Winding Down Corn Silage Harvest 

Heh, loved the unexpected South Park reference! And naw, I never get bored with your chopping videos.

Another great video! Thanks!

Those full loads make the blower tractor grunt a little when you first kick it on, I bet. Good job mike

Nice mike 🚜👍😁

Nice work!

Glad the silo will be full this year!

You really made me. Nervous every time you climbed up top. Good luck 👍

That's a lot of weight when packed in wagons like that. Better you then me if you get a flat. We chop on a lot more hills. And haul on rds. I would never load them that full. Have a good one mike. Looking forward to the rest of harvest

thanks for all the videos Mike they brings back memories when used to farm back 5 years ago

Love your family farm videos always positive and peaceful

Great Video Mike. I feel like i have only been following you for a short time! puting silage into the towers is new for me, i assume that the natural compaction preserves the silage and hence why you chop some and come back later and add more, thanks for sharing

Ahh, upright silo's🤬. I always ran the chopper, but I also had to climb the outside to unplug the pipe or adjust the distributor (Dad didn't like the no cage ladder), so I often went back and forth. We had top unloaders, so then I had to fork them level. Don't miss that one bit. Great video, love the panorama views from the top!

That same snow we got was a tease

Your getting closer to a good place, having harvest complete. Our harvest completed with picking the hazlenuts (Filberts), their in the drier. Unfortunately in shell size was down this year, and market is weak, but orchard grass hay, especially in small squares, market is strong so we should be in descent shape. Hoping things keep running well! Nick, North West Farmer (Oregon)

Great video mmmkay?……. I love South Park. One step closer to being done for the season

Really enjoy watching your videos. They bring back to mind a lot of good memories of when I was younger and able to do things. Never did drive a tractor with a cab. I think they call those other ones "open station" now. That was a term never used when I was a kid, cause they were all out in the air, but it was a good time in my life... and I appreciate you reminding me of things that I've missed for so long. The cows will love all the feed. Harvest is going well and you'll appreciate not having to worry about running out of feed. Continued good luck and stay safe.

Another thumbs up video Mike. Get that silo filled and then fill it again. I'll be watching for the combine videos. You know I always remind you to be safe because things happen fast and without warning. Just the other day one of the farmers in our area was moving round bales one got away and rolled him over. Hurt him pretty bad. Just take that extra second or two to be safe

I"m also new to your channel

Look like you are having a good crop Please besafe climbing that solo cause I want to see many more videos.

Great awesome video , you should make a video on setting up shear bar and sharpening the knives on the 240 forage harvester

Send the drone up (U aught to name your drone) and let it look into the silo!

I used to climb our silos our biggest was only 50 ft tho

Mike, do you need me to send you a coffee mug with a cover? What, no travel mugs in upstate NY?

You are dedicated to making videos. To climb up to the top of the silo, set up the camera, climb back below the roof line and then be seen on camera popping up over the side. Lol. I definitely ain’t doing that twice. It did add a nice touch to the video though.

A little silage in the coffee isn't so bad. We got 4" of snow but it all melted so now we are heavy into fall tillage. Hopefully a little silage in coffee is the worst thing to happen for the rest of the harvest. Sure does sound windy at the top alright .

Don’t waste the coffee Mike, pick out the silage and finish it 😂

Your a hard worker, well done. How much do your silos hold sir?

Great video, I’m new to your channel and I love the 50/55 series Deere’s we do have them in the uk here but they are getting rearer and not many good ones left. I do wonder if they could start building them again how many people would buy them as if you look at new kit now they really are cheap horsepower. All the best from the uk.

when your father fills a wagon he does not waste any room

Are you late this year with crops maturing? Here in Western Iowa the harvest is getting close to winding up. Guys putting anhydrous on

Thanks for mentioning the dates. How did the boy do T or T? Did he get you enough candy? Keep up the good work!!

Soak some garlic cloves in a jar of non pasteurized honey for a week than a spoonful in the morning and a spoonful at night or as needed and it will clear your sinuses

Mike with that style silo do you have any issues with gas when you close it up and open it to top silo off. I know on top unload silo we had you had to keep blower running to push gas out before you got in to level it off after it settled

Have you'll hiredvany help since your brother went to work elsewhere, also any fish in river? thanks Bob

Where do you go to get your Dion corn head? I’m looking to get one for my 790 chopper

Why don't you take some time and get rid of all the weeds around your farm buildings? You can hardly see the machinery with all the overgrowth.
