Mike, don't be sorry for the noise outside the cab. It comes through as music to me. Love the sound of a diesel running and fans blowing and pumps whining and hydraulics.
Mike your Greatest Asset is your Ashtyn, please be careful for her, it wont belong Ashtyn will give Birth to your first Child , I think its a Boy, Bless you both, try to be not so naughty , I know its hard for you, keep your Eye on your Ashtyn she will need you more soon, Great video, I never saw the Swathing before so its a first for us also, Cheers & Best Wishes , Trevor.W.Bacelli.

Very Very nice 👌 video learned a lot, I am from South Africa in this part of the world we plant canola in the Overberg area. I am from the Free State and here we plant mostly corn 🌽and oats. Mike keep up the great videos 📹 and have a nice day.

I used to love swathing, then we switched over to straight cutting canola. And i can confirm swathing in the rain, as long as it didn't rain too hard. I once swathed canola in a thunderstorm, was epic. Still miss that job.

I remember back in the 80s and 90s swathing canola in the rain. Could never swath cereals in the rain but with canola it works good. Canola cuts like butter wet or dry and you can actually go faster when raining/wet because it isn't as puffy and flows through the swather opening much better. I've never seen anyone swath canola without a roller though.
Mike buddy, you remind me of myself as a child so excited to run around the field chasing after the machines videoing or even just to watch them go round and round
There is one major advantage to swathing I suppose, especially a crop like that with a fair bit of weeds in it. And that would be that the weeds also dry out in the swath as the canola ripens, and goes through the combine easier and…

Seeing Ashtyn pregnant makes me feel so happy for you Mike. I can see her not stopping until she pops and even then she’ll be doing nappy changes in the cab whilst seeding next spring 🤣

Well Mike rain on those swather tracks make combining a nice adventure.For tracktion its good there is some stubble left to float on. Buy a bag of dry weather at de grocery store my grand parents woud say.See the video s comming Mike.Nice demo swather with 4 driven wheels is a good opportunity to learn the job? Just saying...Oh and that Alexa lady has some sticky fingers on the F5 button
i don't miss swathing.. combine all day and swath all night is for chumps.. now we don't have to worry every time it starts blowing over 50k whether our swaths are blowing.. straight cut yeilds better as well
Rolling a short crop like that won't do much...my canola is the same way. I have seen the odd time that rolled canola blew away worse than unrolled canola

Speaking from experience if you don't bite the bullet and make it a point to get back into shape you'll be this way for the rest of your life. Harsh but it is what it is.
hmmm...if you think your going to pickup those swaths with the pickup header for the Ideal, think again lol I know you have to wait for the swath to dry out and to compact it with a roller before it can enter the combine, we never swath anything except for grass on our farm
Hey Mike........Do you have the JD 9620R 640 HP Cummings Engine yet.............You do go for lots of HP.........and complain where there isn't enough. Well, there ya go. If I were you, I'd let Ashtyn do the demo. It's better if someone knows what their doing do things like that. Oh.......I wouldn't mess with her, pregnancy gives them special mood swings. One min. they are happy and smiling, next min. your laying on the ground. I have 3 kids..........I know what I'm talking about.
I just visited your website Mike. It says: "Mike is of the Mitchell fourth generation. He farms along side his two brothers, parents & their families." Where's Ashtyn? Time to do an update ;-)

Get you some Rain-X on that windshield! Why would you cut the green stuff that isn't ripe yet instead of the brown stuff that is borderline too ripe? Won't that just delay it and cause even more loss?

So is the Game Plan for you and Ashton to move up north and start your own branch of FHF? Just seems like a lot of extremely long commutes while you establish yourselves there. I can’t imagine the toll that takes on both yourselves and the equipment to run a few thousand acres that far away from home base.
i have seen a lot of this crop swath down and guys will have a roller behind them to kinda push down the swath in to the stubble to hold the crop from blowing away
Mike, life long Palouse Wa. Farmer told me, (after hearing grips about rain) "if it rains enough to grow weeds... you can afford to kill'em ". That excludes sprouting and spoiling crops?
It's hard to believe you and Ashtyn can be so cheerful with poor crops and the conditions you are working in. It just amazes me how you farmers can keep operating with such large losses. I hope you get insurance or government help to stay solvent. Good Luck
I've got a question Mike ... how long will the crops stay on the ground before being harvested ... I've got another question Mike ( sorry , I'm curious ) ... this year, crops were small ... this year, rain was tiny ... why not using stripper heads in front of the combine ( not talking about canola ) ... it would allow to keep snow in the fields ...
I was thinking the same why no roller hopefully wind stays under 30 km lol (never happens) I absolutely hate combining swaths vs straight cut combine productivity goes down around 50% picking up swaths but swathing is a necessary evil for harvest timing reasons on our farm as well.
@@techHmrk not in irrigated canola (heavy swaths) just doesn’t feed as smooth depending on conditions max speed is 4mph no matter what try any faster you will jam solid
You certainly don’t need HAMMY to pick up the sound of the rain beating on your windshield. Where was this moisture earlier in the season when actually needed ? 😂💦💦🎤💦💦🤣
Ya need to get a big 'ol Wishek disc, hook it behind that big Deere and knock those weeds in the head with good old steel. Nothing will escape a good discing.

except the billions of seeds you bury. which will germinate when conditions suit them. often many tears later. Did you ever wonder why so much chemical was used for many tears before continuous cropping became normal? My grandfathers plowed and disced everything. My father's generation onewayed and cultivated everything black evert other year. Weeds thrived!
You need Ol Nick and Antoine from South Saskatchewan Farmer to bring the old gear over Swathers, Ol Sassy Massey n Deeres, and the pull behind Combines.I like old school equipment still does what it needs to for them, its waaaay undersized for your operation but man they'd look good doing it.
Mike farms under Faith Hope Farms. The videos you see are a collection of his two brothers, his parents and his own farms and equipment. His wife also comes from a farm family and you see her parents farm occasionally. I would guess the swather they're using in this video is her parents as Mike stated he doesn't typically swath and they are in her parents area. The farm your seeing swathed is a newer piece of land acquired by Mike.
