Hi I found your videos today I'm a retired farmer from South bend Indiana . I'm 76 years old I sold (give ) my three sons a there family the responsibility to run the business . I do odd things around the farm . I restored a 1959 830 rice Johnny popped with a 1966 227 corn picker. Remember Safety is number one on your farm.
I appreciate you dropping in and saying hello. There is nothing more important than bringing everyone home safely, and we always try to keep that in mind. It sounds like you are a wealth of agricultural knowledge-thanks for tuning in!
I think it is awesome that your sister drives the combines. I don't know that many ladies working/driving farm equipment. Driving combines has always been my favorite thing to do so that is why I was always put on grain cart. 😂
I appreciate it! We have been working together for a long time, and some of us a lot longer than others. We have a process that works well for us, but may not work elsewhere.
It isn’t as much of an issue when we’re working ground, because it is always running near 100%. The slow grain cart days don’t provide many opportunities for cleaning.
aTrippyFarmer the tractor was probably at 90% power on flat land with a chip on it. We tried without a chip on it and no difference with the burn off but we had more power. A case quadtrac will fix your problems too

Tom Preiss nooo not necessarily! You’d have to be conscious of infrastructure and operational costs which is sometimes overlooked in farming. Corn is much easier to dry down than soybeans. Very, very rarely will you ever hear talk of drying soybeans-they will just blend them in with dry beans.
I’m sure that they exist, but I don’t know anything about them. I think you could probably utilize a water house, but you’d have to be careful about spoiling the seed.
In a word.....climate! Cotton requires a long growing season and we harvest well into, what for them, is the dead of winter. Plants just won't survive it. I'm in Alabama, and we grow lots of it here too.
I’d love to live in a place warm enough to grow Cotten, but we are limited to our climate. There are a few great channels out there that grow Cotten and other similar crops. I bet you’d enjoy them!
Oh in case anyone else has the same problem I did when this channel started. I recently fixed not getting notifications by unsubscribing and then re subscribing.
I can tell your not much of a mechanic cause that def shit is not good for anything at all. Split some of some painted metal and tell me what happens go look at the def tanks at truck stops now they could just put diesel on the metal being as diesel is a oil
Other than “cleaner emissions,” I have never claimed to be a fan of the DEF. I know good and well that it can be extremely corrosive. I enjoy raw, unfiltered power. Thanks for watching!
You keep complaining about Keen work boots. Did you buy the made in USA keens? They still make some in USA. Actually keens are hiking boots for yuppies not working men. Red Wing has some work boots for working men, some are made in Minnesota in case you didn’t know. So quit dissing a American company. Spend a little of that farm welfare check you got from the government on real working boot.
Moe, the “farm-welfare check” is to keep the farm operating. Don’t let everyone fool you with the face value of their operation-some of these farms aren’t as well off as they’d like you to think. I am just an employee here. Being an American company doesn’t give you a free pass to produce low-quality products. If the boots were made for hiking, I was not aware of that. I am fairly certain that they are also branded for work, especially with a reinforced toe. Thanks for watching, and chill out a little bit next time!

Man go watch Erin Holbert, those women run the show and crush it.
Very cool to see the whole family working together to get things done, looking forward to seeing how the rest of the harvest pans out:)
I appreciate it! We have been working together for a long time, and some of us a lot longer than others. We have a process that works well for us, but may not work elsewhere.
It doesn’t matter who is running what. What really matters is everyone working together and getting the crop to market.
You Americans really love you, r corn and beans!
We love it so much that there is nearly 200 million acres of it grown per year!
Great video, love to see the sizes of farms compared to us in the UK! Keep it up 👍🏽
The UK doesn’t quite have as much extra space to work with. Thanks for watching!
Wow guys I just started watching and live it. I wish i could tell more people about this
I am glad that you enjoy it. I look forward to seeing you in the comments!
Man, Great video. Beautiful!! Excellent explanation of the process. I think that deserves a subscribe
I appreciate the comment. Thanks for tuning in!
Great Video! And insane drone Shots!
That’s the one thing I can get right every time haha
Great video, mud last harvest to cracks in the ground this harvest. Hope the yields are way above average this year, you guys deserve it.
we have a 9560r and it was doing burn off/regen 2 twice a day pulling our seeder. got it fixed last winter, not sure what it was but wasn't very cheap

Do you folks have stirrers in any of your bins?
One of my favorite tools for soybean harvest, can blend 15% morning beans with 11% nighttime beans.
We only have a few bins left with stirrers. The spreader up top and the fan is about enough to even then out!
Stir-ators should be outlawed. 🤣

Katies holigans....I think you love them...😉
They are mischievous little ones, but I do have a soft spot for them!
Doo y'all dump at the Staley's Tate&Lyle elevator in town, Or run it up to ADM in Sullivan ?
There is actually two Tate & Lyle facilities in Mattoon. We haul to the one on the west side of town, located along 121. Thanks for watching!
i wish you a good harvest 2020!!!!!
Till a palit of cement in to that floor and you won't have the dust problem.
I’m just a measly employee here, and that is above my pay grade. I hope to someday build a nice shop. Thanks for watching!
I love John Deere
Have you seen growing corn 2020 channel yet.. He is also on tictoc
Great vid wish i could get to that lecel one day
Nice drone work while keeping up with the combines. Fade back was interesting.
Harvest season due to growing up farming and working on another farm so that's why I said harvest time🚜
Know, you can’t collect workman comp because farmers don’t have to pay for workman comp insurance for their employees.
It was a joke!
Hey there’s no such thing as to much farming in one video😄
Haha when you have live it then edit it again later, it can really add up!
In other words if you have the grane been facility that can manipulate the moisture you've got it made?
Tom Preiss nooo not necessarily! You’d have to be conscious of infrastructure and operational costs which is sometimes overlooked in farming. Corn is much easier to dry down than soybeans. Very, very rarely will you ever hear talk of drying soybeans-they will just blend them in with dry beans.
@@aTrippyFarmer I was talking about theas grane bin sistoms that rehydrate soy beens.
I’m sure that they exist, but I don’t know anything about them. I think you could probably utilize a water house, but you’d have to be careful about spoiling the seed.
@@aTrippyFarmer Brian's Farming Video on his new grain sistom has that capability you'll have to watch his video.
Tom Preiss I will go check it out. Thanks for the comments!
Why don't you run the combines?
It’s above my pay grade.
What county u in I live up in Chicago
Coles County. Right along I-57.
@@aTrippyFarmer ur near Springfield
@Evan Kirk More to the southeast. Springfield is along I-55.
Is that your family farm
Yes! My family has farmed in this area for over 170 years.
Why is there no cotton farmers, we have a lot in west Tennessee
In a word.....climate! Cotton requires a long growing season and we harvest well into, what for them, is the dead of winter. Plants just won't survive it. I'm in Alabama, and we grow lots of it here too.

Why does your sister get to run the combine I would think that should be your spot
Ed Crego I figured she’d be in the kitchen
You'll have to show everyone the famous landmark in Gays sometime.
You can film from the bottom level and I will demonstrate that top!
@@aTrippyFarmer quite the smartass too!
✌️✌️✌️
You are going to have to get a better mic, you can barely hear you
Fifty third 👍
Where at in Illinois
He did say the second field was near Windsor. So in/around Shelby county.
Southwestern Coles County. Mattoon.
Awesome, not far from ya grew up in strasburg living in sullivan

I WILL NEVER GO TO YOUR BLUE STATE ....
Why are you guy running 30foot headers you could operate 45 flex headers
Not on class 7 combines. Also, 45ft heads are expensive.
