    This video is a great testimony to how much respect we all should give the American Farmer.
    Don't know how you physically, mentally and emotionally handle all the trials and tribulations. But I thank God that you do.

      I could never be a farmer...can't deal with the stress and sleepless nights. My dad was a small time farmer and when his combine broke down it was a major deal, might be a few days before it was fixed, usually because it was worn out outdated equipment. Bad weather, too much or lack of rain, hail, low grain prices, massive debt, cash flow problems, worn out machinery, breakdowns, etc. finally took their toll on him...massive heart attack at 53yrs killed him.

      Thanks this means a lot coming from a sixth generation farmer who's family has been farming since the mid 1860's. Thank for recognize the handwork that the less than 2% of our population put in to feed the world on less acreage every year.

      I agree! My knees and back are absolutely shot and I would still like to be a farmer for even just one day before my times comes. I could see myself at peace with the world waking up early in the morning knowing that my hard work and dedication was for the good of the people. A lot of jobs are pointless when compared to farming. Mad respect for all the farmers out there.

  • @rightsideofthegrass8114
    @rightsideofthegrass8114 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Outstanding on a couple of fronts: (1) Getting the JD service people there quickly, having the right parts, and getting the machine back in service quickly, (2) Great attitude toward troubles. These troubles are bound in happen in some form, but response to them is what is important - "Just get it fixed so we can get back to work...." Those marching in the streets for 35 hr work weeks, not 40, those marching for !5/hr, etc need to follow the paths of several YT farmers. They could learn much! (3) Good video skills. Enjoy the channel...

    Oh the joys of farming. I farmed with my family for 27 years of my life. Just north of you up here in Manitoba. Back in '97 it was so wet the grain carts couldn't even get in the fields. I drove the combine up on the side of the ditch and was dumping in a truck that was parked on the side of a road. When I backed up I mistakenly backed the rear tire into a culvert and ripped off the entire axle. Same deal. Crippled in a ditch full with 4 ft of water. What I've learned is that if you can survive grain farming you can survive any other occupation with ease.

Maybe the seed bill, the fuel bill and bill at the local equipment dealer". The reporter said "what about the rest?" And the farmer said, "they are going to have to wait. It was only a million dollars!"

Seen the same thing happen to a case except he was going down the road in road gear we spent a day flagging traffic around him and patching the groves in the ashpalt it made. That guy was lucky he got it stopped right before it would of went over the edge of a steep borrow pit along the highway. People that are now farm folks don't realize when you have the amount of iron running everyday break downs will happen no matter how good your maintence is. Glad you got it fixed and running again

    Hey buddy. You sure do have a dry sense of humour. You had me good and proper when you said about going to prison. Love the videos and learning about what you do.

    If i didn't already know that the Deere crew got paid handsomely for the job, I'd say they should be given a medal. Glad you were able to have the combine back online same day.

    @loadpin 7 ปีที่แล้ว +58

    To bad about the combine. I cracked up on your $30.00 tie rod. I laughed and thought, yeah right, maybe the tax is 30 dollars. You are a true Farmer, great attitude, when things go to crud, you didn’t lose your cool, just have to get it fixed. Glad it came together as quick as it did.

    Funny, I've been around farms all my life and have never had the opportunity to participate in the day to day operation and everytime I watch this I regret never taking the time to learn. You are a very fortunate man. Most people would never even think about where most of there food n grain comes from much less want to farm it themselves. May fortune smile apon You and your family during the coming cold spell these next years.....JL
