aTrippyFarmer and the crew are back to bring you more farming adventures. In this episode, Andy tags along with Dean Drainage, a local drainage tile contractor, to spectate the installation of a massive farm drainage project on one of their fields. With the help of some heavy dirt moving equipment, the contractors are laying 1800 foot of 24 inch drain tile to help lessen the ponding on one particular field. This new farm drainage project will raise the total capacity to over 7,000,000 gallons of water each day. Andy is optimistic that this upgrade will greatly improve their yields on the target field. Tile drainage, especially projects of this scale, can be extremely beneficial to farms in Central Illinois to help alleviate water pressure from excessive rainfall, which has become increasingly common on Andy's farm. After dealing with a few hiccups from the start, the tile crew really picks up speed over the course of three days. By the time it is all done, the wheel trencher has moved a lot of dirt, and the employees have laid a lot of pipe. Thanks for watching!
#Farm #Illinois #Harvest #Fall #FarmingSimulator22
Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

I'm an engineer and a wannabe farmer and I loved this video. Very cool. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I work in an office most of the day, far removed from anything agricultural, but somehow i find this fascinating, just watched 50 minutes of enjoyable pipe laying !
I make these videos for people just like you. It's a whole different world out here in flyover country!
Perhaps it may be easier to derive a sense of accomplishment from something immediately tangable as opposed to (making an assumption of you here, forgive me) something like a report or spreadsheet.
@@stedmanwheless5372 I would agree with that. I work as a portfolio manager trading on the stock market. While our work gets done very well, it's not the same as seeing something physical getting done as opposed to just some numbers on a screen.
@@stedmanwheless5372 Absolutely! There is also something really wholesome and rewarding about working with soil/plants/nature. Most of the farmers i have met have been well-grounded, well-adjusted individuals. Then again, i have not met that many...
@@stedmanwheless5372 o
' îmi..om
i with you really enjoy seeing this ,and i hope the generations forward appreciate all the effort and pride that was put into this project!!
Well said! Thanks for watching!
I'm looking forward in seeing future water discharge updates as the season progresses. Best wishes this planting season...
I am excited, too. Of course, that would involved some big rains... 😒
Yes I too, have really enjoyed watching this operation take place. Thanks for taking time in filming this job.
Glad you enjoyed it
It's been a while since I've been on the farm but it looked to me like you have 12 to 16 inches of top soil, that is really good land and you are right to do whatever is needed to keep it producing.
We are very fortunate to have areas with highly productive soils. There is a lot of variability with our location on a glacial moraine... thanks for watching!
This was a great video. It's very interesting to see the tile actually being laid.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I hope you can get a good return for all the expense!
I live in East Yorkshire, UK, and the whole area was marshland until 1700 then a series of drainage plans were put in place and landowners dug ten foot deep and ten foot wide ditches to drain all the land.
As the land dried out the ditches were filled in and built or farmed over.
Large drainage projects have been one of the most important feats of modern agriculture. Often times, the drained land is some of the most productive. I hope this is the case here!
@@aTrippyFarmer I hope so too but I can't imagine the total cost for you.
My local ten foot drains were all dug by starving peasants paid with a bowl of porridge a day!
I planted a delphinium plant two days ago and top soil is super black stuff full of worms but only about 5 inches deep over solid sand. Worms won't tunnel into sand.
WOW What a great video, Amazing info and what a great job the boys done for you all. Stay safe family.
They did great work. Their shop is actually just a mile away from that farm, so it was convenient for everyone!
Wow, that was very interesting.
I have only seen 6" and 8" lines put in with a plow, but this operation for 24" is a whole different story !
Fascinating! First time seeing a soil snow blowerish thingy.
It does kind of look like a snow-blower with how it throws that dirt!
I helped my brothers and Dad tile a couple of hundred acres in the early 50's. I was ten or 12 at the time. My job was to set tiles from the flatbed truck onto the wooden chute as the truck drove down the ditch.
That sounds like a lot of hard work. I am sure you earned your pay... or maybe just food... that day! Things sure have changed since then. Thanks for sharing!
This was a top grade documentary ! Well done.
Thanks for watching!
Nice video keep it up!
*Greetings from Discovery KAI Channel*
Hey, thanks!
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!
Thanks for watching as always!!
Thanks for showing the big 24 inch laying.
My pleasure!
That black soil is something else and so deep.too, has a serious amount of fertility.I
Really glad you have good neighbours, we worked extensively with ours back in the day, their land was a week or two earlier than ours, so it fitted well for scheduling and sharing equipment.
That soil is extremely productive as long as it can be drained. I agree about the neighbors we are fortunate to be surrounded by so many great people!
@@aTrippyFarmer Can the soil organic matter be increased enough to act as one big sponge to let the water flow down into the aquifer? I see Greg Judy's farms seem to hold several inches of rain with out a lot of run off. Do you get more than 50" of rain? Is the water table close to the ground?
@@safffff1000 its all the rain and snow that build up all winter, you have to get rid of it, with all that water you cant plow or run equipment over the land it will get stuck and compact teh soil , and the seed wont sprout that just die in the. without drainage its a swamp for months , then you miss your planting season . greg judys land its NOT flat and not the same soil. these farmers know what they are doing there life depends on it.
Really enjoyed this video. As always they get a thumbs up before even watching. Keep up the good work and thanks.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching.
As a kid i always enjoyed seeing dirt and rock being moved in some fashion by a yellow earth mover. From a retired marine engineer in nz.☺
It sure is neat! Thanks for watching.
Watched this some months ago but found it so interesting that I came back again today. Found your place on google earth and looking at the past 30+ years I can see why you really needed to do this. Lots of water/wet areas in some years. I grew up in western Nebraska and worked on farms there in the summers but it was so dry there and not as flat as you are so tile wasn't something people needed to do. We were lucky to get 15 inches of precipitation a year and 7 or 8 was all we got some years. Thanks for taking the time to put this up. Best wishes for the new year.
Thanks for the nice comment, Marv. I am glad that you enjoyed the video. It is really neat to see how different the farming conditions are across the country, even if we grow some of the same crops. Best wishes!
@@aTrippyFarmer One of my hobbies is genealogy. Appears your family homesteaded there in the mid 1800s. Great that the farm is still in the family. Both my grandparents were farmers in Western Nebraska, but they lost out in the dust bowl days of the 1930s. One of my cousins still farms the place our great great grandparents homesteaded in Eastern Nebraska but none of his children are interested in farming, so the farm won't likely remain in the family very long after he passes. It appears love of farming is an inherited trait. When we get back to Nebraska, we still visit the farm family I worked for 60 years ago. Sadly, he passed recently. And none of his kids are interested in farming so that tradition will end with him.
@@marv1405 it is fun to think about the history of the farm, but it only takes one series of bad luck or distinerest from the next generation to end the lineage of a farm. That seems to just be the nature of life. There are many farms that grow stronger by the day, and others that continuously decay away. It is very hard for outsiders to grasp how farming is much more than an occupation-it is a way of life. You are correct about our history. We actually have deep roots. If you go to the Illinois sesquicentennial farm lookup, you can see that the dole family is one of 9 that have deep roots. We actually had 2 seperate sides of the family from the same generation, but we sold that farm for a development that never came to fruition.
My Grandfather had 2 Buckeye ditchers and ran Grade targets installing Clay Tile 😁 In 1976 we ran tile plows with Spectra physics lasers, 1.5 Million feet on average and now everyone is up to GPS grade controls. You had to live it to appreciate how far drainage has advanced.
I bet that was a sight to see. Technology sure has made things easier, but those old-timers earned their pay. Thanks for sharing!
Iv been doing drainage in north central Indiana for 40 yrs and for a farmer, you nailed everything you said on the head !!! Not to many farmers take the time to understand how tile works or how much time and labor it takes. And with the old tile , you said it correctly for if it's worth hooking back up or not. Keep up the great work and keep learning and passing on knowledge. 👍
Appreciate that. Drainage is becoming an important part of every farm. It’s one of the best places to spend money!
@@aTrippyFarmer have you done a follow up video showing this tile in action?
@@ChrisPBacon-yz6nk a few videos after this there was a really big rain that I showed, but it wasn’t the focus of the video. If we get a huge rain this year, I’ll probably make a video focusing on the performance of the new system!
@@aTrippyFarmer I found it. I had to watch 4 videos though which is great for the algorithm. 😂😂
Great work. My wife asked why I was watching people dig in the dirt. 😂😂😂
She just doesn’t understand a boy, a mud puddle and some Tonka toys.
Great informative vid Andy. Amazing how different things are done in different areas of the country. I always love seeing things done different than what happens in our area.
Glad you enjoyed it! You all probably do it quite different out to the east.
I work for a tile crew. I found your video very interesting. Always a good opportunity to see how others do things.
Thanks for sharing. Tiling is hard work, and I appreciate what you do!
Hello, This video was nicely presented, and informative for people removed from the soil of the Earth. Our family has been on this farm since 1907, while have only been here since 1948. I can remember Grampa hiring Johnny and Pauly, to hand dig some 4” clay tile lines. I have recently put in 3000’ of 4” perf. over a couple years. As you explained here, the weather runs your business.
Our son is a pipe layer in Akron, Oh., and has helped me to learn some of the skills to keep the land healthier. Your comment about losing faith in people. Sadly, this is a byproduct of fewer two parent families, and moving around the country. Thanks again for the great program.
Nice of them to do their maintenance while they're on your time....very generous indeed.
They don't charge by the hour 😂
Tile work is charged by the foot. Doesn’t matter if it takes them a day or two weeks.
I was fascinated with this job!
Glad you enjoyed!
Very educational and enjoyable. Good luck in the future
Thanks for watching!
Interesting video, good video to educate city dwellers who think you just sow seeds, water, and harvest.
Thank you for taking the time.
Thanks for watching!
That wheel trencher looks like a logging skidder converted. The cab reminds me of a Tigercat. Very cool video.
I am sure there are some similarities! Thanks for watching!
The road, the trencher is like, ‘yeah, no problem, I’m through’. Cool machine. 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Like a hot knife through butter...
WOW!!!AMAZING PIPE LAYING
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this job. It will pay dividends you many years to come.
Thanks for watching!
Great video very enjoyable and educational thanks for sharing it with us,
Greetings from Minnesota ....
Thanks for watching!
I graduated in 1962, first job as a 98 pound weakling working for my uncle as the boy who brought the cement tile to the ditch where the guy in the shoe hooked it and dropped it into the trench. Mud, sand, caved walls, rocks, stuck machines, then long commutes to and from jobs, lunch pails, old cars, pickups, job ended with the frost, off to the navy after Thanksgiving. Barely made the minimum weight in spite of all the work. I had fun and wore out my hands, cement is like sand paper, thousands of tiles carried to the ditch. Seeing the modern equipment in action is always interesting to me. My cousins still do ditch tiling in South Dakota, Iowa and Minnesota.
Wow that sounds like a lot of work. There are so many jobs in the modern day that have been made substantially easier by machines and technology. Thanks for sharing!
keep em coming! fascinating to a city guy like me.
You got it!
Nice video,tiling always pays, $50,000.00 sounds and is alot of money, but your hoping to gain maybe 900 bushel of beans on that farm,at 80 bushel of beans per acer you would have to buy about 11 acers of land to gain that same 900 bushel of beans, where improving this land you don't pay for the land, seed ,fertilizer,weed control ,machinery cost ,or taxes on another 11 acers ,you already pay it on this land every year ,when you put that into prospective the 50K is a good investment
Yes cornGot Above seven dollars a few weeks ago.
Yep that's a great way to look at it. 50,000 probably wouldn't even get you 3 acres in our area right now. This tile should gain us much more!
Enjoyed the tile work and the black soil at depth!! Never tiled on my western Canadian farm, it was cheaper just to buy more land! That is changing too!
This tile job would only have bought us a shade over 3 acres in our area. Land prices look good on your balance sheet, but it sure hurts to buy more nowadays!
The tiles on our farm near Washburn, Il were all clay tiles.
When the area would flood, after it dried out we would go out and hand dig, replacing broken and crushed tiles. This was in the late 40’s.
I appreciate the comment. I cannot tell if those are good memories or bad ones, but I'm happy to hear them!
Andy. I watch you all the time on my main 50 inch TV at home. I rarely comment but watch every video...
I appreciate that! I hope that you can watch in 4K on that big TV, so long as your internet can handle it. 4K looks GOOOOOD on TVs!
You have a good relationship with your neighbors
It doesn't hurt to be friendly to everyone... never know when you're going to need a favor!
FACINATING ! THANKS FOR SHARING!
Thanks for watching!
That young man in bibs is a stud!
I was thinking the same thing!
A 24" boot on that hydramaxx, sweet baby Jesus. My contractor in southeast Nebraska is the only other guy I've seen with the same machine. I've only needed 6-12" in terrace work. Even though you have a substantial cost to run across the neighbors, anyone seeing your farm in that overhead image can see it will be a good investment
It is an impressive machine. They don't run a lot of 24" tile, but they do need to from time-to-time. I'd say about every full-time farm drainage outfit in this area has a big wheel trencher for running mains!
Thanks for the video, I found it very interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mate I'm a skipper by trade drive charter boats and I find this so fascinating great video keep them up. From sunny Nelson New Zealand 🇳🇿
I appreciate the comment! Best wishes!
Out standing and informative as always 👍 can always tell when area farmer's have a good year...lots of tile work being done👌 improve the farm and don't pay as much to Uncle Sam😁
If you think the tile work is a good sign, you should see the lots at the John Deere dealerships...nothing left for sale! I am a big believer in drainage, so I'd like to start budgeting in 100 acres of patterns a year to help improve our yields.
@@aTrippyFarmer That shiny new Combine doesn't make you money, tile does even in dry year. Put your drone to work during the season on the fields, you will see the tile lines as crops grow if you have no information or tile maps to help. We used to fly fields with an airplane on unknown ground about 12 noon on a Sunny day and take pictures.
Marty had to write a big check for this one!💰💰
It was an expensive project, but it should pay quickly!
Awesome to see thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hay dude, this is a great video man, I always wanted to know and see how it done, so thanks for sharing,
No problem 👍
I'm from the UK, and seeing miles and miles of completely flat land like that, with nothing on the horizon messes with my head! It just doesn't look real to me.
Nothing where I live is flat, everything has some slope, unless someone went to the trouble and expense to flatten their lot.
Almost completely different worlds! It can be flat and wide open for mile after mile around here. Thanks for watching!
Lesseee, UK is about a quarter million square km.
Just one of the major agricultural states in the USA, Kansas, is 211k sq km. Nebraska is 198k. Iowa 145k, Ohio 105k. CA's central valley is nearly 200k. Just flying over the USA shows vast expanses of every type of terrain.
Super interesting, thanks for sharing 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
I found it very interesting as well man.
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Very enjoyable video! AMAZING what that machine can do. Would enjoy follow up when the tile starts flowing water and what the field looks like...Thanks
Thanks for the comment. I'll follow up later in the season. It's almost guaranteed that we will get a flooding rainfall at some point.
Very interesting to me. I' waiting to get 80 acres tiled in Sangamon County. Hopefully, before the crops are planted this spring. If not, early this fall.
There’s always someone waiting on the tile guy to show up. That Sangamon County ground is probably world-class once you get it drained. Good luck!
That beast is amazing
It can move a lot of soil...
Thanks for your videos this was very interesting 👍 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good looking dirt in places. It is an interesting process. Looks like a good idea. I say get out of the rain.
Thanks!
Very nice, from a city-slicker!
Thanks for watching!
I agree, I also find it fascinating how things work....loved the video...Also if you could, show update on how much water comes out of this please 😁
Will do!
Did that work 50 yes a go back then it was Clay title brought back some great memory's
Very enjoyable .
Glad you think so!
Thankst for the video. If you ever get to Geneva, NY there is a field tile museum that might be interested in the progress seen here. Here in Ohio some years ago the boom on a trencher hit a power line that melted tires.
Thanks for the comment!
Thank you. Interesting project. Good luck with the crops this year. My brother in law farms rice in Australia and always says farming is high stakes gambling as you have to make long term decisions with short term facts.
That’s very true. It’s not quite as risky as it was years ago, but there is still so many things that can go wrong!
One of the best farming videos I have watched. Very informative look forward to seeing the effect it has - thanks
Wow, thanks!
Good way to lay drainage pipe 🤗
It was an awesome project to watch. Thanks for the comment!
Really cool !!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Well, your comment at 39:50 oohhh do NOT underestimate the complete tosh I am prepared to watch!! 🙂 anything from art restoration, tool restoration to sucking out blocked house drains....I (and many others) will watch it..... 550K views cant be wrong.
All hail the algorithm.
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome thanks 👍 very interesting as I work on a tile crew in central Wisconsin 😊😂
You’d know this stuff better than me!
We use to dig foundation footings this way, fast and clean.
👍
You are lucky to be removing water. In the Texas Panhandle area there are thousands of miles of tile. Millions of acres are irrigated. A good sprinkler system needs 4,000,000 gallons/day and 500 hp for just one sprinkler that is half mile long.
Different world!
amazing people still lay lines without a tracer wire!
You'd think they'd know better!
Fascinating
👍🏻
Too bad we can’t pipeline that water out west. In 2019 we received 16 inches of water over 6 days. The original farm took it no problem. 22 years of no till and cover crops, not one inch of tile. Not even a puddle. The newer ground, we were planting in June, and it’s tiled.
I hope I never have to dig like that. We have 22 windmills and they put in a lot of subterranean infrastructure.
The level of detail you give is amazing. VERY well done. I’m probably looking at different things than most. Love seeing those stalks and stubble.
Chalk up another one for good neighbors.
One of the biggest hurdles around here with the renewable energy projects is the excavation and destruction of previous drainage infrastructure... and the roads. I have mixed feelings about both wind and solar, but they sure do offer a lot of money for it.
I'd happily send you some of our water. We got 3.5" last week. It hasn't stopped since September!
I unironically just came from watching a video about how the Underdeveloped parts of the world that have been historically too dry (and getting worse with the weather patterns) to support agriculture and then this came up as my first reccommended video for getting rid of it haha
A tale of two worlds. The fertile American prairie is home to soil that tends to remain swampy, especially with its naturally wet climate. We grow great crops, but the regular rains can cause ponding issues.
When you bring in the wonder wheel you wonder what it will hit. For you a fake a artesian well. On the railroad a bigger version is used and it eats switch machines and cables for breakfast.
Good idea the put in a 6' pipe by me for storm drainage and it ovefilled and flodded the service road, next to the highway which cut off the drainage. They replaced that with a 9' by 9' storm drain which they are in phase two to connect the rest of the hill. Nice job and nice soil. Tichincally the trencher broke the hard pan and rototated the soil. So maybee better yields for your neighbors and you.
Those trenchers can cause a lot of damage if things aren't scouted properly... I have heard of a tile plow causing a yield-bump from the deep rip, but I have not heard the same of a trencher. Thanks for the comment!
Thank Ole Joe for the increases!
You got it!
Just found your channel, subscribed and sent a message, good luck on your growth
Thanks for the sub. I am glad to have you!
Really interesting
adding a simple wire on the pipe allows for a locator to be used. I would suspect the gas lines have such a feature.
we use a simple sewer snake in a water line when under parking lots to add the metal antenna . a few hours of work saves a LOT of problems !
I agree. Ultimately, it wasn’t a big issue-just caused some lost time and water!
Very interesting!!!!
Glad you think so!
Just in case no one has told ya yet,….
Thank you! Thank you for the foods you work so hard to produce for me to eat! Again,
Thank you farmer. W/o ya we would all starve.
I appreciate the kind words. There is a lot to be gained financially by farming, so don’t think that farmers aren’t doing it solely because they are great people!
@@aTrippyFarmer 🤣👍🏻
you people with your things!
Things!
amazing! coming from coastal Massachusetts, I can't believe the amount of topsoil you have
Thanks for watching! Central Illinois is home to some of the best farmland in the world. We are very lucky to farm here.
What a drag I’ve had the same deal experience except it was electric omg
Electric lines are probably easier to locate underground, but it would still stink to hit one. There are much worse things to hit than a water line!
Freaking awesome machine, I find it cool that the water will be crystal clear coming out of those pipe 💪🇺🇸 thanks for sharing
Well the crystal clear water at the start was from an actual water line that they hit. That water is drinking quality. The field drainage will probably be good quality once the dirt is settled in place from the entire project!
@@aTrippyFarmer oh ok cool how it filter's it so well
Send that water to Oklahoma we need it. Good video
I wish that I could!
I owned a drainage company.. LLC Sundance excavation and drainage... Yes always when you build consider drainage.. and a good foundation.. that is the key..
You're only as successful as your weakest link, and drainage was a major flaw on this farm!
"financial journey" is a very professional way of saying "im about to haemorrhage money start to finish". also im not going mad am i? that bucket was on the wrong way round and in the next clip was right. lol
You aren't crazy... editing can make things look weird! It is a hemorrhage upfront, but it will be profitable within the first 5 years, if I had to guess...
that 24 inch stuff is quality pipe last a long time some of our large double walled pipe is 22 years old and still good and round unlike the 4 and 6 inch pipe that collapses over time
I hope so! These pipes are built extremely sturdy. Thanks for sharing!
A 12 month breakeven is not impossible with future contract prices. Best of luck.
It seems like it would be easy for the trencher to have a hydraulic tilt feature to load the pipes. Then the skid steer could bring them over and they wouldn't have to lifted in by hand from there.
Yeah there is probably something that you could rig up. Regardless, you still need someone in the boot watching the connections as they go. Thanks for the comment!
I loved it
Glad you enjoyed!
When ya hit a water line while tiling a field, ah life.
Kinda ironic!
Hi Andy here’s one for you up here in southwest Michigan I know of a farmer that tiled his farm with a round point shovel or probably several I don’t know the amount of feet of tile but can you imagine.
A lot of this old tile was laid that way... what back-breaking work!
0
What would be cool, likely very pointless, but, mount some flash lights to an RC car, and mount a GOPRO camera also to the RC car, and run the full length of the tile... The maybe once a year, run the same process, and then be able to compare how much soil settles in the tile each year... ? let alone, you would be the only one on UA-cam to have that video .... either way, this was a neat video on its own, I had no clue of this machine.. it was pretty neat. Me and my son are currently playing with our LEGO's, as he wants to try and build one of those machine... Thank you for the inspiration.. I love my father & son time.
That is actually a neat idea. I am glad to provide some entertainment and inspiration for you and your son. Legos are an ageless gift. Take care!
This was so cool to see I live and farm in California's south-central valley and this is so different than anything we do out here.
Yes it’s probably much different than what you see everyday! I bet you have more issues with droughts than floods 🤕
That's a big tile.
It is, and it will move a lot of water. They make bigger, though!
@@aTrippyFarmer I know they make it bigger. Just don't see that size put in much.
