    Laura this was an OUTSTANDING video! Well done! I absolutely marvel at how exceptionally well run your farm is. The hog pens are a perfect example. Kudos to your dad.
    I can't say enough how much I respect and admire him. Note that you still look cute even half asleep at 2AM and still managed a big smile!
    It was a wise choice NOT to show the pigs getting loaded, even though they weren't being harmed in any way.

    Great video! Love the relationship between you and your dad. I come from a family of farmers--dairy on my late grandmother's side, and poultry on my late grandfather's side--they said that it was a mixed marriage! All the land has been sold off and my father never took over as planned. Guess it saved me from years farm labor (I did work on cucumber farm though).

TDF and Sawyer have been posting about pressure washing after 🐖 pigs have left a barn before restocking. His operation has been affected by slow down in hospitality sector and processors being affected. But hopefully all will bounce back.😀

    Hey Laura! My ancestors are from York and Sweard County. Final resting places are in the Greshem, York, Bradshaw, Utica, Grand Island areas. They came to Nebraska before Ellis Island was thought of. Later my Family continued west to the front range of Colorado and eventually I landed in Northwest Arkansas. Agrarian from the mother land and still today. I have an encyclopedia my Family and others from the area made in the mid 90's that documents York and Seward County agriculture. It's about 3 inches thick and goes back to the first settlers. Perhaps that is part of the reason I'm attracted to your content...that and you do a stellar job of sharing your life. Congrats Young Miss, I smell silage 😉

    Farming is not a 9-5 occupation. I give a lot of credit to them. It is good that farming is still a viable option as an occupation. I know that they are typically a much bigger operation today then it was 40-60 years ago. I follow a lot of small homesteads and I think they are seeing the value of growing there on food and raising their own meat. Thank you for all you and your family does. Just blown away with how flat the land is. We do have flatlands near the Sandhills and further south in North Carolina.

    Do you have those swing arms on the end of your pivots and how do you get the field irrigated where it is square? Maybe you can show them to us. Are they controlled by a sensor in the ground which controls nozzles so you don't overspray onto the not square part?
