    Join us as we gear up for the hay harvest season! In this video, we take you through the process of transforming our equipment from potato farming to hay harvesting. Watch as we:
    - Remove the potato beds from our 10-wheelers and install the hay beds.
    - Unhook the potato cultivator to make space for the new attachments.
    - Take the dual wheels off all the tractors to ensure they are ready for the hay fields.
    This detailed step-by-step guide showcases the hard work and precision involved in preparing our farm for a successful hay harvest. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more farming adventures and tips!

    As tall as you are I would think you could open the back window and lift the quick hitch locks from inside! Back in the old west everyone had a 6 shooter in a holster on their hip, now it's a pair of plyers! Too bad the duels don't go on as easily! Love the content and would watch more.

    Just came across your channel and it is so interesting. Back in the day, don't know if I hauled more bulk potatoes or frozen fries. JR Simplot, McCains, Frito Lay, CH Robinson and on and on. My wife and I have recently retired and Idaho is on our consideration list of possible relocation spots. Do you hire seasonal employees of any type?

    The lever to help disconnect hydraulics must be a time and hassle saver. I remember as a kid fighting to disconnect hydraulics lines.

      No because we use mostly surface water. But that is going to be devastating to the farming community and the economy. I might make an episode about that when I get more info.

    Fantastic video how much expense per acre of potatoes and how much profit in your states

    • @RockyMountainFarmer
      @RockyMountainFarmer  3 місяці тому

      The profit varies from year to year because of contract prices but I know that when we plant 25 sacks, we will yield about 500 sacks to the acre

    Buen día, cuando mire que estaban cambiando las llantas del tractor, me acorde de una vez que estaba trabajando donde estaba sembrada la papa, se me salió una llanta del frente, ya que la placa que va entre el rin y el tractor, estaba defectuoso y con el movimiento continuo se desgasto, hasta que se salió la llanta, me quede a medio circulo, en eso me llama un conocido del otro Rancho, con el que estaba asociado el dueño de la planta donde trabajaba antes de que me mandaran al Rancho, me dice, -Oye! como se le hace para acomodar la llanta para que de la medida a los surcos de papa., como no estaba muy contento por lo que me había pasado, de dijo., -Cuantos trabajan en el rancho donde estas? 6, 8 personas, voy a creer que entre todos ustedes, sepan menos que yo solo., si me molesto ya que entre mi hermano y yo, cambiábamos las llantas del tracto y las poníamos a la medida y un día me toco estar en el otro rancho cuando estaban cambiando unas llantas, la verdad me desesperaron por que entre todos le echaron montón y aun así no podían, e digo, tengo un montón de anécdotas, Saludos y buen día.
