    I'm from Milwaukee Wisconsin originally. I'm a city boy but a nature lover at heart. I spent a few summers on dairy and grain farms in rural Wisconsin.
    Case equipment is made in Racine, Wisconsin. Wow how modern they are now. Montana is one of my favorite places ⛰

    Thanks for going to the National FFA convention. My son and his friends were thrilled to meet you guys and for the signed bobble heads. (Apparently, many others were thrilled also as he said you guy were very busy). I’m glad that the people my kids watch and look up to work for a living.

    Since you are not able to irrigate, do you leave half your land lie fallow while planting in the other half to allow moisture to build up in the unplanned half?
    This would require keeping the weeds down on the half not planted. Does No-till work under this strategy? It would seem one would be required to keep the weeds off the unplanned half which, I guess, would be accomplished with weed killer and No-till. Maybe you get enough moisture during the winter to allow planting 100% of your land each year? Or at least this provides the largest profit return which is what has to be considered.
    🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 for our farmers for good health and weather that is conducive to growing crops. ✌🇺🇸🖖

    You mentioned the National FFA Convention. I was a member of the National FFA Concert Band in the fall of 1958. It was an awesome experience for a 15 year old from central Michigan. In the 50s the National FFA Concert Band was made up of two FFA members from each state in the Union. FFA members who were also musicians auditioned for the band at each respective state convention in the early spring. The National Convention was held in October in the following fall at the same time as the International Livestock Show in Kansas City. Both the Livestock Show and the FFA Convention were huge events in my High School years.

    Leg Arms…..I was told years ago by a trauma nurse that if you massage the area in a rotary motion that’s full of scar tissue it will eventually loosen up some. Not a quick fix by any stretch of the imagination, it does take some time, but with continual massage it will get better. It helps the mood too because you feel like you’re actually able to do something about it and it doesn’t hurt anything.

      I understand the logic but let me put that in perspective. Imagine a sandy beach and you don't want the sand, so every time you go to the beach you take a cup of sand away. It'd take a thousand lifetimes to remove all the sand. That is the same situation on the Montana prairies. We only focus on large rocks basketball size or larger as that is all we can handle.

It came 2 in 3" at a time and just in time so made 55 bu/ac but at $6.27 and now $6.80 for HRW. We have been no-till drilling into CRP ground where most who disked to get rid of the grass made 25 or less.

      @WelkerFarms  3 роки тому +2

      Back then we likely only had a few hundred acres. Only a few of those acres were broke for farming and most ran sheep on the tough land. A few fences here and there, 2 or 3 small wooden buildings. Possibly a small gas tractor, cultivator, and seeder as well as a horse or oxen. Overall I can't be exact as I am fourth generation but to my knowledge that is how they farmed back then. It was very hard and few made it. That's why 100 acre Farms turned into 10,000 acre farms.
