🇺🇸Thanks so much for checking out our channel! MY name is Jim. I was born and raised on a Peanut and Cotton farm in north FLORIDA. My dad started this farm 45 YEARS AGO. As a kid I always loved cameras and was making random videos throughout my childhood.So i've decide to get back to my roots.I hope you enjoy the videos! PLEASE SUBSCRIBE------
Man that's a nice sight to see the pickers running
Great video glad everything is going smoothly for you.
Being from Indiana I’ve never seen a peanut field. Such an interesting process of harvest. Hope the fam feels better soon. Great vid
Greenwood here.
That was awesome watching the peanut harvest. Prayers for your family’s health and recovery. God bless.
You guys are my favorite farmer channel!!
all love and prayers from Sweden
Awesome!! All the way from Sweden!
When is the next season
Hi, I'am from Poland🇵🇱 and I love eating yours peanuts.
Impressive set up guys. Wishing the family a speedy recovery Jim. 🙏🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸
Good work Gents! Thanks for the video.
Looks like a good crop. I pray that your family is doing better and y’all have a good harvest.
Thanks!
I live in Georgia, and I absolutely love peanuts but had no idea how they were grown or harvested. So thank you for this video. Its nice to see where our food comes from and how much work goes into it, so again thank you for allowing me to put food on my table.
MUCH agreed on all that.
That’s great y’all got some combining done. Looks like they’re turning out good so far. Ours are ready to dig but doesn’t look like it’s gonna quit raining
Radar map of the southeast and especially Florida was quite busy with green stuff, around 6:30 PM EST on 9/16.
We’ve got over 2 inches this week
@@FieldRows we’ve gotten 3 inches so far. Rain chances through Wednesday. Imagine probably that same for y’all. Least looks clear after that
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!!
I am so mesmerized by the machines you operate I have always wanted to just ride in one since I was a kid - I’m almost 70 years old and grew up in San Diego, CA so no opportunity to do so. I truly admire your skills and persona towards farming. God bless your sweet family and speedy recovery.
Thanks!!!!
Awesome job love it!!
Interesting to see joe slow you go harvesting peanuts. Thanks
The tougher the peanuts the slower you have to go
My favorite videos are finally here. Love harvest and great video as always. Can you go into the peanut mill and get a tour? Would be cool to see.
That's some pretty peanut hay!
The best looking Peanut bales in the south!
Watching this video I'm reminded of the singing goober peas in a play when I was in 3rd grade and the very early 70s
I sure love peanut harvest its all trucks and dump carts now miss loading 10 to 12 trailers in a day haul them after dark and stop by the store after last load and back then Wed have a beer and talk yields
I love seeing some local farming channels. I live not 20 miles West of your mill
Looks like Randy would come help you dump on the semi trailers. It is always nice to have some one help guide you and Randy has the perfect calming voice for such high stress environments. 🤣🤣
Agreed!
RIP Drone... nice video!
Thanks for another great video; should I ever arrive in your area I request your permission to meet you Folks in person…. Have a Great Harvest and a Healthy Season…
Great to see how peanuts are harvested.
I like peanuts.
Awesome video! Loved it!
Glad to find your channel being so close to home Abbeville Al
Awesome my sister lives in abbeville
Good to see the Nut Buggy back in action.
Great video
Love fresh peanuts 🥜
Thanks for the video fella's, thank ya very much.
Thank ya Joseph
@@FieldRows you bet.
Great vid 👍🏻 ... off to buy some GoPro stock 😂
Good one, Mr. Mighty, good one! :-) So glad Jim flunked out of fighter pilot school ... heh-heh
Looks like a good harvest so far
Best
You know, I work too hard to settle for peanuts.
!
Love peanuts
The eagle has - been found
Glad you dont have Monkeys riding shotgun on Elephants up the road all them peanuts :)
I remember getting in the peanut trailer when they dump watching for snake
Shawn Ennis....My dad grew cotton, soybeans and I think corn way, way back in the 50's in Arkansas near a small farm town named Osceola. I remember one time when it was cotton picking time . The cotton would be dumped into these old, rickety, wooden sided cotton trailers and then taken to the nearby cotton gin just a few miles away. I asked Dad if I could ride in the trailer to the gin. He said no. On the way back to the fields from the gin, the trailer somehow got loose and crashed into the ditch. I never asked again...!!!
Ran a drone into a cucumber picker. That *has* to be a world's first.
Sounds like Randy is going to have to take over drone duty 😁
I love green peanuts
We have a new peanut processing plant here in our area of SE Jawjah! They're not picking quite yet though! Good to see I will have peanut butter chunky style next winter! Thanks for all your hard work! Jesus is Lord!
What town do you live in?
@@FieldRows We’re in Stillmore, Georgia! Near Statesboro & about 65 miles from Savannah right off I-16! Farm country for sure! Born & raised here but lived in Florida almost 40 years working at Disney most of that time!
I didn't realize how good the hay was after you picked up the peanuts. We make just about anything here in Tennessee like wheat, oats and peas, soybean millet but didn't know about the peanut hay. I looked it up I bet you do pretty good on that as a crop in itself.
very interesting. I subed and rang the bell, so I know when your harvesting again.
Thanks
Máy hiện đại quá 👍👍👍
All we have over our way is rain.
Great channel! Love y'all on TikTok too!
Nice!!!
look like they are turning out
Who are you trying to fool. Peanuts come from the store..........Geez. Love the channel.
That’s what people think, picking those spicy peanuts next week.
@@FieldRows yes sir they do.
Deciding between 1st and 2nd gear. It would be a lot better with IVT.
🤦♂️
Y'all can't catch a break on the rain. Seems every hurricane and rain making system has come y'alls way this year.
Good to see some nuts coming out of the ground though.
We still got about a week or so.
Take care and God Bless.
Keep the drone high
It’s expensive to get those cool dramatic low shots
It’s nuts I tell ya
Great video jim
Thanks Greg!
Driving them Chevy's 🤮. That's ok I'm from DVille originally. Missing the tristate area during goober season. Picked a many a peanut in my life but never get out there during haven't time anymore. Stay safe and drink water! The people of Texas love the American Farmer too. Carry on producing food for this world.
*Harvest time
Hey Jim, I am a gamer and love farming sim. I am trying to gather interest in having the peanut harvest for the game done the right way. I am talking to modders and developers of the game and sending this video to a few of them that I know on exactly how it is done. This vid will help tremendously in demonstrating that. Farming Sim 22 will be coming out Nov. 22 nd which the graphics and software will be much much better Hopefull we will have peanut harvest and planting the "right way" in the game soon. Thank you so much for sharing the video. I subbed after watching this. I am from south georgia.
Awesome I’d love to play it
It's peanut picking time, hope you get the yield you're looking for.
Hope the family is getting better.
Tifton Ga got 2.5 inches today and yesterday
We got 2.20 inches north of Oglethorpe, that put a hold on things for a while
Also I don't know if Jim reads these or if it's randy that's In charge of going through comments, I want to extend the offer of if you need anything built, modified , water jetted or something special a hard to find part, we have 5 axis C&C mills, painting powder coated what ever. We have two 16 foot Cincinnati and Amanda break presses,. A 16 foot Cincinnati shear that can't shear 3/8 mild steel plate. Welding (mig & tig) for aluminum , stainless, atmospheric magnesium welding, titanium what ever from those material to mild steel. What ever u can think of I can build it and be almost free
Could you build a field rows logo? That would awesome!!! This is Jim, I handle the comments, thanks for watching!!
@@FieldRows Absoutly , I did a back lit one for a friend not long ago. I've actually made business cards that were out of aluminum that wZ water jetted and all the writing was done with our 5 axis mill. They really turned out great... What size did you have in mind. The biggest sign I cut out for another farm was out of a 3/16 aluminum piece that was 144" long and 72" wide, so I can go from a tiny project up to 12' x 6'. The water jet is actually 35' long and 15' wide. Also we are going to be traveling from Cindy to Tampa back and forth with out semis, shipping to 2 different power plants in FL one is in Tampa, The other is Jacksonville. We are in FL and GA alot. So getting it to you wouldn't be a problem
Will they use the straw for feed or bedding. I’ve heard peanut hay is some of the best but wasn’t sure if it’s grown differently or if it’s the leftover straw they speak of. Love harvest season
Feed. It’s cocaine for cows lol.
And my God it's horable to square bale....95 no wind so much dust you can't breath ....man I miss home some days
Always great video content from Field Rows channel. Now, answer me a question if you would. Why,on the newer model peanut pickers, are the tire tread reverse from the normal direction of the rear tires on the tractor? Older models had ribbed tires not cleated. But it might fall into the same category of why do you drive on a parkway and park in a driveway. IDK. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us.
Tread is backwords for compaction reasons. When they are like the tractor tires the tread digs in for more pulling power, backwords they float across the ground better.
Good eye I have no idea? Amadas … why is this ?
@@FieldRows Compaction :)
@@FieldRows Yeah in muddy/wet conditions the reversed tread helps squeeze the soil under the tire since the outside ends of the lugs hit the ground first. Tractor tires you want the center of the chevrons to hit the ground first so they "dig in and bite" to get traction. Same reason they mount them backwards on pull type sprayers and auger carts and stuff. If you have something like a hay rake or ground driven equipment with chevron lugged tires, they'll mount those backwards too, but for a different reason-- since the ground is imparting the torque to the wheel, meaning the wheel is under load turning the equipment and might start to slide in wet spots, having the chevrons reversed keeps the tire from loading up with mud in a wet spot and gives better traction to keep the tire (and thus the machine) turning. Used to see guys in the old days have the tires turned backwards on cotton pickers and combines and stuff where if they got stuck in a wet spot, they'd have more traction to back out since the tires would be pointed "forward" when going in reverse... Later! OL J R :)
what do they do with your peanuts after harvested? do you know?
Looks like it's going to be plenty of month at the end of the money...yall need a tax deduction... I'm available. Lol. May try some next year, may have to call for advice.
Plenty of month at the end of the money?.
Grew up farming in Ohio wonder how. You harvest peanuts
We've had 8 inches in two days.
Should have gotten some video of them bailing the hay! What do they do with the bailed peanut hay?
Oh don’t worry it’s coming. Used for cow feed
Great video , you said and I see round bales you called hay ; is that for feed or bedding.? if for feed isn’t that very dirty and dusty? Sometimes here we bale bean stubble and cattle don’t eat it very well?....?...👍👍👍👍
Cow feed
How are the new parts working out great video
So far so good, quite as a Mouse
I pray that you continue to struggle with having trucks and carts sufficient to haul the harvest. “A good problem to have.”
Absloutley! Thanks
Almost time for a dove shoot!
Just found your channel. I,m from southern Alberta, Canada and was interesting to watch how peanuts are harvested. Watching you cut the wind some to stop throwing out good peanuts made perfect sense. Your trying to get the right balance for a clean sample and save the most. I subscribed and will watch more again when I have time. How much rain can a peanut take before quality goes down? What do they do with a lower grade? Thanks
I’d say anything more than an inch of rain is going to hinder your yield.The longer they sit the weaker the stems get and they fall off. Lower grade is used for oil most of the times.
@@FieldRows Okay that makes sense. Kind of like our barley if left for straight cutting rain weakens the stem and the head falls on the ground. I farmed for around 8 or 10 years and grew up on the farm and enjoyed it but I just didn,t have enough acres to make it viable. Worked on a few different farms over my years and welding shops. 7 years ago I went to the coal mine in BC and enjoy that change too. Thanks for the reply.
Are you having pretty good yields? Here in Southern Illinois our crops are pretty darn good this year!
So far so good
what is the quality of the peanuts? Will they bring a good price?
Better than other years. 500 a ton. Rain needs to stop haven’t picked in a week.
hey! i have an airborne peanut allergy, (if i smell peanuts i could go into anaphylactic shock) and i’m going to disney world around the 20th of october and coming back around the 25th. I was wondering how the peanut farm situation is in the south and if there are peanut fields by the interstate? Also, if peanut harvest is going on right now and won’t be going on then, I have lots of questions and just have no answers and figured peanut farmers would know a lot about the situation! (we are driving from nebraska)
There is peanut farms near the interstate boo thing around Orlando though, I would not roll down your window near Lee area.
Wearing an N95 mask might help avoid possible contamination
What’s the name of the hitch used to hook up peanut wagons? You can pull the pin to extend the hitch to the tongue of the wagon.
Deshazo I’m sure I’m not spelling it correctly
Is the dump cart what you used to call the nut buggy?
Correct
What brand peanuts should I buy?
We plant runners so I’ll say runner
Jeff’s radio he wears?? He is a volunteer firefighter?
Fire chief of our local volunteer fire department
Bet it feels good to start harvesting. Question what is the peanut straw used for.
Cow feed
Very high protein feed to help cows keep weight and stay warm in winter.
What do your peanuts get used for ?
Candy, oil, peanut butter etc
An Jesus loves you too man. We had a stomach bug go around in the family 2 weeks ago.. my sister just got over her sickness 2 days ago. An she is the last person in the family to get it. So hopefully that crap is gone....
What happens with the Peanut Hay? I think I asked you last year. I forget 🤦🏻♂️
Cow feed
Hope you have a bumper crop, brother! Here's another video to touch our hearts: th-cam.com/video/WZnISpvkgSo/w-d-xo.html
How did y’all stop the spinners
Take belt off and take off spinners. It’s just one bolt that holds them on to the spline.
Peanuts 🥜?
What made your family get into peanuts buddy
My father started farming in 1974 my grandfather also owned a peanut milll for 20 years or more
@@FieldRows wow that’s great, I always wondered what makes a farmer grow what they grow cheers mate stay safe and keep farming buddy
No offence but how the hell does one crash into a tree, I have crashed into other aircraft but never trees.
Getting third artistic shots are risky
@@FieldRows I fly 90 mph or better, that's risky.
:)
Great sight to see...got a couple of ???s..
Have y'all found any bell boys in the trailers yet?
Is the sampling and grading process, the same that it was back in the 80's or has it changed over the years.(that's the last time I pulled samples and graded.)
Is Keithy going to dog hunt this year and if so, where and will he be filming. Enjoyed his videos from last season. Kept me going while I couldn't get in the woods.
Maybe the rain will slack and let y'all back in the fields. God is great.
What’s a bell boys? I’m sure Keefe will be hunting again
Rattlesnakes
Some “how to operate” videos would be awesome
stopped watching at 5-50
to much flashing about no need bad editing show a slab then move all you are doing is wasting time editing and no able to follow whats happening
BYE BYE
stopped watching this
editor wants cut out all the jump shots
makes just a mess

Randy does the edits
No Trumpkin flags? Where do you go to bow down and worship in the morning?
