#Farm #Illinois #Fall #Harvest #FarmingSimulator22
Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

I never thought I would see the day your DAD as the Camera Man . I'm impressed .there is still hope for Katie . Hope your Dad's surgery goes well
It was pretty great to hear him be the camera man
Best of luck to Marty with his rotator cuff procedure. I had mine done February 16th and I'm still in therapy. Much longer process than I thought.
Great video, as usual.
"not the safest or most efficient way to do things"... A man who knows what's up. I grew up with a father whose motto seemed to be: "if you can't fix it with a hammer or vise grips, you got an electrical problem"
Marty on the Camera!!! Awesome Andy!!!😁
The most Katie in a video ever! Hi Katie! If only you had filmed this spring.
Good thing Katie was around to keep you guys on track.
It was great to hear your Dad on the video.
Loving it I work over here in Australia for contracting company who has about 25 John deer tractors not as big as yours 350 is our biggest cheers
Excellent video. Great to see family members again. Keep up the good work and hey leave Katie alone, she can make field cultivator tracks wherever she wants...haha!
Wait, we have 2 oddities in this vid. One, Marty is not wearing a red shirt. Two, it appeared Marty was operating the camera for a brief moment when he walked by the sagging header trailer. Are these good or bad things? Really like watching you fiddle with the sprayer. On to the next project. Keep it between the rows 🚜🌽🌽
Hi Andy, so Marty fancies himself on the camera now 😂,TRIPPY FATHER ,great TH-cam chanel keep up the great work
Hey Mr Marty had a cameo even if voice only he is the best hand!! Top Notch equipment!!
That "small" Milwaukee is surprisingly powerful. It can get tire nuts off quite easily, except when they are a bit too tight. But it's spurisig how many time do I use that at first instead of anything else. Pushing a button is way more easy than jumping on a breaker bar. :D
Agreed. I do find that a full charged battery does make a big difference!
Funny seeing the big planter work and then seeing the earthway planter in the garage....
The big planter could buy you about 2300 of those earth way’s… 🤣🤣🤣
Great to have Marty taking the camera.
Not all the custom applicators run 20 mph. I learned long time 11-12 all day and less stuff gets broken
Wait, did your dad use the camera and talk to it! Nice time to get him one.
Always nice to see a family working together on a project.
We switched to 2 psi check valves on the nozzle bodies and a minimum set pressure of the machine to 10 psi. 2 psi check valves open in a range from 2 to 8 psi, why, I don’t know. This helps us run slow and start out slower. We had an issue like you did where half the tips would open, burning some crop and leaving strips of weeds. Seemed to work for us beginners. Have a great day!
I appreciate that feedback. I want to say that I have 10psi nozzle bodies, but I can't recall.
@@aTrippyFarmer I would agree. The 10 psi check valves we had wouldn’t all open till about 18 psi. It was frustrating. Have a great day.
Good job morning Katie
👋👋👋
The Marty cam was clearly the best part of the video lmao
I watched Mike Mitchell's video where they have a nice jack for their sprayers and a nice skid steer attachment to take off & put on tires, especially sprayer tires. It pays for them since they have much more equipment to change.
When you are running the vast amount of acreage that they are, it is pretty easy to justify some of that fancy stuff. It would be a huge overinvestment for us!
@@aTrippyFarmer Totally agree.
Awesome wallet and KeyCase 💯
Agreed!
I have really enjoyed watching you come up to speed on the sprayer. I felt like I was sitting next to you as you acquired spraying skills.
Changing tires a strap thru the top of the tire hooked to the fork truck with tension also when torquing the lugs use a torque wrench get it even all the way around
Since I am in the lawn care business and select different nozzles depending on what I am spraying your explanation of what nozzles to use was interesting to me. Have you ever given an explanation of the different herbicide platforms. If you have please link it in the next video as I also find that interesting. Great video. Good luck to Marty with his rotator cuff surgery. I had mine done 2.5 years ago. Follow the doctors instructions with the therapy and he will be good as new.
I’m not a farmer, I thought it would be fairly easy, but, since watching your vids I’ve learned it’s not easy. Allen is one smart guy, I had no idea farming took so much knowledge. I watch every video.
have you ever thought about getting a skid steer to change tires. you should also look at a tire grabber
Mornin, Mike Michell bought a jack (for sprayers) & adapter for the bobcat (that grabs the whole tire) and looked safer than doing it your way.
Thx love the video's
Mike Mitchell had a video 8 days ago on changing those tires with the correct equipment. He is up in Canada. Never knew there were attachments to a skid steer to change tires.
We only use a forklift to for changing tires on our Deere sprayer. With us 3 20 yr olds we can get one swapped around in about 20 minutes. But we also use a 3/4 air impact. As for that head trailer I would say you’re probably at or exceeding capacity, if it’s just something to store it on you’ll be fine. But I wouldn’t road it more than necessary.
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!!
I knew on the 2nd “tilt back” by Marty you had lost your forklift privileges for the day. I did laugh when he immediately got it stuck. That was God’s way of telling him to calm down.
Good one
Good job trippy
great video!
Awesome video 😊
Awesome video😊
Hopefully you guys get some rain soon. Seen possibly a dry weather for awhile.
Corn crops around us in West Tennessee leafs of crop starting curling up.
We usually put our floaters back on after the the summer work is done with skinny tire work is done so it’s ready the next spring
It’s been in the low 90s here in gilt edge Tennessee
We switched floaters and row crop tires on our sprayer for years. Until we got row crop VF tires. Haven’t changed tires since. I’d highly suggest looking into some! Also thought it was cool Marty picked up the camera. Really enjoy watching your videos, I watch every one of them.
When switching sprayer tires iv found that using a fork lift to get in on the hub is best, then rotate tire to where its close, use 2 long pinch point bars under each side of the tire to get it on the lugs. Having 2 allows you to pick one side up a little more than the other to rotate as your lifting if you need to fudge it a bit. Sounds like a pain to manually lift it with bars but it actually works pretty slick. Everybody’s got their own way and tricks they like but that’s mine
I appreciate the insight. It’s definitely a learning process for me, and I’ll take all of the tips that I can get!
Andy👍🏻💪🏻🇺🇸
We never need to change our tires on our sprayer. Even on wet springs. It has no trouble. You should try your sprayer with the new tires in the spring to see how you like it. Our floater tires set is brand new and not even used. We are thinking about selling them. You should definitely give it a try
On our old r4030 (non exactapply) we ran red 04 John Deere tips ,and we sprayed everything with them except xtend .on our new r4038 exactapply rig we run the 08 low drift jd tips . And I love them, I can run 20 15 or 10gpa and not have to change tips .
Dear God, the world is coming to an end. Marty DID NOT, I repeat, DID NOT have red on today. What’s a strange day it must have been lmao. Hope everything is up n growing by now!!
Howdy trippy
Here is my prediction Andy. By the time you reach lay by with your spraying you won’t need those 4’s any more. And don’t feel bad on your over apply, think of the repercussions if you under applied. While in my area anhydrous went like the dodo bird 20 years ago, I am a huge huge proponent of side dressing. Especially if you ever use the new unverferth. Tried one four years ago, and ended up buying one. Worth every penny.
Gonna get a NTB for the hagie?
I wish Katie wasn’t so camera shy. Mostly bc I’d love to hear her “what my dad did today” commentary. Your Marty commentary always cracks me up. It’s usually bc he never stops moving, usually at his own pace & direction.
Katie is very shy. She could tell some pretty funny stories from her perspective, especially because she is usually off doing something other than myself most days!
@@aTrippyFarmer I totally understand. Shy or not, Katie has a loyal following already.
Hola acá, desde Argentina ,tenes laburo ya me voy para allá manejo una s780
Would be a good investment to buy a 3/4" torque wrench to torque the wheel bolts properly.
So, do both sets of sprayer wheels have the same circumference ? Retorquing your wheels is a wise decision.
I didn’t think you could leave treated seed on top of the ground? Is this ok in your area?
If that is against the law, I was unaware. I wouldn’t see it being any different than your planter units hopping out of the ground and spilling seeds on top, but I could be wrong.
Where I live sun comes up in the east and sets in the west. Corn does look good.
I know you love to answer farming questions. Ok, don’t laugh at me, yes, I’ve been watching farmers on YT for several years, but still don’t understand the difference between a field cultivator, vertical tillage, a “digger” (which Larson’s run in Minnesota after tillage & in front of the planter). & a ripper. I know that rippers have long shanks Minnesota runs bc they have very sticky wet ground & it just opens the ground but doesn’t turn anything over. I know what vertical tillage does. Is that also a cultivator?
Okay buckle up: a “digger” is a field cultivator. The difference is just slang. For some reason, those guys up in Minnesota call them diggers. A mulch finisher is a field cultivator with a disc gang in front. They do pretty much the same thing as a field cultivator, but with the added disc gang. Those tools are used in the spring ahead of a planter. A vertical till is a glorified disc. To be technically correct, it is a disc with narrower blade spacing and set at a less aggressive angle. Their primary goal is to downsize crop residue and disturb the soil to a slightly less degree than a true disc. Most new VTs, like ours, are usually adjustable. They can be ran aggressively or more passively depending on the goal. You can run those in both the spring and the fall, but they are primarily fall tools. A ripper is a general term for a heavy tillage tool used in the fall. Most of the time, a ripper has disc gangs and big shanks. They move a tremendous amount of soil to incorporate residue and break up and compaction. The goal is to dry the ground as quickly as possible in the spring by revealing as much bare soil as possible. Theoretically, the heavily tilled soil should also allow water to permeate better, though it also opens the door for a lot of washing. There are a lot of different types of rippers, so the name is very broad. We have a disc ripper and an in-line ripper. I hope this helps some…
@@aTrippyFarmer YES it does! It’s the slang that confuses me the most! Makes total sense that Minnesota uses rippers bc their soil (they call it gumbo)is very dense, black, sticky & WET, tough to drain. They get a lot of snow/rain, just lays in the fields. Alabama, Florida & Texas fields are sandy, they just VT to chop debris then build furrows ahead of planters bc it’s light & dry. Ohio, Illinois, Indiana & Iowa are in the middle. Every field is different everywhere, so is every farmer from no till to deep till. SO interesting. Nothing like prepared dirt ready to plant, even in my little gardens. Thank you.
Do you feel like Luigi changing tires with the fork lift?
I must be delusional! Marty without a red shirt? Can't be
We always push our seed population and it always yields better then less seed population and spacing. Have you tried 15 inch spacing seeding beans? On testing every year the 15 inch spacing beans out yield everything else
My number one advise DO NOT run the lug nuts tight with an impact get a torque wrench! After a few times with an impact the bolts stretch enough they will break off the first sprayer I ran with floater had 4 out of 12 lugs missing after 6-8 changes
CrossFit farm
Do you not believe in a torque wrench?
Adds 15 minutes to the job. Torque wrenches are needed for engine assemby. Not much else, if you have common sense. Certainly not for wheels.
You can use a torque wrench to install a light bulb if you want, but completely unnecessary.
that trailer is poorly engineered for the height it is caring
Yea that trailer doesn’t look right. It should not be bowed like that.
Way too many ads for this video. It may not be your fault but it really has become unwatchable.
Sounds like you need to upgrade your TH-cam package.😂
I didn’t get many at all. I can recall 1 or 2.
@@Stuffynes I stopped counting after 12 and I still had a 1/3 of the video left to watch. This is not on the creator, this is on TH-cam. They have been upping their commercials and adding more that you cannot skip.
I had at least 5 or 6. At one point, there were 2 adds exactly alike almost back-to back.
