Great video Mike, it takes people like myself in Bad health and many others in to another world for half an hour, thanks for for what you show us, it all helps. 👍❤️

"Agriculture is our wisest pursuit, because it will in the end contribute most to real wealth, good morals & happiness." The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a farmer. A good farmer is nothing more nor less than a handy man with a sense of humus.

Love seeing you two work together in the fields like this 😁 Plus I likr to see the seeding aswell, looks boring when I think about it but its so interesting to actualy watch it. Aannnd the more random videos you make the better, doesnt matter if its just some silly stuff you do, just love it 😅

-2 here just north of Edmonton. We don’t seed before May 1st. Had some late frost been burned a couple times. A wise old man told me... Seed in the dust your bins will bust. Seed when there’s frost you’ll double your cost.

[@aleksandarsvorcan1264]

In Serbia, 2,500 acres are worked by a small number of farmers, and this is done by a family of four with the largest tractor of 120 kw, and an arable land size of 10 acres on average.

[@ryanmullen4482]

I learned pretty quickly how much pressure was in those lines while they were up, pretty scary I was underneath it and the hose flew off and like you said about two pails of oil comes out faster than you’d ever think it could I got soaked half the drill got soaked and the pickup that was parked beside got a lot too. And just about got crushed by a few of those shanks

[@randydutka9302]

Here is a tip from my old case days if you bend cotter pin on both ears u have better chance of catching it before it falls out

[@elizabethliska5377]

Mike please put a large Canadian flag on the equipment you ri. The Larsens and Welkers do it. Make your fellow Canadians proud!!!!

[@briankingwelding4531]

Mike, I think in one of your future videos you need to explain/ define the saying "dry as a popcorn fart". I've tried explaining it to my wife for over a decade now but she still doesn't get it.

You could use a couple of inches rain!

[@nigelclats6970]

Why not grease and diesel last thing at night,finish 45mins earlier,grease all bearings and pivots when they are warm. 1.The bearings accept grease better when warm. 2.You can see any failures and know what needs fixing for the morning. 3.No smelly diesel on you the next morning. C'mon Mike,get with the programme. You always get a thumbs up here mate. Greetings from New Zealand.

On the question of soil temperature, if there are no broadleaf weeds growing the land is really cold.

[@jonludens4180]

Mike, What if you replaced those soft cotter keys with hard spring pins? They might not wear out as fast.

[@RoisinT2]

Would it be benefit to use some hot air blower for some time in front of those fans - on cold mornings like that you would get those hoses at least a bit warm first so they might not pop being so dang crisp.. ?

Even here in southern Manitoba it's too drie we mostly have it wet but this is the driest in a long time.

[@ATLS_gaming]

[@brodieallen2173]

How many acres/ hectares would you like to achieve per day Mike ? (Per seeder)

[@jacobl1657]

You can figure out an estimate pretty quick with the general formula. Width x speed/8.25 = theoretical acres/hour. Then take that and multiple it by an efficiency factor, probably like 60-70% depending on travel time and filling to get actual acres per hour. So 84*5/8.25 = 51 acres. 51*.70 = roughly 36 acres per hour per drill. If they seed for 12 hours that’s roughly 450 acres a day.

[@loganfry676]

AMD he farms 44,000 actes

[@brodieallen2173]

If they are running the drills 12hrs a day would it not be more efficient to have half as many drills running 2 shifts 24hrs day ?

[@catchhester]

@@brodieallen2173 until you get half the acres done because parts wear 2x faster... down time fixing/rebuilding when could be seeding is very costly.
