- Hello and welcome back to Fehr's Farming Organic. After some problems with some video storage we are back up and running. With about one week left before the corn gets to tall to get the tractor in the field I shot a quick video covering some points on how we fight off the weed pressure during these summer months. Enjoy the video and leave and like and share and show to all your friends! Follow us on Instagram @fehrsfarmingorganic
I grew up on a cattle and wheat farm. We raised Milo several times. Used to cultivate it at least twice. And step dad planted with a 4 row John Deere planter without row markers. And he could make the straightest rows ever. Made cultivating so easy. Great to see folks still doing this. We even plowed every other year.
Before my real dad passed we lived for 6 years in Sloan Iowa. He worked construction and we were up there. He rented a house out in the country and I loved watching the man that farmed that place cultivating. He ran nothing but IH.
Thanks and good luck!
It’s crazy how precise farmers where back in the day. I’ve heard stories of how the used to put mirrors on the front wheel axles so they could see the rows and that was how my grandpa and my father keep their lines straight during row crop cultivating! Awesome comment and I hope you enjoy watching the videos!
@@FehrsFarmingOrganic just discovered your channel and I love it. Recently made a trip to Sloan and Sioux city and went back to where we lived for those 6 years. The equipment has changed but the farms are still there. Thank you and keep up your good work!
Good to see good old fashioned cultivating. We used a John Deere 3010. You have a sweet setup. Glad to see Organic farming. Keep up the great work.
Thank you sir!
Educational vid! 👍
awesome thanks
Amazing job of weed control!
Thank you sir!
Hello! Greetings from Portugal.
What is fertility program. Are you non GMO? This year your cost savings on inputs would be incredible!
We are Non GMO, we also hand weed so that would be another input as well. It definitely is a different type of farming!
Bonjour je suis intéressé le saclobinage
Et je suis basé au Cameroun
Who makes that 24 row bar?
Our were custom made locally!
How do you cultivate the point rows?
We try to cultivate until the very outside sweep starts to take out a row then I’ll shift over 30 inches away from the point row and cultivate until I get right up to h the row of corn again and so on and so on if that makes sense!
Organic, just as desteuctive as chemicals
In what way ?
@@jaarfarms9932 cultivation, silly
@@jaarfarms9932 it kills the beneficial,organisms; fungi, protozoa, nematodes, micro and macro arthropods, burns up essential soil carbo/organic matter, encourages nitrates, which in turn encourage primary plants, also known as the primary weed.
and most crop plants prefer ammonium over nitrate.
What chemical/seed company do you work for?
@@dkaspar67 none of the above, bruv, hence my other replies
