You are a smart, helpful young man who is going to be Blessed by your continued family farming generation. You are learning many responsibilities and working on machinery gives you much credibility and self-worth that most people your age. Keep up the good work and videos!
The camera set up from 10:38 to 11:42 was brilliant. Classic use of the frame and using all parts of the space within the frame to show depth and action: the tractor moving through the frame, right to left, front to back, then running straight toward the viewer, then under the tractor then the sky. Eric - do you study this or just know it intuitively. Every video is a new revelation.
Filling silo was always one of my favorite jobs on the farm. It was just two of us, milk in the morning, chop haylage that was cut the day before, cut more for the next day, milk, bed. Wash rinse repeat. I miss farm life.
I really enjoy your videos. It helps people understand what all it takes to get that bottle of milk on their table. I would be willing to bet that 90% of the people in the US has no idea how much work, the range of skills, and equipment it takes to run a dairy farm. Not to mention, the hours you keep. Thank you for posting. Oh, and thank you for not putting a bunch music on your videos, just your voice and the natural sounds of your equipment. My daughter's in-laws farm. They raise strictly feed crops, corn, wheat, & beans. That was my first exposure to what it costs to farm. The cost of seed, fertilizer, the equipment, etc. Their family has farmed there since the 1800's. So, at least I have had a bit of exposure, but, your videos bring it even farther, again, thank you.
You have great video content. I keep waiting for you to add clips of your beautiful wife and baby. Family is part of farming. Thank you for always brightening my day.
You are so lucky living out there. I live in a boring city where houses are within feet of each other and they all look the same 🏡 Thanks Eric for another country moment!
Five cuttings of high quality alfalfa! The northern tier dairymen must be green with envy. Makes for some happy cows and good production numbers. Well done.
You made getting that flat tire off look easy. Farmers are stronger than they look. 😊I'm sure you and your Dad will both be happy to get your office finished. Enjoyed your content. 🇺🇸
Some artist work with oils, some artist work with water colors, some in clay or stone, but Eric, Eric is an artist that works with manure! Wait until you see the drone shots about mid-June. The dark green colors of the grass mixed in with the light green colors of the corn! Eric's canvas is measured in acres, his paintbrushes are planters and manure spreaders! And the best part about his art is that it's edible for the cows that make the milk that I drink by the gallon these days! Paint on Brother!
It’s nice to see how well you and your Father work together. You are very lucky to have such a wonderful relationship. Love to you and all your family! I’ll keep drinking my milk!!
I watch your video even if I don't understand your language.😄 I have been following you for a long time.😊 I want to be a modern dairy farmer(like a10th generation dairyman) 🇳🇪 Love from INDIA Gujrat🇳🇪
Always look forward to you videos. A break in my day. Mowing a forage crop looks very satisfying. Your mower in my yard would finish the cut before the tractor PTO fully engaged (LOL). good job
Nice alfalfa , like your videos you get right to the point and don't talk about a lot of nothing , keep them coming , very nice operation your family has ,nice to see a well kept farm .
The camera on the mower deck was pretty cool. right up front view of the cutting. You have great skills on the machine. Very impressive. Thanks for another great video.
your fields remind me of an orchestra - each one playing a specific, distinctive part that makes for a complete whole. As always you conduct with ease and capability. You make it look like fun.
Hi been watching your videos and I absolutely adore your farm and the way you and your dad work at absolutely fantastic I’m proud to be a Pennsylvanian with you because you show everybody the way that things should be done absolutely fantastic keep up the fantastic work even though I don’t know You I’m proud of you God bless stay healthy
thanks for making my day a little bit brighter... after a long day of "hard" work, coming home and watching you work really puts things in perspective of how easy i have it. THANK YOU!!!
Hey Dairyman, gotta say when "Manure" is in the title it reminds me of my childhood. Lived beside a dairy farm for a few years. Thanks for the continued content. Wishing the Family well!
my friends called that spreading sunshine. nice crop of alfalfa, were i am from our hay is only a few inches. cool to see different climates and the growing seasons.
Having a cold spring is not helping anyone, happy you all are getting it all in. Like the Subliminal Mt. Dew clip at the 5:56 mark, really had to watch for that one. Also liked the plug for Dr. Jeremiah on the radio.
I hope your parents realize what an awesome kid you are! I enjoy learning about farming and find it very interesting... I am disabled and live in an apartment... this year I am starting a container garden! Because I believe that the better I nourish the soil, the more amazing the vegies will be! My grandmother was a farmer so I try to learn about farming to get a sense of what her life was like... :-)
could you do a small video on the cows with the most personality? I lived next to a very small Angus beef farm ,when I mowed the orchards they would follow me the hang out during lunch....I found that lots had different personalities..Thanks
How about something of your personal life, like what do yo do on your days off and stuff, Also, would like to see how the milk is loaded and the process after the cows are milked. You are sure a hard worker and I enjoy your videos.
Pit empty? Never thought you would run out of manure. Nice picture of the big blue sky after you ran the camera over with the spreader. Thank you for that.
You should consider picking up a battery powered grease gun. Milwaukee and DeWalt both make pretty decent ones, uses the same batteries as your other Dewalt tools. It makes greasing so much easier and even has the power to push grease in difficult zerks. I guarentee you this. You wont regret it.
i love the timelapse you did while cutting the alfalfa... would love to see more timelapse footage of anything, everything you do is so interesting in comparison to my job... wish my work was as satisfying as yours, cheers from Utah!!!
On the mower, the second pto shaft ( closer to the mower) it looks like it’s shaking while your mowing, that means that shaft is bent and needs replaced
Waiting for Eric is say... "Hey, are you okay?" After his camera tripod was hit by the low hanging chain. It's a carryover from all the farming channels and a bit of humor too.
“Newer” models and replacement seats have them. My 1996 7800 has swivel and I put a new seat years ago in my 1976 8430 that does as well. It saves your neck but messes up your steering shoulder more. I don’t have any auto steer units, though.
You thought you screwed up the camera for a minute. Come running back, but you looked a little surprised it was still recording. Great video, how long will the smell linger after you fertilize a field?
