- Welcome to Twin Elm Farms! On this channel we show what its like to farm in southern Manitoba, Canada. The farm consists of Kendal, wife Lindsay their kids Hayley, Parker, Jaxon and Brock. Kendal's older brother Darryl, wife Heather, their kids Mackenzie, Dylan, Quin and Ryenne. With our right hand man Pieter. We have other part time help throughout the season, Arch (combine operator) Terry (field work) and Rob (cattle help). We crop corn, soybeans, wheat, oats and canola. We have a cow/calf operation of mostly Simmental and Shorthorn with some other breeds in the mix. Hope you enjoy our content, please subscribe, give it a thumbs up and love hearing comments.
Great to see the combines rolling. Drone shots were excellent. Thanks for the video.
I liked the fun fact about why you swath the oats and not just harvest them directly. You do a great job with your videos. Thanks for sharing!
So much space, land. The horizon is easily seen miles in the distance. What a sight to see ! Thank you for sharing.🐂
glad to see your combining
That was an awesome video Kendal/Darryl combines out harvest begins and the was a great start to harvest
Nice to see the drone footage first day of combining and it was spectacular
Really enjoyed the video as always looking forward to the next one
Best wishes from Ireland 🇨🇮
Thanks for your video for us UA-cam geekers and that looks like a good oats crop.
Why not dump into the semi trailers on the go instead of running back and forth with a tractor and cart-?
Less augering of the grain would mean less fines in the grain as well as other advantages.
We often fight mud and semi trailers don't travel in the the field like tractor and cart.
Always good to see new Gleaner combines hit the field for the first time. Looking forward to next year when you will have the T81 models.
Oh dear, I would love that too happen but we are going to need the crops to do a lot better or an improvement in markets. These machines should do for a while.

@John-nc4bl fields are often soft making it tough on trucks. To drive a semi we need special licenses to drive where as tractor and cart if you are willing you can learn. We also use a scale on cart to weigh every bushel that leaves the field
We ordered oat straw last year from someone last year. It had so many oats in it that our cattle pens look planted...by mistake I used some in the chicken barn for bedding and it sprouted...in February growing green grass in the barn.
That can happen when combining in tough conditions, straw isn't dry enough... oats combines the best when hot and sunny
Another great video! Only 80 acres? LOL Thinking ahead to all of the straw you need during calving.
Yep, we will bale wheat straw for bedding. Makes for better bedding then oats straw.
Nice to see gleaners back in the field in nice crop what is the yield. Good video very relaxing watching combines picking up big swaths.
That field ran a little better than 150bu/ac
That makes a lot of since, nothing worse than a heavy rain and wind knock down the field just when ready to combine.
excellent!!
I love seeing those Gleaners! What size rear tires are you running? They look nice!

Great video. Interesting to see you spreading oat straw.. do you use oat straw for livestock or Wheat straw?
We use oats straw for roughage, has some feed value in the straw. Wheat straw for bedding, it absorbes the moisture better. We have lots of oats from the last 2 years.
A lot of rain bring on weeds
What variety of oats is that? That crop is insane

@@TwinElmFarms ok. Yeah. That’s the variety I grew too. Yield is not even 1/3 of yours though. Didn’t rain here until last night.
Why can’t you bale that for straw
We prefer wheat straw for bedding. Oats straw has like an oily film on it, and we find it doesn't soak up the moisture as well. Neighbor likes oats straw cause it lasts longer.
