    Modern farming - all the beepbeep boopboop tingtang noises of 21st century automation followed by brute force hammering and wrenching. 👍

    I got my AAS degree in Ag-Business from DMACC in Ankeny back in '91 and worked for John Jensen who did (probably still does) custom farming all around east of Ankeny, over towards Bondurant. I enjoyed all seasons operating, maintaining, fixing his John Deere equipment, but I must say, I truly enjoyed the pleasant routine of breaking into the fields for the 1st time in the Spring! We didn't have GPS steer at that time...and with my background before Ag-Business from DMACC, I was heavy into grounds maintenance for DMACC (I was their full-time groundskeeper from 84-87) and then I did a couple stints working at a couple golf courses around and that gave me great experience to make STRAIGHT ROWS!!! I could be chisel plowing a mile-long field at that ~4 degree angle, like you said and the trick was to start at one side of the field and that kept my rows straight as an arrow - vs others who would try to do their 1st pass through the center and work to the sides - those fields never were very straight, lol! Thanks for sharing your work and excellent drone work too! My (John Deere vintage) cap's off to you!

    Thanks for the food! Many going without in the world I hear. I'll do my best to come back a Superman and stop governments from starving people to death. I believe many governments of the world are scared that a super race of good being just might pay these evil governments a visit and set them on the right path of caring about their fellow human beings. Thanks for sharing.
