Compost Extract applied to Oats. Trying out Fed’N Happy!

[@hansieswanepoel746]

Hi Jay. Thanks for your videos. I think you have no idea how many farmers you've helped the past season. We have changed our operation completely to regenerative ag after watching your videos. May God bless you and your family for your time and effort. Greetings from South Africa.

[@youngredangus6041]

Wow This comment means a lot to me Thank you!

[@paulnicholson8524]

Hang in there, I'm trying to bring the Soil Food Web to the residential lawn care market. There is a billion acres of broken dirt in this country alone. Let's stay encouraged.

[@austinsmith4914]

Thanks Jay. Great info . helping me stay thankful. well appreciated. God is good.

[@jeffbrouwer2774]

Dude, crazy you talked about "additude of gratitude"at the end of your video. Those exact thoughts were going through my head this weekend. God is good all the time, no matter what we are facing in this life. Thanks for your honesty! 👍

[@jimgleason8033]

Attitude of gratitude! Well said. Keep our eyes looking up

[@flatsville9343]

Dude, We all appreciate the detailed vid footage & explanations you provide. Everyone gets tired, disgusted, etc.. Don't beat yourself up.

[@ritcheymt]

@Young Red Angus, when you share the things that don't work, they are at least as valuable as those that do work. I'm grateful for your willingness and diligence in sharing!

[@youngredangus6041]

Thanks man!

We are Very Thankful for all the videos you do !!! Thank you for taking the time to do so.

You are welcome Thanks for the encouragement

[@themodernmenagerie4636]

Thank you for this! We are about to treat seed for the first time after my husband and Dad coming to your class this spring and we were planning on calling you tomorrow so perfect timing 😂 Really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and at least helping the next guy have a bit of a leg up on how regenerative ag works in our area. Thank you!

[@youngredangus6041]

You are welcome

Once again Jay, very informative and candid. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.

I usually weigh oats in at about 42lbs/bu (I've grown them up to 46lbs/bu in the past, but I usually average around that 41-42lb mark), but for quick and dirty math, I use 40lbs/bu. So with that being said, 2000lbs of oats is roughly 50 bushels, give or take. We (that's us personally) grow oats as our main feed crop up here in Manitoba, as they're quick and relatively easy to grow, and you can pasture them, cut them for green-feed, wait and cut 'em for yellow-feed, or thrash 'em out for grain and straw. I'll have to see about finding some stuff like that Fed'N Happy up here, and see if it works on fall rye as well as oats, since we're gonna throw some fall rye in for pasture this year, too, because we're now strapped for pasture and going to have to use some of our more marginal land for grazing.

[@trevorgardner7251]

Also from Manitoba have been telling dad about this stuff just can’t seem to find anybody that sells it or something close to it

[@paulnicholson8524]

Way to go. Keep up the good work!

[@youngredangus6041]

Thanks Paul

Johnson Su is the pancake slurry. Where compost is mixed with Milk water and molasses for a pancake slurry. We use a TMR mixer and lay it out on plastic. Then we can drill or broadcast.

[@sandervanstee]

I would love to know more about the compost process used by fed n happy

[@richardmeisenzahl1401]

Thank you for sharing, an attitude of gratitude. You’re spot on.

Hi Jay. I think you video are fantastic. I am Dyslexic too. The whole Regenerative farming subject is so exciting but a bit overwhelming at the same time. I what to do it all straight away but am finding I can only absorb some much new information at a time, which can be frustrating. You break the subject down so well. I am based in Northern England UK. I have some many ideas about the directions this could go over here. It would be great to talk about it sometime. Keep your chin up. Best wishes Jamie

Thanks Send me an email and I can invite you to a zoom call

I am from east of berlin in Germany and really trying to adopt the six regenerative prinziples on my farm. Compost seed treatment is next on the list this spring to get the furthelizer bill down. Me and a farming friend would love to be part of a zoom call with you. Because you are showing in real live the highlights and the struggles on the regenerative way on a thousand Hektar farm like ours are. Thank a lot for your very inspiring videos.

Attitude of gratitude is a great concept. Will try it. A word of gratituse: thank u. Yr videos are great. Am a smallholder in south africa doing regen stuff as a novice. 3 Johnson Su bioreactors on the go and lots of smaller compost bays that are full of worms etc. My point: although u operate at a much bigger scale, the experiences u share are sufficient for me to learn useful lessons in a different continent and on a much smaller scale. So, thank u and pls don't out.

[@christopherburman3340]

Pls don't burn out (typo!)

[@youngredangus6041]

Thanks for the encouragement!

[@christopherburman3340]

@Young Red Angus you deserve. A pleasure to watch yr work via internet

[@PNW-LOGGING-HOMESTEAD]

Jay. I just wanted to say thank you for all your hard work putting out these videos. You are giving us great insights and hope. I come from four generations of loggers and my family has a few small farms.. and keeping the cattle operations, orchards and gardens productive and cost of inputs down has been difficult. Quite the juggling act. With the cost of fertilizer skyrocketing along with fuel ..just trying to keep going .. trying make foreword moment... just trying to make it until friday. While you may struggle putting these videos together while juggling all the day to day things. I just want you to know that you are opening the eyes of many. You are giving hope to many. Sharing your ups and downs and the successes and failures of your regenerative agriculture experience ... I means so much.... not having to start regenerative agriculture on our own is huge and I can't thank you enough. I'm sorry have rambled on for so long. But thank you for sharing your experiences and giving so many of us hope.

[@youngredangus6041]

I really appreciate your words of encouragement. Thank you very much.

Can Fed' N Happy be shipped to Canada?

[@bendonker]

Dumb question, can a person apply that in furrow with a planter? Or does the seed need to soak in the slurry before being planted?

[@nathanparsons8020]

In some of his past videos he’s talked about putting it in the row.

[@caroljenkins8536]

Thank you for your attitude and in all your busyness allowing our grandson to be a part of YRA! Blessings, brother!

[@Th4thWiseman]

You're doing this trialling %100 correct Ben 👍 No gung-ho fail, work with what works and introduce progressively then read results 👍 Spot on brother it does take time to prove and going gung-ho out of control 9 times out of 10 fail with lots of undocumented anomalies along the way that can't be gauged/handled from far too many conditions that aren't in our control via natures whole processes! Great content, great work,great knowledge shared. Thanks Ben keep doing YOU and don't get the bee under bonnet drive you crazy. %100 I know,you know,we who do know,know this path supercedes the OLD PARADIGM of farming produce and detoxifying the entire globe! Once again you are on the right path Ben 👍 slowly slowly wins the race💪 Cheers brother, I'd love to meet you in person one-day, if you're ever in Australia or if I'm ever in America I would thoroughly enjoy sharing the knowledge of both hemispherical climates and soils! Thanks for your immense participation in proving it can be done and being done💪

[@RC-om9nh]

Man, that's a handsome cattle farmer.

[@moonboy685]

Thanks for posting all these videos and your perspective. Do you think applying treatment to the seed and immediately planting would allow you to avoid moving it back and forth? Thanks!

[@youngredangus6041]

Possibly if it doesn’t set up on the planter

[@moonboy685]

@@youngredangus6041 thanks for the reply. I farm in the SW Texas Panhandle, so our conditions are very similar to yours. Your videos are inspiring me to try some things we’ve never done. I thought about adding an agitator to the drill I’ll be trying this with to keep it from setting up too bad.

[@ryandinkelman5867]

Thanks for the video. Unfortunately you will probably never actually know the number of people you affect. I did have a question, what is the difference on a microbial level from your compost from Fed'N Happy? Does it accomplish the same thing?

[@RC-om9nh]

Just a heads up: For some reason, when I try to subscribe to alerts it refuses to let me. It immediately changes back from "All" to "None." You may want to ask them what that's about as it may be affecting your ability to reach more people.
