Awesome video love seeing how things are done in different countries guy stacking bales sure knows how to make a good stack job 👌

That's a lot of top soil hitting the air ,my hat is off to you guys and what you have to work with ,great job!

That revamped sprayer with combine header is actually genius.

[@fowletm1992]

Not really a revamp Miller nitro they can just un hook the boom and put what ever you want on the front A bit like 3 point linkage

[@1topfueldrag]

was nice to see someone keeping a roof over their high dollar equipment. I know majority of farmers can’t afford that luxury. I’d be cutting me a few trees down.

[@snickk5436]

Using the sprayer as a swather is pretty cool. Any chance that you could make a video about it. Thanks.

[@WaltzingAustralia]

Interesting to watch. The eucalypts and red dirt make it obvious to me that it's Australia, but otherwise, the broad fields open to the wide sky, and the equipment and activities, could be the American Midwest. I wonder if that's why I felt so at home in Australia, even though I'm from the U.S. Heartland. While I now write books about food and agriculture history, my first book, Waltzing Australia, was about my travels Down Under. To me, the video "feels" both Australian and very Midwestern.

I love that they utilize the sprayer to swath the hay also ..... cuts on costs of another tractor or swather.

[@theloniousm4337]

Puts twice as many hrs on the sprayer that likely costs double the swather power unit.

Guy on the JCB with the hay is a machine

[@valleyboy2099]

Na he spearing the bales twice on the stack its quite slow infact!

[@SlyFoxl]

@@valleyboy2099 his first priority is to unload the trailer as fast as possible and to which hes doing a great job at. reason why is to make the trailer have less downtime waiting there when he instead could be on his way back to load back up again at the field. its better that the jcb driver at the shed has the most downtime than the trailer going up and down from the field. so him spearing the bales twice to stack them in the shed doesnt impact the general speed of getting the hay stacked

Great Aussie farming.Thanks for the awesome drone photography,it’s a pity that when you taking the shots of the different implements for different stages of planting and harvesting,that some of them weren’t real closeup shots of more of them,like the chemical sprayer,more closer,and even some slowmo shots of the chemical spraying out.All the machinery and tractors with some slow motion shots would have made it really great.But in saying that,it still is fantastic videography,congrats,and thanks Loui.

[@fowletm1992]

The kelly chain (green thing) is residue management (cuts up the left overs of last year's crop) The grizzly plow (blue thing) can be used to turn over non setting soil The soil can get a wax layer and won't absorb moisture Usually not all the area will be done it's just select areas each year

[@JohnDoe-jq5wy]

Wax layer??? From the soil chemistry??? Are you getting plenty of rain???

[@fowletm1992]

When organic matter doesn't breakdown it sits on the top and gives it a waxy feel Water just runs over the top Can have a puddle 3in deep and kick the middle, dust will come out Can flip the top 2in of dirt over and the unwettable soil is buried then the organic matter is under ground and it breaks down and fresh soil is on top I'm not sure where these guys are based But we're doing ok in South East West Australia We will start seeding tomorrow

Bonjour Nicolas et Antoine. Superbe travail. Une des meilleures vidéo sur les réseaux sociaux à n'en pas douter et qui présente le cycle complet du travail du sol à la récolte et jusqu'à la livraison. Belles prises de vue aérienne, véritable travail de création. L'environnement poussiéreux est impressionnant évoquant la fragilité des sols face aux éléments. Rationalisation du travail, la production trouvera ses débouchés sur le marché mondial. Bravo les gars et félicitation pour le défi personnel relevé !!! Roger et Rachel doivent être contents de la mise en image de leur outil de travail. Cela donne toujours un frisson à Odyssée Agri que des jeunes professionnels saisissent les opportunités, pour vivre pleinement les choses humainement et professionnellement. A jamais gravé dans les esprits, cette expérience en amènera d'autres. Je vous souhaite une bonne continuation. Jean Marie Poirier Odyssée Agri Stages agricoles à l'étranger.

No irrigation? In India, wheat is watered around 4 times. They fill the land with canal or ground water. Agriculture is done at much smaller scale here. At max 100 acres, 10-20 acres on average managed by one family.

[@bushranger51]

The type of wheat grown there is not dependant on too much water, it's necessary to start the crop, but during the growing cycle, it can be a hinderance, too much rain can cause problems later on. Most wheat varieties in Australia, have been genetically engineered over a long time to withstand periods of little to no water. Sure, there are big irrigation projects, but most of that water is diverted to other much thirstier crops, the wheat farmer is usually left to his own devices when it comes to water, usually relying on rainfall, which is a scarce a commodity in the outback. And of course wheat farms here are huge, they have to be to survive. 1000 hectares is considered to be a small holding, it's not the yeild per hectare that counts but the total tonnage got from the crop.
