- This past week we chopped oats for silage. Watch as we swath the oats with the Kubota DMC 8540R, chop them with a forage harvester, haul them back to the farm, and push and pack them in the bunker.

Welcome to Peterson Family Farm. On this TH-cam channel, we plan to show viewers what happens on a real life family farm in Kansas. From working with animals, to planting seeds, to harvesting grain, to putting up hay, to fixing equipment, you'll get to see what farming is like! Our farm is a 5th generation farm started in 1882 by our great great grandparents. We grow wheat, corn, soybeans, milo, sunflowers, and forages and we feed about 1,000 head of cattle. To learn more about it, watch our channel intro video here: • Welcome to Our New You...
Hi from the Tully farm in Manhattan Kansas.
Looks awesome! That field of oats is such a blessing!! Thinking of you and all the rest of the wheat farmers and praying for abundant yields and good prices! Thank you for all you do!
No luck. Corn and soybean farmers are high on the hog, as usual. Wheats been $5 or less for 25 years. That's not an accident.
Love it ❤and the video ❤ and I like how all of y'all works together ❤👌 family and friends ❤💙 come together that's a beautiful blessing 🙌❤💖 thank y'all all for beautiful food ❤and beautiful music 🎶🎵 and ❤beautiful videos ❤💜⚘🍦⚘💚❤
Brings back great memories !! Great video, keep the videos coming
What an awesome opportunity to get that field to do the oat crop. And I love how the whole family works together. Wish I had that here! Keep it up!
Good one, Interesting! Am sharing this on MeWe this coming Sunday!
So cool with the drone video! Love it!
Wow, awesome drone video, beautiful fields! Great video, loved it❣️
Wow! Amazing cutter and video!
what a great opportunity to farm good land and the crop looks great!
Beautiful crop, great job Team 👏
Hope y’all have a great day
it was great seeing that, awesome video
Awesome Video!!
GORGEOUS!!! !!! !!!
Beautiful !
Awesome oat crop!
awesome crop!!
I really enjoy watching your videos. If I could do it all over again I might have started farming at a young age. One suggestion for a video sometime would be to explain what some of the machines do and how they work.
Cool thanks 😊
Sometimes I miss working with a silage chopping crew! The oats looked awesome!
good video man good job keep up the good work ethic
you guys do a good job. we never chopped oats we swath and bale it
I remember one year we had 125 bushel/acre oats. There was new seeding grass/alfalfa under it to that also did well
Makes great silage feed
1st time watching this. Soo very interesting. Thank you for ALL as a family do.
The video with the drone give us as viewers a nice overview from your activities.
Busy busy... You all know how to work!
That is some extremely tall oats. It looks like the heads look full as well, I bet the yield would be great if you were going to harvest the oats.
wow that is one pretty oats field
I remember watching Zack’s story hope he is still doing great 👍 it’s a small world even on here 😁
That oat field looks as clean as can be!
Nice video
Wow that’s one incredible oat field! It’s bone dry here in WA and the oats aren’t even 12in and already heading out.
New subscriber. Man those are some beautiful oats!
Had 6 foot tall triticale for spring harvest this year.
looks like soil health really helped plus the rain
I always looked forward to hayin season, nothing like the smell of fresh cut hay. Wish I was their.
That's where we need smell-a-vision!
Nice
good
must be fun such a large fields here in Belgium it is a bit smaller. No nuisance from local residents. when we were chopping grass until two o'clock in the morning. the police came to stop us. a local resident had complained about the noise 🤦😂
oats loves cool wheather and a lot of moisture!
did you hear from winteroats?
it growes up to -12°C and gives between 7 and 8to yield with 15% moisture per ha.
That is pretty from the sky
Holy smokes nice crop,we’re in a drought in sw Saskatchewan If my oats were half as good as that I’d be happy.
Wow! What a crop of oats, how many inches of rain do u think the oats crop got while growing to the silage stage?
Wow ok. 👍👍👍
That's awesome that you know zach short He is very inspirational. The fact that he went through what he did and lived to tell the tail proves that there is a higher power . Those oats are going to make great feed for your cattle. That kubota mower is nice . We have one similar to yours and we really like how well it performs. Great video keep up the good work and stay safe!
Really cool that you have so many classmates as neighbors in Agriculture. Do you all have all your feed stuffs tested or just go by an average to mix your rations?
looks like a lot of bunk to me. 😍
The farm I work for here in New Mexico we chopped 4 foot tall wheat for silage
Hi guys what are you pulling on the back of your harvester and it's purpose love your content from Ireland
Happy days when the oats are that high .
Fellas you’re the first bunch I’ve seen using a kubota disc mower on a cereal crop for silage. Is yours a rubber roller style crimper, or flail type? How did it perform? Any comments on it? I’m thinkin of getting one myself. Great vids guys
Enjoy it while it lasts because before you know it it'll be cold again in the midwest is the reason why left I got tired of it and move someplace warmer.
awesome & fantastic Oat harvesting , chopping & silage # but U have kept silage open air in bunker & did not cover it with plastic sheet which does not allow anaerobic fermentation of silage # yes corn , wheat , sorghum provide highest energy to cattle #
If that were my silage. I would keep the packing tractor going non stop and get the silage covered immediately. Be careful with green silage. Gras Green silage makes green b grade beef.
I wondered about parking. I saw them pushing but wasn’t sure about the packing part.
Is that the smoky hill river or the saline river in the drone footage at the beginning. The rain we got this spring in Central Kansas did crops great this year. Looking forward to record breaking bushels if things stay good. Love the videos 📹
That is the Smoky Hill.
Do you have to cover that oat silage to prevent spoilage? A lot of dry places in Canada and the states, you are fortunate to have the moisture.
Yeah need a bit of help by the sounds of things..but yous are doing good 👍
We miss Laura. Tell her, we, fans miss her.
Koooooooooool
Awesome looking oat stand! Hello from Ontario..Canada..! How does the nutritional value compare to hay or corn silage?
Healthy looking crop. Do you get much build up of materials under the truck when the Horton fan cuts in?
Wouldn't soil silo pits suck humidity from the soli edges? Just wondering
Hello from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺...new to your channel
I was thinking it looked like a natural place for rain to flow down too.
My "city boy" question is why the crop doesn't ferment or spoil from humidity? If I create a pile of grass, it basically rots in a few days. Is it packed so tight that air can't get to it? Much respect to those that feed us but soooo many questions.
The music in this video has the same guitar riff as Ac/Dc's thunderstruck.
It would be pretty cool a girl driving the 5830.
What variety are those oats? Mine is only knee high and sta starting to head out. Made a lot of hay the last week and it has rained 5 inches here in the last 12 hours and going to rain for the next 3 days. My oats are going to look like straw when I get to them.
Would it be safe to say the oats may have yielded 150 bushels per acre as a grain crop?? Oats makes great silage though. We used to chop some oats when short on feed in the early summer.
Question: storing the silage outside doesn't go BAD when it rains on it?
What variety did you plant..we had forage oats years ago..that yours resembled?,…thanks
Did you guys ever think of pouring concrete walls for your silage pits
I suspect When dollars allow. I think They are trying to feed? Four Families.?
Does the tractor which chops the haylage have innoculants mixed in automatically?
i think that is best oats ive seen where in ks are you
Rolled oats
Is there much spoilage when you stack silage that high?
How wide is your mower
Whats the protein level in this silage?
How do you keep the dirt out of the silage? Are you dumping straight on the dirt?
No it’s a concrete floor just dirt sides
Man those oats look great! How’s the wheat?
Probably just as good, with the rain falling west of the Mississippi. The western part of the country is drowning, as usual. These guys have no idea how easy it is.
What kind of oats
How about these markers? Got ulcers yet?
Not itchy at all I'm sure
What drone are you using?
As a sheep guy I just get to look forward to hay BUYING season... shoving tons of hay down their gut all Winter long. I wonder if they ate $20.00 bills if it would be cheaper? The right kind of digestion would be if they just pooped gold out to pay for their food bill! (But we have this contract that balances things...I sell their children for food!)
As a shepard you have the best prices out there compared to beef and swine. And you might want to look into silage and brewers grain to help cut your hay bill down.
What drone do you use
For me as european is the silo a nightmare.
Me too 🤢
what is the advantage of having dirt barriers over concrete
Cheaper that’s about it
Should never stratle a windrow like that with a truck great way to take seals out of rerends. Love the videos and drone work
How so? That truck is so heavy it just squashes whatever is underneath flat.
Organized chaos
How many ft wide is the discbine?
13 ft
What county are you in? We are in the Arkansas.river bottom.
Can’t you pull up concrete bunker silos.
Why don't ye have concrete silage clamps.
What is Milo?
I never seen oats that tall mind me asking how did you guys get them that tall?
Rain
:)
John deere to kubota lol
Hate to say this but thats not swathing that a discbine mower swathers look a lot different but kinda the same just haybine and discbine do something a little different, Discbines and haybines hav crimpers swathers header dont unless theyre for cut hay but you guys probley know more bout agriculture than I do used to live on a farm until I got cancer and and had to downsize our farm cause we need the $$$$$ but I like a lot of your guys songs and videos
I see you push
Silage but do you pack it or not?l
Yes he was packing in the video at one point!
@@petersonfamilyfarm1778
I guess We pack differently along with other people now as well. Most people have dualsOn and are constantly packing. Sorry. I know you were limited on manpower as well. Thank you for responding. Hang in there guys
@@paulprigge1209 Yes we were limited on manpower but we were packing between every load, just didn't have the duals on. In the fall we always have the duals on and have a little better set up.
Instead of playing music you just have the sounds of the machine
do I sense 'green envy'? Perhaps it's time to retire your chopper and invest in a bigger machine?
