This is my family’s harvest! Thank you so much for the beautiful photos and video! So proud of the work they put in and you captured the beauty! Many thanks!
Love the rolling terrain, the way they farm such rolling ground and the explanation of the water ways. Great job showing all terrain through all the different camera angles. We had some water ways and wider field edges around creek beds on our farm, we had pride in our conservation efforts of the topsoil, even planting trees where the terrain and soil wasn’t the best. Love to see more like this!
Mike- at 2:04 you mentioned the grass strip waterways- and the benefit they have for reducing erosion. They are also very important for capturing nitrogen fertilizer from farm "run-off" of nitrogen fertilizer- preventing it from goin into the Mississippi River and ultimately the Gulf of Mexico. These farmers are responsible environmentalists! Love your channel and love Eastern Iowa- beautiful part of the world- the people and the landscape- amazing.! (Actually- this is the "flatter" part of Eastern Iowa- get closer to the Mississippi for some amazing landscapes- Iowa meets Sweden).
This is one of the best corn harvest videos i ever seen! And the wounderfull working of the driver who drives the corn harvest machin! Realy a perfact job and a greit pleasuer to watch this video
Harvest has definitely progressed from the days of picking ear corn with a 1 or 2 row picker. That was still light years faster than hand husking or shocking corn.
Great Vlog, those Claas Lexions have a huge appetite, the JD 9520 and the 2? trucks are busy taking the grain away from the combine, great Vlog the drone work was brilliant, thanks
Thanks for sharing, both another quality video and a bit of your family history. As i have grown older I have gotten more and more interested in history and some of knowledge really put a lot in a different perspective. A lot of swedes have tried to make a better life in America. Some of them travelled the whole way back again after a few years.
Excellent film footage as per usual, nice to see arable land that's very much like where I live in the UK, "up and down dale" we call it, not flat as a fart tree less field's, though the fields are no way as large, biggest near me would be 120 acres or so.
Trivia: Loess is the name of the geological whatever you call it from the Glacier periods in Iowa and Siberia Russia. The Loess Hills are essentially snow drifts of dirt formed on the edges of Ice Glaciers. End Trivia. They can bee seen along the Missouri River valley Betweem Missouri Valley (US Hwy 30) and Sioux City (US Hwy 20) of course the actual distance is longer than that
Great video Mike. Did you visit the Field of Dreams when you were there? Only 15 miles away! I live in Dyersville! Those field are fun to spray second pass!😉
Hello Mike. Just heard you say your ancestors came from Luxembourg to Iowa . As did mine. To St joseph I believe . They moved to Canada in early 1900,'s. I believe our name is still common in Iowa.
Hello, great video! I am curious to know the name of the variety of this grass planted in the middle of the field, which serves to contain the water. Because it impresses me that it resists herbicides! Or which herbicides do you use that don't kill the grass?
For all the nice work slowing the water down still saw a nasty cut in the creek bank. Farmed about 135 northwest of there still rolling but not like this.
@@austinhenning6271 yes my friend im in tucuman /Argentina a lot of sugar cane here.also here in Argentina are the most beautiful women of the world👍👍👍
Those grass strips also absorb a lot of nitrogen fertilizer run off- so it doesn't pollute the gulf of Mexico via the nearby Mississippi River. Those strips save soil erosion and reduce water pollution and they are widely used these days on hilly landscapes. Your question is a very good one- I hope this helps answer. regards, mark.

It sure looks like you were getting a good yield out there. The rich green grass in the wash-a-ways show that rain was good in this area.

Such a beautiful farm and I love the curved paths the combine takes in the field, looks so tidy. The undulation gives character.
"Is this Heaven?, no it's Iowa". Absolutely beautiful footage Mike. I felt I was in the field with you. How cool is that!
And that’s an absolutely beautiful movie....one of the best movies ever made.
“Are you a ghost?”
“What do you think?”
“You look pretty real to me...”
“Well then, I guess I’m real”
In ev
Great video with farm equipment as always. Thanks for sharing some of you family’s history.
another great movie.
The undulating terrain sure beats the endless miles of flat country to look at
Quite the awesome drone footage
Excellent driving skills!

Your agriculture guys feeds the planet
Best regards to the American farmer .

Wow Mike........everything on this video is on point!!! Drone footage, scenery. One of your BEST for sure!!! Thoroughly enjoyed it. 😁🤗👍👍
Like your videos I like your detail on explaining different things as horsepower and such things as that
Awesome family history story, I love family genealogy everyone should know where they came from!
Loved your family history, do a video about your farming history. Would love that
Iowa. A place I would love to visit on my life time. I’d probably fall in love with it and stay. Such beautiful land from the eyes can see.
Great video mike!
Great video Mike, I never get tired of watching your videos 👍

Great video Mike!!! Beautiful scenery!Looks like they were utilizing the auxiliary grain tank on the combine.
Great video Mike. The topography was awesome. That machine really eats up the ground.
Great video ,Beautiful rolling hill's and great Arial footage
Thank you for your videos that are the best Mike Less
Those Lexion’s can absolutely EAT corn !
Beautiful views Mike
With you farming is always fun as always, great memories

Didn't know you were so close. Looks like 151. I drive that 3 times a day.
I just watched a program about Beavers
. It was the best Dam program I've ever seen
What a lovely curving pattern of the corn at 7:20. Almost seems a shame to cut it down
Love the Lexion combine.
What a pretty field, and even though it's the wrong colour, that big JD tractor and Brent trailer is very impressive.
Awesome video! 😎
Great video Mike. The Lexion looks pretty good out there. Speaking of looking good, that was apretty good looking tractor and grain cart there too.

Good thing they use a lower sided grain wagon with unloading through all those water ways. Good operators.
Reminds me of central and south central PA. Very beautiful. Great work Mike!

I'm a simple man, I see a Lexion, I press like!
Great video! Iowa is a beautiful state.
Awesome Harvester
Great video Mike. Did you visit the Field of Dreams when you were there? Only 15 miles away! I live in Dyersville! Those field are fun to spray second pass!😉
I did two years and and have a video on my TH-cam channel of them harvesting the corn
Hey I live right near your relatives here in Ohio with the apple orchard. What a small world.
Well I wasn't expecting to come upon a random video that was so close to where I live but here I am!
Never seen waterways like that. Glad you explained it. Beautiful fields.
You will never hear me complain about the video being to long.😉
The farmers does a nice good on how he plant his field's to stop water erosion.
Hello Mike. Just heard you say your ancestors came from Luxembourg to Iowa . As did mine. To St joseph I believe . They moved to Canada in early 1900,'s.
I believe our name is still common in Iowa.
How many acres are the machines working on?
The combine was sure filling that cart to the brim. One full truckload on one cart. Good economics.
As always great video Mike
Thank you for sharing your video...AWESOME...
This is about 60 miles from where I live I did not know anyone around here had claas combines.
Hi Mike, why don’t you directly apply a header with chopping the rest of stubbles? No risk of leaf folder? Loved the landscape and this Lex!
What a great machnies there!
We do the grass strip in Ga, alot
Great job 👌,, Thanks Mike ✌️
You could have told me that this was here in Pennsylvania with those rolling hills.
Wow, how do I like more than once?! Serious outfit and fantastic scenery 👌

You good 🎉🎉🎉
Great video Mike

Love it I grew up in south east Ga on a small farm.
Amazing work and equipment :)
This is what living off the land is all about
That operator must be busy stick handling those fields! Good video 👍
Oh boy is he ever doin a dam good job I want you to plow corn for me
Great great work 🤝💖👀
SUPER!!! Super video,super LEXION!♥
I like farming videos. From imperial co California.
@ 19:13 you can see what looks like a hole in the bank of the ditch !
Lower right side .
I drive by this field often, recognize the nearby house!!
That is so cool! It looks like interstate highway in one of the shots--is that I-80?

@@maryhayward79 Cool, thanks for the info. I've been through Iowa many times and always appreciate the natural beauty!
Mike , may I visit You ? I'm from Argentina and I Will travel Iowa in October
Mike, how many bushels are they getting to the acre
Nice work! Thanks for the video.
I think the video was probably shot earlier in the fall!
Love the look of those steel fuel tanks on those John Deere 4wd’s!
Is amazing to watch the video
The Claas engine is not pronounced Man, but M.A.N, best regards from Germany
It’s always been pronounced man here in the states.

Wow, that's really great entertainment!!!!
Could they do tiling instead of using the grass strips?
Good question! It’s a combination of both, tiling and grass strips.
Those grass strips also absorb a lot of nitrogen fertilizer run off- so it doesn't pollute the gulf of Mexico via the nearby Mississippi River. Those strips save soil erosion and reduce water pollution and they are widely used these days on hilly landscapes. Your question is a very good one- I hope this helps answer. regards, mark.
Nice.Claas number one.
Mike it’s kinda late corn seems to be standing good why so late?
was that some derecho wind damage in the corn.
Love the song from Larson farms 😆
Very very nice mike
Hay problema en el cribado de el maíz?
Hey you from Dubuque cause I am
Corn, corn and more corn!
What’s the reason for the grass strips.
"Buy a green combine", said the Deere salesman
So he did
Super.
What are the green grass areas for? Why do they skip planting them?
Waterways, This helps with erosion.
I wished I had the money. Total dream job to do farming and drive tractors. Only the rich...
@proud american Working on it. 5 acres in Texas. I could use a tractor. Very expensive...
I live in dubuque. Nice terrain but the good farming is an hour west. Lol
Did that grain cart fill the semi in just one load?
Hi there my favourite Harvester is 8080 new holland ❤
