We plant beets around our corn crop because we bought the processing equipment to remove the pigment from the beets. We then utilize the liquid for snow removal around our 2 dozen barns, driveways and to remove the snow from the roofs. We haven't plowed snow in 3 years and our 9200 acre farm is in Michigan where we get lake effect snow. People have asked us why it doesn't snow at our farm. Loved this vlog...
Cale, God Bless you, Laura, Grant, and all the other farmers who work so hard to put food on our tables! I don't think that you all get enough love and appreciation from the rest of us. Take care, and God Bless!
Cale, you guy's are Great in my book .... IWas a farmer in my early life Now I'm 70 and it gives me so much satisfaction .... To know that you are true steward's of the land Bless you And May God Hold you in the palm of his hand❤
Absolutely keep on doing what you're doing. We love your content. LEAAD Farms and Laura Farms are the only farm channels I watch. Love your family. God bless!
Live to watch yall's videos. I was born and raised in the suburbs but my mind and lifestyle was country. Never got into raising any cattle or crops but lived in the country was awesome. Smellin the dairy cattle farm across the road was a smelly situation but got use to it. Still live in the country and will not never ever live in the city again. To old to move back there.
So neat to see open farm fields and cows. Reminds me so much of what the southeast valley of the Phoenix metro area used to be when I came out in the early 90's. Now all the farm fields and feed lots are gone; sold off to developers from homes and business. There are still a handful of fields left out here; mostly alfalfa, corn and cotton.
You do it well and Laura and Grant are busy as well I farmed here never watched the watch just keep going till you finished what you were doing for the day,really enjoy watching it is so much bigger than I ever farmed.
Congrats Cale on a Million views. I’m surprised it’s not more. What makes your channel interesting is you don’t script stuff. You just walk out of the shop and start your day. Your presentation of topics is refreshing. Your irrigation system is fascinating to watch and how it all comes together. Keep doing what your doing.
Cale, You are just refreshing to watch. Everyone runs into difficulties iI am sure to many of us who watch your videos. It is Faith that helps us and you sir have great Faith in God above. Thank you so much for your leading the way of facing what is before us. John in Missouri Valley Iowa
Cale, Farmers are great American patriots. Appreciate all of your and other farmers hard work to feed America and the world. You are an example of the American dream....wonderful family. Appreciate the joy in your heart. May God bless you. Congrats on 1,000,000 views. Bill
Cale, it is interesting to watch your farming compared how we do it in Wisconsin. Appreciate your patience and explanations to topics obvious to you but new to us.
Congrats Cale. Love watching your doing’s. I turned 41 this June but I still have dreams and one of them is working in a farm with big equipment. Last week I started my truck driver license course, it’s a start! Regards from Estonia.
Cale, We DO ENJOY all of your content!! You, Laura and everyone else on your farm keep us VERT entertained!! Continue your great work to keep us fed….with food and your all your farming content!!
Cale, your a hard working farmer feeding America. Congratulations on 1,000,000 views. Great videos keep filming. Great content as well. Carl FONDEROSA FARMS MD
Congrats on the one million views, Cale! I/we watch your videos because you and your family are very likable people and have interesting things to show us all out here, even though you know that they are just ordinary things in your life. Just keep on being your true genuine selves and we'll keep watching!
Cale, I almost feel guilty for not paying you tuition for what you’ve educated me on irrigation farming, and what it takes to be a proud, hard-working steward of the land. Plus, anyone who proudly displays the American flag (and the Gadsden Flag next to it) is tops on my list. Congratulations on a million views. I'll be in the mix for the next million.
You do some awesome work with the farm. Keeping Laura rolling has got to be a challenge. LOL> Hey Cale, Your not the only one talking to the cows. I want tell on anyone here. Just bring them some cubes when your out driving buy. They will be happy.
My brother kept messing with a cow it finally got tired of him and put him in a tree me and my dad just laughed at him he stayed in the tree for a hour or two before the cow left great video keep up the good work God bless from GA
Cale, I was born and raised on a cattle ranch and working farm in western NE. Flood irrigation and several sections of grassland. I enjoy watching the different, yet the same type of work I grew up with. I am glad I am not doing it now but I do occasionally miss it. Thanks for your and Laura's channels. I enjoy them both.
Heya Cale! It’s interesting to watch your channel to see how food (and seed) is produced these days. When I was a kid in Idaho, we could make money moving pipe for irrigation of the potato, barley, and wheat fields. Now that is all automated using pivots and such. Times have certainly changed. Thanks for the videos! ~ Sam
as much as a lot of us love the content....The people...You, you daughter, Zack, Chet, the Welker,s, etc.....It is you that we gravitate to. There are a lot of farm channels out there but i think you will find that a lot of your subscribers are subscribed to the same list of usual suspects. As i real life...lots-O-peoples.....but small groups of friends. God bless!
Yes, please continue! You're doing a great job and I really enjoy watching what you and Laura do on the farm. Shows just how hard a job farming can be. However; with such great rewards. I look forward to your videos. Take care and stay safe.
Live on a mountain in the Ozarks. Wish I had some flat land. Enjoy watching you, Laura, and Grant. Watch the Cornstars. Watch the Arms Family. Watch too many farming and homesteading channels. Such is much better than movies and TV. Grandparents had an orchard, grapes, berries, and fresh vegetable operation. We grew the usual suspects. It succumbed to urban sprawl about 30 years ago. Gramps had passed, moving granny from the homestead was painful. Grew up pruning trees and vines, planting, tending, picking, etc. Folks today don't understand the effort, the miracle, that brings food to the grocery. Just now getting much needed rain...
Morning Cale, thanks for another great vlog, really your channel reveals your own unique personality and what kind of choices your faced with and your way forward out of difficulties. I have driven through Nebraska many many times. I love the history of say the Pony Express and the homesteaders and little towns like Gothenburg and Cozad . I love it ALL. Your channel is for family listening and hope your sprayer gets fixed without eating your pocket book alive...... You plant and God makes it grow. I've been out to Blair, Ne recently. Cale imagine trying to make a living on an Irish farm with maybe 50 acres and using horses and old old wagons..... Much appreciation from a Brit living in Indiana......many thanks love you guys.......the corn is looking fantastic all over Iowa illinois Indiana Ohio all looking good..... Question: why would some one chop or cut 4 rows of corn to the ground and leave the fifth one up any ideas? Robin.(thats what I saw)
Grew up in Wisconsin dairy country and I miss being around farms and farming. Love watching all that you and Laura do, Cale. Your explanations about growing corn are great.
I dunno, but pivots have got to be some kind of mechanical miracle...to see those gigantic things crawling around the fields is amazing! We have them on peach orchards here in SC, but never knew they were called pivots. Anyway, greatly admire your life...sure it's a lot of hard work, but it's guys like you , farmers, that are the backbone of this nation! Huge tip of the hat to you all!
Love watching your videos! Your work ethic is funominal! Constantly changing what you have to do each day! God bless you and your family! Keep it pure! Keep it simple!
Thanks for the content Cale. I always enjoy watching the day to day ops of farming. The ups and downs of farming is a good thing for everyone to know. This is how we feed the World.
Farm vlog’ing is so unique. You make this watch so much more interesting, (including the few chuckles here and there). Your life / farming outlook / perspective; plus experience, is invaluable. Thank You‼️
Yes sir, you have some nice bulls or steers in you heard, the calf next to you Baldy cow look thick. We do haying and some cattle, We just showed a bull working the cows. your looking a little dry like we are in Texas. Keep safe and nice video.
Excellent content! I grew up loosely around farming via my best friend. Smaller ordeal and no corn but fun to watch sir! Nostalgic of sorts. I appreciate the content!
Spent summers as youth on family farm (beef/feed/cash crop) when most of them were 1/4 to full section family operations. Lots has changed, cept for the people:)
@@scottsoper aye here its various levels of rain lol average is 1450mm, but some areas get over 2000mm lol thankfully im East Coast so get less than average rainfall and some years no snow, whereas the high rainfall areas can get 6ft when we got nothing lol
Congratulations on one million views! I do think that getting help from Laura has improved your videos. The videos that show what you are doing but edited seem to be the best. Live streams on the whole do not work as well. However the live stream where you just leave us to gab with each other and pop in seem to have some benefit like answering questions with the next video!! It does help to have a plot!! We are all waiting to know how the Miller Sprayer problem gets solved and all the details about it. I am glad that a neighbor was able to help by finishing the destroying. That had me a bit worried because it had to happen on schedule. The Miller Sprayer can take it's time to get fixed now..... except we want to know!
Is the "open corn area" at 7:25 the place where corn was knocked down getting the Miller sprayer pulled out of the field? It looks about the size of the destruction area when Laura, et al got the disabled machine out. One more note of encouragement, ... enjoy your videos and explanation. Keep 'em coming when you can.
Keep forgetting to ask, but the beans at the end reminded me. How are your fall/winter beans doing that you drilled in either November or December? I've been genuinely curious, was thinking about trying a couple acres myself this year just to see what happens. Regardless, I definitely want to do a couple acres in March, which is early enough for our area that people would be talking! Just seems like the earlier planted beans always do better
As a new person on here i can say your vids are awesome,very educational,i appreciate your work :D P.S: Sorry if some words aren't written well im not a english speaker as first language,im from Romania.
Love seeing those pivots work, we do not have them in south MS, nor do we need them. I am guessing that the further away from the pivot point that the sets of drive wheels have higher gear ratios to keep the piping straight?
The way it works is by switching the tower center drive motor off and on. If a tower gets ahead it hits an off switch and if it gets behind it hits an on switch.
Nice, and congrats on 1M views! Personally I like the "rougher edit done quickly", I prefer honest content about what you're dealing with that day or week or whatever instead of the over produced, flashy stuff.
It`s astounding to ponder the money in that irrigation equipment. Then there is the cost of drilling the well. A home well is north of $10K I think. Y`all must get a quantity discount.
This field is hillier than your other fields. I understand the round pivots - I have not comprehended the way the "tails" or whatever they are called work
How does the pivots work in regards to water flow, wouldn't the inner part get more water than the outer edges as the outer track would move at a faster rate or is each nozzle computer controlled to allow more precise control of the amount of water the crop gets?
Cool dude from right down the road in missouri. So are the pivots permately anchored at one end. How do you cover all 2000 acres do you have that mamy pivots to cover all 2000 acres?
Good video!! To me the water is the Key part of successful corn bushel s per acre!! Really enjoy the pivots an how they work an all the different seneros involved in irrigation for the huge farm . Once in my 28 years of a contract welder the refinery I at sent me to a grass farm that reused the waste
Water . When I arrived at the pivot . The center pivot was wrapped up an completely corked screwed into a huge pile of steel an twisted iron an water every where . Was quite the job to fix !!! I was never told what went wrong are what caused the event to totally wrap up the center pivot. But all I can say for sure those irrigation wheels an motors must be some kind of POWERFUL to do that kind of Damage!!!!!!!!!!! .
@@tedstephenson7116 a washing machine motor can be made to pull a freight train with enough gears so to speak. That is what moves a pivot: motors through gear boxes. The only thing that stops it is lack of traction in mud.
@@scottsoper thanks Scott , so is the water pressure an flow rate driving a propeller an a planetary gear box that builds torque for the wheels to rotate????? An how on earth do they go in Reverse??? Thanks
@@tedstephenson7116 NO; it is an electric motor on each tower driving a gear box that drives the wheels. see Laura Farms video at about 6:33 to see them fix the drive system. th-cam.com/video/fnm3UMJTnLo/w-d-xo.html
Cale you and your family do the best videos on TH-cam. Especially how you explain everything throughout the farm thank you
We think the world of you and your family Cale !! Thankyou for all that you do and how you do it !!🌻👍
REALITY TV !!! This is it !! Talking to cows , some of the best conversation and therapy you can get .

Like I told your daughter, I think farmers are miracle workers plus I like to eat - thank you!

would discuss the differences between pivots and SDI? gallons saved vs cost to install?

It`s astounding to ponder the money in that irrigation equipment. Then there is the cost of drilling the well. A home well is north of $10K I think. Y`all must get a quantity discount.

This field is hillier than your other fields. I understand the round pivots - I have not comprehended the way the "tails" or whatever they are called work

How does the pivots work in regards to water flow, wouldn't the inner part get more water than the outer edges as the outer track would move at a faster rate or is each nozzle computer controlled to allow more precise control of the amount of water the crop gets?
The size of the nozzle controls the amount of water. so close in the nozzle is smaller and out far it is bigger.
Congratulations on 1m views. We love your channel.
