Planting Corn on the New Farm!
We're planting my only field of Corn! I wish I had more Corn, but for this year this is the only field. It's just how crop rotation worked out this year with so much buying/selling of land. We have a high/low management hybrid plot going in on this farm with Advanced Agriltyics. Basically, looking at how certain hybrids handle higher or lower management environments. (When it comes to High M stuff I'm just starting learning all of this stuff.)
Unfortunately, after planting, we got a ton of rain. Will definitely be replanting a few acres of this farm in the next video! Thanks for watching!

First Day of Planting & First Time Spraying!
Переглядів 68 тис.Місяць тому
It's the First Day of Plant24! We're planting soybeans in one of Spencer's and my fields. Spencer bought half of the farm last March, and I bought the other half in September. We cleared the fenceline and now combined the field all as one. I am spraying for the first time, so I have some help from our neighbor Mark using his mix station, and learning how to mix chem correctly. Really helps bein...

Spencer's giving some Alfalfa a shot this year! The guy is addicted to Hay. We got some Oats seeded with the help of a neighbor and then came back and seeded Alfalfa right over the top. We did about 13 Acres. The plan is to combine the oats in July and then bale the straw. Also got the sprayer figured out and ready to roll for plant24! Thanks for watching!

Young Farmer Harvests His First Crop!

Spencer got to harvest his first crop this year! We hauled the combine up 90 miles to harvest his farm and the neighbor's farm! I was fortunate enough to purchase the neighbor's farm, so next year, we'll be clearing the fence line and farming them as one. Spencer's crop ended up doing good for the conditions he had to work with this Spring. He did a lot of tree clearing this spring, and disking...

    I need to go back and see what I've missed. Ok so planted, sprayed 20 gallon of 32% (60ish #s N) and pre-emerge, then spread dry sulfur. Depending on the co-op and rate wanted could you have had them add in some thio-sol to the 32%? As long as you don't need roundup control you can do that also. I was a commercial applicator a few years back for a number of years and I sprayed almost all spring 28 & 32% with Thio-sol. If they'd give us back our higher sulfur diesel we would have some. (our sulfur was always yellow). The coop guy should have set that spreader for you based on #s wanted and the specific density of the sulfur loaded so ya your only issue should've been fighting the wind and the direction. Well and a co-ops usual lack of maintainence on those machines due to constant use.

    I know the tractor shuffle. My main/big tractor is a JD 8210. We have an old 4230, but it needs a lot of attention. That one stayed parked for this planting season. We're wanting another 8000 series JD, but that's gonna have to wait a couple years. This is our third year farming on our own, so our priorities are in different spots right now. We're hoping to have our 4230 and our sprayer fixed for next year. Fingers crossed

    Romans 10:9- If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. EPHESIANS 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” 1 John 1:8-10 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. The rapture is imminent! John 14:6 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
