    I know your not obligated to share your life with us I don't think you do it for the glory. But I do thank you from a ex farmer on the last part of his life journey watch / sharing your life on your early part of your life's journey.
    It's like reliving a film. Young man learning from his dad. Young man getting married and starting his family. Young father showing his son the same things your father showed you.

    So I was watching this video and my almost 10-yr-old, Lydia, heard the girls chattering away in the combine and came over and watched and wanted to see more. So, yesterday we binge-watched all of the 2017 season videos, including the live stream with the women-folk in the combine. She really liked that one! Praying for things to get easier for you all through these last acres. (I put some suggestions in the Discussion tab.) Thanks again for taking the extra time to bring us along through the ups and downs.

    Great video. I love that you have your kids involved in your videos. We were finally able to get the last 5 acres of soybeans in the low spots yesterday so it is nice to be done with 2017 harvest. Looking forward to your next video.

    Some parts of Minnesota have rocks like Albany!!!!!We sold the farm by Sauk Centre and my uncle semi retired and bought a 160 acre was really close to Holdingford (think that's how it's spelled). The farm by Sauk was nice. Hardly any rocks. We had a JD disk for 20 years and never replaced a blade until we got to Albany. The first 20 acre field broke 5 blades and bent another 8. I hated working that ground.

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  6 років тому +2

      oldfarmer my Dad swears he will never tske a disk on our ground again, I think he still has nightmares about it

    Nothing like the chew and spit moisture test. For us that's just a way to make the soybean moisture whatever we want it to be. LOL

    • @lomparti
      @lomparti 6 років тому +2

      By the sound of that spit I reckon the moisture of those beans was 16.6% not 16%. Thats way off! lol

  • @stevenv5390
    @stevenv5390 6 років тому +1

    Same problems we had in northern pa we only got 160 bushels corn a acre this year.

    • @MillennialFarmer

      Mike Honcho our corn is looking about average (175-180) right now. Wish it was better but I can't complain!

  • @syncrosimon
    @syncrosimon 5 років тому

  • @caleb8239
    @caleb8239 6 років тому

    Have you ever tried narrower rows on your non-irrigated beans? Pros and cons to narrow rows, but I think the best advantage from narrow rows is better weed control from earlier canopy. With resistant weeds, seems to be a bigger issue every year.

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  6 років тому +2

      Caleb Not for many years. We didn't see an advantage to it at the time. We have had good luck with 30" rows not getting white mold like the narrow ones, and this way we only need 1 planter.

    • @caleb8239
      @caleb8239 6 років тому

      MN Millennial Farmer Good information!
      Another quick question: have you ever planted Liberty Link beans? I have a worsening problem with resistant pigweeds and was thinking about trying Liberty beans, but haven't so far. Wondered if anyone else had experience they could share.

  • @dragonfly9786

    what do you (or farmers in gen.) do with the left-over (rejected) material of the soy-bean plant, after the beans are harvested. ?

    save a buck by reducing vehicles.
    Thanks for your time. 🙂

    @bigjim5723 6 років тому

    i remember having my boys in the dozers(d-9G) back when they was that age. I have to ask ya this question-as u are selling ur corn u harvest to the ethanol plant. if that plant was not there-would ur farm, equipment be that large? could u still be able to sell ur product elsewhere to support the size of equipment u have. love ur vids. thanks

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  6 років тому

      BigJim57 yes, we have a lot of local elevators and feed mills. We sell a lot to ethanol plants because as an end user, they're able to buy at a higher price. Without them, we would maybe have cheaper local corn prices, but I believe cheaper cash rent prices for land would reflect that, ultimately making our cash flows a wash.

    • @MillennialFarmer

      Will Zealand our grains dryer and semis can't keep up to 2 combines with the amount of bushels being handled with corn. We run 2 on beans so we can get going on corn sooner!

    • @MillennialFarmer
      @MillennialFarmer  6 років тому +5

      Kentucky farmer 112 the second machine does about 1,000 acres of soybeans each year. We believe it's worth it because it allows us to get going on corn several days quicker which is huge in our climate. We got it really reasonably priced ( it's a 1999) and it shouldn't lose much value because it has low hours and we maintain it well.
