    It's amazing how much better that Pik Rite vertical bar spreader works in comparison to a horizontal or a side discharge spreader. I watch Farmer on the Prairie and Sonne Farms and I have seen them both comment on how nice your spreader is. SasKDutch Kid has a Bunning vertical spreader with only two bars in the back and it doesn't work as well as your Pik Rite at slinging it out in a consistently wide pattern. Thanks for taking the time to film all this stuff so we can watch!

    Grandparents had a small daily farm , 25 cows, in 40 - 50s. Did see the constant work required. My cousin was waiting for me to grow up and help at hand milking. Got it mechanised before that. Thanks for the memories. Take it easy, you look sick, and over doing it now will only make it worse.

    Funny story when our kids were young we would go for drives and smell manure being spread the kids would plug nose I always told them that that smell is the smell of money to a farmer.
    One time our son smelled it and said oh the smell of money.
    Congratulations on your corn harvest keep up the good work.

    Sorry for the Case IH of the contractor that doubles didn't like each other anymore.. Just the single can do the job apparently.
    That manure looks nice it looks well processed over time and ready to benefit the land. Nice spreader by the way, it seems you continue spreading the manure in corners so it means your PTO allows you to take the great angles while it is running👌👍 So you're hauling manure and after you will seed the cover crop? Still busy times to get things done well before it becomes really cold? Good luck to finish all critical things off👍
