Case Sprayer? 🤔
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- ** Mike heads out with a (new to him) Case sprayer and tries to do a burn off to get ready for seeding... But as you can see there's a few bugs to work out and few upgrades the sprayer needs in Mike's opinion.
Also it's quite wet and Mike is concerned he ll get his sprayer dirty 😆🤷♂️

That is wild how much water is sitting in your fields.
Mike, send that water to Nick n Scott.
I think he would send it to his south farm first
@welker farms I know! It's crazy, totally the opposite of back home 😆
@@garrykoch9526 he needs it on the main farm first…
@WelkerFarms it's like lakes there
Mike is like how I play Farming Simulator, "What is the widest, most expensive machine you got? Ya, I'll take 2!"
An A-B line in that field would look like Chapel scribbled it with a crayon 🖍.
Happy Father's Day, Mike and Happy Rain Day for the southern farm.
Thankyou! 🙂
I’m sitting here trying to figure out why my sprayer is chiming like that sitting still filling up, but it’s your sprayer chiming. 😂
Sweet sweet rain by the looks of it at the main farm
Same here..always lots of rain up north
Can't wait for the north farm videos this summer🤗
Mike you need a mud drill for getting where the big one wont. 24-36ft flexicoil on 12" spacing and open back shanks, 300bu or so cart pull-between with duals on it.
Thank you from Missouri!! Doing a great job of keeping up this year.
You should give us the rundown on what seeding deadlines are, how crop/hail insuance work, and what income/GARs insurance is and what your perspective on all that. 😀
June 1st..not covered by insurance
@@Northern_Farmer it is in Saskatchewan. There are several crops with June 20 seeding deadlines.
Looks like a good place for a fish farm. It seems like you have the same luck I have if you wouldn’t have did the dugout it would probably be just as dry as the south farm. So good luck with the planting I’ll keep my fingers crossed for ya.
I'm not sure we would have seen them water runs without you pointing them out 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Prediction: All Mike's equipment is going to be very dirty by the time seeding is over and it will be the least of his worries.
Happy Father's Day Mike!
That amount of water is amazing. I know a guy that bought land in North Central MT just to get away from to much moisture in Minnesota. A different world. I have NEVER seen to much moisture.
I would buy a drone to get a bird's eye view of the field, make a plan, and plant the larger dry areas. Better to plant something than nothing...
@George Jones Are you saying Mike has used a drone for some of his videos.
If so I must have missed that since I thought he only shot video with his cell phone.
Nice looking sprayer Mike
It is interesting the different soil types that in your area, standing water you wouldn't even try to drive through in other areas.
It is too bad that you cannot average your rainfall across your two farms. There would be bumper crops all around.
Can tell it was real cold and wet with the small lime green leaves . Looks like terrible spring conditions
Mike you should do before and after with the light upgrade
Somewhere between the north farm and south farm. The conditions are perfect
Got spoiled the last few years with it extremely dry around there and able to work through all the sloughs and creeks
Great video Mike
We were very similar here in north western Alberta, had everyone running around on quads making ditches to try and get the water moving
you need to get your brothers crop duster up there. haha
Mike you need a drone, so we can see the hills vs the equipment and all the flooded ground.
Mike. What a great environment for ducks.🤣🤣
Heck there's a whole lot of water over there holly cow.🤔
Good luck 🚜 mike
Our STX came with xenon lights on the back and I like them a lot better than the LEDS. They seem to cut through the dust better.
mike is like its muddy here and my dad is making 2 foot ruts like ohh its dry here
That land you have up north should be a pasture field
Would make nice hay
Might try a 40 ft drill to get in and out of some spots !!
So glad we had a 30ft with a smaller tank so seed with this year, still a mess though
Holy wow that's crazy wet 😳 darn good luck trying to seed maybe hook both your big tractors to the drill ??
Having gotten my 4430 buried in a situation that showed no moisture issues during my days as a commercial applicator, this episode about made me throw up with nervousness in my stomach.
You must have about six inches of top soil with bedrock under it. I wouldn’t have made it half a mile without getting stuck here in north central Montana.
Well whatever crop you do manage to get in the ground up north should have a decent yield with all the rain there has been up there.
Oh Mike to be so young, I remember when halogen lights came out and wow what an up grade!!! oh yea back in the day - spaying sucked back then too!!!
You should consider putting tile through those water runs to drain the water below the surface instead of on top of it. Then you could be in the field easier and sooner.
Waited so far refreshing your Page again n again then Finally
at how wet it is, you might have to put twin floaters on 4 corners of your sprayer just to be safe
Sounds like a field that needs drain tile
Like pioneers
🍻
I think the best thing to do for this season is right off planting the north farm do to all the wet ground.if they keep getting a ton of rain then you stand a high chance of drowned out of the seeded acres.
If you don’t seed you don’t get crop insurance
That is true.but on the other hand you only get a certain percentage of your expected crop.
If this were my field, I would consider pumping out some of those ponds ....
That’s illegal
That’s what we’re facing here in south central Manitoba .
That sprayer was built about 30 miles west from me. In Benson mn. I'm pretty sure anyway. Also an Excavator as in a tracked backhoe and a big tile plow on tracts, plus a few thousand feet of plastic tile and you'd be surprised how fast it dries out. Pattern tiled every 50 ft and you could farm any lake as long as you have someplace else to send the water. Tile only takes the excess water tthat the soil can't hold. Southern Minnesota is tiled extensively.
Have to have a place to move the water to that won't cause expensive problems for someone else.
@@wssides water is everyones concern. If one is downhill of someone else, he or she is already dealing with it to some degree. Most water sheds have a creek or river that is public. Here in Minnesota, we have public ditches that serve the same purpose and are maintained by the public as well. There are public tile here as well. They are usually large tile like 10 inch or better. The landowners here usually use 4, 6 and 8 inch tile with the 4 and 6 inch tile usually spaced every 50 or 60 feet. But politically it is getting tougher to tile. From the 30s to the 60s it was drain and farm to feed the world. Now you can't because animals and fish are more important than people. Animals and fish don't pay any taxes but that's besides the point. The world we live in. And us farmers just have to roll with it and die when we're done.
It has been a very strange spring to say the least
Just send it
LED is the only way to go.
Mike time to put thought into drainage. Investing in the dirt pays off way more then equipment
Man we got another 2" overnight here again
Nothing wrong with Thatgood machine 👍
Mike i am surprised your north farm doesnt have drainage tiles considering it gets more moisture.
That country doesn't get enough rain most years to put tile in.
You don't really hear of tile up here
Tile is too expensive with the value of crops grown in the north country. It’s more cost effective to farm more land than put tile in.
Yeah good thing there isn't a stuck pot on that farm...you wouldn't be sending it😂😂 Good luck
Wow it’s wet out your way too! Would love to see your Can Am Maverick! 👍 Can Am build quality stuff! I used to have a Cam Am Outlander Max quad, awesome 4 wheeler!
I still like my older commander compared to the new ones
you and welkers testing the new sprayer, very cool
Ah mike it’s just mud, that what they make water for to clean when your done. If you think that’s a dirty sprayer trying going corn after a rain at 16 MPH you’ll find mud everywhere.
Haha it's true I know, but my OCD still struggles with it 😆
wish i was near you and could do it i would come and do the areas you do not spray i have a 750 john deere with 35 gallon boom sprayer with 25 foot booms with room to make them wider we could mix the spray up hot where i did not have to worry about mixing right and fill and go
Could you just broadcast and scratch in the crop , there by being able to use more of the ground? I realize it wouldn’t be as accurate as a drill , but it might be quicker and able to get to those areas you can’t with a big drill.
Try a Cat D9 with a subsoiler to pan bust the depth, and get some water off the surface. Amazing the amount of land you have lost.
I'm with you, I hate getting machines dirty too... have to work on something needs to be cleaned, dirty windows, and just unsightly eating on the paint.
The name of this video should be "And another watter run"
You should get an old 4x4 square body just to get dirty
I would argue halogen lights are better at night then leds. We run Xenon on everything now, leds are just completly unusable where we use them. Might be that we had bad leds
Unbelievable how weather varies from district to district. So hope you can get a crop of something in. Mike I have a question, what is purple on GPS screen? Hope family doing well.
6 hours difference is a lot for weather
Hi Mike
Are u sure you’re on a Field, not in a swamp with some dried spots?!? ;))
If you don't like mud on your machine you would never cope with a wet UK potato or sugar beet harvest. You would be rocking in the corner of the field.
Mike are those the sprayers youve been waiting for?
La vidéo est bien intéressante 😀
There are a lot off water runs ons the field get it drey?
Where is Lee's tiolet?
👌🏼
Not going to grow in the bag, mud it in.
What size nozzles tips do you use?
Some drain tile?
Hello Mike 💪👍🇮🇹
Maybe you should plant grass and pasture this field, or maybe raise ducks............:-)
😆😆😆 Too soon Marv
@@mikemitchell2554 maybe... an unlimited number of ducks?
Mike they spend millions down here moving dirt and leveling the fields for rice. I think you need to buy 4 of the big carts that move the dirt and level out all the low spots. Something else I was going to ask you, I went by a winter wheat field the other day, are you familiar with the rice heads for the combines? They were using them to cut winter wheat. From what I understand, these heads are fantastic. They’re baby blue in color, and I can’t remember the name, but there’s a lot of rice farmed that use them down here. It doesn’t have the real like a normal head does, instead the tops closed, I’m not sure how it cuts but it’s awesome from what I here. Have you looked at seeding by plane or helicopter?
Shelbourn Reynolds stripper header?
@@briancarey3454 Thanks Brian from what I see in the winter wheat and rice fields, the rice and wheat is gone. Not sure how they clean so well, but that may be something Mike & Ashton and family can look into.
Being it’s a specialized head make it would work for other crops also? Thanks, I have to look them up so I can see how they work.
Soo mike I have two questions, if the south farm is to dry, north farm to wet, is it time to find a middle farm ? 😂 second is are you gonna try the new 4450 patriot
Hey Mike, it looks like your fields are kinda wet.
Morning
Wow Mike, when we’re kids we want no training wheels, and now that we’re getting long in the tooth, we want the training wheels back. What’s next the Old Folks home?lol just kidding young man, Ashton will get a kick out of it!…
Red is best
An aero view would be awesome with the camera
Those wheels @4:10 is angled the wrong way. They should be trailing not leading…
will you clear out any of the tree lots and rows? Could you then dig ponds in the low areas, o do you get the big rains often enough to worry about flooding? Thx
The ponds would be full with spring runn off in one day
👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍!!!
Are you packing your rubber boots in case you have to get out as a result of getting stuck ?👢
You should try rice this year 😃
Have got some rain in medicine hat and have more coming. Have your got any by swift?
Mike I have a question. Did u ever get ur 2 new sprayers that u ordered last year that somebody screwed up
No, went Cases sprayers instead
@@mikemitchell2554 well at least ur sorted for now
Most people around here don't. That's why!!
I thought it said crap on the side nope says cap my bad lol
Maybe you should plant Rice.
Mike, I have a question, “where does the water run” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👨🌾👨🌾🚜🚜
Hey mike you need some more green and yellow in your life 🚜🚜🚜 lol 😆
So you're dealing with the dry conditions like the welkers get at one farm and then the other farm you're dealing with the wetness like the larsons and millennial farmers are
Hey Mike, I have a question. Where do you sleep up north. Do you have a house or something up there?
Yes we do, Ashtyn and her brother have a place together prior to her and I meeting.
