Colby makes me smile, when your dad assumes the position that dog knows just what to do & once mounted Colby stands proud on that Bud, it's just a beautiful thing to see. ❤️
I use Battery Tenders on my equipment when they are going to sit for long periods. Cost a little money on the electric bill but it sure beats having to deal with dead batteries.
Disconnect the neg battery terminal when things set for a while. They will not run down if tops are clean and they will last many times longer. The few minutes it takes is much cheaper than replacing multiple large batteries.
You guys are awesome, 4 years in a row of droughts and terrible crops and you are always cheerfull. One farmer we watch has a bad crop this year, just this year, all the years before bumper crops and he spend tons of money and now he cry’s on here about his bad crop. You guys make due with old maschinery, not fancy new once like this farmer, I tip my hat 🎩 for you guys, you are my hero’s
Now I'm curious which youtuber that is, none of the big ones I follow has been complaining _complaining_.. Ofcourse a comment now and then about wishing they had better crop pops up.
It always hurts to see yields that low. Insurance companies are never as generous as they want you to be. Looking forward to seeing the Big Buds out in the fields! Take care and God bless!
Thanks for another very nice video Welkers. It was interesting and enjoyable to watch for sure. Yeah-finished Harvest for 2024!!!!!! Seems like you just got started and now done and ready to start seeding again!!!!!!! Always feels good to get the headers and combines put away for the winter. Now you are getting your seeders out and getting them ready to go. Wow. Time for seeding already. Seems time just flys by. See Colby was get his ride in the tractor to start the seeding time. Machinery is always needing checking over and adjusting it seems. Just the way it goes. Same goes with the seeders. Takes a bit to get the seeders ready with all of their adjustments and such. Guess that is about it I guess. Done with harvest and now ready for seeding. And the year rolls on !!!!!!!!! My blessings to all of you. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. 😊👋👍✅🙏💕🇺🇸
Maybe those CRP acres will produce better next year. Overall, you guys had a good harvest and everyone is healthy. Lots to be thankful for. Best wishes from Austin!
Allways be thankful to the Lord for all that he provides🙏 And lay the next years crop in His hands, God can multiply even if the crop is not the greatest❤ Good to see the Buds out of the shed for some work again. Blessings from Norway🇧🇻
Great video guys I'm glad you're finished harvest and that you're on to getting ready to drill winter wheat !!! Hopefully 🙏for a really wet winter and lots of moisture for spring planting 2025
You mentioned that you have a field that is compacted and I know you guys generally are all (No Till) but when dealing with a field that you know is pretty heavily compacted do you guys ever do even just some shallow vertical ripping to try to loosen it up which will allow rain water and melting snow in the spring to go more easily down into the soil.
Great video guys, so happy that you guys finished up with your harvest of 2024, wish your numbers were better though. I will keep praying for you hopefully you will get some rain
Demco are a great grain trailer And EAST makes a great heavy duty dump trailer. for lime , stone and grain . I think they are the best. Just my opinion. TAKE CARE AND STAY SAFE !!!!!
On the 'AC' ----get some dry nitrogen and pressurize it with a little bit of freon and a safe amount of nitro. . There is a Max pressure for the system' Use leak detector to find leak. Compressor shaft is a common place for leaks.......
Scott why would you plant winter wheat into such dry ground? or is it you need the seed to lay dormant and use the spring thaw to germinate? II know bit of farming lol haven farmed with dad and so on in me younger years. but never had nothin to do with winter wheat ect. last early fall I spent a week back home at a favorite lake. and went around visiting people ect. Lester was setting up to cut on dad's ground, It was so so so sad how tiny the Barley curnals were. I would guess it was about a 15 bushel to the acre crop. I was a very awesome day to be able to see the big ol combines at the old family farm once again, since it has been aproximentaly 30 years from when I left there. Monty told me his ground averaged 18 bushels to the acre, it is so way to dry any more, I prey for moisture for you farmers out there. We all need you all so very much and hope the best for you all hugs from karrie
The tractor that leaks fuel back to tank why not fit electric fuel pump it really smartens up the starting of old equiptment use this method often with forestry equiptment works a treat saves on starters and batteries but also huge benefit at fillter change those electric pumps really chase the air out of system
Don’t feel bad we have 140 acres of soybeans and be lucky to to get 2 semi loads off the field. And that pathetic I understand you’re frustration with that type of yield it’s not even break even 😂
I like the idea of having a set of tractors. One of each series. I'm wanting to do the same with Allis Chalmers D17 tractors. I have a series 4 want another 4 with loader and a series 1, 2, and 3 D17 as well. Plus a D19.
You guys should buy that 740 Bud you saw in California a few years ago. Would be really cool to see it out in the field pulling a seeder next to your 600 bud!
So you’re making a slice of bread to the acre or a loaf. We had hay that made a flake to the acre before. It would be cool to see the 435 Bud on a drill
We've done it both ways, no toll and till the snot out of it. Basically rain makes it work and no rain makes it fail. We've done over 5,000 crp acres in the past 20 years.
Just curious. Are wells expensive there? I did a natural flow well for my home at 325’ for a few grand in Louisiana. Just curious if it would be worth it to install wells for water to increase yield? Or is water to deep there to justify it plus the amount of acreage you’d need to cover?
MULTI SPECIES COVER CROPS...winter radish and turnip.... Zero machinery, fuel and labor inputs.... Young generation farmers Open your heart to building the soils 😅😊😅😊🎉❤❤
Thank the Welker people for working hard to make food to feed America......Thanks guy's and GOD BLESS....

Praying for you guys! I can't wait for the day that I hear you guys get a perfect season and the crop price blows through the roof!
Row crop farmers call wheat "poverty grass" for a reason.
@@asmrhead1560 I have never heard that expression before, but it’s true!! Lol
I use Battery Tenders on my equipment when they are going to sit for long periods. Cost a little money on the electric bill but it sure beats having to deal with dead batteries.
hear me out, what if the distilled water level is low?
A cupple of Solar Panels on roof above big buds .trickle feed ya batteries when not in use.

@@DescorathMaybe he is talking about Brian's farming but I don't really watch many of his videos anymore. It's just a guess
You Tube saved your bacon, so to speak. Think about the farmers with no You Tube channel! 🤔
Thank you so much for the harvest videos. It was a joy to watch them. I hope to see a little winterweat seeding. Blessings!
Thank you! Always something good to watch, and learn :) I didn't know the big bud had a compressed air take-off port! That's really handy!
You should put a hitch on the front of the side by side then you can push the headers in a lot easier.

I use CTEK battery minders on my batteries. They work well at maintaining the batteries. I have no affiliation with CTEK.
Maybe those CRP acres will produce better next year. Overall, you guys had a good harvest and everyone is healthy. Lots to be thankful for. Best wishes from Austin!
When it comes to tractors, gotta have a good even number. One more Big Bud!!!!
Good to see and hear the big buds out again!!
Scott..... you have to get a Noco GB155. It's literally changed my life. Everyone that sees mine buys one. Spins an 855 like a top.
Allways be thankful to the Lord for all that he provides🙏 And lay the next years crop in His hands, God can multiply even if the crop is not the greatest❤ Good to see the Buds out of the shed for some work again. Blessings from Norway🇧🇻
Better start praying harder it's a drought
I have been praying for your prosperity for a long time. Keep running the good race brother.
Great video guys I'm glad you're finished harvest and that you're on to getting ready to drill winter wheat !!! Hopefully 🙏for a really wet winter and lots of moisture for spring planting 2025
Harvest is done,that last field sure was sad but every bit helps.Good luck with the planting this fall.🤩👍👍✌
Too bad about the weather and field conditions, on the bright side Colby is such a cool dog...
its Kobe
Like putting a non writing pen back in the cup...an empty can of whatever on the shelf is just as profitable...makes inventory a chore!
Hope you get a bumper crop next year . Good luck with the sowing of your winter crops.😊
Awesome video guys. thank you so much
Sad to see the combines being put away for the winter fascinating bits of kit to watch.and also how many acres have you got on your farm 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤
There is a big bud for sale in Lloydminster Alberta canada.about 9 hrs north of you
You mentioned that you have a field that is compacted and I know you guys generally are all (No Till) but when dealing with a field that you know is pretty heavily compacted do you guys ever do even just some shallow vertical ripping to try to loosen it up which will allow rain water and melting snow in the spring to go more easily down into the soil.
there's a bud coming on auction in Canada in a few weeks . I think it was one of the later models, but don't know what series. check it out
Great video guys, so happy that you guys finished up with your harvest of 2024, wish your numbers were better though. I will keep praying for you hopefully you will get some rain
With just a bit of a boost Coby is up on the fender and in charge of a BigBud!
It’s good to see the big buds again !!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Same thing down here in So Cen Tx. Dry haven't had a drop in 2 months.
Congrats on finishing harvest! I know it has to be a good feeling.
I agree with Scott, U need a 4 series. It's time Bob make Travis a offer he can't refuse.
Thank you for all you do
Demco are a great grain trailer
And EAST makes a great heavy duty dump trailer. for lime , stone and grain . I think they are the best. Just my opinion. TAKE CARE AND STAY SAFE !!!!!
Farming in the early 80’s had a 1/4 of canola before Round Up ready. That looked good but didn’t fill a tandem. I know the feeling.
You need to put a Reese hitch on the front of that Canam. That would make it super easy to back 4 wheeled wagons in
I mean instead of replacing the flex tube straight pipe would be pretty awesome!!! Prolly be loud but none the less pretty awesome
On the 'AC' ----get some dry nitrogen and pressurize it with a little bit of freon and a safe amount of nitro. . There is a Max pressure for the system' Use leak detector to find leak. Compressor shaft is a common place for leaks.......
Keep looking up
Good video. Would have been great if you guys had had a good yield! Love seeing Kobe riding the platform on the Big Bud! Take care.😄
awesome job guys
Sometimes the A is missing from CRP. I'm praying the drought ends and you all can get bumper crops again!

Batteries definitely don’t last like they used to!! I put batt tenders on everything!! Cheap insurance
Yes Scott, you guys do need a 4th Bud😊❤
Greetings from Choteau
You need one of the "new" Big Bud's, specially the one you turned that pin for.
Maybe you can test out a new big bud when thay come out ! It would be cool to see what the difference would be like
The tractor that leaks fuel back to tank why not fit electric fuel pump it really smartens up the starting of old equiptment use this method often with forestry equiptment works a treat saves on starters and batteries but also huge benefit at fillter change those electric pumps really chase the air out of system
More Coby and Big Buds. Wohoo
The sound is just amazing
Blessings from South Texas 🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🚜🚜🚜🚜❤
Sound slide need to put on a lift pump on them big horse units
1 bushels per acre? Holy crop slow down! You're overloading the combine! 😲😁😜
3 is an uneven number and that's why you need another Big Bud, hey, it works for me as a good reason.
Bonjour la famille Welker super video merci aussi a make pour la derniere avec tout c est images et video en drome
That cans empty, puts back on shelf for Nick. 😅
We know that Bob is on the job when Coby gets on !!!!
Big Brute looks like a Big Bud, and I always thought it was part of the family. Adopt Big Brute into the Bud family then you'll have four. 😊
Big Bud cab..
Big Bud hood and grill. Welker customized from a Case fertilizer spreader.
@@randykovalenko1236 so kind of a half-brother.
A children’s book idea. Farming through the eyes of Kolby the dog.
Is Leg Arms hinting at possibly getting to demo one of the new BIG BUDS! That would be sweet!
Don’t feel bad we have 140 acres of soybeans and be lucky to to get 2 semi loads off the field. And that pathetic I understand you’re frustration with that type of yield it’s not even break even 😂
Why plant winter wheat? Save the ground for peas or beans, something that will make more money than wheat??
Hard to feed the world 🌎 on a 1 bushel an acre. Maybe you should start harvesting jackrabbits! 🐰🐇🐇
Coby is the Chief Rabbit Inspector!
Your big bud sounds a whole better than whatever it is I’m hearing out on the road right now.
You can never have enough Big Buds, Scott
I like the idea of having a set of tractors. One of each series. I'm wanting to do the same with Allis Chalmers D17 tractors. I have a series 4 want another 4 with loader and a series 1, 2, and 3 D17 as well. Plus a D19.
We need more Coby 😂
got to love that government subsidies
You should keep your batteries on solar powered trickle chargers. Save money and frustrations.
Do solar chargers work on equipment parked in a shed though? 🤔
2 big buds seeding, 1 Big bud rolling and 1 big bud for tillage and pull out stuck Magnums 😂
Hey, you guys wake up after a couple of months, and we'll see how grumpy you are!😄
By the looks of the floor in the building “NICK NEEDS TO CLEAN THE SHOP!!!”
Nice to have harvest over. Just wish it would've been better.
Your big tractors are the bestest!
Sending 🙏 🙏 🙏 ❤ Welker Farms ❤❤
Do you store your air drills inside during the winter? Is there anything else you can store in the building with the headers?
How many bushel an acre do you seed wheat at? Here we put 2- 2 1/2 that would be rough to not be makeing back your seed
Yes, 4 is an even number. Let"s look for Big Bud #4.
Amen…. God is king and knows all
does the rainfall insurance and such at least cover costs?
You guys should buy that 740 Bud you saw in California a few years ago. Would be really cool to see it out in the field pulling a seeder next to your 600 bud!
So you’re making a slice of bread to the acre or a loaf. We had hay that made a flake to the acre before. It would be cool to see the 435 Bud on a drill
Too light for the drills if they have the other two big ones running
Wouldn't you have planted about 3 or 4 bushels an acre? Then harvest 1! Wow!
We're about 1 bu of seed planting
All I can say is some is better than none I suppose ... 4 is always better than 3
Do you cultivate your CRP after the first year you bring it out?
We've done it both ways, no toll and till the snot out of it. Basically rain makes it work and no rain makes it fail. We've done over 5,000 crp acres in the past 20 years.
"That ones pretty much empty".... puts it back on the shelf.
Great!
Big bud 747 would look good in the fleet
Just curious. Are wells expensive there? I did a natural flow well for my home at 325’ for a few grand in Louisiana. Just curious if it would be worth it to install wells for water to increase yield? Or is water to deep there to justify it plus the amount of acreage you’d need to cover?

How ?
Whose GMC pickup was sitting in the tractor shed? Hope it’s not more engine woes!
What is crp land??😮
The year I started watching your vids, you had to store your harvested product on the ground, out under the sky!
How much time did the AF11.save you guys being able to run three combines
Love the Buds!!!
God bless!
