Jusr watched the video where you got sick sure hope you’re feeling better I watch all your videos and really enjoy them I was raised on a farm so I really appreciate all the hard work farmers do once again I sincerely hope you recover from your bout with whatever it was take God Bless you and all farmers!
Thank God the weather's holding.🙏 The roads are packed with tractors, wagons, manure tankers, semi dump trucks and tandem dumpers hauling chopped corn. Feed goes in, manure comes back out.👍West side of the state is in high gear.
Thanks for another great video Kip. Thanks for the drone footage. Is always enjoyable. Gives you a good view of what is going on in the field. Thanks much. Busy busy busy time when haying. Cutting and raking and loading wagons and then filling the silos. Lots of teamwork there. I have memories from silo filling. Hard work. Lots of machinery to keep going. Wow. Love your silage wagons. Not many farmers using them anymore. I can see why you buy up what you can get your hands on. Yours are in excellent shape. My compliments to all of you. Those silo machines take a lot of hard work. I see one of yours is down for repairs. Not many guys work on them anymore. Have you ever thought about going to silage pits???? Thanks for everything Kip. Be careful in the heat. The Iowa Farm Boy.
Love the smell of a working fair farm not better I was raised on a dairy farm in northern Illinois every time the wife and I go to the fair I always gotta take a walk through the dairy barn to get a little smell of home
🇫🇷 definitely in my top 3 … great videos from kip guaranted and a good balance between herd cows / JD tractors and family . I like the channel and it’s spirit … and allways impressed by Us farming 🇺🇸
We used to drop a rope down from the outside and tie it on to the unloader to stop it from spinning and control where it sat at the top. Only trick was to get it untied and still where you wanted it.
Some nice green iron. I agree, they don't make things like they did anymore....Definitely worth rebuilding it, it's in real good condition. Love the way you salute/talk to the herd. Awesome drone shots💪 👍👍🍻
Haylage looks good. You probably already know this having a John Deere chopper if you switch the blower pulleys around so the blower spins faster to get the haylage to back of the box easier. When your knives are sharp and the cutter bar is set right keep the chopper full it chops it up finer. One farmer I worked for would chop hay with a 8920 case ih and I do believe it was a gehl 1065. He would be out chopping hay and if the rpm’s would drop down below like 900 on the 1000rpm readout for the pto he would drop a gear or 2 his neighbor chopped for him and just kept it full never downshifted nice chopped haylage. God bless. Have a safe harvest
Yeah, I just saw the 65E. Have you had to replace the valve cover gasket yet? I’ve got the 75E and I’ve been dragging my feet the way, I figure it it’s corrosion protection😂 Great videos, my friend
When I was a kid we had one unloader for 3 silos so when a silo went empty we had to take apart the unloader and haul it up to the top of the next silo before the next feeding. Our silage operation was a little less impressive than yours also. Dad chopped with a 1 row chopper on a 4020. We had 2 Gehl wagons that were shuttled around with a JD 60 tractor and a 3010 ran the blower.
I know it’s a different engine, but for reference we overhauled engine in 4440 and a 4650 It ended up costing $20k each. Expensive, but still worth it... that’s a nice 4430. I wouldn’t wait until it throws a rod bearing. Get it done sooner
"Ps" just bought Another farm & was in Closing "June 30th & asked my loan officer "This Question hey didn't we have too .. "Order a property Appraisal" ? He said "No" "our financial commitee .. Said No ... "Just give him the $$$ ! " "Thats Moms Love" marv'
You mentioned multiple times that you never put first new cutting from new seeding up for silage. Do your put up for hay because low protein or fear of rock/Debree? Just wondering?

Kip, great video! Really enjoy the drone footage, the barns look awesome with them all
having the black roofs and white sides. Nice clean look.
Love the smell of a working fair farm not better I was raised on a dairy farm in northern Illinois every time the wife and I go to the fair I always gotta take a walk through the dairy barn to get a little smell of home
4430 has been a great tractor for us as well!
Another informative video! You are on my top 10 farming video list! Take care and keep up the good work!

Sandwiches. Someone is taking good care of you. Blessings.
Your right about the old iron, so much more reliable than the new computer ran junk.
Thanks for the great video!
Another great video Kip. The beauty of the Michigan countryside is incredible!!
You are blessed to have had the rain this year when all around you have struggled with drought. Enjoy the bountiful growth.
Thanks for the great video! Going thru some hard times and your content helps me forget and get thru it!
Great video Kip. Glad this humidity broke this evening. Take care and be safe 👍✊
Great job team
We've had a pretty good summer here got plenty rain for sure! Thanks for sharing. Happy harvesting Kip.
We used to drop a rope down from the outside and tie it on to the unloader to stop it from spinning and control where it sat at the top. Only trick was to get it untied and still where you wanted it.

Thanks Kip and all your crew for making this great video.
Stay safe always comes first.

Lots of hay and feed!!!!!❤️🙏
Good show
Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊
When everything is happening you don't take breaks until the day is over.
Hope everything goes good getting the cement silo back in running order. That does not sound like a fun project ahead of you guys.
Great video and real)is enjoy the great drone footage kip keep the videos and drone footage coming
Love the double rake action
Yeah, I just saw the 65E. Have you had to replace the valve cover gasket yet?
I’ve got the 75E and I’ve been dragging my feet the way, I figure it it’s corrosion protection😂
Great videos, my friend
Another great video That wagon looks like new 😊
Keep the old girls going.
Enjoyed watching the video Kip😊
How big are your silos
When I was a kid we had one unloader for 3 silos so when a silo went empty we had to take apart the unloader and haul it up to the top of the next silo before the next feeding. Our silage operation was a little less impressive than yours also. Dad chopped with a 1 row chopper on a 4020. We had 2 Gehl wagons that were shuttled around with a JD 60 tractor and a 3010 ran the blower.
Have your farms thought of silage bunkers instead of all the maintenance on silos ? Stay safe this fall !!
How did you guys like that football game Kansas City and the lions in Lions playground good ball game
Did you find the noise problem with the harvester
I know it’s a different engine, but for reference we overhauled engine in 4440 and a 4650 It ended up costing $20k each. Expensive, but still worth it... that’s a nice 4430. I wouldn’t wait until it throws a rod bearing. Get it done sooner
Hay that is "too green" can spontaneously combust in a hay barn. Why does it not when put in a silo?
Gotta have 16% oxygen to support fire. Because it packs in there's no atmosphere in the product but it makes heat and cooks. My best guess.
Sir Kip may you have a video how to raised up and care calves after birth thank you
we would put a big milwalkee drill on our pulley
Going down is always worse than going up.
Why the old rake again? What happened to your beast rake?
