    I have a request for a video.. I would like to see you all sit down and tell us about the history of the Larson Farm. To hear your grandpa tell things when he started farming and so on..

      I agree heritage is a huge part of family farms and disgusting the heritage is good for the oldest and the youngest generations. Gives perspective as to what it was like and how it is. Also makes the older generation proud of the way it is because of them and makes the younger proud of maintaining the legacy.

      Love from India, There are many things going on in organic farming and your grandpa witnessed the chemical era and experienced that. WE don't need hybrid production as mechanised farm started producing very high and hence production increased. Big Land was available in your Grandpa's period and now that is becoming limited due to mechanization. But since farming is more risky, farmers are reducing in number. Farmers will increase in next 20 years ... now its time to study and go for history lessons, the knowledge of propaganda and making people afraid is going on ... in this era the practical experience of Grandpa and your father is very important. A series of video can be produced with his interviews... you need to involve the farming culture ... the change in language in last 60-70 years ... change in customs and change in festivals ... change in demography of the environment will be large series of the videos... one planned video is a big book.... no need to plan but flow of the videos will give chance to next generation to learn many things.

Eric has ground preparation caught up for the planters if I understand correctly. And now he finished spraying the corn ground so Dougo can go back to more planting. Busy times for everyone on the farm. The rock box you just got is going on the new tractor???? You folks go thru a lot of tractor fuel. How much fuel can you hold on the farm???? Tell Eric to get some sleep before he falls over. Thanks for the video. Was interesting. Thanks to Nicole for editing as always. We think of you always Nicole and trust you are feeling better all the time. Take care of yourself. My best to all the Larson’s during this busy time. You take care and be safe. Thanks.

    Does anybody else think the “Swede” looks and sounds like Adam Baldwin? Enjoy your nap Eric.

    Thanks for the channel. Low air ride on a big rig is like having a bull for breeding cows with no nut sack. Why do people castrate big rigs??? Put the big nice air bags on the truck with 11r 24.5's Not much clearance on a regular big rig to begin with why cut the nuts off????? Hope you guys get the T600 KW running. W900L KW a good replacement.
