Talk about a sh!* storm! Modern farm equipment is amazing. They were hauling those spreaders at high speed and it wasn't just spreading the manure, it was spraying it. Great video!
We had one of these spreaders. Worked amazing. Traded in our Knight Pro-Twin Slinger for it and never looked back. Great even coverage and loved the control spread for the cylinder push off for unloading.
@@1DirtyMutt this i have to agree with you every pound that goes on the field is money saved on fertilizer. As the Saying goes in Wisconsin the dairy state "come smell our dairy air".
Spreaders doing a great job. Large tonnage per acre. My knowledge of digested dairy manure is that it doesn’t have much odor or nutrient value (per ton). Lots of organic matter.
As a non-farmer, I found this video (and others of this type) very interesting and informative. Yes, agreed, it would also be interesting to see how it gets rendered. Q: how many cows is needed to produce all that manure? and do you store it somewhere until it is needed? Very interesting. TY for sharing 😊
Mike, I'm curious about the process of drying out of the manure, or digesting as some might call it. Is there a video somewhere that explains that process and the equipment involved? Thanks for all the videos, never miss the chance to stir the farming memories of my childhood.
@@noname-zs4ev I worked at a dairy 25 years ago that used separated solids for bedding. I think that first month the SCC went to 350K which was unacceptable. The solids were too damp to use for bedding. So they mixed in 1/3 sawdust and that went better. Still that sawdust was an expense so they next put up a big pile of inventory. The bacteria would heat it up and supposedly enough to kill them. I know it came back much dryer which was nice.
LoL It was stored on a crushed stone base. So them first loads came back with small stones scraped into it. Obviously they got pulled out of the stalls into the alleys where the cows could step on them. Now there is some sore footed cows and those stones keep getting separated out. LoL
Newer tractors can be put into a continuous flow option when pushing the hydro switch. My guess is the tractor pretty much leaves it in continuous and you have a controller for the spreader itself in the cab
Boy they are laying that stuff down THICK! But it's powdery fine :) Out here they only put a bit on, not sure why so little, but they make a pile on the edge of the field just like with lime, then I guess come through later and spread??
Mike I enjoyed watching the video with the Hegadorn spreader is working in the field are you on Hagedorn verticals spreader it’s my third Hegadorn spreader and it’s been a very good manure spreader and it’s taken a lot of abuse and use
Yea the spreaders are a bit small for the Tractors. Whats even more interesting for me is the fact is the manufacturer of the spreaders. Hagedorn is an old german company, i didnt know they even built manure spreaders. I own a Hagedorn Polyp, which is a hay tedder/ rake combination.
Spreader size may be the difference between being able to get on the fields and being stuck on the side lines...I’ll always take slightly smaller equipment that allows me to get on the fields when conditions aren’t perfect...
1DirtyMutt Yes valid point - I had a huge tanker in to put some slurry on grazing land for me - it was on big float tyres but still has left a hefty footprint.
@@j-bdekker4871i live in west germany and we are actually receiving hog and chicken manure from the netherlands. We dont have livestock and the farms we get the manure from do not have enough field to spread all of it there. We sell straw to them as exchange. I guess they woulnt have to sell it if the regulations werend so stict. So they give it to us to not go to the prison :D
What?? No ground-level shots? Walking along behind the spreaders, up close and personal? Maybe a cool bypass shot right by the wheel track? C’mon, Mike!
I watched a tractor driver operate a spreader. Instead of the manure exiting the rear of the machine. All of the manure was thrown on top of the tractor. I was curious why he was wearing a rain sticker. No hat on. A crappy job. He was smiling lol

They are throwing a nice pattern,great coverage. Again thanks Mike for the videos.

Rusty Nail what type of manure do you mainly deal with?
Best recycling ever. Wish I could get manure for my garden.
Glad you got a shot of them running side by side keep up the good work!
They'll sure get a lot done with those machines!
Hi
Ahh you just got to love the smell of the fresh air of the country side.
Yep nothing like it.
viz_a viz I’ll take the smell of manure over the smells of the city any day!!!
@@1DirtyMutt this i have to agree with you every pound that goes on the field is money saved on fertilizer.

I may be a little weird, but manure spreading videos are beautiful especially the drone shots.
Impressive spreaders. Great video.
Hagedorn was based out of paisley, Ontario and have quality equipment but sadly shut down last year
WOW, those manure spreaders are impressive
The 8 series John Deere looks soo good! Love them.
Hagedornn spreaders are tough units. We have two this size but horizontal. Bullet proof.

Awesome side by side shot! Great video
Awesome! So much fertilizer and organic matter in one easy to spread package.
Great video Mike! Well done.
Great video mike 👍🏻
Fantastic video loving the drone footage 👍 👍
This Florida boy is fascinated.Thx., Mike.
Great 👍 greetings from Germany 👋👋👋
Been almost 50 years now, but I can still recall the smell of manure!
That spreader works great👍
I like the look of this desiccated manure. It would be interesting to see more of how that gets rendered from the liquid state.

I grew up around a lot of this stuff (and my Dad taught agriculture in the local high school) but nowadays I am massively ignorant of so much.
Heck Ya!!! My cup of tea love it..
Sweet footage
The farm implement dealer said to me, "we stand behind the products we sell." I replied, how about the manure spreader?
Lol that's hilarious
Probably beside our equipment would be a better Phrase lol
Guessing they only stand behind the spreaders when not in use
good video work
great video mike I like the newer version
Nice vid mike

I could make a video of the entire process sometime I'm sure.
@@farmhandmike Mike, did you make a video about the drying process ??
Excelente vídeo
It seems you are spreading separated solids from a Digester. Question: couldn’t the treated solids be used as bedding? Then spread the liquids?
We (not in america) do just that for 120 dairy cows. It's fairly new but it works great.

How does the farm handle the liquids that are left over when the solids are removed and spread?
Excellent video, I'm curious though, do those spreaders automatically push back to clean,or does the operator keep pushing a lever to move the ram?
Newer tractors can be put into a continuous flow option when pushing the hydro switch. My guess is the tractor pretty much leaves it in continuous and you have a controller for the spreader itself in the cab
Ok, thanks a lot
When was this shot??? We just had almost three inches of rain in that area !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last Wednesday evening
Boy they are laying that stuff down THICK! But it's powdery fine :) Out here they only put a bit on, not sure why so little, but they make a pile on the edge of the field just like with lime, then I guess come through later and spread??
Great video, can that JD's handle twice the capacity spreaders, I guess so
Sweet set up. Wondered why since they can’t spread a full pass the second tractor just doesn’t finish it up instead of starting it’s own new pass.
They ran side by side just for the video. Normally they are not both in the field at the exact same time.
Love the sound of the equipment rather than some shitty music …😉
Mike I enjoyed watching the video with the Hegadorn spreader is working in the field are you on Hagedorn verticals spreader it’s my third Hegadorn spreader and it’s been a very good manure spreader and it’s taken a lot of abuse and use
Too bad they quit making them😕
Is this already fermented?
The 🌳 huggers think they invented recycling. 🤦🏻♂️👍🏼🤠
Sounds like us in Nova Scotia Canada, just dried a bit then rains
Fresh from the manure field
Why doesn't the farm spread the manure in liquid form
What dairy is this?
i believe it is convoy dairy
I would want to see a spreader twice that size behind those tractors - still a great vid tho mike

We surely wouldnt be allowed so spread that much manure on an field in germany :D, but anyways that is some nice footage :)
Neither would a dutch farmer be allowed to. You'd be in prison haha

Looks way to heavy to me. I grew up in that county. All the ditches, creeks and rivers end up in lake Erie, and it's a mess from to much run off
@@BuckWheat0591 okay that doesnt sound good to me. Is this a region with much lifestock or why is this such a problem?
@@eyyderselbe2086 nitrogen runoff, the algae blooms are tremendous.
Thats about an hour north of my area you should do a video near celina or greenville ohio
Why the big tractor for such a small spreader?
Thats the smallest tractors they have.
Could be due to footprint. Larger spreaders leave heavy prints even with floatation tires.
What?? No ground-level shots? Walking along behind the spreaders, up close and personal? Maybe a cool bypass shot right by the wheel track? C’mon, Mike!
Reminds me of my last trip to Taco Bell
I watched a tractor driver operate a spreader. Instead of the manure exiting the rear of the machine. All of the manure was thrown on top of the tractor. I was curious why he was wearing a rain sticker. No hat on. A crappy job. He was smiling lol
Hagadorne spreaders are owned by penta now
this could have super effective going on a cover crop or a crimped crop
Were I am in Minnesota the same thing happens where it dries up then we might get started in the fields but then it rains and then we can't start
I just can't understand why the Hagedorn Company won't stand behind their equipment? Lol!
😂
Since they went to a single remote for the push gate and end gate the end gates can't handle the extra hang time😕
That’s some crazy shit !
My dad and I would do that but I got stuck with no cab on the tractor that suckered
Youre young. You get no creature comforts. Been there done that. How i know all too well
So that’s what it looks like when 💩💩 hits the fan.
Lol🤣🤣
👍👍👍👍
Nice
Are they hiring
i got family in Defiance, Sherwood area.
I'm from that area little fact is it's clay dirt there
Why so much horse power en feul consumption,,,,
Do you have any idea how much energy it takes to do this?
Looks some fine muck

UA-cam recommended: Shit spreading in Ohio
It is organic manure for agriculture
ugirishnair I understand good sir
once again your near me and you havent stoped by to say hi how rude jk keep up great work hope to catch you near
Where are you at exactly?
Im in paulding county ohio just north west of vw? Im closer to van wert well scott ohio
I can pm u a adress
could do with a few loads of that stuff on my land.
Worst job cleaning the equipment afterwards
That's a load of crap
You never know it could be B.S.
It's a dairy farm more like c s :)
That looks a shitty job and more trouble than it is worth. But I guess it is the best way to get rid of it.
📺😯🤗🙋👍💯😀
Dueling shit shakers
Los remolques esparcidores son muy pequeños
I call Bullshit...
Total BS!
Hey, thanks for all the excessive over fertilization. This summer's algae bloom should be dedicated to you.
You're welcome !!
You probably should thank everyone that has a cabin or towns around the lake for over fertilizing there lawns.
