Farmer on the Prairie is about my life on our central Illinois farm. My name is Seth and I am a young farmer with the desire to get things done and to keep the farm running smoothly. The farm is 740 row crop acres and 100 acres of pasture. We run about 100 grass-fed cattle and 1500 meat birds a year. Throughout my videos, you will get to know Dad, MommaD, and Sister. My brothers Josiah and Luke help us whenever there is a big project so they can feel important. We also have a part time employee Ben who is the comic relief. Because so many different things happen on our farm, there is never a dull moment. So tap that Subscribe button and come along for the ride!

Aerial segment was awesome. Great drone work, music, and editing. Could watch for hours. Kept rewinding to make it last longer. I know this channel is a whole family effort and all of you should be very proud.

[@icebabysnocain]

At least you got the repair made and then some harvesting. Haircut looks good. The farm is lucky to still have a guy who can multitask while your dad is off doing other things. Sounds like your nose is still plugged up.. Good video. Peace.

[@farmerontheprairie]

Went from a cold to allergies!

[@jimmyspoon1477]

Good vids enjoy the channel keep up the good work and keep the vids comin. Be safe 👍✌

[@stephenkennedy9322]

Would be nice to see many times what you say you are doing. ie see what Junk yard combine place looks like to see how many old machines laying around or showing if you really replaced tube on grain Auger ? 👍

[@Fedharrison5634]

Good luck on the crop..& Stay Safe..

[@garlandhenry6792]

Well done video

[@farmerontheprairie]

Thank you!

[@dougdiplacido2406]

This summer sure has gone by fast. Seems you were just planting a little while ago and now you are harvesting. The drone views are fantastic. How was your yield this year? Thanks for another great video. Hopefully tomorrow will be more successful for you.

[@CuriousEarthMan]

thanks for the great video! Is there any advantage to combining beans at a different angle than they were planted? is there a disadvantage to combining beans in the same rows they were planted? Thank you!

[@gussoefje6430]

What song is playing at first in the drone videos. Good video and cool to see.

[@blindwisdom9665]

If I was there I would I love that type of work...I work for food cigars and maintain dew...lol

[@celli2191]

I hope your channel blows up so you can buy a new Combine.

[@farmerontheprairie]

That would be awesome! Not complaining, but that's on our wish list.

[@LMDProductionsOfficial]

Question: why leave the auger out in the field?

[@jacobbaker4289]

What traits are you using? Xtend or Enlist?

[@KamilROfficial]

Yo good vid keep it up 👌

[@farmerontheprairie]

Thank you

[@darpub]

What do y’all do with the stubble that comes out of the combine? On any grain crop

[@farmerontheprairie]

Depending on the type of stubble/chaff we might bale it and use it for bedding.

[@JeffStewart78..]

When are you going to talk about what they did with your truck while you were gone?

[@jstbig1]

No Ben ??
☹️

[@farmerontheprairie]

The other farmer keeps him very busy during harvest.

[@randaljohnson580]

Look's like you drilled at a angle then combine straight. We are doing that to but drill at a 4 degree angle. Really feeds in good then.

[@steveadams99708]

Maybe it's just me Seth, but it looked like there was considerable more trash in the beans? Good video. Thanks

[@justwondering5540]

Flatland no rocks Who do you know lol

[@rickhoward3520]

LOOKED LIKE YOU HAD A LOT OF TRASH IN WITH THE BEANS

[@NewBeRVer]

That is some dusty s*&$t. Wow.

[@robinjchambers845]

That field is weed infested, dockage will be very high.

[@b.t.3780]

Well you could go walk in front of his combine and pull them all out for him!

[@craigadair128]

I think it is water hemp a roundup resistant weed

[@BWYinYang]

Combine eats it up and throws out back. Grain looks clean other than chafts.

[@kdh1309]

Music sucks !

[@farmerontheprairie]

Thank you!
