Mike, you are once again, truly outstanding in your field! (That one never gets old :)) Thanks for sharing what you know and hang in there!
I sure appreciate your knowledge. I have learned more about farming from you than any other source. I wish you - and all the other farmers - a fantastic and trouble free harvest.
Every year I buy a thousand ladybugs let them go in June in my garden. By the end of the season theirs 10 of thousands it's amazing.
Swathed lentils for years. MacDon’s do an awesome job cutting on the ground but nothing beats straight cutting.
Nice looking crops at your north farm Mike
Didn't expect to catch up your newly posted vlog mike,my first time,been watching your vlogs for 3yrs
Only tires i buy are Michelin LTX m&s rated from Costco. Excellence in tires after 6 sets, so for. Interesting info!
On the other side of the globe we have rain almost every day...I would send there some if I could
oo yeah in Europe there has been a really wet summer
@@lukastaric2720yep now when harvest start, but before it was dry
@@cospar9486 i am from Slovenia and this year our region has been extremely lucky because we have had just little hail a rain where other region have had massive floods and large hail
Great video Mike
Love the crop tours!
Mike, I don't think anyone has ever said "dictate otherwise" more than you did near the end there
"Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." - Mike Tyson
Nice crops all things considering. This north operation has been a good diversification for the overall operation. Personally I would still want at least one more solid rain even it is at harvest time to reduce the fire risk.
Mike's thanks for crop tours . Interesting
Magnifique champ de blé et de voir plus 😮😊
You can gurentee you get an inch of rain a week after the wheat matured
Use the sprayer to spray some ladybugs onto your field !
Mike, if you were to host a National Geographic or a animal planet show. It would probably be the Xgames of nature shows! No offense! It just paints a good picture of a nature show that would be both werry funny, educational and it would have been fun in 15 minutes!😂👌
Love your stuff, keep on keeping on!💪💪
Waww se jeant fontastic good working thank you very much 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌💪💪💪💪💪💪
Yep lady bugs eat aphids. Learned that off the trailer park boys trying to save the weed plants. 😂😂
Everywhere I try to farm ends up drying out too. Lol. Fs
Mike struggling to zoom in and find the ladybug is the story of my life trying to find a Girlfriend. 😂
Buy a dog….. you will never have a more faithful companion the rest of your life!

haha 😂
Seems like the north farm is saving your hide. Would you consider farming less at south farm and farm in between North and South to diversify the operation. How long has your family been farming? It will be cool to hear the family history
We call them ladybirds 🐞 in the uk 🇬🇧 😂
at the ag in motion this year case had a swather with a new honeybee swath header
Mike, I had to get tires on my truck, and it only has 51000. They just don't make stuff like they use too.
Sounds as though 🐞 Ladybirds 🐞 are a farmers friend eating 30-40 aphids per day, personally I find 20 aphids is a great amount in a sandwich!
1 aphid would be too many in a sandwich.🤣
Factory tires are commonly known to be of lower quality. I had one brother in law that got less than 20,000 Kms from original set. I personally like to trade the original tires in when new to a tire shop & get a brand new set of tires rated for at least 100,000 kms or more so I have some sort of “Wear Warranty “
My factory continentals are going strong at 210,000km. They need to be filled up with air every now and then but other than that no issues. I'll have to replace because I'm running out of treads Though i've ran them almost exclusively on asphalt
Mike, would you lose much crop if you attempted to plow those water channels while it is dry?
It looks like Thistles are worse than normal across many parts of North America this year
Thanks Mike. You are such a professional and it's nice you show us a bit of your family life. I watch you and Andy Hourigan. Is there any way you could start irrigating (a part) of your fields because I think there are more droughts to come
good afternoon, I'm late.
What variety of wheat is that?
Mike,you should go organic😂😊
Hi Michael, How do you manage to complete, financially with American farmers producing 3 plus tons per acre, with the same imputes, against your 1 to maybe 2 tons. All the Best
You don't, but consider land prices are alot lower and the inputs are no where near the same,
To achieve 3t requires alot more fert
His margins are just alot thinner
Frankly from an Aussie point of veiw I can't under stand how Americans keep saying they can't make money farming when nearly every farm in aus is profitable and were farming very similar to Mike
Why not spray now than later
i had heads 5 wide, 100 kernels at some head counted obv not average prob more like 65:) gotta love european cold summers. nice looking field though.
You did burnouts with the truck?😅
See welders have a sprayer that targets individual plants / weeds, wonder would that work for thistle,
Welders weld not spray
@@kenhofer8063 ha. Yea. Meant walkers farm, Thanks
That only works on summer fallow
@@Northern_Farmer their last video shows them spraying on a crop,
The last time I heard the word “dictate” this often I was vacationing in North Korea.
Have you ever just trimmed the heads off the wheat then cut and baled the straw?
You can set the combine to drop the straw out in windrows rather than thresh the straw
Lots of people do it but you have to have a market for it or it's an expensive exercise
It also takes the organic matter off the field and will degrade future crops in the dry conditions you have to weight up if it's worth the loss of OM for the straw payment
The more you zoom the higher the sound level on the mic goes up.
Hi Mike, has the war in Ukraine 🇺🇦 had any affect on crop prices?
It seems to be one of the reasons fertiliser costs have skyrocketed & just about all food in European supermarkets have increased dramatically, is the same happening in Canada 🍁 too?
Crops are sold in a world market so yes it has affected prices. As for fertilizer the major producer here cut production due to lower prices/demand even during this war. Only recently they ramped it back up.
Ukraine war is a 100% money laundering by the u.s and Canadian governments
@@kenhofer8063 Yup.. and the poor folks of Ukraine are the ones who will ultimately pay the price unfortunately.

Mike, why do’nt you sell the straw, too a dairy farmer, its expensive this year i have heard
why cant to release ladybugs ?
👋😊
Russian thistle = tumbleweed
Went on a crop tour last week, and those tall scralgers in the wheat is part of the gentic process we werd told
Its is the vsriety you planted, but when they breed the genetics you slways add something beneficial and something non beneficial and that is one of non beneficial that dneaks through the process.
Mike ants farm aphids, they actually use the aphid poo as a protien pellat…Atleast when ever I see aphids thats the culprit…Dust the floors with boric acid and the ants eat it and die…Your in a feild I get it, but just another view point to indoor management
