Chopping Silage with some really nice IH equipment. (Episode 8)

Went down to the neighbors and helped him chop silage. Check out these classic IH tractors.

[@richardchristiansen5036]

Really enjoyed this video! Just a happy fun video, of course the 70’s model 1456 and 1066 tractors like I grew up on love watching most any with those tractors! Go I H C Bullet proof RED👍. Just like a Timex I’m tellin ya

[@l337pwnage]

1066 was always my favorite tractor. We had one with what my dad called "swamp lugs" on it. I've never seen another tractor with tire lugs as thick and deep as those tires we had. Also, all our wagons used augers in the front instead of an apron. Must not have been a popular design as I've yet to see one on youtube. That flip down tip is interesting, you'd think it would bind up there when trying to raise and lower that.

[@oldamericaniron5767]

My first memory of chopping corn was 1958. I was 3 1/2. My Dad had I 1 row case chopper, Co-op E3 and Farmall H. He had the Co-op on the chopper, it was a very wet fall. When he got to the wet spot in the field he would stop and hook The H in front of the Co-op with a chain, and take the slack out. He would then set me on the H, I remember pushing the clutch in with all my might hanging on to the steering wheel. He would reach and put it in gear and tell me that when he waved I should release the clutch. He’d get on the Co-op wave and off we would go, didn’t have to worry about steering as the tractor would just follow the rows. I remember asking how I would know when to push in the clutch to stop and he said When I stopped moving to push in the clutch so when we got thru the mud he would push in the clutch on the Co-op and the H wouldn’t be able to pull it all and wheels would spin so I would push In the clutch and he would come up, put it in neutral, take me off the seat and move the H out off the way and continue to the end of the field. And so it would go row after row. I was only 3 1/2 but can remember clear as yesterday.

[@growincorn745]

Wow, great story!! I cant fathom putting my 3 1/2 year old on a tractor even if it is an old H!! Crazy how things got done back then!! Thanks for watching and sharing your story!!

[@greggergen9104]

Great story, been there done that... Just with a Johnny Popper.

[@irishtownacres4716]

Great video. Very nice looking equipment and farm😎😎

You haven't experienced life until you have road on a fender of a tractor.

[@arfarms5711]

Amen!!!!!

[@michaelmeyers9506]

Beautiful vintage IH tractors !!! Especially liked that 1466 open station 😍

[@andrewjenkins6996]

I know most farms run green equipment but that is cool to see a fleet of well maintained classic red equipment! Pretty neat.

[@greelsdisc]

You are the unfiltered version of Millennial Farmer. haha.

[@showcattle07]

1466 is badass. Your content, editing, and adding music is making your previously good videos, now awesome

[@mikem3941]

That outfit has chopped my silage for last 5-6 years...Mr. Brian and his partner Mark are top shelf! Treat me like a king and do a perfect job. One thing about it they love killing corn. Thanks so much for video!

[@markbeauchamp399]

Thanks Mike. Always look forward to coming down there!

Those sure are some nice IH tractors 👍👍

[@nebraskadirtmoving6108]

I would pay an embarrassing amount of money for that truck. I’m not a case guy but those are some nice older tractors.

He keeps a well kept farm and equipment!

[@jacobcheney3987]

that ih truck is pretty sweet

[@ih1206]

Man I Could listen to the IH diesels purr all day long. I’d even go as far as saying the 66 series was the best series I’d tractor built across the board, hands down. A few years back, there was an April fools prank going around facebook that CNH was going to built a 40th anniversary blackstripe 1066 just like it rolled off the line in late 1975/early 76. I know a few guys that thought it was serious lol. But if they could do that, those would sell like a hot damn. Your neighbor has some fine red iron, I’d take that 10 or 14 any day of the week. Maybe even the 806 too if I don’t already have two of them lol.

[@dougbarber4209]

Love this video!!! Old school IH tractors are my favorite!!! Keep up the good work

[@truespeed2020]

Good job with the new drone...much appreciated.

Good stuff Tony! No farm progress show this year....then felt like I was there after watching. The silo looks to be old technology...changing times.

This is a great video. I'm glad you decided to start making KZbin videos. I wish you all the luck. Thank you . P.S. it's Awesome to see Henry out there with you. You're gonna make him into a great man.

[@danlongfellow4967]

Cool Video

[@jean-sebastienregimbald1073]

Awsome video like always and man how about these classics IH 😍

[@daveferguson5014]

Love your video's bud! Brought me back to my youth when I was in high school working for a Dairyman. I hauled silage to the pit instead of a blower in those days. Damn I miss those days! Keep up the good content. Wish you did these videos of harvest more often, but then no work would get done... Anyway, stay safe and look forward to the next video.

[@tompreiss5010]

Was on a big goat operation when I was a young. Was grazing 3000 goats on pee' s and started to get rain almost every day. Was using ivamec to drench but it wouldn't keep up started to loose about 100 a day. Asked an old timer up the road what to do he just lafed and sead put the liquid drench 8n the water trough. We went from losing 100 a day all the way down to 1 a day within a week. Locally it stopped raining.

[@austinprice2278]

Awesome camera work! The drone footage was great! Hope there’s more in harvest time.

[@colejones8252]

awesome video love see the old internationals! I’ve asked you before but this reminded me to ask you again. Could you make a video of why you and your dad don’t farm anymore? And maybe add old pictures of your guys stuff you used to have. And possibly tell all of the tractors you guys used to have.

[@VARITHMS]

Great video. I'm stuck at home for a bit with a broken leg. I'll be here watching

[@joshmeacham3326]

that new intro sound...ohh baby lol

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Nice equipment!!!! There was a custom outfit down in the Willamette valley that had a Krone, probably been 20 years ago.. I only saw them on the road, as I was running beside a Claas.. they were loading 15 tons in 3 to 4 minutes!! The Claas I hauled off of was very consistent, 15 tons in 4 minutes. Miss hauling silage!! Not much done here, now that all the dairies are gone😪 (count them on one hand now... I hauled into twenty at one time) Thanks for the video!! Good to see you aren't afraid to be seen around red equipment 👍

[@growincorn745]

Yeah i had a cousin that milked about 350 cows. I always drove a semi beside a 6950 deere chopper back then. Always had a blast!

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Sweeeeeeeet!!!!

[@TonyM132]

Dang, based on the video title I was hoping to see an IH forage harvester with two row corn head being driven by a 1466 or something along those lines. Oh well, no such luck... I guess running wagons around with IH tractors is still not bad. I wish they wouldn't have added those giant L-shaped throttle levers or painted the suitcase weights two-tone white and red, though, booo on that.

[@pietervandermerwe447]

Great video! I see you got a good hang of the drone 👌 great footage!!

[@kylethomas5666]

First one to comment today! Also. Love your videos. Thanks for posting! Also the drone footage in this video was awesome.

[@robpeters5204]

That Krone is built for high production chopping. Speed and brute force.

good camera work there Henry, bout time the old man brought you to to run some great iron

Good stuff thank you

[@Blurry_Sights]

So first of all i don't know shit about the amish community, except from what i've seen, those guys and girls know how to do hard work. My point of this is that the chopper guy looked amish to me. I'd love to know more about their lives

[@martymartin2894]

What fellow looked Amish and why do you think that what was different about him. I never noticed anyone looking out of the ordinary and I'm after watching a couple of times.

[@n3qdz]

just being a gawker not a farmer I do have to say I like the new stuff. I love the older stuff when it's done right (lovingly cared for) and that case equipment is DAMN SWEET!!!!!! That truck was awesome! I do have to say that Krone chopper has more way's to kill a man than Hillary Clinton and that's a lot! My question is the storage bags are way cool, how exactly do yogurt the silage out of them? As always thanks for the lesson on the process, thanks for showing us those sweet machines and thanks for all the hard work you and ALL the farmers do!

[@growincorn745]

Lol on the Hillary Clinton!! To get the silage out you'll cut the end of the bag open and take a skid loader and scoop it out 1 bucket full at a time. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!!

[@martymartin2894]

I've heard that said on other podcasts about her, what exactly was it she done I've heard her called killery before. I'm not from USA so I don't know.

[@colinriley6877]

I like the new intro

[@andywilson2676]

Great video! That 1466 is the boss! How many acres did you all chop?

[@growincorn745]

Oh gosh id have to ask. Wasn't all that much maybe 8 or 10 acres. Put up one 150ft bag was all.

[@andywilson2676]

@@growincorn745 All good no worries man keep on keeping on!

[@andercoincvideos5551]

Quick question,how is that style corn harvest different then yours? Thanks for the vids!! I really appreciate your channel

[@growincorn745]

Here they're taking in the whole plant and mixing it all into straight cattle feed as the machine goes through the field. The machine i will be using will only harvest the ears off the stalk and leave the rest of the plant in the field. My machine also shells the kernels off the cob. All I want is the kernels of corn, here they want the plant and all. Hope that makes sense. Feel free to ask any other questions. Thanks for watching!

Do they test for nitrate poisoning? Swmo they cant chop as low to the ground this year, so there is like 2 ft stalk left
