Can We Finish This Big Job?

[@sterlingspencer2934]

You closed that ladder like a pro Laura, I remember when you first tried to figure the combinatio to getting the ladder up and down!

[@FarmGearInnovators]

Poor skunk! 😂 Love that you keep it real-those green stems and weeds are all part of the farming story. Awesome job finishing soybeans! 👏

They are harvesting cotton in my home state of Alabama. When I was a kid, 70 plus years ago, we harvested cotton by hand; pulling a seven or nine foot long sack behind us to stuff the cotton into as we pulled the locks off the boll. A very lengthy back breaking endeavor. The average amount of cotton that a good man could pick in a day would weigh about 210 to 250 pounds and a fully ginned bale of cotton would weigh about 500 pounds. The un-baled cotton would be about 1500 pounds give or take. Things are a lot different now with new technology and machinery.💪

[@Bfranklyn731]

@@harolderwin5354 that sounds tough as nails like the people who did the work- tough as nails!!

[@piepawrench]

My dad was born and raised in Tx. and had to also work in the cotton fields, He told me stories about an old woman that was a migrant worker and followed the crops. He said she rode/drove an old buckboard pulled by a mule. He also told me she played the harmonica, and he said she also always had a cheek full of Tabacco. Now, his story went on to say that she taught my dad to play (her) harp, harmonica but he would have to pick out the pieces of tobacco first. Dad was born in1922, so he was around 7 or 8 when he was in the fields and with this old woman. My brother and I, yrs later also picked up the harmonica and learn to play, but not like dad could. He could play the blues like nobody business!!

[@iphobley]

Thanks for sharing your memories, really interesting.

[@FarmerPro-w4k]

you had a great childhood

[@DreamFarmUS]

That sounds like such a labor-intensive process! Harvesting cotton by hand is definitely no small feat, especially with those long sacks to manage. It must have taken a lot of strength and endurance to pick that much in a day. The transformation in agriculture over the years is remarkable-modern machinery has certainly changed the landscape of farming. Do you have any particular memories from those days that stand out, or perhaps lessons you learned from that hard work?

[@jeffhoberg1995]

You have a great operation Laura. It’s fun for us non-farmers to see your amazing success with everyone working so hard. We appreciate you and the entire family! Keep it rockin and keep the videos coming.

[@don-dspid2404]

There is something so relaxing watching harvest equipment rolling.

[@stevea9604]

So satisfying looking at the drone shots 👍🏻🤩

[@daleyates2261]

I am 66 years old and love watching your videos please be safe and keep them coming

[@mayforddavis9291]

Congratulations on finishing bean harvest.

[@أشرفبلاش]

I am from Egypt, I love this channel! My greetings to you guys.

[@StephenMoore-vc7ku]

I live in Australia & I’ve heard stories about how bad skunks smell when they spray 😮 I just joined your channel a week ago & I appreciate you letting me come along with you😊 Stephen 🇦🇺

[@Sailor376also]

Laura, I wave every time I go by. I am the guy who frequently has a canoe on the roof of my F150 headed to or from the Green or Colorado Rivers. "This is great. This is wonderful." Eau de Skunk. I have one that likes my house and visits every couple of weeks,, eye watering.

[@jdskibum313]

I appreciate all the knowledge. I am 59, from GI and live in Lincoln. Your videos taught me about an industry I grew up near, but not actually a part of (save for detasseling 3 summers in the 70s, Peterson Farms). I never knew you blew off the stubble from the previous previous day. It makes sense, but not if you don't think about it. Thanks again for teaching those of us not involved in farming what exactly that industry entails.

[@9maris]

I live in farm country in upstate New York. I love this stuff and have learned a lot.😊

[@BurningBroadcast]

Been watching your videos for ages, but it just remains special what sort of fancy equipment there is. Designed to harvest at this scale. Imagine having to harvest that by hand 😮

[@DarrylSparlin]

I just love watching farm videos. Wish I could ride along in one of those big combines. Thanks for sharing. God bless our farmers.

[@westrotter7847]

We're ready to do corn now !! It'll be so much fun to see that corn disappear into the combine !!!!😊

[@VonBluesman]

I thought you had all of your corn harvested but I saw some standing. 😱😎✌️

[@samlague4409]

Such a beautiful smart and wonderful creator. Great videos as always Laura

[@KateOrzell]

Watching your channel is like a celebration every time you post a new video. Continue to delight us with your fun and energizing content!👀⚡️🌌

[@johnensminger7675]

Great job on the drone footage!

With Laura’s energy level and the blue and yellow outfit I kept thinking, “Minion”!

I drove by this summer on 80 and gased up at Arora truck stop on my way home from my brother's in Lincoln MT. too n/w Pa.

[@Fonda-d3x]

The production quality is getting really good with the drones, music, scene cuts and audio. Well done!

[@stevea9604]

Amazing what they do with just a phone too 👍🏻🤩🤔

[@TomRowan777]

Ditto! Great job with the Drone footage and the editing is as professional as anything else on TV. Very satisfying and Zen Harvest! Happy Harvest Moon Laura, Grant, & Gage!

[@godoftheinterwebz]

it's taking away from the genuineness of the videos

[@johnensminger7675]

Looking good, Laura! Thanks for sharing your life and taking us along for the ride! Love the channel content!!

[@michaelwilliams7481]

Laura, and Grant, I was wondering if the weeds are the most troublesome for clogging-up the head! I hope your yield is up this season. Next onto your biggest crop. Love to you all from Mike. ❤

[@MikeLandis-h2b]

Perhaps all the fields could be leveled before planting time, and save trouble with clogging problems in the combine? Maybe the wet crop would be dry like the rest of the field?

[@burtisbills1668]

We drove down I80 from Utah to the audobons bird watching blind. I love the Sand hill cranes. Every time I wast your channel I get a big smile. Keep up the good work

[@bay9876]

Almost sayng goodbye to 2023 growing year. Will miss the planting, fertilization and harvest, but with the end comes next year if we're all here. Love this channel and mouser Pepper.

Thanks for the work all farmers do in USA. I worked on my Aunt J coffee farm (200 Acres) in India all work done by hand to pick coffee beans. I loved rural life. We had to watch out for Elephants.. DDL

[@thomascasserly3444]

I was just thinking about that field thanks for confirming it’s the one the car ran off into😮

[@davidhuffine5084]

I like watching the combine . It is all different than when I was young . The old machines could be driven down the road . I remember People having 10 corn heads . My dad had a two row corn picker . It got job done , But it took longer . Thanks for sharing , Laura . Seeya in the corn .

[@minicowman]

Y'all might need to chat with KZbin about your subscribers.. This video is the first one of yours that came up on my list this morning, in quite a while. I checked and you've done 14 videos that never showed up on my list. I've been a subscriber since you started (I used to live not that many miles east of you long ago). Anyway, I'll be binge watching to get caught up. Have a great day!

[@johndoyle6697]

Hi Laura and Grant. The drone footage is beautiful. Did you get the new software for auto link for combine and tractor. Will you fabricate a new boom for your hagie. Something like You have on your tele handler with the extendable boom.

[@brokenbritain9441]

I really enjoy that it's just like one big lawn mower🙄😳😁

[@phillip9468]

G'day Laura, Grant & Gage from W.A. (in Oz.) even though it's a couple of days after the vid landed in my phone. (?) Well W.A. does stand for Wait Awhile according to those in the eastern states. Banana benders, Cabbage patchers, Crow eaters & Apple munchers. Nothing like interstate rivalry, hey. The use of the drone gives an overall picture of the size of the fields you are working & also adds to the high standard of video you have achieved in the years your channel has been up & running. Thank you all,& stay safe.

[@hotbug597]

I must say, this is professional quality work. I am so impressed and proud of how far you have come with your videos. This is ready for the history channel or some equivalent venue.

[@davidgoertzen250]

I worked on a custom harvesting crew in 1988. We used to load trucks alongside the combine as they were cutting. As like g as you didn’t try to shift gears, it went pretty well.

[@paulwalters6879]

I’m so excited for harvest time. Thi s great,

[@snowman1185-v]

Impressive! I remember watching you, I think, three years ago. It's nice to see how far you've come.

[@oldgrizz8720]

I like the smell of skunk. Grew up in the city, grandparents lived in the country. When we smelled skunk we knew we were getting close to grandma's love, kisses, and homemade donuts! Now when I smell skunk I get sentimental.

[@brianpesci]

I hope you had an excellent crop this year, can't say enough about the respect I have for farmers.

[@gregrussell5374]

Wow. Nice job. I can tell by all three’s tone of voice that you get along well and work well as a team. This is interesting to watch.

[@elwoodsummersjr596]

Great video, it's so heartwarming to see such hard working young people, and then add Laura's Beauty to the mix, awesome to watch. Lots of love from pa ❤❤❤

Maintenance always keeps you moving. To many businesses don't do it and have breakdowns when they least need it.

Love watching you guys!! I should have been a farmer!! Hope you continue letting me hangout watching.

[@edwardh1591]

It has to feel good to be done with the beans. My cousin has 100 acres to go. So he is excited to be finishing up. Have a great day!😊

[@FroggyTWrite]

[@tomrogers323]

Great content as usual plus the drone footage! Looking forward to the corn harvest as well!

[@williamgerhard4787]

U got me cracking up great job guys as always

[@regor2102]

Grant, when did you last adj your brakes? A bad way to test brakes is to see if the tractor will move with the parking brake on, then try the trailer brakes with the parking brake released and the handbrake pulled back. It beats nothing. I know you don't do steep grades so they don't need adjusting often. But it nice to know you can stop fast when needed.

[@davidbratton9346]

I waved as I drove by while you were doing this. The combine was on the south end of the field so I'm sure you couldn't see me in the west bound lane.

[@marklohmann6267]

Another good production. Especially liked the music.

[@yankeetango]

Excellent production and narration as usual. Love the drone shots!

[@duanebolen543]

You should do that when done for the day when you are dirty an grease when bearings are warm from running so they take grease better

[@rboston33]

Thank god for farmers Market 9.70 That hurts

[@larrymoffitt2386]

So happy to see the soybeans done, finishing up on that odd-shaped piece of land. Soybeans are fine because we need them for tofu, but nothing satisfies like the crunch of corn stalks in the combine. The next month or so will be such fun!

[@pglick123]

The drone shots are beautiful!

[@frankdeegan8974]

Two of the over the road trucks I drove had an automatic transmissions and I loved them both one was equiped with a radar breaking system to keep a safe opreating distance between trucks too.

Remembering watching JD Combine harvesting especially at night. That was 3 decades ago. Started watching because I've lived in Iowa 52 yes and just wanted to learn about farming. Also helped manufacture lots of Green and Red parts from railings to Rice Chutes. Even some hydraulic hoses and even rotomolded part on front of JD combine. Thank You...

Hello Laura and team, congratulations on the wonderful work you do. I watch all your videos and I find it very interesting how you solve problems, always with willingness, joy and you always have your wonderful smile; many times I have a bad day and when I get home I run to see if there is a new video, because when I watch your videos I feel an indescribable peace and my problems disappear like magic.
