- After a few days out of the fields we are back at soybeans, and spraying...
However, a late night clean out proved I should maybe wait until daylight next time...
#plant2020 #soybeans #spray2020
I know it's a different story for full-time farmers but one thing I loved about the time I spent on a tractor in my younger days was the solitude.
What Mark said “...clean the SEEDER”. What I heard “ clean the CIDR”! I watch a lot of Sandi’s sheep videos! You two are a great team. 😎
Me, too! 😂
Not just farm wives! I’m an electrician’s wife and do the same thing lol. Canola fields are just beautiful. We have some in our area and they hurt the eyes when the sun shines.
I'm in Minnesota and since we have been sheltering in place with the Pandemic, I decided to learn Canadian. Thanks for the video. You guys make great vids.
Do you like your Ag Leader equipment?? I've watched Brian's videos. I am also in Michigan. I'm not anywhere near where the 2 damns broke. It's certainly a big mess over there. Hope you have a great year with all of your crops!! Must be nice having the kids around to help!!! Have a great weekend!!
Yes, I've been using Agleader equipment for a long time and it work very well and provides lots of flexibility.
Been really busy down here in Florida. Been raining every afternoon. Great video Mr Mark. Just now getting caught up on watching. Like the hot weather I sent your way. Still waiting on cooler weather you were going to send. Have a great weekend
Working hard as usual Mark! Good job. Do you ever wonder what farmers of 200 years ago would think of today’s farming? They’d be amazed at how much just a few people can get done. ....and always working hard. Something never change. 👍❤️🚜🚜🚜🚜🌾🌾🌾
Mark - Another great video. I know this was just stuff you do every day, but you explain it in a way us city folks can understand it. That sprayer looks like a plumbers nightmare with all the connections and cable ties to keep everything in place. It's good to be able to work with your hands, but not always fun when you want to use the equipment and it's broken. Blessings to you, Sandi, and the family. Take care from Davenport, Iowa.
I'm a big fan of your wife.
You mentioned Urea fertilizer. I know exactly what you mean. I grew up helping my Dad farm avocados on our family's 2 1/2 acre homestead in Southern California. 46-0-0 urea was a staple every spring for our avocado trees. Throw a couple of cans of Urea on the base of each tree, then crank up the irrigation pump and start the sprinklers.
We'd even put the Urea in a spreader, and crank the little regulator slide gate almost closed, and spread it on our Bermuda grass lawn. Boy, it would grow like gangbusters. Mucho green! You sure had to water it aplenty for the first week or so, or you'd burn the lawn!
Thanks for the video. No one realizes how much work is involved in getting ready to plant a field. Thanks for showing that even getting ready to put seeds in the drill. Have a great day and stay healthy.
Great technology , to know where your are and how much seed per acre.
And no matter how many parts you have on the shelf there is always that one part you don't have.
Great video. 🌾
It's so awesome watching all the hard work that goes into your farming!!! I live in northern Michigan (tip of the little finger of the mitten), so we weren't effected by that horrible flooding in the middle of the state. We have a lot of cherries, apples, grapes, hops, asparagus, and assorted berries grown here. :) Have a great day! Love your videos and Sandi's as well!
I loved that Canadian accent lol so funny ! And your smile is cute 😂😂😎
Farmer wives spend a lot of time getting parts..... Lol. You all are a good team, especially with the kids stuck on site. 💜😎
that's a beautiful yellow field of flowers there. Glad to see it. Blessings.
Looks like planting is going very well. Great job
"This farm wife, Meredith Bernard" have also lost a big portion of their farm to flood waters, they use open cab tractors and small gear and they had just reclaimed fences etc from the last lot of flooding. Heart breaking to all the folks who were badly flooded.
I’m glad you finally broke something Mark , now you’ll have the cloud ☁️ hanging over you 😁 !
A 1 1/2 hour drive each way would be a 3-hour round trip. That is a great distance in my eyes. 👍
a ctully you have to consider about an hour in town too cuz the driver will need a bathroom and food plus get the part usully chat for a bit or ask questions...possibly pick up other odds and ends while there and then head back. I live an hour from the closest big town and a it always takes about 4 hours to do a simple in n out trip like a doctor appointment...shop once a week and it takes all day!
Lots of great farming channels out there but its awesome having a local one to watch. It'll be interesting to see how the early planted corn does, sure nice to finally see it
The canola field looks beautiful... I always look forward to you and Sandi’s videos, you are both so passionate about your farm’s... Sending y’all love and blessings from Pennsylvania USA...
Great video we finished planting two days ago thankfully was beginning to think we'd never get in the field as the best from south lambton county
I have to say, after watching Mark and Sandy for a while...its so smooth and relaxed to see the videos of farming and the sheap handling. Other YT Farmers are so loud or hectic or whatever, its soo fucking good to see a total normal Family doing there farmthing...so thank you all
Greetings from Michigan
I live an hour southeast of all that flooding from the dams breaking. Not directly impacted from that but it cause the river by us to back up due to all that flood water competing to flow out of the water shed. Hope 2020 straightens out soon.
So many jobs on the farm in the spring, certainly keeps the family busy. I have nicknamed you sprayer; Big Red Grasshopper. Just looking at it makes smile. From a distance the blooming canola field looks like the California mustard fields. Good luck with the crops.
Love the video's and watching what you do.
I was brought up on a farm in a small village called Hensall in North Yorkshire England.
Keep up the good work 👍👍
Great video Mark
Glad to see you didn't get a that rain that we received here in Michigan . The county i live in received 6 inches of rain in a 36 hour period . Counties east and south got 7-8 inches what a mess. Brian's was dishearting to say the least
Well done sod buster. You have a nice farm and good videos as a old plow boy l enjoy you good work on the farm. Thanks sam
Nice to see all the residue on the field breaking down and shielding the bare soil from the sun. Please remind Jack to be careful with his hands around the auger! Hitting the hopper with a rubber mallet will dislodge hung up seeds too with out the risk to his hands. Thanks for posting.
Funnily we are experimenting this year with some spring applied manure on bean ground too, though it's on rr bean ground rather than our IP beans just to be a bit safe.
God bless having prayer. In his Mercy's.
I know canola is self-pollinating, so would it be worth having a local beekeeper bring in bee hives near your fields to increase yields 10 -15%
Homey I am a bee keeper yes it will help his crop and the bees
I'm told it makes a big difference to the yield. - The Canola's looking great
nice to see you out in the feilds
Seems as though I to always have some piece of equipment that has to have something fixed on it. It gets so freakin frustrating some days!
Mark
Watched in horror how your son was cleaning out the auger hopper with his bare hands, please remind him how dangerous it is, I used to Farm in Manitoba for many years and lost part of my 3 fingers in a Farm mishap.
Be safe and we love both of you guys videos
Worry Worts
Heavy rain on and off up here 2 hours north of you today 5/29 Hope you guys are done planting and rain will do your crop some good All the best from beautiful downtown Allenford, Ontario EH see I'm Canadian too roflmao
Who needs a gym. You guys get a good workout every day. Great video. Jack safety first please. So Mark something broke and Sandi was not involved 😂 I love watching you two interact. 🤣 Queensland temperature in Brisbane today is 14 deg to 24 deg. This is our autumn. Ist day of winter Monday.
A credible imitation of a Canadian accent 😉
Night vision goggles for night missions. Trying to get you as close to 24/7 as we can. You can sleep next winter. Thinking you need a super hero outfit, maybe just a green cape. Jess and Jack have helped relieve some of the butt dragging mode.
Moving on to manure spreading, have you ever considered renting/leasing a 3 or 4 yard front end loader? The Bobcat seems to be a time bottleneck. I got dizzy watching you load the spreader.
Many demands, great video, take care of yourself!
Are you going to try double crop soybeans after the canola? Great video...
No, likely just spread some manure and plant a cover crop. The farms soil is pretty light soil so not sure how well soys would do.
Mark Brock - buckwheat cover or oats/peas?
Mark, while traveling to so many farms, have you picked up any more tips on irrigation or planting? Have you considered any of their crops to try on your farm?
We're always looking for opportunities to grow different crops, and this years experiment is winter Canola. Some of our issues with different crops is climate and our warm temperatures and humidity.
Hello Mark
Im not a farmer but I watch you all religiously. The Brocks rock!! I have a question: I have yet to see any field plowing. Have I just missed those videos or is that something you don't do?
Lost you for a bit, glad you've decided to combine with Sandi's videos as the interaction between you both is entertaining (not to say that the both of you are not as individuals). Question for you. Having finally decided to give in to my Doctor's wishes, I'm trying to eat a Keto based diet. It does appear to be better for my body and I've lost 20 lbs without any real effort other than avoiding high carbohydrate foods. I keep seeing recipes that call for black soya beans as they are considerably lower in carbohydrates. Before this, I was only familiar with the yellow or sometimes refereed to as white beans. The black variety is proving hard to find and I've only been able to source it from the internet. As you are experimenting with some of your acreage, is this something you would consider?
Here it is the first week of November and it's 85 degrees with the humidity it's well into the 90s in the swamplands of Florida. I'm laughing at how you're just finally warming up. That and all the white skin is making me laugh too.
I miss farming with my family. Hahahahaha. If you ever need help give me a shout!!
Mark when you say it’s hot, how hot is it. As l live in Queensland, Australia it can get really hot as you would know from your visit recently.
It was 30 celcius on Wednesday. It went from 10 degrees to 30 in one day. Too quick a transition for me especially when humidity is 98% without raining. I did get my little 1 acre of grass cut. Cheers from Sydenham, Ont.
kate colborne l live in a little town called Tin Can Bay it’s on the edge of Heritage listed Fraser Island. Our last summer it got to a high of 46 degrees Celcius high humidity also. It’s just coming into our winter and we hover around low teens to mid 20’s during the day. Enjoy your summer.☀️☀️
First I love Mark brock
Great video God bless you all.
Working in dirt and your getting dirty, it could happen!
God bless.
I can’t believe Id get to “virtually” farm great education at 61 in Scottsdale AZ
Did you bring Sandi a latte with the seed?
Better then in California some rain is better then no rain . Right now we’re in November and it’s hot feels like spring
my hat is off to all you farmers out there every where thank you.
Still on my first sip of coffee in the first hour and a half!
Dirty is good clean means it’s raining and we can’t get in the fields 😁
Yeah, I`m right. With my thought that this is a part of the sprayer.......... Greets Thomas
The technology is amazing.
Buzzinga!
How does that Haircut feel ? I Bet it felt really good to get the Haircut and the razor on the neck. 👍
It's fantastic!
I feel bad for everyone in Michigan. My hubby and I are from Michigan (around Lansing) but we currently live in Maryland.
Hey, your pretty good at learning Canadian !
I thought only Sandy broke stuff LoL
😱😳 Mark lol
Jack sticking his hands down in that auger scares me. Not good.
Did Sandi have to go to Forest again for sprayer parts that is a long drive .
Ramy? Search UA-cam for angry rams, from a guy in NZ. Are you like his rams?
I'll have to do that.
that is a long drive
Flash Gordon! ⚡️
Is it you leave the dirty jobs for your kids? They young and they should be flexible.
Sandi I'm your people too
Do you lease land ?
Yes, most of the land we run is leased from family.
I hear you and Sandi talking about the Joker...what is it and what does it do?
they did a full video about their joker a week ago (I think...maybe longer? time's running together w/the quaranteens/stay @ home orders). Go to their main YT channel & see if a quick search for "joker" pulls it up. :-)
here you go: ua-cam.com/video/UCpSuZaOdwg/v-deo.html
Urea N46 yes I like it
Pleeeease start making vlogs again
Thats why we have children...to do the jobs we are old and not as flexible to do
What are edible beans? Is there another name I would know them by in the USA?
White beans, black beans, navy beans, pinto beans, etc. edible beans to differentiate from soybeans because most farmers who say ‘beans’ mean soybeans not black, navy, pinto, kidney, etc. beans
To add to C SA's comment, this area of Ontario grows a lot of food grade beans for human consumption. So apart from the "dry" edible beans there's also further south a lot of green beans and peas grown, and Mark's area northward we grow human food grade soybeans as well, which are known as non GMO and identity preserved. IP means the buyer of the beans wants only a specific breed of soybean so they need to be properly harvested and stored separately so they don't get mixed with different kinds.
Thank you both for the education. I’m hoping the navy beans do well. I have been looking for them for 4 months and can’t find any here in California.
Both did an excellent job explaining edible beans
Mark Brock They sure did!
What are eatable beans?
Here is a link to a repeating sparrow trap. It has the best reviews. I don’t know how Sandi puts up with those sparrows in the barn. Jack could be the official sparrow trapper. www.sparrowtraps.net/store/
Ask Jack to watch the Harmless Farmer to see what happens when you get your hands TOO CLOSE to an auger.☹️🚑
you lost me when you said God's name in vain!
