I maybe 67, but I still love seeing what’s new in the farming business. I can remember when a three row chopper was the thing to get! Please do more of these, they are so fun to watch. Thank You! 😁
Great video Jan really enjoyed seeing the custom crews. Your buddies also did a good job on camera explaining what hey do. Thanks to you and the guys - great video
I enjoy the symmetry of the combining...amazing professionalism by everyone! And it still amazes me how much work, how many activities, how many heavy equipment vehicles there are all for what it produces: A nice tall glass of cold milk! Thank you!
Thanks Jan! Excellent video. Appreciate you taking your free time away from the farm to make more farming videos. Great respect for the incredible work contractor crews do with such professionalism. Thanks Cam, Alex, Connor and the entire Feitsma Services crew. Hope you get to make another video with them and get Herk on camera too.
Not a combine. Called a harvester or chopper where I’m from. The name combine derives from its combining four separate harvesting operations-reaping, threshing, gathering, and winnowing- to a single process.
Great episode awesome drone footage didn't know corn silage was so popular here. Amazing pile of corn silage, what would the dimensions and total capacity ?. That corn processing head equipment was epic no wonder it does such a complete job. The interview segment was very enjoyable you may have a future in Ag reporting, we won't mention it to your dad.
Jan, this is so nice to see. It makes me understand why our food can cost what it does. My parents had a family farm here in Maine way back in the 40s and 50s. I was born in 56 and they stopped farming before I remember any of it. My older siblings, the ones born in the late 30s and 40s, remember it well. I'm the 7th of 8 kids. I have pictures of my dad driving a steel wheeled tractor. If he was still alive, he'd be 110, he would be so amazed at the machinery today. He used to milk cows by hand and the milk truck would come every two days, as it was told to me.
Big beautiful fields of corn, saw no irrigation on that nice flat land. Very efficient workers chopping corn. Large farms in the background and looks like some pretty nice houses with them. Bravo to all the farmers.
KielstraKid - I’m 67 also and seeing the new equipment is amazing. However, the aspect most interesting is these people are you are featuring are your friends. If they were not your friends, it probably would not be as interesting. In other words, including your friends gives us a a more nuanced perspective into the life of THE KielstraKid! Happy trails!
Great video! Amazing how fast and how much is done in an hour. Then watching the other end where it’s mounded up for storage until needed boggles the mind.
First off Jan...anytime we Fans get to hang out with you and your Dad and Crew or with your sister on her channel is the Best, so whatever you got cooking on your Farm Menu, I'm quite sure your Fans will visually eat it up! This field Trip to hang out with a couple of your buddy's during their Silaging was great. I learned a ton and enjoyed the explanations from you and your pals! The Drones Shots were awesome too. You can seemingly fly that Bad Boy just about anywhere you see an opening! Appreciate this channel Jan and The SaskDutch Kid's Posse of Fans! Great comments and suggestions and questions! Cheers From Ohio and Keep Strutting!
The local guys here have a big Claas chopper and do a bunch of fields around my property. I pulled up next to the chopper at the stop light, and it took almost 2 lanes, and I felt small in my car compared to it. The corn they are chopping here in Western Colorado is probably above 10 feet tall. They pump nitrogen gas into the fields and irrigate, but it looks good. I should try and get some drone video of them when they chop the field below my house on the hill.
Great video as always! The fellow driving the harvester would be hearing, “ don’t take the long way down the row” from my dad. That meant don’t keep moving the steering wheel. The less movement the better. Great yield for as far north as you are I think. 👏👏👏
Those guys operate like a well-oiled machine, impressive. Thanks for sharing! Those guys are growing some pretty good corn for being north of Saskatoon! Have you talked Dad into trying some corn next year?
It was interesting to see the color change as they moved through the field. Some of it looked pretty dry, more like Sonne Farms put up this year. It ended up making a huge mound of silage for sure. I am guessing that was another dairy operation?
It's always enjoyable watching you folks do what you do. I love farmers.....you all are the backbone of our nations. If I had a channel videoing what "I" do every day.....well.....lol.....but maybe there would be a few out there who would enjoy watching old ladies herding 5 year olds, but I'm thinking not that many 😆
I enjoyed it think u so much it was cool I really love those machines they look so cool yes I think most of us yours would really love for you to give us more videos like this really enjoy watching it thank you for recording it for us
