping others in your community. You’re a great American 👍🇺🇸😎🌽🚜🥇...
Nice to see what comes around by farming in the US. Brings back memories of about 40 years back. At that time I had a friend who lived on a small farm in Cuijk Netherlands (just under a big city Nijmegen) and I loved to help out at the farm. Driving the tractor, they had first a Ford and later a Lamborghini, with all kinds of machine attachments was my favourite. Years later during my Conservatory study I drove tractors in my vacations. Now I'm thinking:"I should have been doing that for a living". Well as a truckdriver it almost was similar to that. Love to see you driving and explaining the job and the machines. Work save and have fun.
Dad is planting a lot more seeds than just soybeans and corn. Good for him!
10:49 should have gone for the "We didn't start the fire. It was always burning, since the world's been turning."
Your obviously enjoy what you do, and it shows. Rock on Laura!
This is the kind of young woman I would love my two boys to meet!
I am 62 yrs old with 3 daughters and 4 granddaughters. (No boys) All of them always think I would have rather had some sons. Its not true. Daughters and Granddaughters can be your legacy as well (if not better) than boys. This father has a legacy that will live long after he is gone. No one will remember how much money he had had or how big of a tractor he owned. His daughter will remember what kind of a father he was.......Isn't that all that matters???
Very informative! Loved hearing your instructions, explanations, and little added thoughts and quips 🥰
What a great feeling to get spring work started. Chemical prices are scary crazy price. So thankful we pre-ordered and paid last fall. Stay safe everyone
Your Smile is so Bright!!!😁
Just found your channel recently, and what a great job you do making these videos. Your demeanor, your bubbly personality, your smile, and your knowledge of running the farm equipment makes this so enjoyable to watch. I think you do an awesome job!
You are doing great and important job ) You're brilliant person, wish you luck
first time viewer, you have great energy. You do a good job of explaining what's going on, I'm a arm chair farmer so I get into the details of what's happening. I thought you where like 14 til you said you were married. The farm life keeps you young, maybe it's something in the anhydrous. I watch Zach, Brian, and Cole. I guess I'll have to add you to my line up. Great content keep them coming.
Pretty good driving with that disk, you got real close to that fence with out flinching...
Thank you for telling folks about what's going into and how dangerous getting the ground ready to plant corn.
Like you I was out of College before I was put on the anhydrous drill. I did all the soy beans, oats and milo, in high school so this bring back memories. We did not have all the equipment that your family dose. We did all right and I am happy to say the family farm is still working to this day.
Glad to see you are back doing what you enjoy the most. When your job becomes a chore and you don't enjoy it any more that is when you move on. Keep smiling Laura you make my day. Thanks for another great video
That tractor cab will not keep you safe from the ammonia. It could keep the concentration higher where you are breathing. Please look into an emergency respirator for any accident that may occur. You're so awesome. I'd be sick if something could have been prevented so easily.
Sorry - concerned dad vibes. ❤️
I got gassed from 100 yards away from an open discharge valve on a nurse tank, (possible theft situation) so yes, get a 3m respirator that is rated for anhydrous ammonia. It will take you down/out fast.
Awesome video. Wonderful to see the many many tasks needed to put food on the table
Nice to see you guys getting in there fields. Here in southern Michigan we have been warm but not enough to start anhydrous application. We normally start that in early April or late march . Our anhydrous tool bar is 50 feet wide we run it with a johndeere 9570rt. We do some regular sidress of nitrogen as well into the standing corn . We are slowly going away from anhydrous as it can be dangerous. Nice video keep up the good work and stay safe !
I learn more and more everyday from you keep up the good work!
I too am excited for planting to start!
Last summer we sold our 1993 White 6300 6 row planter and bought a 2015 Kinze 3000 6 row 👍
Please more farm videos plant season ?
Tractor rides are back! woohoo!!
You are great girl! Thanks a lot for your smile... But like you said, you have a lot of roles, it's really cool to see in videos! You awesome =)
With love from Russia :)
Awesome! Laura you are Very Busy!! 👍👊
This was very entertaining Laura. Thank You. Spring is in the air n I know cause being Canadian I woke a couple mornings ago to the sound of geese honking (which signals the unofficial beginning of Spring). YAY
What a brilliant channel regards from Ireland🇨🇮
Yup ireland
2:20 🤣😆 holy crap had to google this freak substance. Bet the plants & soil just thrive in this stuff
A girl who vlogs and farms u got a new subscriber love from Florida
When I was a little boy, my dad was heading back to the field after lunch on a tractor with no cab, When the relief valve on the anhydrous tank blew. Sprayed his whole back. Dangerous stuff, scary times.
Thanks for supporting your community
Hi Laura, awesome vlog!. Im in Mankato, Mn and my daffodils and Tulips are up 4" poking through the leaves!😎 So excited. Hope we dont get much snow on Monday. Stay safe!
Great job. God bless you. You will be the inspiration to somany out there. Keep rocking
Glad the breeze was blowing away from you. It definitely is some nasty stuff not to be played with. That variable rate application is pretty cool! We didn't have that available back in the day. When we first started applying Anhydrous it was at one rate only. I always like discing, especially the smell of the dirt when you turn it the first time. Of course I can smell it better than you since my tractors are all open station. Cool video. Good job!!! 👍👍👍
My daughter & I had no idea what was in those 2 tanks your pulling but, now we do. thx for sharing this video
Another great video! Glad to hear you are coaching young people. Would love to see videos of you in your track career.
Hey there fellow farmer coming at you, whoot whoot. My crops are much smaller than your own and usually done at least up till recently under the stealth of a large basement facility using the latest hydroponic techniques. My crops make so many people so happy I love it. But I’m jealous at all the cool equipment you get to drive around in. I guess you need since profits are measured in acres versus square feet for myself. Anyway you very pretty and have that bubbly cute personality everyone is eluding to but for some reason won’t say it. People enjoy being around your type personality. Possibly consider being a farm personality selling that type equipment. You could prob do it part time and make a killing at the same time. Just one of my antreapbuner ideas I come up with. As of now my ideas pay very well to boot. The market has changed but the demand has only increased. God bless my country. And your family.
Good Morning .. When I used to apply anhydrous I only had one tank And that was before auto track. .. In one field I had applied 5 tanks by mid afternoon .. Yes if you get just one drop of it on your skin it doesn't really start burning your skin until it touches it . My arms were covered in dust so when the drop fell it looked a marshmallow bubbling .. and no water on the tank .. I'm ready to watch your planting vlogs .
I always enjoyed disking or field cultivation good times in a tractors. Looks good keep up good work Laura. I would've loved the new tech like auto steer 😆.
Love the videos Laura! You're a crazy ole gal, but in such a good way. lol I haul the chemicals that the farmers use and I always enjoy going to everyone's farms and seeing up close what you all do. I'm so jealous! Maybe when I retire from trucking I can hop into a big John Deere and live happily ever after. Keep up the good work and keep on making the cool videos.
You picked this job up quickly,NICE👍👍
😂😂 oops,spoke too soon. All good 🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍
Lady, you don't need any makeup...you are beautiful as you are. (I thought you were made up, too! That is how radiant you are!) Your husband is a very lucky fella to have such a hard-working, honest, smart, and sweet bride like you. Thank you for these videos, please keep them coming, and stay safe! Peace to you and yours.
Great video always so energetic and explaining what ya do well
So the word of this episode is - multitasking -
And You have really great weather, here in Poland is a bit stormy right now...
Things are getting exciting!
Eres súper simpatica, trabajadora y lista. Gracias por tus videos 👏
Love You Laura!!!!!😘😘😘😘😘
Great video as usual
I used to knife in anhydrous for my dad when I was a teenager.No cab,crapy applicator that you had to shut off with a rope that was attached to the valve.Sometimes it wouldn’t shut off when you raised the tool bar.Good times!
I always loved plowing and disking. I feel plowing is great therapy it gives your mind a place to think. An now you don’t even have to drive so you can write and make notes.
OK, my first Laura video and you are soooooo friggin cute! And hilarious haha😉😆 Love this, you are super woman😉💪💪😎
Very cool . Love the wide open space so nice
Hello there , how are you feeling? Hope you have a wonderful day.God bless you!!!❤
Thanks for taking us along.
Great content. I'm glad you understand and respect the dangers of anhydrous ammonia.
When you are applying in varying rate is the rate controlled by the computer on prescription maps ?
Stay safe. No makeup required.
I flew Vipers in the military back in the day. It was much easier than this. Good job! I’m impressed. Gotta respect our farmers!
Very interesting. I enjoy your videos.
As a dad I would think it was not about trust but more not wanting to expose his little girl to a hazardous job. Good on him to give you the opportunity to do it.
Laura is an inspiration. Bless her.
Nice to see you in a tractor again. God Bless you.
Where I come from we call that strip tilling, but you learn something new everyday!
Good to see you out getting some field work done before the heavy rains and snows of the weekend ahead Laura! How is your study going for you with busy season 1.0 (aka planting season) about to hit hard? Stay Well! -Bob...
Great to see you
Very interesting Laura, thanks
I love that first whiff of nh3 it's a sign the fall season is a go or spring, we try to do a lot of ours in the fall if we can make a 1st pass then will come back with 32% in spring with ydrops, got all of our nh3 on last fall before the weather broke, dang glad was about 400 bucks a ton last I knew was over 700 now
I use to sand blast & paint those kind of tanks. We worked for the CO-OP
Awesome video!
Finally a farm video!
Great video!
Great job👍
Good job Laura well done regards Andrew
I feel like I'm ln Farm school 101 😊. Great video, which was very detailed. Well planned out in advance, logistics.
Hello there , how are you feeling? Hope you have a wonderful day.God bless you!!!❤
Sleep? What is that? A chihuahua with a double shot espresso! ! !
Crazy you guys are in the fields , still snow on the ground east coast of Canada
be careful with the anhydrous ammonia Laura,also love the videos
My favorites John deere 8530. I like it
You don’t need mascara you look beautiful without it laura
If only I could find a gal like you to help on the farm here. Nearly impossible to find any good ones here in Northern MN. Very dry here, so hoping for rain before planting small grains April 10.
When I did that, there was hardly any tractors with cabs. When you turned you got a good whiff of it.
I had no idea there were still women out there. I just can't believe how impressive you are. You are beyond awesome. Put your cash app or venmo in the description, and say "Buy me a Bagel"
Good job young lady
I love the 8530
