Much appreciate it! I’m looking forward to having it in the field, I also bought a 2290 with the full manual transmission rather than the partial powershift
Thank you sir, that video was from last year. Been too busy lately to post up new videos. I have tons of footage on my phone but no time to edit it into a video. Been working 16+ hours a day trying to get caught up
Howdy ya'll, Ì just discovered your channel, I'm a 5th generation beef Farmer in Southern Alberta, and I hope you continue to make far more Farming videos from your part of Saskatchewan, we need more Farmers like you, to show what it takes to feed Canadiens, and the World, Stay safe and Farm on my Friends, Peace
@Gosselin Farms Ed Gosselin Howdy Ed, sorry I just got notification of your comment, strange it took 2 weeks to notify me ?? Always a pleasure to talk with you my Friend, Stay safe and Farm on my Friend, Peace
@@arthurok327 ah, The wonders of TH-cam... Prompt notification is 2 to 5 minutes... After that, it's 2 days to 2 weeks.. all started a couple of years ago, when Google took over TH-cam.. before that, chatting in the comments section was as fast, or faster than texting.. Take care and farm on my friend!
Thank you! Yes, I couldn’t hardly ask for better seeding conditions than this. A little too much oat straw to contend with, but I think it will be okay
With only a 38.5ft tool and 350bu tank I average 200-250 acres per day. But I band my nitrogen and sulphur in advance. With canola I can do 200 acres on a fill
@@NorthEastSaskFarmer nice 👍 sure beats 12' at a time, holds 1,100# of oats, just enough to get almost 10 acres per fill.. wheat is almost 20 acres per fill.. clover, lol.. plant for days on a full..
So is that a Bourgault air drill?? It looks like it is, but it’s black. 7” spacing is nice, that’s what I run too. You should show a person how you calibrate the air tank. Just saying. I would be interested. I have a 4350 been thinking of upgrading.
Yup, it’s a Bourgault 5700, the predecessor to the 5710. They were all black for some reason. I finished seeding yesterday so I won’t have anymore calibration stuff till this fall maybe. Considering setting up my new Bourgault 9200 to band both nh3 and granular, so I can band sulphur and potash in the same pass as nh3. So when I seed all I have in the tank is phos and seed, reducing seed toxicity and increasing acres per fill
So fun fact. Potash in Canada is not naturally pink. It's dyed for the North American and Chinese markets. This differentiates it from 46-0-0 in blends. China wants it red because red is good luck. Otherwise its white. Source: I am a potash miner.
Great seeding content. I like the 7” spacing too. Better for weed competition. Love the tractor. They are still Great Pullers. What brand of Radial tires do you have on it ? Are you happy with them ?
Thank you! They are vredestein tires, so far I love them. They were very economical by modern standards, they were $2000 a tire when I ordered them last spring. Beats the heck out of the old bias ply tires they replaced
I have a 9280 and I bought bias tires because of price and it’s one of my largest regrets the last few years. I sure miss the lugless radials that I had before. I get stuck easier now believe it or not.
Pros of a tow between, minimal ruts behind the drill in wet conditions, no compaction of seed rows, utilizes the weight of the tank for added traction on the tractor, puts the tractor far ahead of the drill to help crawl out of wet areas, easier to back up, safer in hilly fields. Cons of a tow between: reduced visibility of the drill, more skill demanding to maneuver around obstacles or do the outside round. Pros of a tow behind: great visibility of tool bar, less skill demanding to maneuver around obstacles or do outside round. About it for pros of the tow behind
Thanks for the detailed response, I guess my thought would be better to reduce the compaction on the seedbed but that may be not as important if you have to roll afterwards I suppose.
Great video
Thank you sir
You're a natural at making videos. Hope you keep going. 👍
Thank you!! I really appreciate the encouragement!
Just subscribed. Looking forward to the 2870.
Much appreciate it! I’m looking forward to having it in the field, I also bought a 2290 with the full manual transmission rather than the partial powershift
The 2870 is up on video now!
Keep up the videos! Great!
Thank you very much!
Good luck seeding your 2024 crops

I’m only 4th generation my self, farm began in 1906. I will continue to make videos as often as I can! Thanks!
Good morning Arthur ☕☕☕
Good to see you here 👍

Thank you for the great video ❤️❤️
Thank you for the positive feedback and thank you for watching!
@@NorthEastSaskFarmer I look forward to your videos. My name is Hope btw.
Great Video .... i'm happy that i found your channel the days
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Hello! Fine seeding! Greetings from Portugal.
Thank you, and thank you for watching!
@@NorthEastSaskFarmer 👌
THANKS!
Great video. Looks like you got great moisture
Thank you! Yes, I couldn’t hardly ask for better seeding conditions than this. A little too much oat straw to contend with, but I think it will be okay
Great video...your commentary is easy to follow. Cheers
Thank you so much for the positive feedback !!
You are a excellent explainer.
@@barneyshort8227 thank you! With this being only my third half decent video, I sure appreciate the positive feedback
Air seeders are so much faster than the old dills.. wouldn't mind having one.. but we don't have the acres we used to.
With only a 38.5ft tool and 350bu tank I average 200-250 acres per day. But I band my nitrogen and sulphur in advance. With canola I can do 200 acres on a fill

Which monitor do you have?
@@NorthEastSaskFarmer I am not sure, would have to look. It’s a old one. Nothing fancy. Lol

Neat! I knew about the China detail, just didn’t know it was dyed
Cool. So is it dyed at the nine. I have hauled hot potash out of mine and it is pink. And Russian potash is a green in color. So is it dyed also.
Need lots a power for that unit. Probably has a 455 rocket !
Hahaha not likely! In all seriousness the 9150 has an L10 Cummins currently set at 320hp, the Peterbilt has an 11L paccar at 485hp
Great seeding content. I like the 7” spacing too. Better for weed competition. Love the tractor. They are still

@@lyndonjohnston6859 oh I’d love to have a 9180/9280. Very jealous. I grew up in a 9370 my father bought brand new, I miss it all the time
Great video, I farm in Nova Scotia, what is the advantage or disadvantage of wether the air cart is towed between or towed behind?
Pros of a tow between, minimal ruts behind the drill in wet conditions, no compaction of seed rows, utilizes the weight of the tank for added traction on the tractor, puts the tractor far ahead of the drill to help crawl out of wet areas, easier to back up, safer in hilly fields.

Thanks for the detailed response, I guess my thought would be better to reduce the compaction on the seedbed but that may be not as important if you have to roll afterwards I suppose.
I have been wondering if some of these seed and fertilizer carts are equipped with hydraulic drive axles.
I believe horsch has a cart with hydraulic driven axles to help get unstuck
another 2 months we will be cutting ours.
If I’m lucky I usually start swathing canola in late August or September
