Hilling & Planting potatoes in the 100 acre field. Shane gets some time on camera and captures some nice drone footage. Dave & Ray teach me how to fill the potato planter.
The drone footage helps give scope to your operation. You have put together a very informative and entertaining channel and all the hard work that goes into potato farming. Thanks for everyone putting in all the hard work!
From Australia. Shane's drone videos certainly makes you appreciate the size of your operation and the amount of potatoes waiting to grow, be harvested and sold.
Thank you! This on most of the potato crops. It we have about 40 more acres of potatoes. We will have to get more drone footage for some upcoming videos!
Honestly, i never really thought about things like this. Im'a city guy, but LOVE anything potatoes! Hats off to Molly bcuz her vids are interesting and very well done. These are hard working folks...
Best planting vlog so far! It’s always amazing to see the intricacies of growing crops for produce and Molly does a great job of explaining the process. Congratulations on your solo seed loading the planter!😁 And thanks Shane for taking a crack at the camera, always enjoy your input. 🧐
Hallo Molly, Hey Shaun, This is,, Rosty,, from cental Germany, just found your farming Chanel, I was a potato farmer too, now retired. And we also use,, the grimme machinery,, for seeding and harvest potato's.... Best world leading producer of field maschiens Like the farm dog, walking beside the tractor long way through the field.... So adorebal girl... Hi five Rosty
Wow that aerial drone footage shows just how massive an operation you have like I said before that’s a lot of tators 🤣 and yea keep them videos coming and also in order🤣 later girl.❤️😎🇺🇸
I truly enjoy watching these videos. I am learning a lot about farming. I was always well aware of how farming works due to living in upstate NY dairy and corn area, but the nuts and bolts are really interesting. It's amazing how many young folks today don't understand how much work goes into producing our food. Excellent job to you and Shane! 👍👍
Really enjoying seeing potato planting in 2024! I grew up on a small mixed farm on P.E.I in Canada. My family were farmers/fishers. We had about 200 acres of shorefront land, mostly wooded with about 60 acres clear. We grew grain, hay and potatoes. We had about 10 cattle, a few pigs and chickens. Back then 20 acres was a big field for us. The potato sets were cut by hand and planted by hand and then hilled by a one or two row hillier Our family did have a mechanical planter that planted the sets and hilled them one row at a time. The planter had been horse drawn but was converted to be towed behind our Ford 8N tractor. When harvest time came we used a beater digger to scatter the potatoes and then small crews came along on our knees and picked the potatoes into bushel baskets(made by local Indigenous people). The baskets were emptied into burlap bags to be picked up by trailer or our half ton truck. The potatoes were then hauled to our house to be stored in our clay basement to be graded ,bagged and shipped later. Maybe picking potatoes on my knees explains my bad knees today! Wishing you a good growing season!
Thank you so much for sharing this story, we have a field right behind our house that is 27 acres, so I can imagine how much work that must have been! I love the life you used to life! Sounds wonderful to me. Thank you so much for watching!
Molly and Shane, you are doing a great job letting people know what it takes to produce the bag of potatoes they buy in the grocery. Thank you. And Happy Mother’s Day, Molly, Bessie’s mom. 😊
We don’t get Maine potatoes in N WI. Idahos. Love taters. Threw out bacon and eggs some time ago. I fix about 7 oz of potato, fried and run through a 1/4: chopper or in the microwave and fry some catfish. I plant a few potatoes, maybe 100. That’s not enough. I love your farm vids. You are pretty wonderful now with it all. Thank you.
Molly thank you so much for wanting to go through all the trouble to make these videos for us. Please just let the burden be a light one, you and Shane are doing such a great job on them. I loved the drone footage…well done! Before today I didn’t realize how massive the fields are, and along with the real time footage how long and arduous a task it is to steward the ground and it be so plentiful. Man…farming is hard work! Again please take your time on the videos, farming is hard enough a task. Till next time friend. PS ya gotta love Bessy following along with the tractor what a sweet sweet pup!
Thank you Molly Shane and crew 👍 loved the drone footage,dear "bessie" checking the job is done perfectly 😃 thanks for taking the time to share all this with us,your videos keep getting better 😊 UK 🇬🇧
Great video molly..and that ground is just awesome..you guys are so lucky to have ground like that! And no stones to pick..wow..the conveyor I used to run a conveyor that you had to push around by hand..thanks for the plug btw!
Shane got some great drone footage! Bessie definitely puts some miles on following Shane around! 😆What a fun video to watch, hope you guys have a great weekend!
Thanks for sharing another awesome video, I have to admit I didn’t really realize how labor intensive potato planting is but you all make it look so easy. The drone footage is amazing and helps us to see your operation from a different perspective.
It does look really neat! The colors are showing the wetter spots (dark) and the different types of soil are different colors too. Nothing beats the striping of the fresh hills though!
Four hard working people to provide us with excellent potatoes.,the footage with the drone is an absolute sky ride . The Bells who have passed must be amazed seeing the perfect fields from above…!!!
This video took me back in time. When Shane opened that control panel, my heart skipped a beat. Used to build similar equipment for the Army and installed them on ammunition furnaces. And the welder took me back to when I was a diesel generator mechanic. Always watch for your videos. Thanks for the hard work that you folks do to feed the rest of us.
Great video Molly Good to see Shane getting more involved in your videos. Your the only only that answers back thank you for that. The dron shots show the size of the fields. Good job both of you.
Thank you! The drone is awesome! This is the first time we are getting to see our fields from above! It supper cool! I might be a little late sometimes answering comments, but you guys make this all worth it! You’re very welcome!
I will have a new appreciation for every bag of potatoes I buy from now on. I would never have thought so much work goes into growing potatoes. Thank you!
Drove by a farm this weekend where they are tiling the field. Thought of you guys. Love the aerial work, gives better perspective of how big the operation is
Hey Molly and Shane; I just wanted to say I enjoy y’all’s videos, but this one here was really high-end !!! Having a camera for Shane and the drone footage combined with your smile makes for some great footage/content. Great job, keep em coming !!!!
Thank you very much! We gotta get Shane on board with caring his own camera. He really is the start of the channel! All the things he does all The time.
The thing my professors taught me was when working with electricity, learn to expect it then it won’t be a shock 😳. Nice drone footage. Thanks for sharing.
Another great video Molly,thanks for showing us planting. Great to see some drone shots,so we can take in the whole farm,thanks Shane for sharing your operation,very interesting,people need to see and know all it takes for farmers. Really appreciate you.
Great video Molly. I love the name of the hiller Shane was using “Spudnick”. I get a kick out of Betsy following the tractor. Such a good dog Very informative today
Never thought much about how potatoes are grown but I sure know a lot more now since finding your channel Molly. Good job at explaining things!. Shane's dog (and yours) sure gets her exercise in keeping track of you guys. Keep up the good work. Over 20K subs enjoy watching you guys now. Good stuff.
Really cool drone footage, adds a whole other dimension to the video. The different camera vantage points when Shane was on the 7700 were interesting, too. It's amazing to see how much work, knowledge, technology and sweat equity is needed to make a large produce farm a success. Another fine episode of Bell Farms! Looking forward to next one. Cheers.
Very, Very, Very interesting! Thanks for the detailed information. Growing potatoes isn't just about throwing a spud into the ground, water and wait! Thanks!
I think that the drone shots are wonderful. They show better just how big a hundred acre field really is. All the mechanized equipment is so much more that there was 60-70 years ago when I lived in a big farming area. All that equipment is amazing when you figure two-hundred years ago, farmers were using plows with wooden or cast iron moldboards. Ten years after that is when John Deere came out with the steel moldboards. A huge improvement. I’m 77, so the advancements in farming are amazing in my life time. Industrialized now.
It really is amazing! Raymond is 69 or 70 now, and he has farmed through so many different eras. The farming advancements made while he has been farming is amazing, he also has adapted very well to using the new technology in the planter!
It is amazing. I have a friend who has an old iron husked. One ear at a time. I remember when some people will still using. My friend has his grandfather’s barn, well over a hundred years old. I saw that husker there on the floor. The first one since I was a kid in PA.
I am glad to see you folks were able to plant this week. We have been stuck in a wet spell for two weeks here in ND. Friday we finely got the beet planter an air seeder going again. I enjoy your videos learning about potatoes farming.
Great job Molly and Shane, it’s nice to see the combined efforts. Great drone footage. Bessie has done a few miles today. Seed certification is about declaring the plants true to variety and freedom from certain diseases, or it is where I come from, from a former seedy agronomist. I don’t think many people understand that most videos need an hour of editing per minute. Videos are a lot of work, so thanks for your hard work.
Thank you very much! I try my best to explain things to the viewers about the ins and out of farming. I should have talked a little about the diseases. I’m learning all of this too. Thank you very much for watching the videos! If you have any tidbits of information I should share let me know! And you are correct about the editing… it does take a lot of time. This past video took me like 6-7 hrs. Some are a lot quicker than others. This one was a lot of work.
Great video. We grow 81,000 acres of spuds in Manitoba Canada and I have never been in a field to see them planted so your videos are very interesting. Lots of grain, canola, corn here also as we are a Prairie province.
@@BellsFarming I did not know we had that much either until I checked Google as usually we think of Prince Edward Island for potatoes. All depends on what pays most per acre I imagine. Canola or spuds.
You are killing it with the rows , perfection . I always struggled getting straight rows . I also had one TL circle , I pumped my water and drove the hyd pump with a diesel engine . That was in the day of 1.00 $$ diesel . Yes seed production would be a problem for you , thankfully you probably have good seed production in the state to draw from . That was some flood , is that a regular event ? One year I experienced a flood at one of my cellars , I had a foot of water inside . It went away pretty quick and I spent the rest of the winter wondering what ill effects I would have . Shipped out that spring and everything was fine ... Keep up the great work
I guess that Molly is relatively new to the farm operation as I hear her say often that Molly has not learned this part of the operation but will learn ! Great for Molly and the team at Bell farm
Very fascinating video. I've never seen potatoes planted before. The planter is the most interesting thing about the video. It plants, fertilizes, and makes the hills all in one pass. Very cool! I thought the pivot was fascinating, too. I was wondering if you ever have to move it, how it would be moved without damaging the hills or potato crops. I hope this is not a silly question. I find all your videos and farming practices fascinating. Thank you very much for sharing. 😊
Well as long as you stay in the rows you can move it alright. But you don’t back up with it when you are in the field. Drive forward to the end of the headland then turn around.
I didn't realize just how huge the fields are that your planting until you showed the aerial shots. Lots of work go into getting those fields ready. Oh....I almost forgot to tell you that you are as smoking hot as ever. Has to be said. 😊
Food is expensive enough but with amount of work needed it really should be 10 times more. Look at the capital costs, tractors, implements, land wow, great operation and video.
Hi bell of Molly videos lol,, I’ve got. my crops in 100 acres pasture hay for small bales 25 acres corn for picking 25 acres wheat , it’s been in ,kicking back and painting the house , and gathering eggs oh and maybe a cold beer or two,, have a great day 😉😉😉😎
Love the videos on how hard all y’all work to produce the food we so easily take for granted. Molly, Shane, and all the folks from Bells Farms, Love Y’all!!!!! From your expat Mainiac in Southeast Georgia!!!!!!
The drone footage helps give scope to your operation. You have put together a very informative and entertaining channel and all the hard work that goes into potato farming. Thanks for everyone putting in all the hard work!
Thank you very much! That’s means a lot 🫶🚜💚
At 6:39, I could watch you fill that planter all day Molly, WOW!
Molly is getting “big time” with the drone footage. Keep up the good work.
Fantastic footage Molly and Shane. The drone shots are a great overview.
I love Bessie, following the tractor all day. Great farm dog.
She really is the best farm dog! Very good girl🐕

Well as long as you stay in the rows you can move it alright. But you don’t back up with it when you are in the field. Drive forward to the end of the headland then turn around.
Wow i wish we had soil with no stones rocks and clodes and not have the destone the beds before planting looks like heaven 😂❤😊
These fields are very nice! Some of the ones we have are not as good
Thanks Molly and Shane for the video! I feel like potatoes are fairly inexpensive for all the work that goes into farming them. Larry
Thanks Larry, I would agree with you, they could be more :)
Yhank you for sharing...you are a bundle of joy..

Hahah yeah, she only goes back and fourth for a bit, then she is smart enough to know that she can wait by the truck when she doesn't want follow :)
Food is expensive enough but with amount of work needed it really should be 10 times more. Look at the capital costs, tractors, implements, land wow, great operation and video.
Thanks you, It is a lot of work, and hard work. But it is very rewarding.
