As a 27 year employee of John Deere I can tell you many people inside the plants follow you guys and enjoy your honest reviews of the equipment we build every day. Always looking forward to our equipment on your farm.
Big difference between a salesman and someone who actually knows their equipment and what they are talking about. This kid knows his product and takes pride in what he represents. Hope his company acknowledges his value.
I'm subscribed, and I'm not even in ag - I'm a city dwelling garage door guy. It's really cool to see this side of where my food comes from, and the Larson's are just really great people to see.
Nice to see "How a Minnesota Farm Works" I watch the Wisconsin version. Here in Utah our farms in my area are only 20-40 acres. A few larger may be about 300 acres. Use a lot of public land grazing.
One of my biggest gripe/concern of modern farming is the amount of chemical going down on our food. I also understand why we do it. This to me is the best of both worlds. Good work
That’s an awesome machine. Nick Welker did an episode on it last fall and that feature that recognizes weeds and spot sprays them at high speed is amazing.
I got to be a sprayer on the bean bar when I was around 3rd or 4th grade. All the other kids were high schoolers so I naturally got sat on an outside row. That was so much fun but such a wild ride. It was a 4 person bar and my dad shop made it. Dad mounted John deere lawn mower seats on the bar and it sat on grandpa's 1977 4420 with the quad range. I really miss the 90s!!!
Never seen or heard of a bean bar before! Here in Michigan we used to hire 10-20 people to roam the field with hoes all day. Things have come a lonnnng way
this is really cool technology,, Welkers has some night video of their see and spray machine,, really cool to watch and a big plus for the environment and the farmer,, well done Chet and Dougo 👍🚜👍
Welkers have a completely different system than what deere is running. I think the system they have is better at least when it comes to wiring and computers lol.
Yes welkers run a 'weedit' system on there boom. We've had it here in Western Australia for a couple of years now, mostly for summer weeds, but not unlimited. It's another cost saving game changer.👍👍
I actually worked on these products through blue river. It’s some cool technology cool I can say I played a role in testing and getting these machines to work!
Congrats on the 400K subs. Justifiably the most entertaining channel on the tube. I'm biased but I don't care who knows it. I love the whole crew. They are like a breath of fresh air to someone like me who is flat bound on the 1st floor (UK) of a block of flats in the middle of a fairly large town in Southern England. I really look forward to what is to come with the newer tech, and how Dougo copes with it! Poor guy. LOL. Thanks for the vision of the future for sprayers, looks a lot better than I used to work on in the 80's.
It is nice that the manufacture’s let you guys do this. We have a dealer in the next town over, Purdue Saskatchewan called Full Line Ag. that has a Ride and Drive that lets local producers drive an assortment of different equiptment. I can not imagine going to a car dealership and saying I am not really here to buy anything right now but I would like to test drive every new model on your lot please. 😂
I never rode the Bean bar however when I was in highschool I worked for a Christmas tree farm. We would walk down the rows of trees and spray a green chemical on the trees that helped hold the needles on and helped make them less likely to catch fire. Of course we sprayed each other. We would be green from head to toe.
G R kirk sells most of that. They had the largest Christmas tree farm in the world tell they switched to just products. My town was the Christmas tree capital of the world tell the 2 companies stopped selling trees. Lots of my friends sprayed trees. I just sheared trees. That was enough for me.
@@cw93711 I trimmed the trees and baled them as well. Here in Midwest And Northern Minnesota the Government let farmers put land into soil bank by planting Pine trees. There are thousands of acres of trees. They can then harvest the trees when they get to the right size. I'm not completely sure how it worked but I do know they never harvested every tree. Some grew pretty big.
Put this on your Christmas wish list Chet! Dougo can work out the details with Santa to get this wrapped. Fantastic piece of equipment. And welcome to the great state of TX.
You two are the best hands down. Interesting to profile the latest technology in management control across the board. You should DEMO one of those this year and put Eric to the test......🤣
Welker’s got a see & spray bar. Saved a lot of chemical, every little bit helps these days. Was really cool to watch! It’s demo/test played Star Wars w/ nozzles & lights. The spray was much easier to see at night bc of colored lights.
YAY! Finally hit 400,000! Appreciate your videos, Chet. They are always informative and usually entertaining! I walked many bean fields with a machete & soaking wet jeans from the dew. Great advancements and chemical savings.
Thanks for another great video. It was most definitely interesting. Wow. This see and spray technology is sweet. Hagie has for years made good products and now hooking that to John Deere is a win win situation. Glad you had the opportunity to test these new John Deere products. This sprayer is nice nice piece of equipment. Wow. Beautiful cab mounted on the sprayer. Great. Thanks to Chet and Dougo and the Deere team for showing us this new sprayer. Great. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
Bean bar? Hell we never had bean bars we had tennis shoes,corn knives and bean hooks and soaked and wet jeans in the dewy mornings.i can actually say I walked a few hundred miles of bean fields in my younger days
Tennis shoes and corn knives? We walked barefoot with a makeshift butter knife in our skivies so as not to get our jeans dirty. 😂 jk of course. And thanks for chipping in with your comment… farming has such a rich, rough and ready history.
The Welker boys have the individual weed spray system with the cameras , an enormous saving in chemicals running at 10-12 mph at 120 ft They are very pleased with it .
I carried a 3 gallon sprayer many miles after roundup came out spraying Johnson grass in cotton in the Mississippi Delta. Technology has come a long way. God bless
My next door neighbour farmer here in the uk designed the pressure recirculating system then licences it to John Deere it’s called maximiser pro over here
Welcome to TX! I live only 45 miles northwest of Austin. Technology has certainly come a long way since I worked on the farm as a teenager back in the 60's.😉 I really enjoy your channel & look forward to each video.❤
If you want more info on the see and spray or as I call it "the high-tech spot sprayer" contact the Welker Farms in Montana they have been using it for a year or 2
Welker Farms bought all the parts and basically built this same system on their existing sprayer. Can't say it has all the same bells and whistles, but it's real close.
Chet, Dougo!! So funny you said about getting a motorcycle underneath the sprayer! I’m a custom applicator from PA, in 2017 in my new John Deere R4038 I had a crotch rocket driver underneath me. I heard him coming but couldn’t see him, I finally saw him when he came shooting out from under my feet! I then sadly watched the idiot wreck his bike into an alfalfa field and he got up and flicked me the bird like somehow it was my fault. 🤦♂️🤣🤣. Love the videos be safe God Bless!
There must be a huge saving in chemicals which is good for the environment & coincidentally a massive saving in costs which is great for profitability, yay!
I bet Erik is jumping up and down with anticipation. Next will come the hints of how great it would be. And finally the outright begging.. Good luck Erik.
@delbutler885 I was talking about the technology and efficiency of the sprayer, the lights, I know it won't fit Larson Farm . Completely different farming.
Awesome video Chet. DougO' had better stick to driving the side-by-side, he'd get light headed driving something that sits that high 🤣🤣. Now get back to Minnesota so you can start farming again and post more videos 🙃. 🚜🚜🚜
Yes Doug a great sprayer but a lot to go wrong . Unbelievable were agriculture has gone in 45 years. For the day I worked on a big farm , late 70s - early 80s. All green for the most part.
As a 27 year employee of John Deere I can tell you many people inside the plants follow you guys and enjoy your honest reviews of the equipment we build every day. Always looking forward to our equipment on your farm.
Do y’all follow Mike Mitchell? He is about as honest as they come. I really enjoy his videos.
Agree

Well, that's how GOOD salesmen do their job.
400000 subscribers. Congratulations Larson Farms.
Agreed! Congratulations Chet!
I'm subscribed, and I'm not even in ag - I'm a city dwelling garage door guy. It's really cool to see this side of where my food comes from, and the Larson's are just really great people to see.
Should be 1 million. This is the best farm channel
Nice to see "How a Minnesota Farm Works" I watch the Wisconsin version.
Here in Utah our farms in my area are only 20-40 acres. A few larger may be about 300 acres.
Use a lot of public land grazing.
Only four hundred thousand subscribers, should be at least one million!

Always ❤Love❤️when Dougo is on the videos !!! They need to make a spray for rocks 🤣🤣🤣 Great video as always
Tim is a great spokesperson for their product, impressive delivery!
I add my congratulations to Larson Farms on reaching 400 K subscribers. Doug and Amy also add a lot to the channel as well as the other workers.

John Deere didn't make 4420 tractor
@@briancolshan1613 They did make a 4420 row crop tractor for South America. 4420s were built from 1970-75 in Argentina.

Magin The Swed sitting in one of those seats with a brush. Now that’s funny. Thanks Guys
The great thing is it saves money and is better for the environment
Just amazing! Wish my dad was still here to see this! Thanks for your channel!!!!!♥♥♥ Love you all!!!
I actually worked on these products through blue river. It’s some cool technology cool I can say I played a role in testing and getting these machines to work!
I remember the bean bar but before it we walked a lot of beans with a corn knife

I spent a lot of summers on a bean bar, spraying RoundUp on volunteer corn in our soybean seed production fields.
I see new toy commin to larson farms this spring 😊😉

Take a look at Welker's last fall. They have a system similar on Big Brute. They have some awesome footage of it at work.
I know you're already gone...but Welcome to Texas. Glad you got to come to some warm weather.
Well guys..time to celebrate. You hit 400k. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Chet Dougo great explanations thank you that thing sure is wide thank you John Deere for having us
Your videos never fail to entertain and inform. Appreciate every one of them.
Bean bar! My first job. Then my dad made his own with a 3 gallon sprayer strapped to two seats. 6 rows at a time.
YAY! Finally hit 400,000! Appreciate your videos, Chet. They are always informative and usually entertaining!
I walked many bean fields with a machete & soaking wet jeans from the dew. Great advancements and chemical savings.
120 foot boom sprayer....wow. Impressive, thanks Chet and Mr. L.
Both of their pull behinds are 120 feet
Sincerity and humility make your channel a true gem. Keep shining.
Custom app for 20 yrs and the motorcycle under the sprayer happened 2 times. That will make your heart rate rise instantly!
Very very impressive equipment being offered. Thank you for sharing.
Wow thats way nicer than a Hahn Hi-Boy spraying tabacco as a kid great job guys thanks for the tour
Congrats on the 400K subscribers!!! You guys are my favorite farm channel!!!
Welcome to central Texas. We usually have dusty fields and low yields where y'all have mud and 250 bushel corn.
Thanks for another great video.
It was most definitely interesting.
Wow. This see and spray technology is sweet. Hagie has for years made good products and now hooking that to John Deere is a win win situation.

Welcome to texas boys it's nothing like up north😊
This John Deere reps know their stuff. Impressed!

As kids we did this, but it was to chop the volunteer corn in our bean field that was corn the year before.
My company makes parts for the See and Spray system. This is cool to see on the machine.
The Welker boys have the individual weed spray system with the cameras , an enormous saving in chemicals running at 10-12 mph at 120 ft

Magnifique démontarson du pluvieux automoteur est bien intéressante 😂😮😅😊
WELKER farms put on one last year on there big bud (BRUTE) and just love it saving lots on money.
Massage seat and heated. Wow. Freezer. Oh my. I thought a heated or cooled cab was a huge improvement. Front boom is great.
When I farmed we only had 1 tractor with a cab. It was an oven in midsummer.
Dougo and Chet, Wow is all I can say. Thanks for sharing!
I still remember the Fast sprayers with the pull behind tanks and the stripes of weeds that didn't die in the wheel tracks.

Chemical have never hurt the environment
@@Adam-x4bRemember when DDT was the preferred insecticide?
The savings will pay for the lease on this expensive piece of technology
@user-br9bq9vu2d but with out them our crop yield would be much lower
Welcome to Texas Y'all.
That was a sweet setup thanks for taking us along bless y’all be safe
I bet Erik is jumping up and down with anticipation. Next will come the hints of how great it would be. And finally the outright begging.. Good luck Erik.
Chet, you need to go and visit Welker's and see their customer built Big Brute Sprayer.
Welkers Big Brute would be absolutely worthless for Larson Farms. Big brute is used for spraying fallow ground.
@delbutler885 I was talking about the technology and efficiency of the sprayer, the lights, I know it won't fit Larson Farm . Completely different farming.
I rode the upgraded bean bar a John Deere 6000 hiboy. Things have come a long way since then.
Great educational video. Love to see the new tech. Greetings from Dundalk, Ireland
Congratulations on 400,000
Welcome to Texas glad yall got to see us LOL.
Welkers have the spot spray on the Brute. Seems to be a nice system.
I can see the new 9rx830 in the background. Looks like you had the royal tour of all the new John Deere release.
Great one, Chet. Dougo, you don't need no stinkin' mirror, you lookin good from any angle
Doug could order the Alexa or Seri model. Voice commands are universal.
Kibble better really sharpen their pencil.
The season is coming real soon. 😃
I did the Bean bar by Kandiyohi, MN, I even helped build it.
Awesome, seeing John deer with you guys good video.
Deere is sure trusting there Chet. Hope you had a good visit here in TX. You can take some of these Calf transplants back with you. LOL
Welcome to Texas y’all! Glad Larson Farms made the trip. Awesome videos boys. Keep up the great work!
My dad is there for work(at the Houston Texas)
Laura farms has a miller front mount sprayer also.
Very nice sprayer! I tried to catch every glimpse of the big 9RX pulling the big air seeder in the background! Lololol
Ag with Emma was with Deere there also. Driving the 9RX 830
They do make a spray for rocks and you have most of the ingredients, Ammonium Nitrate, and some Diesel. Just need an initiator 😇
Smart guys at Deere. 💪👍🏼
Big Swede is correct. Setting #2 on the seat is best!
Technology today is amazing
Congrats on 400k. Now onto 500k
Glad to see they got rid of the NORAC and went to deeres boom track. Besides the auto steer issues I’ve had, that was the next problem on the list!
congratulations on 400K to all you !
We'll see one on the farm next year because Dougo likes it. That's a done deal.
4$ corn
Definitely future.
That is wild. I see Larson Farms using this next year
Welcome to Texas
Pretty flipping cool….
Long gone r the days we started with 30ft boom and thought it was a big sprayer.
Awesome video Chet. DougO' had better stick to driving the side-by-side, he'd get light headed driving something that sits that high 🤣🤣. Now get back to Minnesota so you can start farming again and post more videos 🙃. 🚜🚜🚜
Pretty amazing rig!,
Yes Doug a great sprayer but a lot to go wrong . Unbelievable were agriculture has gone in 45 years. For the day I worked on a big farm , late 70s - early 80s. All green for the most part.
