Swathing? 🤔

- ** Mike as finally arrived back up north where Ashtyn has been swathing. She is swathing down our canola up there because if not, the canola will shell out due to the variety that we grew. Swathing is another tool that can be used for "pre harvest" management. And as you can see, she loves it! 🙂

Mike, don't be sorry for the noise outside the cab. It comes through as music to me. Love the sound of a diesel running and fans blowing and pumps whining and hydraulics.
Mike your Greatest Asset is your Ashtyn, please be careful for her, it wont belong Ashtyn will give Birth to your first Child , I think its a Boy, Bless you both, try to be not so naughty , I know its hard for you, keep your Eye on your Ashtyn she will need you more soon, Great video, I never saw the Swathing before so its a first for us also, Cheers & Best Wishes , Trevor.W.Bacelli.

I love it, Mike!! These videos of yours sure are awesome!!!
Mike buddy, you remind me of myself as a child so excited to run around the field chasing after the machines videoing or even just to watch them go round and round
Watching the swather reel through the window is almost hypnotic.
Good to see Ashtyn being active in the Canola, making her own sound choices. Love that.👌👍🌱🚜🍀
Very Very nice 👌 video learned a lot, I am from South Africa in this part of the world we plant canola in the Overberg area. I am from the Free State and here we plant mostly corn 🌽and oats. Mike keep up the great videos 📹 and have a nice day.
Mike I like it up there better you got trees and it's nice and green 😀
I love swathing too. We actually swath some of our straight cut liberty Canola as well just so we can get combining quicker.
I used to love swathing, then we switched over to straight cutting canola. And i can confirm swathing in the rain, as long as it didn't rain too hard. I once swathed canola in a thunderstorm, was epic. Still miss that job.

I remember back in the 80s and 90s swathing canola in the rain. Could never swath cereals in the rain but with canola it works good. Canola cuts like butter wet or dry and you can actually go faster when raining/wet because it isn't as puffy and flows through the swather opening much better. I've never seen anyone swath canola without a roller though.

i have seen a lot of this crop swath down and guys will have a roller behind them to kinda push down the swath in to the stubble to hold the crop from blowing away
There is one major advantage to swathing I suppose, especially a crop like that with a fair bit of weeds in it.
And that would be that the weeds also dry out in the swath as the canola ripens, and goes through the combine easier and…
I swath my barely had weeds in it made a nice job combining. I find when swath the straw Gose through the combine much nicer
Never seen a swather in action before. Mostly row crop here in Deep South Ontario but the few cereal acres are all straight cut
I love the rotating radiator wiper!
It took me some time figuring what this was for…

It's more like a vacuum cleaner.
Hope you bring her lunch, supper, treats when you visit her in the field
We always did 3 rounds around before going lengthwise on our family farm
Holy canoly !
AWESOME VIDEO!!!! I been waiting for a swathing video, can’t wait for the combine with the pick up header

Seeing Ashtyn pregnant makes me feel so happy for you Mike. I can see her not stopping until she pops and even then she’ll be doing nappy changes in the cab whilst seeding next spring 🤣
nice vid
Guess Ashtyns mood was as good as the yield when she got out of the cabine...we all know that
Having to cut so low hope you can get off before a big wind comes up and blows across field. God knows it never blows in Sask. lol Enjoy you videos.
Hey mike how ya going again love the content
Has Ashtyns family ever tried Macson swathers?? Awesome video Mike! We swath everything on our place in southern Alberta
Hmm guess a was wrong, straight cut seems to be the norm i Denmark also :)
I'm guessing that i don't pay enough attention to things when i drive around... :)
Swathing og canola/rapeseed was a thing og the 80'. The new variaties are straight-cut.
Raps på skår var en 80er ting. Nu om dage er det bare lige på med mejetærskeren. Rapshalm er guf for halmfyret pga olieindholdet. Jeg ved ikke om man presser det stadigvæk.
Now it decides to rain😳😃
Swathing was always my 3rd favorite job in the fields an international 4000 with a 12 foot head
Ashtyn right at home in a Case!
Now I need a Mike video on the difference between straight and swatch cutting.
Straight cutting is cutting it off the field with the combine. Swathing is cutting it with the swather then picking it up with the combine
Ashtyn rocks that swather!

You should look into some high mileage all terrains for your truck. It’d make a world of difference on those dirt roads especially after a rain.
Now we know why Mike isn't on the stuck list, no sense of adventure or daring
For me also, I enjoyed swathing.
Well Mike rain on those swather tracks make combining a nice adventure.For tracktion its good there is some stubble left to float on. Buy a bag of dry weather at de grocery store my grand parents woud say.See the video s comming Mike.Nice demo swather with 4 driven wheels is a good opportunity to learn the job? Just saying...Oh and that Alexa lady has some sticky fingers on the F5 button
Even the swathers are huge up there!

Anxious to see if your Northern Operation may someday grow to be be Ashtyn and your home base.
Epic screenshot
Nice video
The canola stems should dry and rot down nice with the moisture trapped inside the swath , knock down on greens also
My uncle lives in swift current about 3 years.and I from south Africa 🇿🇦
Jeez that is too green! We Spray under the swather in Australia as those weeds will set seed before you can spray after harvest.

looks like they got over twice the amount of rain in Wishart than we got here
You will clean the farm up 👍
hmmm...if you think your going to pickup those swaths with the pickup header for the Ideal, think again lol
I know you have to wait for the swath to dry out and to compact it with a roller before it can enter the combine, we never swath anything except for grass on our farm
Looks like you would scoop up rocks easy but the only damage I see would be to the knives.
19:04 You check the map Ashtyn draws... I see that someone has seeded on the road
I've seen it asked many times. Mike why don't you have a drone? He is his own drone folks :)
Looks like there is a little Mike on the way. Congrats and happy farming from SW Ontario.
Good afternoon
Love the videos Mike good job. Did you get stuck???

the girl can drive a swather !!!! // pickup looks like a Saskatchewan pickup after a rain
Mike,
life long Palouse Wa. Farmer told me, (after hearing grips about rain) "if it rains enough to grow weeds... you can afford to kill'em ".
That excludes sprouting and spoiling crops?
Red looks good in the field 🤣
Saludos desde argentina
Hello Mike case 🌧️☔😢😬🤞🇮🇹
So is the Game Plan for you and Ashton to move up north and start your own branch of FHF? Just seems like a lot of extremely long commutes while you establish yourselves there. I can’t imagine the toll that takes on both yourselves and the equipment to run a few thousand acres that far away from home base.
In Denmark most canola is swathed i think, can't remember seeing it being straight cut.. :)
really ? i live near slagelse and i have only ever seen canola being swathed like 2 or 3 times but almost always straight cut in my area.
I would agree that it is much more common these days to straight cut it in Denmark
I have never seen any crops swathed in Denmark. ever
My neighbor to one side swathed every year and the other neighbour harvests it directly I live between Aarhus and Randers
@@ninus17 Hehe i have never seen it, only seen it being harvested from a swathe :)
But okay i'm not a farmer soo i wouldn't really know.. :)
I am growing some winter rye for my chickens. First time ever planting a cereal. No clue what I am doing.
Speaking from experience if you don't bite the bullet and make it a point to get back into shape you'll be this way for the rest of your life. Harsh but it is what it is.
Ashtyn perfectionist woman.

Excellent video Mike I've never seen that being done close up. Good to see the wife hard at work on it too. She was driving that big Case like a Pro.
i don't miss swathing.. combine all day and swath all night is for chumps.. now we don't have to worry every time it starts blowing over 50k whether our swaths are blowing.. straight cut yeilds better as well
Get you some Rain-X on that windshield!
Why would you cut the green stuff that isn't ripe yet instead of the brown stuff that is borderline too ripe? Won't that just delay it and cause even more loss?
Hi mike
Mike, are you possibly dealing with some RR resistant weeds up there?
Hey mike could you do a equipment tour
Think that was the old One Earth bin set up on 35 highway in the opening scene but I could be wrong.
I think you are right
I love how at the end of the video mike keeps his distance from Ashton and her younger brother. Mike a little out of his element with swathing.
In Dakota we run rollers on our canola when we swath it. Wonder why not up there.
Most farms do in Sask also. Hope they don’t get a big wind….
I was thinking the same why no roller hopefully wind stays under 30 km lol (never happens) I absolutely hate combining swaths vs straight cut combine productivity goes down around 50% picking up swaths but swathing is a necessary evil for harvest timing reasons on our farm as well.
@@chadkubashek4622 why 50%down ? I have been told that picking up swaths is actually faster.
@@techHmrk not in irrigated canola (heavy swaths) just doesn’t feed as smooth depending on conditions max speed is 4mph no matter what try any faster you will jam solid
Swathing? Looks like combining, mixed with hay cutting
Man you found a great wife .You two take care and I hope the crop turns out to be a profitable year .👍👍😊

Nice video!
Morning
I just visited your website Mike. It says: "Mike is of the Mitchell fourth generation. He farms along side his two brothers, parents & their families."
Where's Ashtyn? Time to do an update ;-)
“& Their families”
I am guessing the "& their families" unless you don't think she counts as Mike's family 😉
Is the long term plan to start your own farm in the north closer to ashtons family and move away from the main farm in the south.
7:50 are we just not gonna talk about how speedy mike is?
Are those back wheeles free and you steer with the fronts, or how that thing even drives man heh
Mike, what’s your “go to” for Canada thistle? I hit it spring, summer, fall, can’t make headway on my patches
Bro in every country it is same in India also it was drought like sitution now its time to harvest rice now it rains every single day
Ashtyn's brother seems like a really nice person.
They all are yes 🙂
@@mikemitchell2554 tell him to grab his swather, hes pulled.
Case, i guess she's not gona break any time soon..haha
Hi, I have a question the combine goes on gps?
Mike it like playing cat and mouse
I thought you bought the 690 to bring up north
08:12 haha , piece of land definitely needs some tlc.
Do you bail the straw or what do you do with it
Rolling a short crop like that won't do much...my canola is the same way. I have seen the odd time that rolled canola blew away worse than unrolled canola

You are the best! I hope one day when all of this weird cov19 will end, me and my family could come for a visit 🤘
As per usual it rains at harvest well at least it rains though.
I've got a question Mike ... how long will the crops stay on the ground before being harvested ...
I've got another question Mike ( sorry , I'm curious ) ... this year, crops were small ... this year, rain was tiny ... why not using stripper heads in front of the combine ( not talking about canola )
... it would allow to keep snow in the fields ...
For your first question the canola usually sits between 1 and 2 weeks
Round is a shape
Mike you up there or getting rain when it’s too late for the crops just like it is here in the United States in Iowa who late to do any good
You need Ol Nick and Antoine from South Saskatchewan Farmer to bring the old gear over Swathers, Ol Sassy Massey n Deeres, and the pull behind Combines.I like old school equipment still does what it needs to for them, its waaaay undersized for your operation but man they'd look good doing it.
