I watched this video and kept thinking. Back during the drought we all prayed for you guys to get the rain. I think we all prayed a little too hard. 😅. Keep up the great work
I was thinking the same thing. Now I pray for Idaho with a.l their water debacle they told farmers to stop pumping from Aquafer...but the new Cobalt mine by Biden and how many other politician investors can pump 24/7
Mike. Mitchell. and family farms 10,000 acres ,south Saskatchewan, dry land farming , low yields , 5 bushel / acre yields Now he is getting rained out , but he has a crop in the ground. And praying if he gets another rain in a couple weeks. They should be able to get a 40 bushel crop
In the future, instead of praying for more rain or dryer temps….I’m just going to pray for you to get the perfect weather you will need at that moment in time. Covering all my bases. Good luck with your new lake front property. ❤
Most people don't get how the weather effects the farmer and the crops... It sucks for all of us farmers... Prayers and thoughts to everyone that is dealing with this.....
Crop shortages equals food shortages for livestock and humans. And the farmers know how to survive. Don’t know that I can say that for the majority of the mouths they feed.
This reminds me when my daughter bought me a ticket to come see her in Aberdeen SD. 19 years ago. The pilot went low so we could see the destruction of the rains, it looked like a gigantic quilt! Beautiful blue water outlined by trees on four sides covered such a vast area. I had heard about all the rain that got dumped in SD, but I was not prepared to see the destruction from up above, that’s a whole new level of understanding of what we cannot control. ❤
We feel so bad for the farmers everywhere this year. It’s a hard go when Mother Nature cooperates let alone this happening. Cole/Brian I wish you and your family all the best this year. Stay strong!
Hard to believe all this water after the drought from last year. Every year is different and things can change quickly. Hoping for the best for Sonne Farms.
Cole and Brian, I watched this video and my heart hurt for you guys. It made me want to cry, but I love your attitude. You can’t fix it so move on to the next task and get what you can get at harvest. Keep on keeping on!
Amid all your hard work, many days of tilling, cultivating and planting the soil, there is so much futility. So much loss. But your spirits are indomitable. You labor on because that's all that you can do. And you provide us city-born folks with an example of strength and resolute will that there will be better days ahead. Godspeed to you that it will be so!
I've been thinking about you and hope the rain isn't too hard on you. I have found out. I'll pray for many blessings this summer for you and the family.
After a great 1st cutting and planting. It's heart breaking to see the fields flooded. Thoughts and Prayers the water recedes soon and most of the seedlings survive 🙏 If it wernt for bad luck there'd be no luck at all. Hang in there.
Omg that is a boat load of water. I pray you are all good. The drone footage was amazing. You all rock. Good to see little dog. Praying for you all and hoping for a speedy drying up. Peace.
The life of a farmer. Have to deal with drought conditions for a few years and then turn around and now have to deal with flooded fields and loss of crops. Drone video really showed the flooded fields. Prayers to all the farmers, especially you guys in South Dakota.
heavy rains is always a blessing in disguise. you cant always work the field when its wet as buggery but you can get to the list of chores that have been pushed down out of the way
Amazing to hear you take this so well. I know its not the first time for adversity, but it was just a few episodes ago that haying was going so well and you had high hopes for the summer. Too dry, Too wet, Too hot, Too cold. As Rosanne Rosanadana said, "Chevy, it just goes to show ya, Its always somethin!" ( Cole, if this doesn't ring a bell for you, your dad will know.)
I got ocean front property at Sonne Farms! Sometimes drought years one gets a better production than we years. Mother Nature is always full of surprises!
Hi, yes, thank goodness it's not snow. Here in southeastern Minnesota, we have the Mississippi River, and she created today. But, they are talking another 2 inches of rain tonight - tomorrow. My basement, was finally drying out. Thoughts and prayers for you and all.
Praying that it all resolves for the two of you and your family. My father grew up on a farm and I told him that your fields are flooded and he wisely said “Yeah that happens” ❤
Oh My thats is a lot of rain... PRAYING the farm/crops will recover Cole & Brian... Most important factor is EVERYONE'S Saftey. GBY ALL 🙏❤️💙💖💙🐕🐕...💙🤗✝️
Its tough to see all those acres under water. I guess that is what crop insurance is for. Hopefully the weather for the remainder of this year will be favorable. Love your channel.
I’m gonna have to go back and watch a lot of videos because I not getting any notifications from your videos. I’m still subscribed but I haven’t been getting notified. I missed like 13 videos. I thought you quit making them. Glory to GOD!
Thanks for an amazing amazing drone video on your flooded areas. Absolutely incredible footage!!!!!!!!!! Great job shooting the drone footage Cole. Water everywhere for sure!!!!!!!! Sorry the water has a lot of your acres flooded out. I liked your statement about that is what it is and you and dad were pressing on, nothing you could do about it. Agree with your outlook on the situation!!!!! Nice work you and dad do fence building. You build some of the finest fence work I have seen. Great!!!!!! Once again, sorry some of your acres are flooded out. Hang in there. About it for now. You and dad take care and be safe. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve PS. Lots of flooding here in Iowa. Complete towns under water. Terrible.
I always check your area when I look at the weather radar. I started looking a while back hoping to see you guys were getting rain. When I saw radar screen I was wondering how much rain you guys were getting.
Hey I know your dad loves old John Deere tractor’s, we just got our 1960’s 4020 going. What a sold machine, we changed out all the fluids, and put in new batteries. It cranked right up, I don’t think I’ve seen my husband that happy in a long time. The tractor belonged to his grandfather which dearly loved. I’m going to buy him a new seat for it and a canopy. If you guys know a good 3 party parts place for John Deeres please let me know.
Holy smokes, that’s scary the amount of water you got! Weather has went crazy every where. Hope you recover well. Incredible drone footage! Keeping you all in my prayers and thank you for all your hard work, it’s truly appreciated. ❤️❤️
Dang. Farming is a tough sport. I remember those days of praying for rain, then chopping corn in the mud with one tractor ahead of another. Praying for all you flood victims and hoping for a better summer.
All that water is crazy. Hopefully have some good sub soil moisture after this. Here in central Alberta Canada we are still in a drought. We finally had a 3/4 inch rain the other day but there is still cracks in the ground. That’s the biggest rain we have had in 2 -3 years. Love your channel man I watch every video you put out keep up the good work
Think it was in 94, we got 12.5" on July 4-5... We had a 4th party at the house, remember it started raining at about 11 pm... Yep, what a mess... good luck guys!!!!
As a person who grew up on a small grain farm and owned one myself, I understand how you must feel. Too bad you did not get that 8" spread over June, July and August LAST year.
Hate y’all got the screwball pitch, but awesome to see no whining was involved…took opportunity to get other work done and make best of it👍👍👍 We sure could’ve used about 2” of that downpour here in TX….getting a little crispy down here. Keep on keepin on and enjoy the Texas Cheerleader story line.
Since may 1st we have had over 15 inches of rain and it's not going to quit anytime soon, as I been keeping track of every storm, but I haven't been keeping track of the rain fall, but we got about 5 inches from last Thursday night
Flooding is sad. All those beautiful planted fields. Drone shots really show the reality. Praying that the unaffected fields yield you a bountiful harvest.
I have always admired your positivity in tough situations. As you stated there are others out there who have it worse, but there are those who will only complain about the bad and not be grateful for what they still have…their lives! Thank you❣️
We are wet in east central MN, but not as wet as what you have shown in this video. It has been a tough year for us to plant and now to try and get hay done. I wish you luck out in your area, I think a lot of the mid-west is fighting the wet weather and more on the way. Best of luck to you.
O Lord, praying for ya Cole, Brian, Jeff. Hoping the loss is minimal!!!. Funny thing about the jet ski an the lake front property. Hope all is well with ya
Wow that’s a lot of water in a short amount of time! Nice to have moisture but not all at once! Wishing you well and hope you can dry out soon. Sorry you have to deal with this mess
That's a lot of rain, wow what a scene with those aerials, love them. I need to put a fence up around my waterer with pipe, maybe I should get out there and do it, we'll see. I hope you don't have too much loss on your crops, good luck with the hay. Thanks and I hope you have a nice day.
Feel so bad for your water damage. My daughter lives in Southern GA, and she lives by a creek which flooded her house about 6 weeks ago. She had about six inches in her whole house. They had carpet, (and especially everything on the floors in boxes, furniture, etc. Wallboard and kickplates had to be replaced. Thinking and praying for you.
Been pouring rain for 4 hours straight up here in northwest mn this morning. We DID NOT need any more rain but it’s looking like it’s just one of those years… Hope it dries out so the farmers can salvage what’s left of the crops. Lots of drown out and some that never even got planted. Good luck Sonnes.
My part in this Sonne Farms business is to PRAY and I’ve let you down. Was so looking forward for a bumper crop this year . Maybe it’s still possible for a miracle! Me hopes so!
I'm so sorry for all the farmers. Good that you had that great first cutting in in time (I hope you got most!) And hope all your cattle and houses are safe
WOW that was a surprise!! Those drone shots really showed the extent of the damage!! That is a LOT of water!! Need a lot of BIG holes to store that in for future use. You do have time for other things now but there is SO much that MUST be dont that won't now!! NOT good. Hope it drains and dries quickly. Thanks Cole, great video guys.
Hey Cole-your “fly-over” of the countryside rivals “network coverage”! Sure is beautiful country. Oh, and chuckled on the “Russian” water! Great Video!
Praying always especially for you guys, but for all our farmers. Farming’s gonna be tuff for many, this year. Hope my comment helps with your algorithm on UA-cam. Stay Safe and Well All.
Hey Cole, it would be fun if you could fly your drone over your properties and fields while narrating. It would give us an idea of how big it is in our mind. If you’re shy you could have the clip narrated by your wife! I would really enjoy it and probably would be a first on UA-cam. Thanks Dan
I hope you guys have some good crop insurance. It looks like you have some good swimming holes though. My thoughts and prayers go out to you. It is very hard to see your hard work being wiped out. Mother Nature can be a tough partner. Hang in there we are all with you.
I watched this video and kept thinking. Back during the drought we all prayed for you guys to get the rain. I think we all prayed a little too hard. 😅. Keep up the great work
I was thinking the same thing. Now I pray for Idaho with a.l their water debacle they told farmers to stop pumping from Aquafer...but the new Cobalt mine by Biden and how many other politician investors can pump 24/7
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I’ve been praying too, though I’ve been praying for good hay weather this year after last years was so bad ☹️
Will u get all that new growth baled. Or have to leave it for cows to eat
Mike. Mitchell. and family farms 10,000 acres ,south Saskatchewan, dry land farming , low yields , 5 bushel / acre yields
Now he is getting rained out , but he has a crop in the ground. And praying if he gets another rain in a couple weeks. They should be able to get a 40 bushel crop
God Bless all the Farmers in the World! Past, Present and Future.
SPECTACULAR drone footage! It shows the scale of flooding.
I am looking forward to Cole and Tiffany to have the next generation to teach what your dad had taught you. Love how you and your dad work.
In the future, instead of praying for more rain or dryer temps….I’m just going to pray for you to get the perfect weather you will need at that moment in time. Covering all my bases. Good luck with your new lake front property. ❤
I'm sure it will work this time 👌
Most people don't get how the weather effects the farmer and the crops... It sucks for all of us farmers... Prayers and thoughts to everyone that is dealing with this.....
Crop shortages equals food shortages for livestock and humans. And the farmers know how to survive. Don’t know that I can say that for the majority of the mouths they feed.
Prayers for all impacted by this flooding. I am so sorry for all the farmers who lost crop fields.
This just breaks my heart. You guys work so hard. I appreciate your attitude even though it is a difficult time.
Lake Sonne is WAY bigger than anyone ever thought. Looking forward to fishing it.
Lol next video: Cole pulls into the feed lot with a pontoon hooked to his truck.
This reminds me when my daughter bought me a ticket to come see her in Aberdeen SD. 19 years ago. The pilot went low so we could see the destruction of the rains, it looked like a gigantic quilt! Beautiful blue water outlined by trees on four sides covered such a vast area. I had heard about all the rain that got dumped in SD, but I was not prepared to see the destruction from up above, that’s a whole new level of understanding of what we cannot control. ❤
We feel so bad for the farmers everywhere this year. It’s a hard go when Mother Nature cooperates let alone this happening. Cole/Brian I wish you and your family all the best this year. Stay strong!
Hard to believe all this water after the drought from last year. Every year is different and things can change quickly. Hoping for the best for Sonne Farms.
I think there's plenty of moisture now. You guys are drowning over there. Your drone views really put the conditions into perspective.
Cole and Brian, I watched this video and my heart hurt for you guys. It made me want to cry, but I love your attitude. You can’t fix it so move on to the next task and get what you can get at harvest. Keep on keeping on!
Amid all your hard work, many days of tilling, cultivating and planting the soil, there is so much futility. So much loss. But your spirits are indomitable. You labor on because that's all that you can do. And you provide us city-born folks with an example of strength and resolute will that there will be better days ahead. Godspeed to you that it will be so!
Great attitude Guys.Its allways tough when you get flooding like this but there is a silver lining with replenishing the ground water after a Drought!
Great aerial footage Cole. Wish you could send that rain down our way in Texas . Have a blessed week Brian and Cole
Thank you Cole and Dad Brian hope you all and your families are doing good.Thank you for sharing everything.Sonny is growing.God bless you all.
I've been thinking about you and hope the rain isn't too hard on you. I have found out. I'll pray for many blessings this summer for you and the family.
Praying for you guys
I'd did that..
@@johnbarclay7737. Not working yet. Maybe you need more lessons.
Thanks and GOD BLESS 😀
Keep on keeping on !!! Rain or shine your work is never done !! Thoughts are with you and your neighbors 🙏
After a great 1st cutting and planting.
It's heart breaking to see the fields flooded.
Thoughts and Prayers the water recedes soon and most of the seedlings survive 🙏
If it wernt for bad luck there'd be no luck at all.
Hang in there.
Omg that is a boat load of water. I pray you are all good. The drone footage was amazing. You all rock. Good to see little dog. Praying for you all and hoping for a speedy drying up. Peace.
Prayers from Sturgis....I really feel for y'all 🙏💪💪💪💪💪
One extreme to the other, this year vs last. No doubt you guys would love to see a happy median.
The life of a farmer. Have to deal with drought conditions for a few years and then turn around and now have to deal with flooded fields and loss of crops. Drone video really showed the flooded fields. Prayers to all the farmers, especially you guys in South Dakota.
heavy rains is always a blessing in disguise. you cant always work the field when its wet as buggery but you can get to the list of chores that have been pushed down out of the way
My heart sank when I was all the flooding of your fields. Hope they can come back and not hurt you yields bad
My heart out to you fter all the work and expense then this
Love the rain gauge, It is really getting a work out this spring/summer. Great drone footage, love it, but brought tears to my eyes
Thank you Sonne farms!
Good job guys may the force be with you
Praying for a full recovery
Amazing to hear you take this so well. I know its not the first time for adversity, but it was just a few episodes ago that haying was going so well and you had high hopes for the summer. Too dry, Too wet, Too hot, Too cold. As Rosanne Rosanadana said, "Chevy, it just goes to show ya, Its always somethin!" ( Cole, if this doesn't ring a bell for you, your dad will know.)
I got ocean front property at Sonne Farms! Sometimes drought years one gets a better production than we years. Mother Nature is always full of surprises!
That was some high quality dog footage Cole; you're doing God's work.
Hi, yes, thank goodness it's not snow. Here in southeastern Minnesota, we have the Mississippi River, and she created today. But, they are talking another 2 inches of rain tonight - tomorrow. My basement, was finally drying out. Thoughts and prayers for you and all.
Thanks for the brief time with Sonne.
Praying that it all resolves for the two of you and your family. My father grew up on a farm and I told him that your fields are flooded and he wisely said “Yeah that happens” ❤
Oh My thats is a lot of rain...
PRAYING the farm/crops will recover Cole & Brian...
Most important factor is EVERYONE'S Saftey.
GBY ALL 🙏❤️💙💖💙🐕🐕...💙🤗✝️
So sorry about y'alls flooding and we are dry down here. Little to no rain for a while now. Awesome video guys. Thank you
I was sad to see all the water.. 😢 thank God you got all the hay in . Could you tile some of those fields or no?? More prayers for you. ❤️🙏🇺🇲
Its tough to see all those acres under water. I guess that is what crop insurance is for. Hopefully the weather for the remainder of this year will be favorable.
Love your channel.
My heart goes out to the farmers in your area.
Love, love your attitude!… “keep doing what we do!” It will all be okay! 😊
Start a fish farm I guess! Hope things turn out all right for you guys, and all the other farmers affected by the flooding.❤
I've been wondering how you all made out with the rain. Glad it's not worse and that you are all OK!
You two are amazing while setting post and building a fence! Continue to keep your positive attitude! God is good ❤
Hang in there guys , this too will pass .God Bless all farmers
In 2013 we had 13 inches of rain overnight and 25 inches for the day from a Cyclone there was a little water around cheers from Bundaberg Australia
I have a suggestion that you should get a grapple like you have on the pay loader you need one for the tractor and the skidsteer
I’m gonna have to go back and watch a lot of videos because I not getting any notifications from your videos. I’m still subscribed but I haven’t been getting notified. I missed like 13 videos. I thought you quit making them. Glory to GOD!
every monday wednesday and saturday

The Iowa farm boy. Steve
PS. Lots of flooding here in Iowa. Complete towns under water. Terrible.
Cole, you ready for me to quit praying for rain for you? Ongoing petition before the throne is powerful stuff!
Texas Deb ❤
How is your stock, everyone accounted for????
Wow! The drone videos were awesome… unbelievable
God bless.
Cattle are all good!

So sorry for this disaster. Prayers. I admire you persistence in the challenge. Praying for all farmers and also hope cattle wasn’t harmed.
Did anybody else see the mouse run out of Cole's pant leg and run under the pallet it's at 12:40 in video
All that water is crazy. Hopefully have some good sub soil moisture after this. Here in central Alberta Canada we are still in a drought.

Wow, that’s a lot of water. Been watching the flooding down the Missouri and wondering how you faired. Thanks for the video.
I am glad you guys got your hay done and off the field
As a person who grew up on a small grain farm and owned one myself, I understand how you must feel. Too bad you did not get that 8" spread over June, July and August LAST year.
I live in canton, the floods were so bad, my basement thankfully didn't flood but it could've been worse

Hope yall and yours are all safe and recover where necessary. So sorry. Be careful, God Bless
Boy that was a hard video to watch. I feel you guys pain. Thanks for sharing
Dang that’s a lot of rain. Very efficient fence work. Good vlog.
How is your garden doing? I can't believe all the rain that most places have had this year. Stay dry and safe.
We are wet in east central MN, but not as wet as what you have shown in this video. It has been a tough year for us to plant and now to try and get hay done. I wish you luck out in your area, I think a lot of the mid-west is fighting the wet weather and more on the way. Best of luck to you.
O Lord, praying for ya Cole, Brian, Jeff. Hoping the loss is minimal!!!. Funny thing about the jet ski an the lake front property. Hope all is well with ya
Prayers to everyone....when was this?
About a week and a half ago.
Wow that’s a lot of water in a short amount of time! Nice to have moisture but not all at once!
Wishing you well and hope you can dry out soon. Sorry you have to deal with this mess
That's a lot of rain, wow what a scene with those aerials, love them. I need to put a fence up around my waterer with pipe, maybe I should get out there and do it, we'll see. I hope you don't have too much loss on your crops, good luck with the hay. Thanks and I hope you have a nice day.
Great drone footage. Thank you for sharing
Good to see you made it through
Fantastic drone work. Really enjoyed that

I'm so sorry for all the farmers. Good that you had that great first cutting in in time (I hope you got most!) And hope all your cattle and houses are safe
And since Cole never talked about it, I'm glad those bales didn't get flooded.
G’job fellas, Cole, you can start a business building boat docks at this rate. Y’all take care and God Bless🇺🇸💪🏻🇺🇸
WOW that was a surprise!! Those drone shots really showed the extent of the damage!! That is a LOT of water!! Need a lot of BIG holes to store that in for future use. You do have time for other things now but there is SO much that MUST be dont that won't now!! NOT good. Hope it drains and dries quickly. Thanks Cole, great video guys.
Hey Cole-your “fly-over” of the countryside rivals “network coverage”! Sure is beautiful country. Oh, and chuckled on the “Russian” water! Great Video!
Great drone footage.
Bummer about all the rain.
maybe all that moisture will make for a bumper 2nd hay cutting to make up for the corn/beans loss?
Praying always especially for you guys, but for all our farmers. Farming’s gonna be tuff for many, this year. Hope my comment helps with your algorithm on UA-cam.
Stay Safe and Well All.
Hey Cole, it would be fun if you could fly your drone over your properties and fields while narrating. It would give us an idea of how big it is in our mind. If you’re shy you could have the clip narrated by your wife! I would really enjoy it and probably would be a first on UA-cam. Thanks Dan
I hope you guys have some good crop insurance. It looks like you have some good swimming holes though. My thoughts and prayers go out to you. It is very hard to see your hard
work being wiped out. Mother Nature can be a tough partner. Hang in there we are all with you.
Sonne Lakes. All that water is no joke. I’m so sorry for all your crop losses.
That drill for the fence posts looks like what my dentist uses 😊
