Love seeing uncle Randy in video. Would love to hear uncle Randy and Doug’s talk about how farming was when they were young age. How equipment has changed in their life time.
Yeah add in Merlin too
Ivers Farms had a similar video of the family history that was very interesting.
@@kentalstat8024Ivers Farm is awesome and yes having the older generation carry a camera and talk ayehsr they are doing, how it’s different is fascinating. Seem to be good people, huge operation too
They raised hogs up until the late 1990s. Difficult to compare that to grain farming. Dougo does battle with skin cancer constantly due to the tractor he drove as a teenager. A tractor much older than him with no cab.
You can tell how excited the Big Swede is for wing night!! Must be good wings. =)
There may be a pretty girl involved🙂
@@M.M435 and beer I bet
They can eat all they want as long as they don't take flight.😇
Dougo and Randy seems like you have the next generation of farmers well trained and independent enough to just get on with it.
The variety of your videos about farming are the best. Though i will never be a farmer, your channel teaches me what todays farm is all about. The amount of equipment needed for various projects required. The diy attitude from years of family farming, and not having to pay outside of your own crew saves money, allowing purchases of that equipment. Years ago, working for a large Calif hwy const co, when the bid was made, it always included piece(s) heavy equipment to keep the "tools" updated. Im seeing the same at Larson Farms. Moral....you can teach an old guy new things, even if he never uses them. Thanks!
Still better than television.
I am very impressed.Chet of the amount of the knowledge that you and your crew have specially the technology you guys use on the farm,God bless you and be safe. I really enjoyed the video.🚜🚜🚜🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Glad to see the new bin up and near completion. Can’t wait to see it in action.
Chet and Larson Farms, your video is incredible! Keep working hard, and I wish everyone safety and good health!
Love watching your videos. I’m from Alaska and have enjoyed seeing all your hard work on this channel. Farming isn’t my gig but your work ethic and attitude draws me to this channel. Been watching since the beginning and have enjoyed all the upgrades you have done to the farm. You always give God the glory and a shout out when things go good. 👍 Keep up the hard work and great content.
Chet I watch you Erik,Brody and Jordon work and it proves to me that there is hope for your Generation.
love watching what improvements u are making to the farm and keep up the good work your family be proud of what u are doing
I have to say, I have been watching your videos from the beginning and they have become so full of info and great stuff that people have no idea what you go through to run a farm and be productive and be safe, god bless
I'm impressed with your ability to do the tile job yourselves. The new grain bin is looking fabulous.
It sounds like you have a strong connection to Uncle Randy and Doug and their farming experiences! Hearing them talk about how farming has evolved from when they were younger could offer fascinating insights into how much technology has transformed agriculture. From manual labor and simple tools to modern machinery and automation, their perspective would provide a valuable look at the changes that have shaped the farming industry over the years.
Make sure you check the gear box's while there on the ground to be sure they have gear oil in them at the right level, beats climbing all the way up there!
I follow all the time but fell behind a bit, getting caught up today. I must say you guys are remarkable in your knowledge of all things on the farm! My goodness you're even dirt'olygist 😉 but I mean hey the stuff you plant in is dirt so I'm sure that's a required course lol. Chet, how old were you when you were first working on the farm? I don't mean full time, I mean just going to help out. It would be awesome if your mom and dad have home movies of a very young Chet out on the farm learning. But I'm gonna give props to all you boys on the farm. Y'all can each jump in and do anything!! So BRAVO🎉 Give yourself a big pat on the back 👏🏼
God Bless you and keep you safe!
Very cool and what needs to be done to be on top of the competition. I can only say, never forget where the farm came from and I know you have a vision for the future. Cheers and God bless.
Really cool that you guys hang out in your off time.
Always amazed how much equipment is needed and the skills to operate a modern farm.
Never a dull moment around there. Its pretty cool you are able to "lay pipe". You guys are very self sufficient.
Being self sufficient is common amongst farmers.
Think about putting a winch on top of one of your platforms. It will make lifting repair tools and parts much easier and safer. Use a swing arm boom.
Seems wrong to have a wench do all that work. Chivalry is dead.
I feed my day with the visit here. Thank you
Thanks for informing all of us!
Thanks for the tour around the new grain bin set up. Regards Steve in New Zealand
Good day for yall. Hope the wings were good. Thanks for sharing the farm life with us. You do a great job of it.
Looks like Dirt Perfect II, modern Tech Knowledge is something else and for a farm to be doing something of this magnitude is amazing.
You know I like that pipe laying video, great job! And the bin design and process walk-through was fascinating.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video guys. Thank you guys so much
I've watched every video and im always looking forward to the next one!
What ever camera you have is working VERY well. Looks like HD
Always love seeing your videos guys much love and respect thanks for sharing
A couple of grain bin observations/comments. Years ago, Dad sold and erected Behlen grain bins far smaller than what you have. The air plenums from the fans were actually constructed into the concrete floor. Only the drying bins had a full, perforated floor. Also, wouldn’t tube or belt conveyers be more efficient in close to horizontal applications and inflict less damage than augers? Do they take more power?
I'm very sure that they know what they are doing and using the best application
All bins I see at grain sites these days have full air floors.
Thanks for another great video Chet and crew. It was most interesting and enjoyable to watch.
Thanks for showing us around the new grain bin setup. Most definitely interesting.
That is one huge grain bin. Lot of technology built into that bin. Neat setup. Huge motors on those fans. Wow.
Will be nice when all done for your corn harvest yields.
Thanks Chet.
You all have this tile pipe laying process down to a science. You have the right equipment for this and all of you know what to do. Even have uncle Randy in the process. Yeah.
When you are done with this field you should have the water problem fixed. Nice work everyone.
About it I guess.
I find that new grain bin setup most interesting. Lots of technology there making that all work. Lots of dollars invested there.
Enjoy your chicken wings. That will be a fun event I am sure. Easy on the beverages.
You all take care.
The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
Nice grain bins and system. Cool video. I’m ready for some chicken wings too😅.
Tiling is all new to me, understand the process now and the soil will be much drier and no more puddles.
Are you guys becoming an independent grain elevator, all you need now is a train car setup and you would be in business. I love watching you guys grow, granted the tornado kind of moved it along for you.
Thanks for sharing, Chet. Be safe. Stay well. :)
Empty grain bins have great acoustics for music.
Chet you have a great farm vids ty fun to watch
Good stuff guys. Thanks. Always enjoy your videos and never miss them. I think I’m gonna have some wings tonight.
I have had many years of experience with those tube conveyors. I hope you have better results than I have. My opinion of them is that unless you have a somewhat liquid product,the stress put on the tube is excessive especially with grain
As a professional pipe layer I'd say you did well. As mentioned you can never have to much pipe 😉
Chet if you go back many years that was the style before the augers were made. It was paddles on a chain that ran inside a tube one way and on top of the tube for the return. It is weird how things revert back with a little twist.
I watch all of your videos and I enjoy them all. Chet and Dougo remind my dad and I. What is the soap you use to wash your equipment and where can I get it? Thank you!
0:03 everyday is a good day for that buddy 😅😅😅
thank you
Thanks 👍
Another great video.
Thanks
Nice ride along
Nice work
Couldn’t tell, is this the largest bin you’ve installed? It’s nice that you’re installing the bin this time bc you needed more storage & not bc the others were destroyed in a storm.
Your videos are very engaging and personal
Great stuff Chet
Hey Chet
Did you and Jean Mary separate or get devorced?
Miss seeing her on your channel, you two are so great together.
Take care
Hoping for a great harvest for you!!
Dang Chet! I wish my pipe laying unit was as half as nice as yours! 😩
Fascinating about the grain bins. How many bushels does the new bin hold? With this addition how many bushels in total can you store at the farm ? Great video. I learned something. 👍
Thanks for the discount on the factor meals besafe
good video guys !
Wow, I see Neil Mohan's daughters are working this corner for all it is worth! You must be a proud PaPa Neil!
I wish I could go up to there farm I would be in heaven I would like to meet these guys sometime
@10:18 😂
That's an understatement
Well Chet I saw Legarm’s hymn in his new bin a few years back time for you to show them up. A little star-Spangled Banner would be good about now.🇺🇸🇺🇸🍿
Are we ever going to meet this Ben guy that keeps holding your grain?
It's flipping hard to believe grass root can go that deep.
I’ve heard that the ladies prefer the 6 inch pipe better than the 4 inch 😂. Good job laying the pipe gentlemen !!
That should make electric meter spin off the pole!!
Informative video.
I’ve never seen the tube conveyor, thanks.
Deere used to make 'paddle auger' which worked like yours. Old link chain and all.
Be careful dirt perfect. May try to hire him away lol I don’t think so. Mike is pretty well set up.
19:26 curiosity what about all the little teeny holes all the way around on the floor are they supposed to be there for venting or do they plug them off before they put the floor in.
Great video
Your tube conveyor is called a grain pump as far as I know
Wednesday wing safe 👍👍👍
You could have taken us along for wings! Hope they were good.
Magnifique vidéo et le tracteur et machines à déranger et bien intéressante et bien équipés et le cilo et bien équipés et intéressante 😂😮😅😊
Dang everything is a big money science from back when I was a kid. BTW Brodie needs a new box of scrubbing sponges.
Every time I see you poking a frozen meal, I think of that trip you filmed long ago to F2F and the very late night meal you microwaved adjacent to your parents’ hotel room.😂😂😂
We need longer videos please
Can't beat wing night!
Everybody has to have a "wing night" once in a while.
Waving a hand from texas
✋🏻👋🏻🇨🇦
@@loriboyce942 👋
Piping changes with Randy supervising rather than Dougo, OK after further viewing it appears Dougo & Amy are in California.
I know it isn't good but I can't wait until the blown motor video comes out.
What type of Oakleys are those Chet? Great content in your videos, thanks!
Chet, how long did it take you to learn all the knob buttons in tractor and semi fertilizer hauler . That to me is confusing all the knob buttons . We just have old John Deer tractor’s .
We hire a crew to come in to put tile in fields. Very good video Chet . Wings our good .
Don't forget to update us on those chicken wings.
When you realize that the technology and elements of the grain bin dates back to the former Roman Empire. Some Two Thousand years ago. In using the concept of a "hypocaust". Except not for heating but for cooling and ventilation.
A hypocaust (Latin: hypocaustum) is a system of central heating in a building that produces and circulates hot air below the floor of a room. The word derives from the Ancient Greek hypo meaning "under" and caust-, meaning "burnt".
The ceiling of the hypocaust was raised above the ground by pillars, called pilae stacks, supporting a layer of tiles, followed by a layer of concrete, then the floor tiles of the rooms above. Hot air and smoke from the furnace (a fire) would circulate through this enclosed area and then up through clay or tile flues in the walls of the rooms above to outlets in the roof, thereby heating the floors and walls of the rooms above. These tile flues were referred to as caliducts.
Without posting the background information. I may as well have been using a hammer and chisel to write this. In having its context open in hopefully understanding.
The tile project seemed to go really good. Did you get much footage of the project Master pipelayer did?
Well back in the 60s we had the big bins..4,000 bushels..times have changed...they say today's combines can do 4,000 bushels per hr...guess are 4 or 5 corn bins would filled in half a day...thanks for the content
The x9 in high yielding corn can do 7,200 bushels. Case Af11 is at 8,000 bushels per hours crazy.
but the reason this is happening is because you need larger and larger farms to be able to break even on global markets. Small farms just cant exist anymore, which i think is really unfortunate.
A lot of families farm together now creating the illusion of a big corporate farm when actually they aren’t.
My dad had a Massey Harris 72 combine.13 foot grain table and 50 bushel grain tank.
A drone shot of the tile layout please
Big Sweed vs wings
The ultimate showdown
My brain needs to grow up to the rest of my body lol everytime I hear laying pipe my mind goes to the gutter
Dont forget its better to be blown than compromise🤣
The one that got me was "old Eric has some experience up in the hoe"!
That's what she says
@@deannelson9565 LMFAO!
@@GhostRider-dp2tc hahah! I forgot about that
Amazing it’s the exact opposite to what we do in Australia 😂
There double runs in west Kentucky on our farm also
When I built bins we just called them a double barrel run
Thank goodness you forgot your lunch so you could tell us about the 50% off our first order. 😮😮😮😮😮
Can't even imagine the hydro bill at that site 😮
20:00 Most likely its fan impeller is a different design, smaller but pushes more CFM, and needs the extra horsepower to drive it.
fan designs have to balance volume and pressure, so likely this fan is designed for more pressure, and makes up for the lower volume by spinning faster with the larger motor.
at least thats my speculation.
3450 rpm?
