It really surprises me seeing anhydrous being worked in the fields on the 23rd of February. At first I thought that Attica was near the Kentucky border. I checked the map and see that the town is a good ways north--colder country. It certainly is a rare opportunity working the fields and it's not even March yet. In any case , thanks for showing.
I wish more cover crop no till was out there for public consumption. I’d love to see you spend a week at a successful, thriving operation. Hell, I’d open my books for you Mike. We’re stuck in a rut it seems. Little changes take 30-40 years. You do a great job with your videos. Thank you.
The local coop had a tank explode. There was an older guy and a younger guy so were working together. There was only one tub. The older guy held the younger one in the tub. He died a few days later and the younger guy had years of skin grafts. But the older guy saved the younger guys life.
I used to custom apply Anhydrous and I had 1 drop hit my arm and created a large bubble that burned it but after some water it went away except for a little pain . That's the only time I got anything on me but the fumes are terrible as I didn't have a cab . Great Video Mike as you always share with me viewers
I was born and raised on our family farm near Brookston. About 40 miles northeast. You should look up Kelleyridge Farms there. A lot of interesting material including Kelley Engineering
A guy from a neighboring town died from anhydrous a few years ago. He was on the road and in a accident and ended up in the ditch downwind from the tank. Many years ago, a guy one year older than me was filling a tank and a line blew. He was next to it, ready to disconnect the fill hose after shutting off the fill pump. Froze his whole arm with third degree burns. He worked for the co-op.
The first time we work with this Ammonia it was done as a side dressing and there was a very small leak on the valve and my dad could not figure out for about day why all the leaves were turning brown its a wonder we did not all get killed that day
My Grandfather died at age 66 Born 1911. He died of Lukemia. Everyone else in the family no health issues and live into thier 90's. I remember him mixing chemicals and spraying. I rode with him once and that spray (Roundup?) was coming back onto us going up wind. This before all of the protective gear today. I often wonder if these chemicals killed him. Thinking yes.
🤣🤣🤣 we literally got 10 inches of snow last two days and below zero the next few days. Be awhile before we get in the field in south central Minnesota.
Hello, does anyone know of a farm or agency that is hiring two young Austrians with experience ? We are looking for a job and are flexible in terms of availability.
