Fueled & Ready! Let's Go! 

how far behind are the videos. do you have any rain forecasted, I do just north of you up in Canada this weekend.

A man and his dog, such a beautiful thing. Bob and Colby. Maybe that should be a book.

I love that pops has his dog with him all the time. So great to see.

Thank you so much for the bread I eat and the beer I drink. Your family feeds the world.

That eqpt looks huge, until you zoom way out and then see the immensity of what he has created. It is a beauty to behold !!

I got a tear as Dad helped Cobie up the stairs. I have an elderly dog and do what I can to just keep her alive and as active as she can be. They deserve this love in return for the love they've given us.

Praying you guys have a great year so you can get those houses built.

Seeing the two tractors planting together was awesome the world could learn a lesson with that footage and that is the older generation and the new generation can work together harmoniously if the given the opportunity

Really enjoyed the drone photography, with both the Big Bud and Case machines working close together. I know you guys want to get seed planted, but also know how important any moisture event is to your overall success. Keep on farming, gentlemen. Really appreciate the added time to document your adventures.

Fantastic drone footage again! CASE thought of everything, what an incredible machine! Good to see Mr. Bob & Kobe. Hope the rain was a good amount! ✝️

Glad to see you guys back to your Buds working. That's what drew most of us into this channel in the first place. Plenty of other channels with all new equipment.

Nice video with awesome drone footage. Wonderfull that you got rain, like we did after a long drought. We appriciate every drop, which i"m sure you do to. As an old farmer said: You hear it grow now. Thankfull for all blessings!

Been gone from farming vids for about a year after my dad died in a swather accident. Came back to a great vid from you fellow Montanans. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there!

Hope you all never have to get rid of your big buds they are so iconic and great looking.

Love the video keep them coming!!! God bless you and your family this planting season

Super great drone footage! Especially the in sequence planting! Choreography was amazing...two humongous planting tractors in perfect harmony...

It's amazing how far tractors have come over the years. That case is absolutely amazing. Hope the rain doesn't stay. All the best. 👌

I had my brothers 8.320 autocommand new Holland for a few days, those newer tractors are nice but I still enjoy driving my paid for 7230 magnum 👍

I feel like I learn something new every time I watch one of your videos. Keep it up guys, you're doing great!

That is the best description I've ever heard on the DEF system. It's another complication, but increases efficiency, at a cost, but savings in the long run, hopefully with a better environmental outcome.

The drone footage of the Case and Bud together was stunning!! Shows the enormity of the country you call home. Sad the Case is out of hours but always enjoy seeing the Buds in the field. Praying for a good season for you and rest of our farmers. God Bless!

Always enjoy your videos. The drone shot at the end with the 2 tractors was awesome!!

I enjoyed the longer video. The shot of the dual tractors from up high was gorgeous- that was a looong field. God bless. Happy to see some precipitation.

Awesome drone footage

19:28 "Of course I'm sleeping! If you don't let me drive the Bud, there's nothing else left to do for me..." 😉 Thanks a lot for the video! 😊👍🏻

The video from the drone is absolutely Awesome! Who knew farmers could be great videographers also? Well done!

Even with GPS and auto steer, I’m still amazed that you can skip a pass and yet leave the exact width of ground for following planter and not have any overlap or gaps. I enjoy high elevation drone footage that shows the straight lines of planting and the patch work quilt patterns.

The drone view of those two brutes working side by side is so cool! Glad to see you’re getting some much needed moisture.

Glad someone is getting rain we're dry down here in south Texas!! God Bless!!

Helluva video, and wow, nice transition in the end. You are certainly getting the skill level up on the edits! Have a great week, Welkers! I love the humongousness of the whole operation. Well done!

The CVX 540 Steiger is a beast. Its like a Monster Truck. Nice drone footage its amazing to see how the videos have developed.

As someone who lived on grandpas 42 acers with 12 dairy cows, I'm amazed at your land, machinery, and skill. Keep up the good work. America needs you.

Planting is my favorite thing about farming

Temperatures at Steiger I know your dad loves it so nice to see Kobe riding with your Dad that's great hope you guys get some rain good luck this year

Nick you do an amazing job on editing your videos. Montana is so beautiful. You guys are amazing. Love the machines working together. Praying for rain...and a bumper crop.

i pray you guys will have a good yeild this year to survive brandon much love and respect for all the farmers

I have never seen a better description of the tractor operation. Thank you!

I love watching 2 tractors going and the precision when the outside is ahead and the gap is perfect. I wish you guys could keep the Steiger. Can't wait to see Leg Arms start building his house.

Awesome Video. Amazing to watch 140 feet wide seeding. God Bless You All...

Love these machines, I drive a Case Steiger 600 HD with a scoop here in Australia and love the thing!

Thank you for another great video. The drone shots at the end were amazing, 140’ drilling, sweet. Now if you found a 140’ corn head you could tear up the harvesting record book. Take care and God bless.

Hey nick, hope you guys get a good rain soon! We finished planting potatoes in Ontario, Canada today. Rain tonight, beer is cold, all is well

Unbelievable how things have changed with technology! Last unit I operated was a JD 8630 with 4, 12' JD drills planting wheat in NW Minnesota. A whole lot different needless to say. Great video!

I watch a lot of farm tubers like yourself Nick and I have to say that your editing skills and content are second to none. I sometimes wonder if you didn't miss your calling and you should have been in Hollywood. lol. Just kidding, we need you to farm because you're so good at it. Praying for a good crop for the Welker family and all farmers this year! God Bless and farm on!

Praying for good weather and later some rain for the crops. Sad to see the loaner go - I know you liked it. But I am happy to see the Big Bud back. Always loved what my kids said where 'monster tractors' when they where very young. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. Be safe - take care and God bless.

Thanks for the cab tour!! That was very interesting. Recalling my "first" tractor experience, I was befuddled figuring out the use of the clutch on a five speed tractor transmission!! Not at all like the manual transmission on my car!! LOL That was in 1962. Been some changes since then, from what I saw here, anyway. Thanks again for letting me come along.

It’s amazing to see this. Thank you for perseverance and hard work

Your drone footage is absolutely stunning. You truly capture the "Big Sky". The tutorial on the computers in the cab was amazing. They don't look quite so intimidating now.

Poor Ol’ Kobe 😌 he just loves being with his Daddy in tractors 🚜! You know 🤔 it’s Kobe who comes up with all of Bob’s “Dad Jokes” (sorry Bob for wrecking the secret 😹) he just lets him act like he thought of them ! 😏 ❤️ God Bless him! ❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸

Happy to see your fields being blessed with rain Nick!

Great Tractor!!!! In this world with our ridiculous fuel cots, efficiency is key.

Great video. Thank you for an excellent tour and explain of 540 cab.

While it might have been a biased explanation of exhaust treatment, it was eminently clear, concise and worth every second. Well Done Nick.

Great video guys keep up the great work glad you got the experience the stagger tractor with the basically automatic transmission in it but all good things have to come to an end when it's a demo but at least you got the experience anyway of that new tractor I'm glad Robert and Scott and Nick y'all got to drive it and even Kobe got to drive it

Good luck seeding your 2022 crops Welker Farms

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. The drone footage was once again just great. Love the Big overall picture with the flag flying and going across the field. It is what America and farming is all about. Tugs at the heart strings and brings the tears. Heartfelt thanks Welkers!!!!!!! Thanks for the rundown on the Steiger demo. Sounds like a great tractor. The automatic adjustments the tractor makes to engine and transmission is outstanding. Takes a lot of the hard work out of it and helps with fuel efficiency. Nice unit for sure. Glad you had it for a while. Thanks for the rundown. Looks like Colby like the demo also. Found his place in the cab. Pat on the head for Colby. Switching all the equipment over to the big bud took some time. Think you said four hours. Wow. I saw in a reply your acres total around 10,500. A lot to look after. My compliments to the Welker family operation. I saw in one of the short clips that leg arms home construction had started. Big job to look after. Hang in there with that project. All for now I guess. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

Wonderful Drone videos! Always fun to see.

As I watch these videos of you guys. I'm reminded of wheat harvest 95 when I was in Dutton Montana cutting. Geesh those fields were super long and went forever. Lol. We would station our trucks 3 to an end we would have 2 to 3 case combines just cranking out the wheat. So many yrs ago. And what's funny. I'd do it again.. I'm 56 now. Army vet of 17 yrs and as much as I loved being on deployments being in a wheat field cutting all day long and night sounds very appealing.... hint hints. Lol God bless you guys.. 🙏

Great job as always Nick. Case should really give you guys a sectional control new tank. We have the NH sectional tank and it is amazing. We don’t have as many big wide open fields so our sectional control really benefits us but you guys would love it. I would never go back, it’s that good. Love the videos! Cheers from Red Deer, about 500 miles north of you!

Love the aerial shots... Awesome.

Very good music for the segment at the front where y'all are planting. I'm big on the music used. New subscriber, binge watching to catch up. We see you are a family of faith, God bless your entire family and your successes. I'm also a big train guy watching trains at Flagstaff AZ Virtual Railfan web cams. We occasionally see grain trains from Sweetgrass. The DDA40X in my YT name was the largest diesel locomotive built for Union Pacific starting in 1969.

I wish you guys all the best. You guys are going to need an inch of rain per week for a month to get the soil receptive for more substantive water.

HEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYY BROTTTTTTHERS! been a bit since I checked in on you...anyways, praying for a blessed farming season and a bountiful yield...God Bless from Texas!!!

If it wasn"t so expensive, that big Case / IH would be a keeper.

What great group of business men and their family farm! Enjoy watching you all!

Hopefully this cold front has just water, and not the stuff the weatherman says it's gonna have. Praying for a productive year and fair prices

The mhf has been used in grape harvesters running a very similar system in the 9060L braud. Is very cool to see it coming into other equipment through the cnh range

Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!!

I have a CVT on my 225 Magnum and absolutely love it. And yes, jumping back and forth from the powershift transmission tractors to the CVT takes a bit of brain thinking. Wakes you up when you just let off the clutch on the PS tractor because you forgot it wasn't the CVT... :)

Good to see you guys getting some rain up there.. we've got plenty of it here in Ohio...

Good luck with your crops this season !

Thanks for your great videos . It's always good to see a family working together to get the crops seeded. The CVT transmission sounds amazing to have . Would you prefer a track or a wheeled type of the same tractor ? Great video hope you have a wonderful harvest

I think I saw that Steiger when it showed up in California. It looked as happy as our cows and like it was just recovering from frostbite! Lol

Glad to see everything is going well. Nice to see those Big Red tractors working.

Glad you guys are getting some moisture. Hope you get some on Friday to.

Thanks guy's...God Bless y'all's.🙏‍✝️...See y'all next time👍‍.....Shoe🇺🇸

Man the looks and comfort in those new cabs 😍

It is nice to see the difference in our opinions on the new tractor. Can't decide if the tractor is lucky or unlucky going to Californication. But if I did not need to pay for things and did not leave the farm I think california would be OK. Stay safe and healthy.

The aerial shots were really neat to see.

So glad you received the requisite rain/moisture.

Its amazing how accurate the GPS guidance is.

Hope you guys get inches of rain and have a wet summer . A good crop would help everyone

That was so impressive when you backed the BIG BUD up to the cart!

Wow, that Steiger has A LOT more fancy bells and whistles compared to your Big Buds, farming equipment has come quite a long way compared to where it was 30 to 40 years ago! 😲

Moving from the tractor to the seed truck is like going from a Lexus to a Model T.

Love the nitty and gritty technical stuff!

Section Control is really nice i was spreading fertilyser the Last few days and it has section Control and it makes everything so easy

Hello Fellows, CVX 540 Steiger was nice to use while it lasted, maybe in the not so distant future you will have a Bumper Crop then you may add one New CVX 540 Steiger to your fleet, Bob I just love you & Kobe, you both are the Stars of the Welker Family, Nick & Scott, are great to, Nick explains the modern systems very well, Scott well he fixes them problems that need fixing, so as whole what a Family Team, Bob I believe you will get that New CVX 540, I think being the Elder of the Welker Team you deserve a little Luxury for you & Kobe , one can dream, but if you don't dream the dream it wont come true, but I think your Dream for a CVX540 Steiger will come true, Regards & Best Wishes , Trevor.W.Bacelli.

If you want to help kill some of the noise on the big buds look into a product made by DEI called boom mat. They use it extensively in automotive applications with great results.

You and mike Mitchell’s best farm videos

As always your. Videos are very interesting. Thank You and your family

Happy Memorial Day Bob and to the rest of your family.

Amazing the technology in the new tractors. Way different from the tractors I grew up with. When J I Case out with the 70 series with the power shift transmission which was totally awesome and so much nicer than the 930's and the Egging cabs.

incredible technologies! farming sure has come a long way!

16:25 I think you ran over the post that the Leg Arms left to show how much space it needs :D

Nice case. Mutch cooler than the tracked one you had last year 😁👍 keep the faith boys// SWEDEN 🇸🇪🇸🇪

I just said a little prayer asking that you get blessed with a good crop.

Please talk to the engine manufacturer about running range, as for instance Cummins X15 will make power down at 1300 rpm, but you will find the liners starting to move in the block, if you habitually run it there, under heavy load.😱Bad things happening, but, running at +1500 rpm they live a long time, use a bit more fuel, but less stress on the block deck and mid liner support ledges in the block. Best wishes all

I think you got it wrong on the exhaust gas recirculation. I was taught that EGR was introduced to reduce oxides of nitrogen which were being made by the heat of the combustion scorching the nitrogen. Recirculating a tiny part of the exhaust stream COOLS the flame and takes some of the stress off other engine components as well as reducing a pollutant that is a danger to living things.

Great video! Really enjoyed it!!
