Great Video Trevor, that Horsch Drill is impressive, thanks for sharing
Thanks Tony!
Another informative video on the life and times as a wheat farmer in Palouse.
Nice work, Those long shots show the Palouse perfectly!
Thanks for the planting shots love to watch I'll be a farmer till I'm not.😂😂
That’s a lot of seed! Awesome shots!
Thanks Joel!
Great video.
Nice video, and great music as always.
The Horsch headquarter in Schwandorf is about 70km from me. Nice to see more and more bavarian machines over there in the states.
Everyone that can afford them, runs them. Shipping from Germany is expensive. Thats awesome tho that youre so close to where the carts are made.
@@TrevorStruthers Yeah thats true. But here in europe its the same when I want something from the states, thanks to the EU mafia.
Hey and many thanks to you for including ''The Poor'' in a few of your videos. Discovered Jesse Welles that way. The perfect song for these current times.
@@nicoquattro3950 yeah! I think he gave that song to the poor. At least for now! Jesse will eventually copyrite it and monetize it possibly.
Thanks Trevor, very informative!
Great video ☺
Magnifique vidéo et les tracteur à chenille et le semoirs trene et bien équipés et bien intéressante 😂😮😅😊
Yes they are! Thank you Frederic
Great video Trevor. Nice equipment. That 38 foot drill looks so small behind the 620 in the large fields. Looks cold out there. Is it normally that chilly this time of year? We are looking forward to visiting in a few weeks. I suppose all field work will be finished.
Some of it may still be going. Seeding can go on til November in spots here. My dads irrigated circles dont get planted til end of oct or early november becuase potatoes are being harvested
We are getting ready for our trip and visit.
Word !
Thank you for the comment! This was the only one for hours. Word! Indeed
So do you guys use guidance systems?
We farm pretty flat and square so guidance is good for maximizing the processes.
We use free form when we cant use A B straight guidance. It follows the last pass and does pretty well. My vector self propelled has 73 sections so that i dont overlap, but everything else ive ever ran has a ton of overlap. Even with guidance, we got a lot of tiny pieces and that makes for waste
Hello! One has to drill in order to reap...
Lol. Thats what we say around here.
@@TrevorStruthers 👌
Do you buy seed or clean your own to sow?
We all used to treat our own, but with seed treating on demand…its just to easy to buy it. Not mentioning that Coaxium and Clearfield wheat cant be replanted because copywritie or patent violations.
Trevor here in Australia if the property owner had that many wind generator on his property he could retire from farming they pay that much.
Same goes here. They got farming in the blood though
Why does wheat grown and harvested in Washington end up in China, when we could have been building a reserve in case of bad crop years or drought?
Money
Plus storage
There are grain reserves, but east asia takes most of the grain from the northwest because its very high quality.
@@TrevorStruthersare ammo is high quality why don't we give that to them as well,Palouse farmers are sellouts and don't care as long as there paid.
Are ammo is high quality why don't we give them that to, Palouse farmers are sellouts and don't care who gets there grain as long as there paid.
If palouse grain is highy quality why send it oversea when its needed here? China is preparing for war and now holds 40% of the world's wheat; I bet a lot of that grain is stamped "palouse". Makes no diffence though what's done is done, your young and of draft age. How do you feel knowing the enemy has full stomachs because you gave it to them? At least you can rest assured that your wheat went where hungry mouths were.
How about 'China as the 2nd largest 'US-T-Bond holder as they had increase it by $11.9,.as 'Washington cash burn is around 1$ trillion, every 11 months, no sweat as lawmakers, had suspended the debt ceiling until Jan-2025,.how's that for 'vendor finance.
Where to even begin here? First of all, you aren't taking the many steps in the chain from wheat field to final customer into consideration. A Palouse farmer sells the grain to a local grain growers' co-op. The co-op sells the grain to exporters in Portland, OR. The exporters are the ones who decide who to sell it to, not the Palouse farmer. That's how our American free market economy works. It's vastly more complex than you are making it out to be. There are also many different types of wheat, and the type of wheat grown here happens to be a type that is ideal for making food products like noodles. Asia happens to be a market that has high demand for this type of wheat because they eat a lot of noodles. Maybe you should do your patriotic duty and start eating more noodles to ensure that there is an American market interested in buying Palouse wheat.
