Every time I see corn fields, I remember my grandfather's gravesite in Eagle Cemetery east of Lincoln. Surrounded on 3 sides by cornfields and a local racetrack across the road. Pure American Country living. I couldn't picture a better spot to spend eternity. He died in 1928.
It will not sorry i you so eee to be thik hai bolya aa yr old daughter is time sensitive regret
Nice to see you running those Titan-Goodyear large rear farm tires. I worked in the Goodyear tire plant in Freeport Illinois for 38 years and built those bad boys. Im now retired and you are supporting my pension purchasing Titan-Goodyear tires. Thank you.
Would keep the big tires for ground work, here in Europe every new 200+HP tractor is equipped with at least 710 (or even 900s) tires to get all the power to the ground properly, less ground pressure and less soil compaction.
Always in awe of how you do time management and get the vid's out to us.
It's obvious you guys absolutely love what you're doing!
Really enjoy all the technical stuff about how things work and what the purpose is. Good stuff.
Thanks guys! It'll never get old.
Laura, I love seeing you in the tractor again. - those large tyres made you look small, I suppose the question will be asked, did you really need to have the large wheels fitted! I know they did have the use of spreading the weight over a larger area.
Thanks for the video, Laura & Grant. Love from Mike. ❤❤
Great video, I have always wondered what goes on at the farms I drive past. Thanks for taking us along
We all love you Laura. You and Grant make an incredible couple. Your smile, charm, and loving ways captivate all of us who can appreciate just how special you are. Okay, I'm brimming over with appreciation. You are the #1 channel in your space. I so look forward to seeing them. I'm from Pennsylvannia which is the original home of the Amish farmland which I am pretty close by. Thanks for letting me chat. Keep up the great work.
Cultivating is really the only tractor work I managed to get in before grandpa retired and sold the farm. There was a small fork hanging off the left side of the frame behind the front tire that you would center over the row. I don't know if he made it himself, or if it was a factory part. I can say that afternoon was a memory I will never forget.
looks better with the big tires
Great video! You took the time to explain in detail what you were doing and why. A lot of fun to watch.
I always enjoy learning about the job, Laura.... thanks so much for your thoughts and your info...and thank you for sharing!!😊
15:01 The drone footage and the accompanied music were awesome, we need more please.
I hope you solve the mystery of the big hole in your field. Do you have drainage tiles in these fields? That looked big enough to damage your equipment. It’s really something how the tractor looked like a completely different machine by changing the tires. And how the corn has gone from little seedlings to several feet tall seemingly overnight. You guys are good stewards of your land
Missed this one by a few days becaause I've been off on vacation driving around the country. Thanks to Laura Farms it was a lot more interesting as I looked at all the various farms and pieces of equipment that I drove past with some vague idea of how it all works. I find myself looking at John Deere Tractors to see what model they are and what operation they are set up for. Thanks so much!
Big tires definitely looks 1000% better, for sure. Hope we'll see them back on the tractor soon :)
Thanks for sharing how things are run and why. I have learned a lot from watching these videos. Good stuff, you can never learn enough.
They are plow bolts, similar to carriage bolts and elevator bolts.
I work on my neighbors farm, where they use super old tractors and the also use cultivators. They seem to do a pretty good job.
Hope hope solve the problem of the hole. Maybe a skidsteer bucket or two of dirt will do the job. Thanks so much for your videos. I learn a ton from you guys.
@Laura: I admire you and Grant. You are telling an important story about farmers thru your videos. And you don't don't get troubled with getting your hands dirty.
Without farmers like you all, there wouldn't be food on most families' tables. My Grandpa was a farmer, and my brothers and I spent summers with him on his farm just west of Mankato, KS. We got up before daylight and worked all day with him until sunset. I learned so much.
I think it's great that you believe in culvating.
When I was a kid some farmers culvated more than once during the season.
As always excellent. So good at explaining to all of us what you are doing and why.
One minor question... You guys have a skid steer, i seem to remember you have pallet forks for it... Why not roll your tires on those and put em in the shop with it?
Because watching Laura struggle with them is better TH-cam content.
Yep!
Well Laura! We are not near as large as far as what you and Grant farm but here in Western Pennsylvania we like to cultivate granular urea into our corn at about knee-high. We just did that this past Saturday the 23rd of June. And talk about old fashioned we do ours with a 1941 Farmall b and they 1950 Farmall c. We spread the fertilizer with a 1960 Farmall 460. We have newer stuff but these older smaller ones that particular job better. Looks as if your corn has a good start I hope you have a good season . Stay safe 😊😊
Over the years it has been interesting to see the push to no-till, then what seemed somewhat slowly back to at least minimum tillage. Interesting to see going back to mechanical cultivating (like I remember many years ago). I'd guess there is a trade-off between the cost of herbicide vs fuel and time to make the cultivation pass). Amazing to see you make that pass where the corn is so close to being too tall for the cultivator.
Love Coming Along With You In Tractor for 🚜
Thanks Laura!!
Keep Smiling On!!
😄👍👊❤️
I'm new to your channel but I love your video's about your farming operation. I live in the Piedmont area of North Carolina and we don't see grain farming that BIG around here. Thanks for your videos and keep them coming.
You ought to ride down northeastern NC if you get the time. There are some farms with rows over ten miles in good rich black soil. Laura does have a really good channel!
Piedmont is in South Carolina
Superb landscapes, magnificent descriptions made by the lovely Laura who make you want to discover her remarkable State for those, like me, who do not know her yet.
I’m in western Iowa. Our corn as of 6/22 is well over 6 foot tall. It’s amazing the difference 100 miles makes.
❤ I Love How Detail..With Your Teaching with all the Farm Equipment..
Thanks for taking me along on todays lesson, very educational Laura. I always get a kick out of seeing your nails and jewelry, such a hard working young farmer! Your energy is contageous and you and Grant are just awesome and fun to watch - always brightens my day. Thanks for all you are doing.
Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope you have a wonderful day.God bless you!!❤
Nice! Thanks for letting us tag along with you!😊
Wow! Laura! Another great video with a lot of great information. Your passion for the farm and big machinery is amazing. Thank you for the video Laura. You should name your amazing looking tractor.
Have worked on various Farms in my Life of 38 years...
Helped fix many important implements...literally sliced my finger unscrewing/taking off a piece from a Crustbuster...dangerous job
Must use much precaution when repairing and diagnosing issues
I see your and it brings up memories of our pineapple fields of old across our state. Miss the old days, great job Laura
Great video! Here in South Texas the grain harvest is just stating. We have a good Grain Sorghum crop but to dry for a Cotton crop.
I love y'all's videos so much... You guys are everything i wish every American family was! I can't wait for your next video! Bravo!!
I'm working on little corn with big ears. The side shoots I'm finding is trigger by low light. The chopping of the top tassel and letting the side shoots pollination the corn.
The corn down in the Mississippi Delta is well over head high and beginning to tassel out. The soy beans are just about knee high and the rice is growing nicely.
I can see the use fir the big tires when working ground or planting the way yall do but the way we plant around here they would not work out well we have to hip our ground and we plant on the tops of the ridges so the crops dont drowned out in the spring and the floater tires would mash the rows down
Each tire has its own purpose. The Titan tires when working wet soil is a great fix
Getting mud between duels is hard to remove and hard on axel and transmission.
Watched where you came across that hole out amongst the corn field and it actually looks like an impact crater. I noticed how everything looks to be pushing outwards, even that small plant.
Meteors don't have PVC. Old water wells can.
The duals are better on wetter land because big rubber just squishes soil aside and means you need to disk out the ruts. The important factor is the amount of pressure beneath each wheel. Consider duals in front as well. TSH, retired agronomist, NC.
Your corn looks a lot better than what I'm seeing in my part of eastern Iowa. There was a local farmer on the news the other night who said his farm hadn't had rain since May 8th. Any rain that comes into the area just dries up when it gets here because there's just no moisture in the air or the ground.
Grant made some good drone video clips.
Laura,we need more of these clips!
I'm always amazed by the size of the fields and machinery compared to when I was young.
There could be three to five family farms in a square mile.
We were to close to a big city though. Everything eventually tired into housing developments
greetings Laura I tell you a story! Looking for I don't know what I found your channel, and since then I have not stopped watching your videos, they are relaxing for me, in addition to seeing the great work and knowing the massive production Made in America 💪 Greetings from Puerto Rico!!! and right now I'm watching this Relax Video with Coffee in Hand 🤣
The sweeps around PHX last on sandyrocky soil about 15acres on hard clotty n rocks breaks shanks too
I was in your part of the world last week at the Red Power Roundup, International Harvester,100 years of Farmall, farm show in Grand Island. Went to Winchester's in Phillips and Runza's, Casey's and the Plainsman Museum in Aurora. Saw a lot of farmers cultivating/ridging in Hamilton an Adams counties. Compared to northeast Missouri you are a "garden spot" due to whatever rains you are getting; and we are approaching "extreme" drought conditions. I had "tile blowout" holes like that when I farmed in the Illinois River bottoms; and they could really be a hazard, especially when I was cultivating like you are doing or when I was post-emergence spraying. Another good video.
Those tires are just so cool! Watching our “Tiny Farmer” manhandle those monsters was a little scary. 😮 Your videos are so entertaining while being very informative….I can see why the “whole world” loves ❤you! Keep up the great work!
I really like your videos! Thank you for using the "old school" tools for minimizing pesticide / insecticide use.
That cultivator shoe was just like my body, all worn out after years and years of use.
I sometimes wonder if Dad didn't trust me or if he just enjoyed doing some jobs himself as he never had me plant, cultivate or run the harvesting equipment. My job was to do all the grunt work like hefting bags of seed and fertilizer, tossing bales of hay and shoveling grain. But then I think he really wanted me to be an engineer like he saw at NASA rather than a farmer. Funny thing is that once I went off to college he quit farming and went to work in town.
Here on the Palouse where we grow wheat, peas, garbs and lentils, to name a few, spacing is too close for any tires and mud can be bottomless, everyone just leaves their big flotation tires on. The ground pressure is so low it usually doesn't kill any plants.
Nothing like a clean field, nice going Laura and Grant .....
Hey hi Laura nice working in your farm Nice 👍 work and nice growing corn 🌽 I remember that when I was working in my farm with my dad your information is so much useful Nice up keep it up
Can't believe your cultivation vs our cultivation driving in the 1960's - didn't spend much time looking around and you could always tell the after lunch early afternoon sleepy tear out the corn patches
True, it is old school cultivating corn but sometimes old school is the best way. I personally like cultivating corn, I believe that it is beneficial to the health of the corn plant without chrmicals.
Laura and Grant that was great enjoyed great explanations thank you for sharing and your time was really great never miss a video and can't wait for next video 😊
Love the big tires! Must make the ride a much more pleasant experience.
Nicely done and the video explanation well done and appreciated ! ( from Canada )
There’s just something so satisfying about drone shots over cornfields. Great job Laura and Grant! I petition for more snack bag reveals tho 😂
Thanks for sharing! ❤
I was taught how to drive on a John Deere "B" while cultivating Soy beans. I was 5 years old and my my mom would drop me off at the field to get on the tractor wit my dad. My kindergarten teacher actually said in one of my report cards that I could not focus, because I was so excited to get to drive. lol. I love your channel and Watch it all the time!! Y'all stay safe!!
I've learned a lot about farming from your videos. Saw some pivots in Georgia and had to look to see if they were electric or diesel 😅
I've learned so much about your kind of farming watching Grant and you take care of your farm. Thanks!
Glad to see someone still does it the old fashioned way. After that crowns out, you shouldn't have to worry about weeds. Seeing those plow shanks and hardening them up with a torch brings back memories. We had a full blacksmiths shop on our little farm and every spring, we had the ritual of "sharpening plows" and doing the heat treat to harden up the tips. Got a lot more wear that way. That hole looked like a collapsed tile inlet at first, but it looked like it was on higher ground, so that doesn't make sense. if it were down here in the South, I'd say it was made by wild hogs, but don't think you have those up there, and if you did they'd damage half your crop. Might be a sinkhole/sand pocket.
Looking so beautiful fields of corn.
Cultivating is just lifting up the soil between the corn. To loosen up the soil for water absorption.
I'm amazed at the size and enormity of all large scale farming equipment.
So much respect for this young woman, she blows my mind. ❤
Hello 👋
Like the big tires looks better with them but understand you need the small one for the crops thanks for all the Great videos bye for now from east Tennessee 😊
red power roundup last weekend was great and I'm sure I drove past your I 80 field or fields they all looked great! I met Pete from Just a few acres farm in New York he was at the show! I didn't figure y'all would be there but I kept my eyes peeled knowing I was in your general stomping grounds. Thanks for all the good wholesome and educational content
Nice work and I like the use of the cultivator..
Back to the basics; how true! I can remember my Uncle cultivating with a 'B' John Deere back in the 50s.
Gr8 Vid & THANK ALL the FARMERS, RANCHERS, & TRUCKERS for feeding the GLOBE!!!!!!!😎💯🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊
Happy for you and Grant, can't wait until we see kids, your going to be the best mom
Man that hole looked enormous. I could imagine what would have happened if you drove into it.
Imagine if she was doing her morning routine of putting on her mascara and curling her eyelashes, and hit that hole?!?!
@@farmboy5622 You are right...I never go farming with makeup on.....Joe☺
The big hole in the field looks like a tile washout, we get them alot in NW Ohio/ NE Indiana, arond here when the old clay tile breaks in a certain spot, then the ground washes out in that spot creating a big deep hole, the easiest option to cure it, is go out with a mini excavator or a backhoe, dig down to the tile spot, shove new perforated poly tile in so it overlaps on both sides then cover it back up.
Beautiful corn...Nice work!
I always love big rubber. Looks much smaller with row crop tires.but it looks good
Looks wise, the big tires get the prize. This, from a non-farmer in Gilbert AZ. My wife grew up in a family that owned a Red Tractor dealership and ranched for decades. I drove a Red Tractor 560 for a summer (HOT) on the Texas Panhandle. So, I have the greatest respect for our country's farming families. Miracle Workers.
Laura, it looks like you have a broken irrigation pipe there. You havea really good eye for hazards in the field, and it looks like it saved you a whole lot of hurt this time!
I can't wait for the next video!
Dang ... Laura getting a workout rolling them big ole' tires. You go girl !!
You could put duals on the front of the 8325R as well. Still not quite the same tire presence as those big ol' LSWs though!
Wow. This is impressive. Especially the auto steer. Didn't know about that.
love the look of the big tires
When you found the hole you could of checked the GPS cords so you could find it easier to set up a larger flag for when the corn growns taller.
We were on I80 on Father’s Day and drove by your farm. I am sure you remember. 😊 I was surprised by the height of the corn.
That's one big gofer hole in the field and great video and great job with the tires and stay safe and God bless from GA
Never saw such huge area of corn fields. Makes me stoning 😳 Greetings from Austria
Thank you Laura and Grant enjoyed it.
Hello there👋👋,how are you doing today?hope you have a wonderful day.God bless you!!❤
50 Years ago, we had no fancy equipment. We had Farmall. Open air. Dusty dirty hard work.
Farming all science- fiction to me now days .Good season and many more , you young couple .
Enjoyed the video Laura. Loving your channel from New Bern NC where we spend a lot of time “Watching the River Flow”
❤️🦅♥️✝️🇺🇸
The hole is an old collapsed water well most likely. If it is, the hole will continue to get larger and or deeper. It could also be an old unused supply pipe for an old sprinkler or flood irrigation system. It all depends on the precise location within the field.
Nice video Grant and Laura.
Sometimes the ‘old-fashioned’ equipment is indispensable.
... Love this channel ,, showing what it takes to provide for lifes existence for the masses ... Stay Safe and God Bless ...
Probably a broken drainage tile that caused that hole. Cool drone footage, as always!
Auto steer is a Godsend for cultivating. I always had to fight the head bobbing from staring at the rows to keep it steering in the middle. Yeah, i'm guilty of wiping out some rows.
thanks for sharing these
