    I’m watching this on May 7 and see that sw SK is under heavy rainfall warning including the south farm area, expected amounts 2”-3”. Yay for Mike and family! Should help a lot if it really comes down (and doesn’t cause much flooding).

    Man I feel fortunate to have grown up on a farm in the Mid Willamette Valley of Oregon (despite the politics) 1hour from the coastline and 1hour from the ski mountains (snowmobiling for us) and true 4season weather with no extremes.. 40/50s and wet winter with maybe a dusting of snow once or twice a winter 75/85s summer and a 20 mph wind was considered a wind storm😅 I remember my father had a uncle that had settled in Calgary BC and had a large farm/ranch northeast of the city and we would visit in the early winter after all the farming was done for us, I remember seeing those large smokestacks on all those farms with flames rolling out the tops, apparently it was them burning off the methane gas produced by chickens.. quite the sight.. That is some barren unforgiving land in an extremely harsh environment, hats off to those whom managed to tame it enough to establish multi generational farm operations..no easy feat..

      It’s done to accurately place the seed at the correct depth. If you plant the same direction as the year before you run the risk of burring it or it being too shallow due to the drill furrows from the previous year.

    Your fields always look so horribly maintained, your products must be quantity over quality...

      ? You’re making no sense. Explain what you mean by horribly maintained,as I see nothing of the sorts.

      What kinds of fields are you looking at?

      I really hope you respond to the other comments. I’d really love to know what you’re on about. Your comment is total nonsense

    JD RX was 68 db’s and the Fendt had the loud hydraulic whine so it was 69 db’s.

      That's what it was!.. The thing is the Case does seem louder, but I need to get into Brian's Rx for a comparison. Brian just got moved back late last night, but now my drill is heading to the north farm! Also correction: the second, and 3rd dB tests I did while seeding both came out at 68.3... Not sure why the difference all of sudden, unless I did something wrong the first time.
