I'M BACK!!! Part 2 Winter Wheat Update | Vlog 85
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- With the winter canola update covered off, we head to check out some winter wheat with a couple interesting strips that are showing up. We also avoid losing the drone but it was a close call.
I don’t know whether you call it science or biology or what but you do the best job of explaining the Why of farming more so than anyone else I see on UA-cam.
You thank us for watching but i wanted to say THANK YOU for taking time out of your busy day and away from your family to share your farm with us ! At the end of the day, you must do what is best for you not us. Take time for your self and your loved ones. Tell that to Sandi too, she should not feel the pressure to pump out videos at the expense of her sanity.
Cheers Shepard Creek Farms.
Great view of the chemical treatment - gets our interest to follow this through to your reports after harvest
Wow ! The knowledge you have ! The way you explain all this is remarkable ! Stay safe ! Bob
We’re Happy you’re producing Videos again since you’re a Well Liked 👍 Farmer! Thanks Mark!👍
Great video Mark nice looking wht crop
Love the pur knowledge, great teacher, keep it up, and thk’s
Thank you for sharing your insight to different products, Very interesting and looking forward to some harvest videos on the Wheat and Canola.
You have tickled my knowledge “taste buds” with the talk about corn and its silk! I would love to hear more about it. I find all of your information absolutely fascinating! Thank you for taking the time to share with us!
The silk is attached to the ears and transports the pollen
Awesome info !
Thank you Mark, I always enjoy how you explain your crops to us, Something I know nothing about. It really holds my interest every time, not to mention the awesome drone footage!👍🧡
It fascinates me that you are able to present a vlog explaining in detail of what happens to your crop(s) when using insecticides and/ or fungicides along with a visual from a drone. I'm certain that all of science comes natural to you.Thank you for being a farmer.Stay blessed!! Sending rain from MI
Crops really do look good. My 82 year old dad was over your way and said crops look great over that way.lots of stress and hard work for you.
There’s nothing quite like listening to a wheat field in the wind hearing that sound there’s nothing else like it
When it comes to crop farming, you are the Boss 👍🏻 Technically brilliant videos, full of interesting info, and your trying new crops and chemicals. Looking forward to the next one. Well done sir!
That’s truly amazing to see the color difference. Hoping for a great yield. All this work deserves reward. Great job Mark. Keep it up.
Very informative video, very interesting.
As a ex farmer myself I know farming is a very busy business to be in, not much free time, but can be rewarding as well as heart breaking at times.
Don't feel guilty about lack of videos life and family come before UA-cam.
Nice to watch a channel that goes beyond the big flash equipment and gets down to the grass roots of the job.
Keep up the good work from the UK, hope you have a successful Wheat harvest.
Glad you're back. Love your very knowledgeable vlogs. Please keep them up when you can. You are a very intelligent teacher who can communicate with novices as well as experienced farmers. Thanks.
I live vicariously through your videos. Love the info detail. Never boring. Don't tell Sandi, but I'm beginning to enjoy your videos more. LOL. Guy stuff interests me. i.e. mechanical stuff, field assessment, drones, equipment, etc. And as others have mentioned, you explain you're subject matter very well. Easy to listen to and understand. That Canadian accent... a boot! 😃
You are being nicer than I am because mother nature has been a real bitch this year here in upstate New York we started out with a wet spring then we only had 1.1” of rain in June thank God now when the corn is starting to tassel we’ve had about 2.5” of rain in the past week because it’s been hotter than normal
Very enjoyable video...looking forward to what comes next and praying Mother Nature is kind !
Thanks Mark for sharing your knowledge and perspectives... broadens my mind 👏😀
Thanks for the field tour, the drone is a great tool for the farmer to have a bird's eye view of the crops, water issues, etc. on the fields. Glad you got your drone back, i watch a farming channel called Talasbuan from Sweden and they had their drone attacked by a hawk and it took it down!
Drone footage + explanation, very nice!
Thanks for this video. For a guy not been growing up on a farm I find the educational part very interesting. Not many youtubers does this unfortunately.
Aloha Mark
Glad that drone is such a big help for ya!
Really like your videos! Learn more about farming every time.
Mark, I've mentioned it before, but this video illustrates again your gift of explaining things in a way that is very informational and educational, a great video on aspects of wheat culture, You do a great service for production agriculture with your videos.
Very informative. I didn't know much about ok but wheat. Awesome. 🌾🌾👍
Great video I enjoy learning
The trend of unusual high temps and the past fall/winter being mild is happing everywhere in North America! Louisiana in southern US is experiencing the same issues as you guys in Canada. Thank you for being such an amazing teacher!
Can't wait for your "corn" video! One thing that makes me interested is that back in the 80's I can remember high school/college kids talking about working on a farm "detasseling." I think I've got that right....but hoping your video will address that (granted...that was like 40 years ago...LOL). So glad you're back...but family and farming come first...so we are all happy to wait! :D
Cathy Brown my son detassled corn when he was 14 in Indiana not far from southern eastern side of Indianapolis. Super hard and hot work. Best thing he ever did to learn a good work ethic. He talked about there being male and female corn and how to tell the difference. They’d take off the tassel of one if them can’t remember. Can’t remember why they did this. Maybe something to do with producing better seeds? That as 18 years ago.
Nice Update so Thanks for doing a two (2) Part Series on what’s going on in your Fields. 👍👍👍
Always love your videos. I learn so much.
So overall Mark what you're saying is the Calm before the storm right the storm of combine .👍🚜🚜🚜🚜
Very interesting vlog great explanation about the wheat . Can definatley see the different fungicide used on the wheat . I can understand the frustration with no rain especially when its your livelihood . I have been around dairy farms all my life here in Australia and no rain does your head in . Really did miss the vlogs while you had your hiatus . Good to see you back Mark and hope you get more rain as its needed . I am looking forward to when you harvest .
thank you for your video! as a city girl I am learning so much from your channel and living out my love for farming through your day to day journey. The drone is an amazing tool for agriculture today, your footage is amazing! Such a special treat!!! Yay
Your use of the drone to assess and scout your crops is quite interesting. It helps explain your processes so well. Those army worms are quite efficient eating machines. They came through our knee high lush coastal hay field and mowed it back to 4 inch stubble in 10 days. Looked like we scalp mowed it. Ran the cows into that meadow when the worms were spotted to let them graze as much as they could to get some benifit of that cutting. Mother nature gives us a lot of adaptability tests for sure.
Your knowledge base that you use for making decision is impressive. On the first field you talked about a unsprayed strip and your reason for that makes sense. But why have such a large amount of untreated wheat, wouldn't a smaller section give you the some data?
Oh Mark, another fantastic video! The knowledge and science that you share with us is remarkable. I may be old, but love to continue to learn. With today’s technology (yes, it is a love hate relationship) you get a birds eye view of your crops and I get to learn...win win situation. THANK you for sharing your time and knowledge with us....you are amazing.
Army worm finally got to Australia this year. It came in from New Guineair has made it down to almost Brisbane Qld.
I truly enjoy your videos. You teach well. Obviously you know grain farming. Thank you for sharing each video. Blessings
I very much enjoyed it. Thanks
Listening to you reminds me of my time in class at Centralia College (78-80). One of my instructors I worked with in Guelph until he retired back to his farm in the Clinton area.
Love watching your videos very interesting
You mentioned the modes of action of the fungicides, when I was involved with studying they had egosterol inhibitors, morpholines and they had triazole fungicides, but resistance was becoming a problem, I guess the active ingredients of these new fungicides will be different and hopefully more effective. The objective was always to get more plant resistance and reduce fungicide use, but with large monocultures this is always difficult as mother nature 💔 finds away to put best layed plans a wry. 3 ton acre, 10 tonne /hectare was always a good crop, not sure about 90-100 bushels /acre.
Screen in screen, hey Mr. Fancy !
Thanks Mark always glad to see your videos. Love the shirt too.
Thank you, very interesting to see the differences in the fields. intrigued about the formation of corn, look forward to that one : )
Great videos! Thanks!
Glad you're back. See you have another scorcher of a weekend coming up. I suspect it is harvesting time for you. Hope it goes well.
Hi Mark!
It look good, but we have to wait to we have it in our barns. Here in south of Sweden it looks to be normal harwest. Thank you for I may come in to your family's farming life. 👍
Very good and informative video Mark. Good to have you back for sure!
Good video Mark Daniel from central Mississippi
Another great video, Mark! 👌🏻
I'm glad you're back!
Yessssssssss! Stay back! Love your videos! So educational. Thank you!
Thanks for all that info Mark. I'm not a farmer, but always interesting to know how things are done.
So very interesting. I went to Kansas State University with many family farmers and remember school fields. That drone such a great tool for viewing things. Like you I can hate technology but still love it.
Love learning about farm life. I'm a Chicago Grandma & love seeing all this
Hi mark.great to see you back.
You make a great teacher. Love your explanation on the maturing of crops.
Ok, If you try growing the canola again next year are you going to bring a local beekeeper in before they flower to see if you get a better yield. Is there another crop going in right after you harvest it Will you till in the big load of sheep waste sitting in front of the barn into the dry spots to improve the soil before you put in the next crop How much research have you done on Reducing Combine Losses
Good morning Mark, can you tell us the difference between wheat types and how the industry's use them please? Like some wheat is used for bread, some for pasta etc etc. Thanks
Feathered Life : Great idea!
I don't think using your own wheat seed is cheap. I think it is smart. Looking forward to a wheat harvest Vlog. I hope the yield monitor gets friendly with 100 bu/acre!
Mark, thanks for your insight. Very informative and I've enjoyed your manner of communicating for a long time. Hope the wheat yields well for you, it looks pretty good as compared to what I've seen here in Central Ohio.
Hi Mark, very interesting video. Especialy for me as farmer too. I`m also looking forward to harvest my Triticale and Lupins. Greets from bavaria. Thomas
Background noise Compared to Sandys birds in the barn your videos are great.We don't mind natural noise
it was hard to see but you could definatly tell where one stopped and the next began...vary interesting to see where our food comes from on the plant side(use to raise beef cattle so I know the meat side)
I’m going to say it’ll be 97 bushels, the crop actually looks pretty good...
The science behind our food/ feed crops is fascinating, and you explain it very well. Looking forward to the next video. Glad you are back.
Always very interesting to see field trials :D hopefully there is some good information in them
Good update again mark,do you have any deer around on crops there.cant wait for canola video mate,remember patience the first hour mate cheers for videos great content.
Glad too see more videos up! Roll on harvest!
I'm interested in what the fungicide products you are using 🤓👍
Thanks for the video mark i like how 2 kinds of spraying app dose to a field ...wheats looks great i say 98/105 bu per acre
Robert. Landwehr : Let’s hope and pray that you are correct😃
Had to chop our wheat off since some rye seed was mixed in it
Do a happy dance -!!!!
nice job farming we farm west of saskatoon. What variety canola is that.
I will be interested in your corn, Kawartha has a lot of 'Pineapple' corn = we need rain Thanks
What drone do you use? Do you have a link for it by chance. Thanks. Great video about fungicide for wheat.
Wheat looks flat/laying over between last headland pass and back and forth passes. Is that due to higher population planted there? Will that cause yield drag?
I’m looking to get a drone for my UA-cam channel on our farm what do you recommend
Do you have the Option of Irrigating your fields or is there NO Water Reservoirs on your Property ?
From the turkey
Can one chop straw into strawledge and joker it in to soil to hold moisture
Thanks for the knowledge sharing!
Did you have army worms on your 2020 bingo card?
on google earth of your area u see all the lots have small section of trees at the back where u could just have more field right up to the neighbor lot. is this a choice all the farmers make to have another source of income or is it a requirement by the government ? cause it were not for the small tree lots there be not a tree in that section of canada it looks like one giant section of farm after farm after farm im used to living in maine where u driver for hours thru trees before u see another house.
When do you harvest soybeans?
You do a great job on the farm. Have you ever thought of growing healthy organic food. In my opinion corn, soybeans and canola are very unhealthy. There the cause of obesity which leads to heart disease and cancer.
Hey Mark what make of drone is it? looking into getting one
Looks to me like a DJI drone that he has. DJI mavic air
Do you use lanate for army worms
Do you have any problem with vomitoxins
I am not against spraying insecticide. Don't feel bad about doing it. I would not want to live in Canada if you have to get permission to save seed from plants you've grown. Less government is needed!
Why is it the lodging tends to be at the ends where sprayer turns? Is it because of extra N when the inside boom is turning slower?
Always enjoy your videos Mark!
