    Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. Our part-time employee, Brock, also helps with the filming. 1980 was our first year in Waldron where our main farm is now. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.
    I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.
    I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!
    I appreciate you subscribing to my channel and liking my videos. You can also find me on Facebook borderviewfarms and on Instagram @borderviewfarms

    Nathan and the fire department are very lucky to have you.
    Oats and used oil go a long ways in keeping the spreader looking like new. Nice purchase for BVF .

    Why don't you combine at an angle to the rows? Gonna wear the cutter bar more by following the rows.

    • @North-cb2vk
      @North-cb2vk 12 днів тому +1

      There is no choice for the headlands, but to follow the edge. If you look at the part of the video where Nathan talks with Brock, he is cutting at a slight angle to the rows.

    Looks like someone's gonna be busy spreading. We have a old lime belt we dump into to load fert in the field. Haven't done it for awhile. Ruins ur dump trailer belt etc. And I'd rather get tillage done timely and want the fert done before tillage. Not enough man power. Since weve stopped using anhydrous and went to uan we hardly ever have to lime

    Most UK farms that work with solid ferts use bagged product using 600 or 1000kg bags and a telescopic loader to handle these and other products on farm.

    What would be the difference in cost per acre, between your sprayer, plane, & drone? Not exact, just ball park,.

    • @M8Stealth
      @M8Stealth 12 днів тому

      On my farm, hiring an airplane is $12/ac and a sprayer is $8/ac. Would guess a drone is around $10/ac.
