4000 Acres Lost! (Harvest #6 of 2021)

[@alecfromminnenowhere2089]

I admire your positivity. Optimism is a great trait in a great Farmer.

[@benhall2146]

I do enjoy having your Dad in the videos

[@melwallenhorst3486]

I feel really sorry for all the farmers with trying to get a crop with the drought. Prayers go to each and every farmer in this drought of 2021. Farming is a tough business and makes it even harder in these conditions

[@imurhuckleberry7777]

Tony thank you for your continuing Faith. He's is good.🙏

[@steigerpower]

Reminds me of wheat farming in the outback of Australia, in dry seasons that we had endured so many.

[@timhansn362]

I would have left the tarp open. I would guess that wheat is super dry 10.5 moisture or less even a quarter of an inch of rain with the tarp open you would never know it.

[@JC-uq5gi]

Apologies Tony. I know you are a faithful man, so there's always a plan. Your attitudes are very steady and positive. Many blessings guys.

[@roberthakeman9822]

Farming is tough now adays, if it isn't the weather it's the price, you have to be spot on. About all you can do is try your best and have the faith. I enjoy your channel Tony as you and Collin remind me of when I worked for a farmer here in Nw Iowa and it was just him and I. And we had alot of livestock and went from 600 acres to 2500 acres in 3 years and we had 2 guys helping during planting and harvest, cuz I was in charge of the livestock and grinding feed at the home place. 2.5 ton grinder at over 100 loads a month. Keep the videos coming love them ! Can you get FF to go 5xl in your shirts ?

[@karriefalon7779]

hugs to your family tony, so so sad you work so hard and then loose so much crops. i only remember 2 years we had bad drought, was several years we lost 90% to hail.

[@Varrig]

Great time lapses! Hope next year is better for everyone. Take care and God bless!

[@ejharrop1416]

Crazy storm and you guys are so brave working with the nasty storm overhead. Thank you for all you do and yes God will provide so better days are always ahead. Take care and peace out

Almost as good as Andrew Camarata!

[@thomasvogelgesang667]

Sorry about your 4000 acres. That was incredible when you said it took 2 1/2 to fill a grain tank. God bless all of the farms, thanks for feeding us.

[@jandcco]

I see you got the big 2" rain --- 2 inches between drops, twice what we are getting in North Dakota

[@erickamekonapeper4007]

At 18:35 you can see the lightning goes up ⬆️ and connects to lightning in the Clouds 🌧 through the rain drops falling creating the pathway! 🙈 if you pause it at 18:35 and step through the frames one by one you can see the whole thing! ⚡️😏🖖🏼🇺🇸❤️

[@jimholty2274]

As i get older i just turn the lights on right away ,if you get done harvest early you are welcome to come and see corn silage harvest in sept or soybean and corn

[@CheddaChief]

Keep making the Food! Praying for the right amount of rain in the future...

[@johnfrancis7176]

We used to use those grasshoppers for fish bait!

[@bluecollar3119]

Finishing spring wheat harvest today starting durum next. Our spring wheat surprisingly had some 38 bushel to the acre now on some 16 to the bushel ground. SW ND

[@toddrachelherbrand1823]

As usual fantastic video thank you your positivity is a true blessing

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Tony and Colin also your Dad Tony

[@jeanlouisbinchet4797]

Bonjour, vraiment une triste année pour vous, tout ce travail qui n'est pas récompensé,il faut avoir la foi pour continuer et avoir de meilleures années🙏

[@SwitchRod]

God is good indeed. Thank you for sharing your Faith.

[@DUCKDONKEY]

Appreciate your outlook on life! Thanks for the content🙏

[@jeffgregory5076]

The drought really hit you all hard here in Tennessee we averaged right at 70 bushels per acre.

[@michaeldennis69]

Nice. Wow, wow, wow... 2.5 hrs to fill the grain tank

[@bobthomas9525]

You could fatten out a lot of chickens on all those grass hoppers

[@somersfarm1921]

Sorry to hear about how poor the yields are for all you guys out in Montana this yr. Between the drought and hail, there is barely enough to justify the expense of harvesting the crops. We've had some bad droughts here in the Midwest, 83 and 88 were really bad, but I can't even begin to imagine running the combine thru a crop yielding 5 to 10 bushels an acre. As long as your faith is strong, the good Lord has a way of always providing your needs though.

[@tommygustavsson6990]

I who'd like to drive that combine. The first combine was a Dechentreiter which I pulled with a Mccormick w6 1957, then about 1964 I drove a volvo 350 and pulled a BT66 combine

[@RichAngus100]

Amazing video Tony great work. So many years need to be invested in a farm to survive and grow. You have tons of class!

[@JC-uq5gi]

Class describes them well. That's forged by many quality generations, through many varied hardships. It shows. Grace in the face of adversity is too far few and in between. Faith and persistence are paramount in building character. It's not a coincidence that our friendly Montana YTers possess it in spades. It's definitely more difficult to scratch out a living up here.

[@lelandbrendle8564]

We had the plague of grasshoppers last year here in West Texas. This year they are not quite as bad. They can take out whole crops.

[@mackXDM]

Watching this video standing on my deck in North Central North Dakota, looking at the burned up dandelions in my yard, yep its dry.

[@morriswomack9952]

Nature can be a cruel partner... always be thankful and hold to your faith..

[@tomcox4842]

Thanks for doing what you do. 🙏

[@cozdiver]

Aw man that sad. There is nothing sadder than a farmer having to plow in their fields.

[@rickdewitt600]

Like that closing comment. That's the way it is, its over. Best.

[@hughstephenson2957]

We played the light game in semi trucks too. I had exceptional night vision so won almost everytime

[@williamuskoski1385]

People are to chicken to play it anymore 😂😂

Good attitude, Tony. Lord willing, there will be another year.

[@ronaldluckie2834]

I saw all the rocks you dropped. Did you pick them up?

[@koolman2021]

Awesome video thanks for sharing 💯👍

[@davidaspinall496]

Excellent ...

[@hughstephenson2957]

Sounds like here in NE Wyoming. Ranchers are selling (giving away) cows cause the hay prices have tripled..

[@alexmikhael5061]

make sure you contact your local FFA contacts to make giarentee all those kiddo's critters are lovingly sutffed into a deep freezers and then stuffed into hungry mouths!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wait.. yea that works...

[@andrewstich7117]

You live by Fort Peck thanks for the video

[@budlvr]

Tony; I saw both you and the Welkers installed the 5 Fingers on your combine heads; I assume their working as advertised, but how are they doing as far as DURABILITY (esp with the rocks and low heights)?? Really liked the shot of the auger filling the combine; never saw that before!

[@FastAgMontana]

They have been flawless so far!

[@alexmikhael5061]

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEEH *I* would have a FLASHLIGHT on a SWITCH and ZIPTIED TO THE.... ummmmm shhhhhh woah.... thatzza sneeky sketchy stuff bro! yea *I* KNO!@! where it come from?? LOL

Hope yall had insurance on revenue lost! For us small grain insurance sucks

[@glennspreeman1634]

so sad to see you guys chasing such a poor crop. Have to give kudo's for your attitudes!!

[@scottfrazier131]

Do you guys pick the rocks up and take them out of the field after emptying the rock traps? Seems like you would just hit them again next year if not. Always just see you throw them on the ground.

[@georgedavidson7986]

I thought the same thing

[@robertbradford7892]

In the time lapse of the grain Hopper you can see variation in the color of the grain what causes that? thanks for the video.

[@randallharmsen5802]

I think he went through a weedy patch in the field, thus more green in the tank.

[@FastAgMontana]

Green wheat on one end of the field. We were cutting it a bit at a time to mix it off with dry wheat.

[@randallharmsen5802]

@@FastAgMontana ah yes that makes total sense. Thanks Tony.

[@timwright7087]

hard to like a post like this ..tough year

[@carve164]

Man that's tough. But thankful you are getting something. So I'm guessing based on what you said at the end you don't do winter wheat?

[@FastAgMontana]

We will if it rains enough

[@two-strokesmoke7289]

Those grasshoppers look like small birds.......maybe bigger??

[@ja5onl6]

Tony since your done harvest early are you considering deep ripping/soil building to collect extra moisture this winter ( providing you get moisture this winter)?

[@two-strokesmoke7289]

Is the protein numbers higher this year?? (because of dry conditions)

[@cowboyhat1601]

How often does equipment get struck by lightning out on that wide open ground?

If you use 0000 steel wool to clean your windows you will find they stay cleaner a lot longer..

[@carlleroy5952]

He's our provider

[@bigguydiy2184]

Evert have the fear your combine will be struck by lightning? Over here, in CT, we have to avoid being under trees. This year has been bad for lightning strikes in our town being heavily treed.

[@jameswilliams-fr2tp]

Hey Tony why do guys cut not with the rows just wondering

[@gavinperry7237]

Why are you unloading into the grain cart which is parked directly beside the grain truck rather than directly into the grain truck while Colin in away ?

[@FastAgMontana]

We are using the cart scale to weigh all the grain.

[@michaelolenick4078]

How much does crop insurance help you this year? Like on a normal year you would get blank $ per bushel. But this year you can't be getting the full amount to make up the difference, maybe a good Percentage?

[@karriefalon7779]

full moon lights were more fun no one knew where any one was lol it was so fun

[@robinhill9414]

Why so many grass hoppers and no foliage. We never see that .

[@randydutka9302]

Never seen anyone storm chase with combines gd video

[@chrisbeam9342]

Having Fath goes a long way in farming

[@hughstephenson2957]

I listen to Northern Ag Network and the grain commodities are through the roof due to the harvest.. 🥺🥺🥺

[@JC-uq5gi]

Tony's main, hay customer's- father(lol) has one of the most iconic ag report voices in the world. Remember him? Good guy. I knew Travis way before he was a national FFA officer. I spent a few hours in the loft of Billings Livestock Auction listening to the report live while it was beamed into the stratosphere for farmers from Idaho to Western Minnesota. Southern Saskatchewan to southern Wyoming. Small world. Better times.

[@Dave-xy2xo]

Do you have change the settings on your combine due to the low yields?

[@allritecoach6357]

Any thought of rolling wheat/durum in years with a dry spring?

[@davelawton7457]

Do you always have the grasshoppers that bad?

[@johnbell6956]

It always sucks when you plan everything correctly, follow through with the plan , put in months of hard work and finally get kicked in the a$$ by something you can not control. Good luck.

[@bjrnhjjakobsen2174]

Cool editing👏

4000 acres is 2 farms in the Illinois corn belt. I’m half a big shot with 3k lol. We had tornado’s yesterday, but dodged the bullet. It could be any of us taking a blow like that. It happens to us all.

[@chrisnelson414]

No grain bags this year?

[@FastAgMontana]

Nope. Don’t even need 3/4 of out bins.

[@markthomas7270]

Why do you just dump the rocks out of rock trap, down on the ground, and not take them to the edge of the field so you will not pick them up again? As the next time could cause major damage to the unit. Just asking, as out west here we always took the rocks to a rock pile or the edge of field. As then over time they are picked up mostly all of them then.

[@Oliver-kv2mm]

The edge of the field could be 1/4 mile away.

[@markthomas7270]

@@Oliver-kv2mm So sounds lazy to me! As I said we always packed the rocks out of our field's so that would not cause more break downs.
