Ditching the crawfish fields
มุมมอง 7523 ปีที่แล้ว
Ditching so we can get the crawfish to burrow and we can start plowing once it’s all drained off and dried.

Crawfish boat work

We had to pull the boat back to the shop to do some patch work to finish the year off. After the season we will replace the bottom of the boat.

Crawfish season is right around the corner.....

Just a little bit of what’s going on this week. Hopefully within the next month we will be crawfishing!!!
Building levees for the crawfish ponds...
มุมมอง 4K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Building some levees with the Terracing Plow. I wasn’t able to take any footage from inside the cab because it was too difficult. Building levees from scratch pretty much takes a lot of work. Enjoy this short video!!

This was a few days of cutting rice that I put together for everyone to see the many steps of cutting rice in South Louisiana. I hope you all enjoy it as much as we enjoy filming this for the world to see.
Crawfish pond work!
มุมมอง 1.7K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Getting more off the to-do list in order for the up coming crawfish season. Pulling trees off levees, to bush hogging, even plowing and the final bit of water leveling. Still have a long ways to go before the rice can be planted, but hey!! We are making progress!

I found you through TikTok. Where I live they grow corn, soybeans,wheat, and cotton. Its really interesting to see the rice farming operation, since there are no rice farms near me. I definitely enjoy your channel.
13 min 40 seconds in the drone footage that was cool the first minute is over and to the good part
That is a different way of doing things. I am from the Lake Charles area and have never heard or seen this before.
Those are some nice Louisiana red's
Great content, and i especially appreciate the add free videos. Them ads are so annoying. Keep up the good work.
You expect that thing to start easy thank again sitting for 9yrs not possible
That is not a John Deere 60, that's a John Deere AR.
It's a John deere 60 standard low seat
Any new videos coming soon?
Yes, we are about to make another one very soon. Thank you for watching out channel!!
@jtcrawfishfarmsllc3674 awesome, we'll be on the lookout.. I'm up the road from you in iota
Thay coming just like Jesus just stand stil and tell the next boss man I need a job when I turn 70 loll
I see the next boss man
Water bill gets expensive with washing don’t it? 🤦♂️ I go through the same at times. Northeast LA.
That tractor’s in rough shape and has seen better days
Sounds like the old 404 has at least one hole down on compression. From the looks of things it ought to be on its way to Sikeston MO
You didn't show nobody tasting it 🤷🏾♂️
Here are some tips for startup and drive: 1. Push the choke in after startup 2. NEVER immediately push the clutch in because if there is somebody or something on the tractor it could cause them to fall off. Make sure to always ease into it before locking it into position, but don't take too long easing into it because that burns the clutch up.
I wonder why you don't put the traps in different spots? Does your propeller kill crawfish?
Love you're small operati9n. I so much hope you survive the first years and become successful. Long term. Hard work, be toght with your money. Be frifty . You will make it.
O nptoced the boat driver placing each new baited trap right before he picked one up. Do crawfish travel that far ? Im just wondering if each new baited trap would be more productive if placed halfway between the earlier baited traps. Do mudbugs travel that far?
You spoke about the crawfish molting. Why isnt that a good time to harvest at least some of them? I pay a premimum for soft shell crab. Why no soft shell crawfish?
Immediate suscribe and like. Good luck to start your centure.
Best of luck to you dude. We all had to start somewhere and work our way up. May you reap a bountiful harvest.
LOL they finally pave that disgrace they called a road where you turned right there on 13.
Yes and it doesn’t beat up on our tractors and equipment when we go down the hwy now.
I think you need a basket wheel on the rig, that's what I think..Good video though with the drone
Thank you, we are running one boat this year with a basket on it. The setup is expensive to swap but well worth it.
Planted just for the crawfish? Expensive, but the crawfish don't grow well on grass alone from what I've seen
We have farmed each year a property with grass and have not had any good results. We will stay with planting the rice for the crawfish as we have found it is the best food source for them.
I'm kind of right around the corner from you in Cossinade. That's what I like to hear, good yields with paid for equipment.
Follow me on my Facebook page, Instagram and TikTok.
The older guy spraying the ether in the breather reminds of my grandpa, a farmer who could fix anything, and taught me more about everything than my college professors. I miss him!
That’s exactly who he is to me. I grew up two houses down from his farm. Now I help him farm and he helps me farm. He’s my Paw now. All my children call him Paw. He teaches me, guides me and is always there for me. He can fix anything as well. Old school farmer. He doesn’t call the dealership for every little problem. He learns and fixes it himself. His dad bought this tractor new on his farm in the 70’s and now he has passed it down to me. I learn a lot from that man. Thank you for the kind words and inspiration.
What is the purpose of working in water. Why didnt you work with dry soil while leveling?
We kept getting rain and the soil wouldn’t dry. So we made the decision to go in and turn it up with the plow to make it dry. We have a certain time to get the rice for the crawfish planted. So we where running out of time and had to do it this way. South Louisiana is so different than anywhere else. Our soils are different and so are the farming techniques. We still farm the old conventional way at times when we are forced to do so.
Boy I sure miss them days! Ran off to the oilfield though lol. We used to farm South of Lake Charles and Iowa Down towards Holmwood.
seed type?
What happened to the interior
Are you driving through Rayne? I was just there picking up used crawfish traps back in November.
I sure was!
@@jtcrawfishfarmsllc3674 The farmers I bought the traps from we’re just north of you. They gave me some Boudin. Man that stuff was good!
450 lbs. per acre? Wow! In 450 pounds of material , how much of it is nitrogen?
Each field is different when we are growing a rice crop. A lot of it was nitrogen.
I like your videos. Keep making more. I have 25 acres of pasture that has maybe 3 or 4 acres of wet areas that are full of crawfish down here in south Texas. I'm gonna build levees around them to keep them wet and hopefully I can harvest 200 or 300 pounds a year to enjoy with my family.
I’ll be dipped. Never thought of doing that. I Always wanted the crispy skin and smoked flavor. Must admit it’s worth trying.
That right front tire is a rice tire, and so are the rear tires. The Bendix starter gear is bad. But if you into restoring antic tractors, than this is a good one to fix up. Once repaired it will run for many many hours of use. I don't see a pto, which is common in Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and other wheat belt states.
Is this the first season for the crawfish since you bought the 40 acres you need to have a boat with a smaller engine to be faster for the big average of crawfish farming
One neighbor has a 4430 power shift bout the same shape, but it just feeds cattle and sows a little feed any more,I think It's on it third or fourth time around
Sure do miss my youth with my dad hauling rice. Great memories!
Man, she looks like she’s had a pretty hard life. Great job getting her going again.
Awesome family shots
Thank you very much.
Was always my favorite time of year. Glad y’all had a good one
Yes it’s always my favorite time of the year. We had a few issues this year with the combine. But once the bugs where worked out we were good.
What a great video! About a year ago my cousin and myself manage to get my father’s Jd 4630 started after about Eight years no use . We added a gear reduction starter and we had to bleed the fuel system and said a prayer and she started up.
What a great video!
Helo your
You need to get that truck inspected, J. lol
We did, new windshield and everything!
Looking good bro!! Need to go and check it out when I get in
We put in some work this year. We where hoping to get more done this year than we did, but we fought Mother Nature the whole time.
What date y’all planted?
August 10th when we put the seed in the ground.
Like your videos
Thank you very much!
Iowa Farmer here and would love to be doing what you’re doing. Why don’t you ditch after you drain? Just curious. Thank you!
I think you answered my question in the video, so water can drain better?
Yes, I try to explain the best I can in the videos why we do certain things. It just helps drain better and faster.
Seemed like a dead dino
