We finished harvesting 2023 earlage! We had to switch from using tractor and carts to using the dump wagon due to all the mud that we have.
Thanks for Watching!

Except for the mud, what a wonderful season to be in. When the cold sets in, time to start the fire in the stoves and fireplaces. Comfort foods and freshly baked goods (I'm making hamburger buns this morning), snowscapes and fall colors. What could be better? Blessings for a safe, warm and productive week.

We do not see corn grown in Alberta as is grown in the USA. We enjoy your videos showing the various family members. Keep on keeping on. Sanders is shifting like he had an excellent teacher. 😊

@wildbill5126 9 месяцев назад

I've been running up to Columbus OH. all week and I've been noticing that there's still alot of corn uncut, and was wondering about what you folks were doing with your corn sileage, And behold Rhonda puts up a video, perfect timing. So I guess the other corn fields I've been seeing is that it's not ready to be chopped yet. You folks have a Blessed weekend.

Sometimes when you can't get enough heat check the antifreeze level. I had that happen in a Freightliner before they put sensors to watch the water level. Just a thought. I don't know how new that truck is.

@MorganOtt-ne1qj 9 месяцев назад

There might be a valve on the heater line that can be opened to circulate water through the heater core. Even if the fan is not working, you get heat in the cab. Something to look for, maybe.

@michaelstewart8806 8 месяцев назад

The field's were a mess over here also. Farmers were running doubles and triples tires on tractors to pull wagons. A couple farmers were helping others with their tracked tractors and harvesters in some really bad fields. Too much rain this fall, made harvesting tougher. 👍 Looks like the tandem dump truck could use a little TLC for heat and the drivers window. 😬

Greetings from New Zealand … grew up on a sheep farm just out of Invercargill right down the very bottom ….put a pin on the world map you have in the house … Only found the channel recently and enjoy it … at that time was growing up (1950-70) we had two John Deere tractors … one was a 1928 model (32 horsepower) running on power kerosene the other was 1949 believe it was one the first to come out with electric starter

The problem of that not closing window can be solved by putting a wooden block under it, in the inside of the door.

@larrygeran6964 9 месяцев назад

Thank you Ronda, I enjoy your videos more than you know! I’d have to say watching Sanders drive that tandem as smooth as he did. Makes me think he might be the best driver I’ve seen in your videos. The confidence and smooth shifting is a hard thing to teach. He looks like a natural! McKenzie is a close second.

@acresofclayhomestead 9 месяцев назад

Sanders is good at driving! 😊

@jeffrosen8237 9 месяцев назад

But McKenzie can make the Jake brake talk!! She is not only good at it, it looks like she enjoys hearing that diesel bark! I was a little disappointed when she said they put some baffles on it. Farm kids are good at driving and on this farm it's all hands on deck. Sanders is doing very good at driving. Looks like he is getting good at shifting without a clutch.

@nealyerges8882 9 месяцев назад

Your right about standing water. I could plow through water OK but between water and drier ground was the issue where you could get stuck

@jennysfarmsweetfarm7726 9 месяцев назад

WOW,its so wet there! I'm in eastern KS and we are in a drought. It is so dry here. Harvest is almost over here. We still have about a little corn to get out and some milo to finish. Grateful for what we can harvest when the year was a hard farming year since so hot & dry here. Love your videos. God bless

@acresofclayhomestead 9 месяцев назад

Sorry to hear about the drought. Hope you have enough harvest to get you through!

@nealturner7463 9 месяцев назад

That's what I call a real mud hole. I think You needed runners on that wagon instead of wheels.

@patkelly7999 9 месяцев назад

Mighty job Everybody, to say that was a struggle would be an understatement, well done👌👍🙏🙂

@davidvogel6359 9 месяцев назад

well when you fed the deer, you get to eat them too. we got our first snow on the 29th of October mixed with rain so it didn't stick. had several nights below 0 so winter is here. is supposed to be 70 F. today. you probably are having to keep the grain cart pretty light to keep it from sinking into the mud. fun to watch Sanders packing with his tractor and the pup getting some loving. mud is not fun but drought is worse.

@acresofclayhomestead 9 месяцев назад

I agree! Drought would be much worse.

@MorganOtt-ne1qj 9 месяцев назад

It is!

@doncc6080 9 месяцев назад

That is crazy Ronda the field is tiled and it still retains so much moisture. Good to see you all got through the mud and finished. Surprised you will be cutting silage for the neighbor this late in the year.

@Jim-tj5lq 9 месяцев назад

Keeping the cows happy and they will keep your pockets happy with all the white stuff that fills the tiny tank. I call it white stuff cuz I'm lactose intolerant and when I'm in the grocery store I bypass that entire section. Keep moving forward and stay healthy

Another phase of the sloppy, muddy harvest done. Whew!!!

@Dennismelnychuk 9 месяцев назад

In 1985 I cut 2500 acres of canola with a 20ft swather on tracks and combined with a 760 4wheel drive combine. It took 3 years before we leveled out the feild and got a decent crop. 1992 we made ruts again with the 4 wheel drive combine but summer followed the next year to level it out. 1996 was once again a mess on half of our land and after 2006 I gave up cropping and put it all into hay mostly alfalfa and timothy with treefoil in the low spots and if it was wet at least the light equipment didn't rut it up as much. It's very heavy clay with strips and pockets of peatmoss

@charlietanner6211 9 месяцев назад

gonna be fun working up those ruts next spring

@bhensel100 9 месяцев назад

I remember the video when you purchased the New Holland corn head. I never realized that it was on the chopper thinking it was a Deere head. Should have known better since Deere heads are green. Great videos Ronda. Keep up the good work and happy that harvest season is almost over for you guys.

@underwaterdroneservices7292 9 месяцев назад

Hey, where's them there farmhands when the window and heat are broke? Actually, I wouldn't mind the cold but if the a/c doesn't work on the sweltering hot days with the sad choice of windows down and more flying dust or windows up and more swelter, that I would mind. Also, "I'll never say you're too close" is a very touching sentiment. If that is a true reflection of your life together then your lives must be pretty nice. Also, "probably", leaving the final decision to the cows, and Sanders straightening the walkie-talkie for the video were moments.

@acresofclayhomestead 9 месяцев назад

@CaryGuyer 9 месяцев назад

With as many years as you struggle with wet muddy conditions and getting stuck, have you considered putting on floaters?

@MillerFamilyFarms 9 месяцев назад

With all that weight you’ll still sink some. Also floaters are really expensive and ride rough. They don’t wear good on the road so you’ll just be replacing them too much. Honestly from what I’ve personally ran your better off with skinny duals, that’s my 2 cents

@farmboy5622 9 месяцев назад

I am glad you are finally finished with the mud farming. I was getting cold helping you get unstuck. (Ha!Ha!) Now I can go back inside and warm up. Oh wait,.....I am already inside my cozy apartment!!! Must be a psychological thing, that I was feeling cold. (Ha!Ha!)

@davidkimmel4216 9 месяцев назад

The corn might need some salt and a slight amount of butter.

@Joey966 9 месяцев назад

I bet Ethan is glad to get out of that swamp.

@johnhenderson299 9 месяцев назад

Field looks a little muddy glad you could get your corn off

@benjamincresswell3713 9 месяцев назад

Hi Ronda, I would like to offer a cheap way to really overcome the mud problem. Use a winch anchored to some piece of large machinery that can move to accommodate a straight line pull to a muddy area. It's going to be slow but it's bulletproof. You drag the cable to the stuck machine w/ a tractor or a Quad, hook on and pull finishing the row you were working. Kevin will know what to use as an anchor and a small gas powered winch w/ 100 feet or more of light duty cable should be all you need. You could always buy a tracked vehicle but it's expensive for such seldom use. ben/ michigan

@brendangolden3674 9 месяцев назад

Single axle under that cart and bigger gripped wheel on it would put weight on drawbar and be easier pulled

@bay9876 9 месяцев назад

Of all the corn heads out there, the New Holland chain drive is the most aggressive. Good to know if you got a lot of wind damaged corn laying flat out in the fields.

@joshbutterfass5251 9 месяцев назад

It also doesn’t help that it snowed there before you started harvesting the corn either plus it literally likes to rain before harvesting crops it’s an ongoing issue every year in my experience of being a farmers kid

@user-le3pe6tj1n 9 месяцев назад

that ealy you goyt snow in Denmark wii have lots of rain

@ajskab99 9 месяцев назад

Why not put the challenger on the dump wagon? I would think the duals would go through the mud better.

@bobkopf227 9 месяцев назад

With the corn leaves and stalks that dry is there really much nutritional value left for the cows?

@acresofclayhomestead 9 месяцев назад

Not in the leaves and stalks, but we aren't harvesting those, only the ears.

@ziauddin7948 9 месяцев назад

U R chopped corn silage is almost 95 % dry & has same % of dry matter & it will affect fermentation # the core of UR corn ears are red the other variety has white core # 👍🇵🇰
