It's a hot crop to harvest this year. Early planting as well as favorable moisture & weather conditions helped the region to pump out a record wheat crop.

We're a sugar beet farmin’ family in the Red River Valley of North Dakota!
Our farm specializes in growing sugar beets, hard red spring wheat, sunflowers, corn, soybeans, and various types of dry edible beans. The legacy currently consists of my dad, my uncle, my two older brothers, and I (Beet Farmin Mitch).
I am a 6th generation family farmer recently graduating with college degrees in both Agricultural Economics and Crop and Weed Sciences. Enjoy as I showcase our operations everyday work, grow as a young farmer, be a goofball, and walk out the most important thing to me. My love for King Jesus!
My hope is that you may be entertained and spurred on to grow in your passion and knowledge for all things agriculture!
Jak se máš! (Czech for "How are you?")

“Flat as a piece of lefse “!!! Yup, you are a son of the Red River Valley.

The Corn Farmers down in Alabama are mounting large plastic water tanks (200 gal?)on the from of the grain cart tractors with 12v pumps with 100' industrial 3/4 or 1" water hose with spray nozzle for FIRE PREVENTION in case a combine catches fire.

Glad you whipped the wheat harvest to a record , but now wishing you beat the beet harvest record. 👍👍👍

@beetfarminmitch 17 дней назад

It’s looking like it! Kind of a double edged sword though! If we produce too many in our coop we will have to leave a percentage.

@KobeG24 17 дней назад

I love the sounds those combine displays make - sounds like an old arcade game

@robinghunt 16 дней назад

So happy for you all to have such an amazing harvest. Pray that the wheat prices don’t collapse with the abundance but there’s little to be done about it. Still, take the blessings as they come. Love the inspirational message you’re providing, we all need reminders.

@jerrycraig3737 9 дней назад

I was surprised that you had only one combine going and only one truck. I am not a farmer but from out west, Alberta. When it combine time you see at least 10 working.

@farmboy5622 17 дней назад

Appreciate the scripture readings. Yeah, I remember getting plenty of nice meals in the field. Although, we did not have cabs like they do today. We had open-station tractors. So, we either sat in the pickup truck or under a shade tree to eat our meals. Sometimes, depending on what we were having, we would get things wrapped in aluminum foil, and set them somewhere on the engine to cook for a while. Got to be a pretty good cook. (Ha!Ha!)

@beetfarminmitch 17 дней назад

That’s true, having cabs is super nice. But I do miss the tailgate suppers on the edge of the field. We haven’t had a good one in a while, but I like to have one a year around the end of wheat harvest. Probably won’t happen this year due to the rain pressure and trying to get the crop off. Maybe during pintos!

Looking great harvest there Mitch thanks for feeding the USA and for putting out videos for us to watch.

Thank you Tom! Appreciate you!

@user-bd2ed2nx8p 17 дней назад

Glad you are getting records yields but the bad side is the liw prices most of the time on wheat

@beetfarminmitch 16 дней назад

This is true they are on the weaker end right now.

@StarrMan1961 16 дней назад

Hello from Michigan, looks like the Red River Valley would be a good place to visit.

@beetfarminmitch 16 дней назад

It is underrated if you love agriculture!

Great channel and content......maybe where the tree was down was that unharvested corner they were required to leave in the Old Testament in the book of Ruth!❤

@anzacday4141 5 дней назад

Mitch, Jsem v pořádku, děkuji. Just found your channel. No women in the current Legacy? But excellent Video. You have done well on the Academic side, however, with the rapid development in not only in the sciences of growing crows but in the advancement of IT and new technologies in farming equipment will need a concerted effort to keep ahead of the game.

@NickJones-n5y 10 дней назад

There’s being religious but this dude takes it too a whole other level. I wonder if they give a guy a heads up about it when they are looking for help? I would be more tired from constantly making sure I didn’t cuss than the long days.

@beetfarminmitch 10 дней назад

Haha, I’m all in indeed! Although you won’t hear me swear, I don’t mind if the guys I work with cuss. I take em as they are! We’ve gotta great crew.

Raa My dear friend, it is wonderful. I want to work and volunteer with you.

@scottkaercher1733 16 дней назад

Our wheat average was 135 bushel per acre and a couple fields was 150 bushels per acre then we planted double crop soybeans. Our agronomist is saying we're gonna average 150 on beans and 340 on corn.

@John-nc4bl 17 дней назад

BFM; thanks again for another excellent video of yours. Those 45 foot heads are a nice size. I was thinking that crop lifters would help greatly to lift that down crop up to the sickle. Google crop lifters if you are not familiar with them.

@beetfarminmitch 17 дней назад

We used to have them on a case 1010 header. I don’t think they make them for macdons but I could be wrong.

@stroln 16 дней назад

Mitch, I am guessing a lot of you views do not know what it means when you say "it's getting tough". Thanks for the video.

@beetfarminmitch 16 дней назад

Good point! It means the grain is running rough through the combine and not smoothly. It happens at the end of the day when the sun goes down. It rumbles more and can plug the machine easier.

@markr9997 11 дней назад

Great content thank you, just came across your channel today. I also love listening to the bible or podcasts in the tractor cab here in the UK, it’s a great way to keep your faith strong and centred on Jesus while doing your work :) God bless you brawd !

@jimholty2274 17 дней назад

Thanks for your witness, Do you have much trouble calibrating the 3 combines together for mapping?

@beetfarminmitch 16 дней назад

Great question! I have our GPS planting lines loaded into all the combines. I used AFS connect (Case software) to transfer them. We run the same lines but we have to remark every pass as they do not line up with each other perfectly. I think Case has some new software and whatnot for that but it’s not a big deal to remark for now.

@davebalch7817 16 дней назад

How many acres do you guys farm? I am from the East Coast, so everything’s pretty out here

@skydom1000 8 дней назад

Unless I missed it, what’s the explanation of the lodged wheat again?

@chesterwass6838 13 дней назад

Haha ur in the nice part of nd the flat and no rocks part 😅 I'm north of devils lake in the hills rocks and slough ground 😂

@beetfarminmitch 12 дней назад

Oh yeah! Rocks are about as rare as a stop sign out here! We have them but there’s not many 😂

@beetfarminmitch 12 дней назад

Also, I find it fascinating how much of Devils lake used to be farmland and is now flooded. Kind of wild.

@glg3478 6 дней назад

You guys farm much around Veseleyville,Voss area? I'm the guy you mentioned in your vid about the grain bin😂love the videos keep them coming

@XMan-ub8zf 14 дней назад

i missed it I reckon…how many bushel/acre?

@Ljw48 17 дней назад

Are you having any problems with falling numbers in your area? In the southern valley after our 2 inch plus rain it is a big problem

@beetfarminmitch 17 дней назад

No, we haven’t on our farm yet. Still have a few acres to go, it’s very common in our area though.

@John-nc4bl 17 дней назад

Mitch, if you don't mind me asking you, how many acres of wheat do you grow-? God bless.

I believe he's in the AFLC (Association of Free Lutheran Congregations). The church he shows in the intro is AFLC. He also had the AFLC hymnal on a bookshelf behind him in one of his videos.
