I hear you about the old trucks. My Dad's cousin restored a Model A huckster 50 years ago. It was for sale in Central Illinois a few months ago, wish I had been able to get it
This is some of your best content Wes,love the visuals but I always love to hear you talk us through the video, brilliant stuff Wes thank you for this great video.
Wes at 6:28 when u were talking about the 8120 it was the 7930 that was on the video. Very impressive line up of machines you run and inspiring how u repair your own equipment and adapt to the jobs you do. Hats off to you wesley
Loved the video and drone footage Wes. Really good to see the country there. Has been pouring rain and flooding here on east coast Australia atm. Should be out working ground and planting corn but way too wet, much better off staying inside catching up on your videos. Cheers Ron
We have a '35 Chevy with duals and a wooden flat bed. It was an old grain truck, and still has the number written in grease crayon above the back window, and has a stamped brass tag with the number with the key. Flat out you can maybe get it going about 35-40 downhill!!!
Thanks for sharing very much enjoyed the video and the story time behind the scenes it made for entertaining video thanks again for your effort. I saw William a couple 3 videos back I can't believe how that boy has growin. An Instagram video that I enjoyed what's when you came home from Trucking and William met you at the door with his new shoes I got a big kick out of that thanks ldr
Beautiful farms and footage. Have the owners asked you to plow/till, harrow, fertilize and level the fields after you're done? They could provide the farm implements/fuel and you could provide the tractors, labor and skills. Fun to watch, thanks!
Those drone shots reminds me of farming simulator game. Looks great from that perspective. I sold my soybeans about 2 months ago for over $14.75 per bushel. Southern Ontario Canada.
kalmbach in shippensburg is a good mill/ grain elevator . We buy a lot of feed supplements from them. Right down the road another 35 miles is martins elevator. There grain pay prices are also competitive.
Rear dual tractor tires would make the roading between fields that they bale more difficult, due to extra width, rotational inertia etc. 15000 agricultural vehicle on public road accidents a year in the US. Tractor escort accident NC 2020 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YqXS58EGgSU.html Maybe fold up the baler platform and have a short Trailer attenuator on the rear of the baler (if they a legal and not over ag vehicle maximum length specs) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--5cvTpnA2d0.html
@@alanb9337 Not sure how to word this, and not trying to pick a fight. But farmers are just doing what they need to do to make a living, I realize in heavy populated area's that car traffic and farm traffic don't mix well. I've also noticed that in lot's of area's they have very narrow paved highways, Maybe they should never have been paved or they should have been 6' wider, Or maybe car travel should be reduced to 45 mph due to narrow road, That probably would reduce lots of traffic and accidents. Wish I had the answers. Only suggestions.
@@ollie-lk5dx No problem. Some places the farmers are taking the duals off and going to LSW tires. Maybe if OLF has wet fields every year in NC then a set of LSWs for the 8530 might work. (Farmer replaces duals with LSWs) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nfC7wfKvCfY.html
@@alanb9337 I have to ask do you farm? I agree that LSW tires make sense till you price them out, tire is expensive enough, But you need a new rim as well, so it get's real expensive real quick, And you have to remember that's a commercial . And I should add Trelleborg came out with that concept long before the LSW was introduced. Why should the farmer bear the burden because the state or what ever entity built such narrow roads without shoulders. Just my observation from 40 years in the industry
I’m shocked at how low the yields are back east as compared to pivot irrigated ground, you had stated in a previous video that you covered 7000 acres for only 15k bales given the bale wieghts likely averaged between 1200-1500lbs depending on moister, you average around 1.3-1.6 tons per acre. We average on our straw between 4-4.5 ton per acre same with our grain hay. In 2019 we baled 2000 acres of barley and twin wheat that averaged just over 4 ton our bales averaged between 1250-1300lbs as we can get our hay quite a bit dryer than you guys can back east I’m sure. We put down just under 13000 bales on just over 1/4 of the acerage. Most of the hay we bale is alfalfa and grass hay but occasionally we do a bit of grain hay. Even our alfalfa and grass hay produces 1.6-2.5 ton per acre per cutting though. I’m shocked that grain straw over there produces so little..
Not much you can do about it... if they're following right behind with a drill to plant beans well they're gonna rut it up too. Ideally you don't want to run on ground when it's that wet-- create a LOT of compaction and issues (particularly on clay soils) but the next time I see "ideal" conditions on a farm when you NEED to get the work done will be about the first time LOL:) Gotta get her done and sometimes that means making a bit of a mess. Later! OL J R :)
Need to get a kureg coffee maker the problem with ground vacuum pack is clock ⏰ is ticking once you open a bag even in a sealed container your opening/closing air. Grinding beans or just use the k-cups set your desired strength always fresh. Um not a Java fan but they make great hot chocolate. But the ground make good fertilizer for Azalea bushes my grandmother put her grounds on the ground let them absorb for her entire life come Easter full of blooms and was the healthiest plant. Prune some yes.
good notill planters will easily plant through wheat stubble and many farms has just as great yield doing that if there is a general focus on biological healthy soil.
Any videos you put up or good ones.. no matter what the content even if you are busting on the haters. Which I rather enjoy LOL.. but I know you got to be politically correct for these millennials and overthinkers
