Caleb Eigenberg like I said, I’ve had help getting into it and I’m very thankful for that. Even then, it’s been tough to get into but along with working another job, it can be done. It’s not easy, but it’s rewarding to be doing the one thing I’ve always wanted to do.
The worse thing would be as you establish yourself you need large lines of credits for everything you need from seed to fertilizer, chemicals to parts and machinery upgrades and incidentals. If you dont have a prior redit rating or a good one you are sunk. Ps.l wish that the case ih brand would use the steiger green fror the biggset tractors as that is their heritage and it is a great colour and was a great product.
US. Veteran who is becoming a 1st Gen farmer…of his own land. My paternal side were sharecroppers from the 1850’s until my birth. You definitely are giving me inspiration and information. I appreciate your work sir.
Best of luck, I have had cattle and hay since I was 14. I am going on 40 and don't farm as big as you but I admire someone having a dream and going after it. Subdivision and developers are eating the land up fast around me. They make it to where you have to work full-time and farm on the side to be able to afford to farm and have a family.
Man you living the dream. Keep on keeping on. We farm rice here in Louisiana but my parents forced me to go to college. Now I'm working in a field I hate. Still go back on the weekends and get dirty. Once a farmer always a farmer.
Awesome! Keeping it simple! Absolutely beautiful equipment!! Much Respect from Fulton County IN. 🇺🇸 May God Bless you and your farm for generations to come!
Just found your videos, I started the same way back in 81, grew up a town kid but helped a farmer all though high school and married a farm girl that wanted to farm, bought the machinery on contract and went from there, just retired last fall after 39 yrs, I never got too big and had to get a job in town but after getting job I was happy to hobby farm. Good luck in your adventure
Pretty good setup you have Mr. Clarke. Super proud and excited to see young and motivated people getting into Agriculture in any form. I hope and pray that you have the greatest success and blessing upon your family and farm. God bless
Amazing! I subscribed and who knows, maybe you’ll have more people helping you out because of this UA-cam thing. And Over 300+ subscribers on your first video, Amazing Job! Wish your farm the best
Awesome to see that getting into farming without have a family farm passed to you is still possible, might be hard, not impossible though, interested in the content you'll be putting out
Really nice line of equipment for just getting started. Looking forward to seeing lots more of your vids. Be careful with cranking out xtra horses on your tractors, Things can go bad if other components are not rated for the extra HP.
Absolutely love your channel man, you're living the dream against all odds and with hard work no doubt. I took a long path through another career field just in hopes to get to where you are some day. Thanks for sharing!
Nice to see a tr88 work on a lot of tr combines at my work. Always check out the unloading shaft for slop and clean out separator clutch disk every year. Just little information if you didn’t know. Good video from a 4th gen farmer
David Larson yes the augers seem to wear fast on them, put a new upright auger in the grain tank last year and it needs the tube replaced on the unload now before next fall
Not bad for your first video man! Already made it in some of our recommended! My only recommendation for you is to be careful with your transitions while your still talking if you mess up and have to try and piece them together try to do it in between sentences to make the video flow a little better. Or when you plan of talking for awhile about a specific thing think ahead and capture multiple takes if you mess up! Keep it up man nice farm nice tractors you’ll go somewhere! Good luck!!
I reallybenjoyed your video and story. You dont see or hear manu stories like that where some onegives a young man a leg up into farming The cost from scratch is enormous today . In Australia it would never happen at least not much these days. Good luck a lots of fun doing what you love. Dont let the rough times get to you.
I’m not a farmer but I like agricultural activity👍🏻 i’m from South Jersey and I have a 18 acre farm at least out . I do have a lot of farmers around me though . Farmers grow corn soy beans spinach and tomatoes and a lot of peppers👍🏻Take care now
Oh hell yeah brother first generation and you started at Rock Bottom Man I'm just saying but you got one hell of a cool lineup big respect man👍👍👍👊👊 your channel is going to blow up man I promise you that👍👍
Don't listen to negative people. I could have had a good place to start taking over the farm from my uncle, but he said "You don't want to do this, the work is too hard and there's no money. Go to college and get a good job." Like a fool I listened. Now I'm 37, spent 15 years paying down student loans doing something it turns out I hated. Left a $25/hr job I was miserable at to get back into ag. I'd much rather be happy and broke any day. Life is too damn short.
I'm a first time viewer to your channel, I subscribed immediately. Congratulations on getting started on your own! I look forward to watching future videos!!! Good luck in 2020, I sure hope it goes a little better than last year.
You have an 1845 Uniloader and you don't use it??? The most useful piece of equipment on any farm!!! We've run my 1845B almost every day since I got it in 1990! They're great for working on equipment..... I'm not as bullet proof as I once was, I don't play Superman any more. I let the loader do the work!!!! Nice red Steiger!!! Nice sprayer too! Don't see many tow behind here, lots of self propelled... All kinds of different manufacturers and home made.
Great to see you succeeding. I'm in Indiana also and my son wants to get into farming but we aren't farmers either. We may have to come visit you sometime and get some pointers for my son.
keep up the good work IH RULES i farmerd for a while until the big guys ran me out i was farming 1100 acres at one time for a few years then everybody wanted cash rent i said no way then it was just a short time i was shut down i work for farmers now i would do anything to get back into again
I went ahead and subscribed. Will be interested to see where this channel leads. I live down in Haubstadt so not too far from you and end up in Washington for business and pleasure every now and then.
If your ever get your own self propped spraer, get a Spra Coupe thats what my father and me have ,and it works great. What ever your do do not buy a John deer spraer becaeuse if there hydostic drive blows it can cost up to about $15,000.
I have used both kinze and john deere planters and much prefer the kinze system as it is simple. I would suggest when you replace the discs that you at least check thee. Brushes It would be well worth your while to replace both the seed placement brushes and disc scrapers. You will most likely find if you dont do the scrapers at the same time you will have to do them soon after as they wont match the knew discs
I hope you honour and thank Caleb Eigenberg everyday for making your dream happen. For with out him seeing something in you, would never have had your dream come true.
Just found and subed ya ! I'm up in northwest in Hanna,IN look forward to follow you , I live in farm country and most of the farmers I grew up with didn't have daughters or the kids don't want to put the work in to take over the farm !
I’m born and raised on a small family farm in Lebanon IN and work full time for some family friends farm also named Clark spelled different they farm about 4500ac row crop and 800ac alfalfa haylage
Congratulations to you, new to your channel and I like what I see. If you are using a phone to record I think u need to hold it long way when recording like a TV......
did u get these tractors on a deal or what! can u explain a bit the finiancial side of entering the business from ur side. equipment finance and land purchase or lease .please
It’s impressive to see a first gen Farmer with all that equipment, and you don’t see many of these first gen farmers because it’s so hard to start

He uses his equipment but more than likely had a lot of funds going into this

The legend himself joins the UA-cam crew. Sweet rigs
I think I’m going to enjoy this journey with you and everybody else that’s subscribed 👌😎👍🇦🇺

As a first gen farmer myself, major props man. Really hard to break into this industry without family involvement, have a lot of respect for you
Me too!! I've been telling my buddy forever I want to become a farmer he says you have to be born into it so this guy gives me major inspiration.
Good for you. It's nice to see a guy that hasn't had everything handed to him. Best of luck. Hard work and a sharp pencil always leads to success
We always replace inside duals with new tires and move the slicker old tires to the outside. Duals are more weight distribution than traction anyway.
Can you do like a video where you talk about how you started the farm in details
Awesome! Keeping it simple!
Absolutely beautiful equipment!!
Much Respect from Fulton County IN. 🇺🇸
May God Bless you and your farm for generations to come!
Nice growth for only three seasons, my family's farm is in its 2nd generation with 650 acres. You might pass us soon lol
Awesome, so many people act like you can't start a farm these days
Just found your videos, I started the same way back in 81, grew up a town kid but helped a farmer all though high school and married a farm girl that wanted to farm, bought the machinery on contract and went from there, just retired last fall after 39 yrs, I never got too big and had to get a job in town but after getting job I was happy to hobby farm.

Thanks for the video. You are very fortunate to find an opportunity like you did to start farming, I hope it works out in the future
This is my plan in the future. Great to see someone making videos of my one day dream. Hope you can go into more detail of how you got started👍
Amazing! I subscribed and who knows, maybe you’ll have more people helping you out because of this UA-cam thing. And Over 300+ subscribers on your first video, Amazing Job! Wish your farm the best

If you need help this year. I’m down in Evansville,IN. I work for cold beer.
Great video! From one UA-camr to another you did a really good job on your first video! Looking forward to what you make next!
Absolutely love your channel man, you're living the dream against all odds and with hard work no doubt. I took a long path through another career field just in hopes to get to where you are some day. Thanks for sharing!
I’m a huge case fan and your farm is awesome keep up the good work man
Hey keep up that farming. Hard road ahead since your first gen but you will conquer.
I started my farm with a pair of 8950 Magnums and a couple littl Maxxums. All excellent tractors. You’re on right track, don’t go chasin new paint
Nice to see a tr88 work on a lot of tr combines at my work. Always check out the unloading shaft for slop and clean out separator clutch disk every year. Just little information if you didn’t know. Good video from a 4th gen farmer
David Larson yes the augers seem to wear fast on them, put a new upright auger in the grain tank last year and it needs the tube replaced on the unload now before next fall
Pretty cool to see someone younger do this. Keep it up!

Well I started with a 69 4020 row crop and a 6 row John Deere tractor. You got to start some where👍
