Good morning Will. Harvest 2023 is now in the books. Finished yesterday afternoon. Things went very well and the corn did amazing. Evidently corn doesn’t need rain anymore to grow and to thrive. I know that now because it went over 4 months with no measurable rainfall.
Mr Will your commentary is spot on!! I so enjoy the humor and all you have going on!! Booger welded 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I would love to have aome of that natural fertilizer, but that would mean cows🤦🤦 I have been slacking but hope to do better in the future!! Congrats on thr subs, you have great content and a good channel!! I think it was around 300 when I came over and we started watching each others channel! I dont keeo up like I need too, but thoroughly enjoy every one I can make it too!! Yiu will be at 1k in no rime and them its game on for the content you bring. 😁😁 Thank you sir for abother great video and look fwd to seeing whats next!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🌽🌽🚜🚜👍👍😁😁😁😁
Thanks Nelson. See, you need cows. I know where I can get you a good deal on a couple Hereford heifers. I'll haul them down for you. I know how busy you are, don't worry about timely video watching. I just appreciate when anyone watches them. It seems like the videos are getting out there to more people now.
@@farawayfarm2520 Yes sir I would.almost.take you up on that to get to meet ya!!! 😁😁 That's how it works, your views are excellent, shorts too, so they are "pushing" them more!! Congrats my foesn, well deserved!!
I'm doing some shit throwing this weekend too, maybe Friday....Plan to come see you on Saturday with a fist full of dollars and get some hay.....Thanks Will.
We have the same problem anymore.. run out of 💩too soon... Used to run out of field, then hit the road to other fields.. and we have the neighbors adjoining 30 acres we covered too..
Maybe I need more cows. 🤣 Then I have to find more ground to grow more feed. Then I better get a bigger spreader to haul the manure over there. Then I'll have to have a 4wd loader tractor because I'll have to haul when it's not dry. This sounds expensive. 😳
I didn't have many rock problems this year. Only one really impressive one that I had no idea where it came from. The little ones you don't even notice unless they happen to hit you in the ear. 🤣
That is satisfying. The sound of the 50 and manure flying. I like seeing recycled feed spread after the cows are done with it 💩. Seems like the right way to run a farm. I had the same spreader but destroyed the gearbox. Too many rocks. The 2520 sounds very smooth. Low hours?
2520 reads about 8900 hrs. By some of the discolored numbers on the hour meter I would guess it might have rolled around once and be 18900. It spent most of it's life on a dairy farm South of Rice Lake but other than that I don't know much about it. It was a spring trade in at Lulich in 2021. I'm sure the engine has had work and it had a fairly new looking rebuilt injection pump when I bought it. I definitely think Farms should have cows to recycle nutrients.
Spreading was almost as fun as plowing. Seems to me someone recommended your videos about 400 subscribers ago. Trying to remember. Maybe Ed ? Thank you Will.
I do like spreading. Turning dirt is more fun though. Now I'm trying to remember who it might have been. I've had a few kind mentions of my channel by people that I know we both watch. Do you remember how many subscribers I had when you started watching? My first mention that I know of was from Alan at Trinity Dairy when I had about 70. I think I had about 10 videos then. Most of my subscribers then where people I knew and guys who came over from Rick's.
@@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin Indeed you have. I'm going to head over to your place now. My headphones appear to have kicked the bucket. My wife just made a comment about trying to watch TV and listen to tractors at the same time. I was trying to watch Pinesedge chop corn. 🤷♂️
Is the spreader apron ratchet drive Will? I'm wondering cause there was pieces of several spreaders here and I know one was like yours. Your 2520 looks small compared to my neighbors but I get it and their 3020 confused all the time🤣
It is a ratchet drive. The spreader is a Model 33. The hood on a 2520 sits 2 1/2 inches lower because of the smaller Dubuque engine than a 3020. Other than that there isn't much difference. The back half is exactly the same. Thanks. 🚜🙂
I wouldn't say no to another two cylinder but I don't know about with a loader. I ran Grandpa's 620 with a Stanhoist loader and a trip bucket enough to know that a foot clutch and modern hydraulics are a lot easier on a guy. The 50 actually came with a loader on it. I immediately removed it. It's been sitting for 16 years. I gave it to my Uncle this summer because he was having hydraulic issues with his.
No, No, No, the transmission on the two cylinders are extremely slow, and hard to shift. The 20 series have great syncro-range transmissions, that you can shift well before you even stop. We had both and me and my six brothers all fought to drive the 4010 instead of the 520 or 730 put puts.
