Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. Our part-time employee, Brock, also helps with the filming. 1980 was our first year in Waldron where our main farm is now. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.
I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.
I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!

"Great job Nathan" "Not Boring @ "All"!!!!!!!!!!!! marv"

Fritz Haber of the Haber-Bosch process of producing fixed nitrogen from atmospheric nitrogen was a very conflicted scientist. He was known as a chemist who saved the lives of billions by inventing the process of artificial fertilizer production that allowed increased food production. As a German citizen during World War One, he was the main scientist to contribute to the development and use of chemical weapons; thus, also known as a scientist who helped kill or maim hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Nathan, great video on explaining the potential use of Source and tie in with environmental concerns. You are the most science literate KZbin farmers that I watch.

[@thomaskjellin9161]

Thanks for the video

[@bobbycunningham7830]

Nathan you are impressive the amount of knowledge you gives us daily you are one of my favorites keep the videos and knowledge coming thanks from Atlanta!

[@TJ1855]

Have you ever thought about using a thermal camera to see where the layers or levels of corn are in your bins?

[@shanestukey5340]

Your knowledge is unbelievable!!

[@alecfromminnenowhere2089]

Theirs something missing in your grain handling area. Where is all the spilled corn? You know, the overfilled wet bin, the leaky horizontal transfer auger, etc.

[@BorderViewFarms]

Haha Phil is meticulous, there's no spilled corn

[@moveonmotortrainingenj-p1384]

I think being a teacher-farmer is your true vocation. You really excel at that!

[@marvincook4543]

"Awesome Agronomic video "

[@MoFire312]

A 3 man crew and 2 semis is still impressive and able to keep up most of the time.

[@agger838]

Clean the windows good then dust them off every single night before going home and they stay really clean till it rains

[@paulpence8895]

Great channel Nathen, I farmed on the family farm til I was 36, then, well, thats a personal story... You remind me of me, sold seed, know my soil biology, always experimented... Thx for the content, daily vids, thats gota be tough...

[@randywilson9611]

Great video good to see y'all

[@ronaldbaker9709]

Good evenibng from Florida, one more day in the high 80s and then it should be more comfortable. SW Florida is very dry, did not get the normal wet season this summer, some smoke in the air from local fires. Big game tonight for the Buckeyes vs the Spartans.

[@gothamfarmersweden8573]

Learning so much

[@milesboehmer9969]

Good morning Nathan from N Iowa, Saturday morning.

[@thebeardedbro]

The amount of knowledge you drop every video is insane. Quickly becoming my favorite channel. Love learning from you and I can’t wait to start learning how to farm myself

[@topworkengine5487]

❤🧡🖤Border View Farms good morning team 💔💔💔

[@kentuckyfarmer2192]

Good video glad harvest is going smoothly for you guys seems like a decent year yield wise for as dry as it was earlier in the year

[@rossnolan2883]

Nice 😊 😊

[@dekr3415]

Lots of great info there

[@NubbzHuntsTreasure]

What you really need is a 12 row head and a 1000bu pit lol. It makes a huge difference to just dump a truck and leave.

[@kirklothert3435]

I'm sure they would like to do that but everything costs money

[@NubbzHuntsTreasure]

@@kirklothert3435 oh ya for sure, but everyone keeps talking about the 8row head, that's not the limiting factor.

[@thelunatick1993]

Limiting factor is bushels they can dry a day. Is that due to wet storage capacity or dryer capacity. Pit and distribution could improve things as well.

[@kirklothert3435]

​@@NubbzHuntsTreasure... Whatever that means

[@nickjewart9351]

And at the end of the day does it really matter if harvest takes them a couple days longer?

[@allenwalters9068]

We had majorty ours out in with air flow n fertilizer, starting to come up gave up 15 inch wheat to dang slow did 20 acres looka grewt air flowed wheat starting to get green but lacking water for sure, still no rain for 9 days really beej warm but dang

[@stanbrow]

Thanks gor a long video today

[@kenia7430]

But,but it looks impressive to have all those trucks sitting in the field full of corn :)

[@MoFire312]

Brock must be a full time firefighter now.

[@stanbrow]

I cam trll you like the new software for the grain vart netwr yhsn yhe old one 😂

[@mikekenyon3322]

good morning

[@davidruffjr6045]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@timcaldwell7947]

You know with a 12 row head you would end up on the right end of the field

[@BorderViewFarms]

I thought that about a 24 row corn planter but it didn't help.

[@paulfabien582]

Just curious if you have data that will allow you to compare the relative effectiveness between the drone and sprayer applicators?

[@BorderViewFarms]

I don't. We didn't really spray any fungicide with a drone

[@paulfabien582]

@@BorderViewFarms Thanks for answering. I really enjoy watching your videos.

[@kenia7430]

Buy more trucks :) You need a couple Peterbilts

[@BorderViewFarms]

More trucks dosent do anything without drivers, then we just fill up the wet bin

[@TJ1855]

Is it this the same as mycorrezi

[@stanbrow]

So. Your Soubd profucut causes the molecule to trigger thf microbrs. But not the sugars. Don't thr microbes need the sugars to feed on? Or am I way over my head here?

[@jocalafarms4051]

2598 grain cart

[@BorderViewFarms]

So we can carry 100,000 pounds around all day?

[@jocalafarms4051]

@BorderViewFarms why not, make great content and comments. Not sure your current grain cart tractor would enjoy being hooked to it though

[@charlesleeneihaus592]

Why don't you hire somebody full time spring and fall

[@BorderViewFarms]

Because we don't need to. We're going to be one of the first ones done around here.

[@terrywalton5861]

To much talk
