Love yall content! Also crop critics content too. Definitely seeing this year since we put in furrow on the planter that emergence was more consistent on earlier planting and was also a little drier from being mature a little faster and plant food being available in low biological activity cooler soil temps
Matt, that corn snout plastic lower tab could be replaced with a steel "L" bracket sandwiched from the bottom side to the plate on top. You might make a few up to have on the shelf. Plasticizer chemicals in those plastic parts will get more brittle over time; hopefully the factory did rapid aging tests to see what other surprises are in the future. If you have any of the snouts crack across the body/etc, remember to look up plastic repairs using metal window bug screen patches melted across the breaks (heat gun/soldering iron).
But I would be painting those black Snout red so you can see in the dark even though you have contour header height there's always time for a hiccup when harvesting. Even though my John Deere head I'd like to paint the black points on the front of the snout yellow or fluorescent orange just so I can see
You might buy an old four row corn picker so you don't have to jump thirty three rows but only twelve when trying to stay in the honey hole of corn yield. While the high yield competitions are split by irrigated and dryland; they should add a third category: dryland-high-profits (high yield is great but how many inputs went into that yield?) or something equivalent that can help foster Regen Ag principles. You've done Regen Ag enough years on enough acres and worked with university research groups that you could likely develop "The Griggs Corn Competition" between farmers and youtubers using low inputs. First five years it's all self reported honor system but using good test principles and easy data tracking. It's important to know if a superstar got five hundred bushel of corn per acre but spent six hundred bushel of expenses they are not looking so fantastic. Might include some equipment financing/age/models ore something. One farmer growing with two year old equipment financing is a whole lot different than a neighbor using forty year old equipment with long-gone payments.
Glad to see you getting some good yields! Hope the rest of harvest is just as good, thanks for sharing!
Good video good to see y'all
Congratulations on such great yielding results.. you should be very proud of your management practices.
Man 114day corn would be nice. You guys in the south sure have nice weather down there love your yields Matt I’m hoping your cotton is as good.

Enjoyed!!
Matt the golden rod in front of the header looks good for the bees
spool gun and argon bottle, welds alum well (with practice!)

Good yields should help pay the bills . Glad to see after last year .

You can buy a spool gun for your miller 250 then you need a argon cylinder best is a Helium Argon mix
You definitely need a 1100 bu cart. By the time you get done with the drill you’ll want a 360 horse tractor.🤣
U paid for what I got no complaining
