#Farm #Illinois #Fall #Harvest #FarmingSimulator22
Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

30:42 even though that s670 is a decade old, it's still an impressive looking machine. There are a lot of smaller farms that only dream of having a combine like that. And I think your spot on with the 500 hour mark telling you whether you're going to have a machine that lasts 20 years, or it's time to get rid of it. I guess that 500 hours on a tractor or combined is about equivalent to 20,000 mi on a car or truck. If they've been maintained well, I would think that any problems would show up by then. Obviously, if you've got farms that only keep a combine for a year or two and don't really do any maintenance, then it's a roll of the dice.

Train guy here. Firstly thanks for all the other trains in the previous videos. Thanks much for the one here as the Union Pacific is my favorite railroad! Watching the rest of the video to see what was up with the 1100. God bless your family. Looking forward to the corn harvest.

Andy, thanks for the great coverage of harvest. It's been enjoyable as heck to watch as you and your family get things done. If I take one thing out of this harvest overall(based on watching several Ag channels) it's this. If I owned a farm that was big enough for multiple machines, there's zero chance I'd be loyal to one brand. There's a huge operation down the road from me and that family runs every color out there. They've set records of the number of bushels harvested in a 24 period with one combine. I won't mention their name because I don't have permission to. I think the best plan (looking in from the outside) is to have a nice mix of equipment. Hopefully it all comes from good dealers with strong service as well. I've seen too many John Deere issues this harvest across the channels I watch. That's just me though, an old, retired grain and options trader who never owned a farm. LOL

Nice part of doing the winter wheat with beans is it spreads out the harvest and risk

@Melting_Fireman 7 часов назад

Brown Family Farms or Hartung can probably attest to that. Think they're about the only two farmtubers that I see doing double crop winter wheat after soybeans. I've never farmed that way in ND & here in Arizona it's multiple crops on a field. September they start growing winter lettuce and veggies and then they go to cotton or wheat but hay goes year round here in Southern parts of Arizona.

@EvanC8 7 часов назад

@@Melting_Fireman border view farms does it as well and they are pretty successful. You definitely need precipitation and or snow. Irrigation is even better to do this otherwise it’s not a great idea to do double cropping. We grow winter wheat but we don’t double crop cause we spread and work in multiple passes of manure. So there’s no time to seed anything after we are done. We love getting a lot of manure applied to our land.

I was taken a back for a moment seeing Marty wearing a hoodie that wasn’t red! I wasn’t sure it was him! It doesn’t matter how many hours Andy. They all have problems that can strike at any time. Lost an engine in our first baler cotton stripper with 300hrs. It was a known problem with water pump. Things happen! Trust me I know plenty about oil field shenanigans living I west Texas.I’ll tell you a little trick if you know you have a mud pit from an old oil well that’s salted the ground, or they didn’t operate the topsoil when trenching. Plant barley as a cover and let someone cut and bale it. Barley pulls salt out. Takes a couple of years but it works.

Larsons dropped an engine with 320 hours on it. They finally put a video out on it. Dougo posted about it on IG a few weeks ago. 🤦🏼

I know you guys know you system better than me. But it looks like a way to haul some fuel would be very produtive. Good video.

@cozdiver 6 часов назад

OMG did you see the Larson's JD Combine video where the engine broke a connecting rod and shot it out the side of the block? And to answer your question, although my experience is with diesel generators, we never had a problem with one after 1k hours. That's over 20 gens over 40 years!

@GhostRider-dp2tc 6 часов назад

Roughly 350 engine hours on that unit....Made a really pretty hole when the rod cut the block

WC Indiana beans on high ground made 66-68, low ground 80-84. Another rain or two in August would have made a big difference, 1.2" from July 16 to now. the low yielding fields were harvested at 8% moisture.

@xj1716 Час назад

I like to think that all farmers / people are good natured, but from some of what other farm tubers i've watched have said / experienced, it seems like a lot of farmers are very jealous people. I just don't understand how that giant piece of iron had gotten in the middle of your field. After how many years of tillage and other things? I just wonder if the jealous neighbor threw it in your field. Hope not... Glad you have ingestion insurance. Is that something they only offer on a new / In warranty combine? Once again, we thank you for being one of the most well spoken and detailed farm tubers out there. You explain everything with great detail and make it funny all the same. I wish you and your family a bountiful remainder of your harvest. 😃🌽🚜

Question one of the farmers on vids was talking about row widths. He said they run a wider row because of the white mold that sets in the tighter rows. He stated that the wind and heat keep this mold down or dead. Because the white mold kills the nutrients and makes the soybean smaller. LET me state this ( I GREW UP ON HAY FARM) we did not own the farm my uncle did. I just did as I was told.

Larson farms, have an x9 combine 1yr old 380 engine hours. Engine just blew up spit number 1 cylinder right out the block. Check out their podcast

not sure what size unnit it is but larson's had a combine shit the rods out the side of it with some where around that 300 engine hrs mark

Have you guys not considered any strategies with blending off beans or rehydrating with a moisture sensor and fan system? :)

@Melting_Fireman 7 часов назад

Whats the term for the cab bean sensors, beanies? 😂 So stealing parts off the broken machine thats yours to fix the one youre renting that used to be your in-laws, is like robbing Peter to pay Paul 😅

@volvojohn9036 7 часов назад

I believe "Bales Farms" (on RU-vid) actually has a machine that adds moisture to hay as it's being baled. (Arizona being so dry). I'm sure you've explained it before but why can't you do the same to beans?

@tompunch 5 часов назад

Andy, I'm curious to know if you've been keep track of the harvest for the Larson Farms channel. Specifically how one of their combines when down when it's engine destroyed itself. Any experience with that sort of thing in your circles? Curious to know how common or uncommon it might be and just how much of a blow that would be to an operation like yours.

@roblonsdale8927 5 часов назад

That would be a blow to any operation ...

@jembe1342 Час назад

I don’t think you’ll ever find a set machine hour that every kink has been worked out. It should be reasonable to expect at least 1000 engine hours before driveline issues when maintained to book spec.

@Cruisingthroughitall Минуту назад

On the topic of reliability - although the start up does give you an idea to quality from factory in the first few hundred hours, but it isn’t always quality it could be design. JD are not know for the engine and really entire drive train reliability/design/quality/efficiency.

How many acres of corn and beans did you have to harvest when you started?

@bzs187 7 часов назад

That field is stupidly far away. Compared to our furthest field is like 5-7 minutes.

@davedammitt7691 Час назад

I doubt that it would be easy to have three or four or five thousand contiguous acres of prime Midwest farmland, unless all that land was bought Pre-1990. Most of the families that have large acreage around other large farms either have family that farm them, or they rent them to other farmers.

Engine hours ?????Larson Farms in Minnesota , have a X9 ,360 hours second season , no. one cylinder knocked both sides of block out , Doug made the comment ,(along with a lot of unprintable words] ,, their 8820s had 8000 hrs. on when they got rid of them .Welcome to the NEW John Deere Corp. ,, ran by college educated children with computers ,,,,, OH I almost forgot , from Mexico

@jeramy2398 4 часа назад

Larsons have 2 S790s, not an x9. Farming fixing Fabricating threw a rod thru the block of a john deere reman engine without hardly an hours on in a 9560R a year ago, too. It happens just looks like a tough year on farmtubers combines this year

I hadn't thought of that, but that's a great question. Even the lowest of low-end cars has a charging port. Can't imagine that a $700,000 combine wouldn't have one.

I always told our (automotive) clients NEVER, EVER BUY THE NEW MODEL, WAIT UNTIL IT'S BEEN IN PRODUCTION 2.5 TO 3 YEARS. NEW always has issues. It doesn't matter Porsche, GM, Kia, Volvo, Ford. For the most part if it's going to break or have identifiable ongoing problems (Larson farms engine explosion S790) it will usually happen in the first 2.5 years.
