Cutting Oats! - John Deere 7600

[@HowFarmsWork]

The orange color comes from a mixture of pollen and oat rust known as “Puccinia coronata”, the mower itself isn’t rusting through

I was just going to ask, then I saw your answer.

How Farms Work hello

[@sarabennett5983]

You are so funny

Same thing in the fall on grass . Not harmful just ugly . Lawn care tech I see it every year !

[@zuestoots5176]

A tractor working is so majestic. I'll pull off the highway just to watch a tractor under load. I live in Idaho, and our town is surrounded by farm land in every direction. I will drive a tractor all day if given the chance

[@stevenwalls7215]

The good o country music in the back ground just makes these kinda videos even better to watch to us from the country just makes it feel even more like our real lives so thanks

[@henrygraf7860]

Thanks for not skipping over the mowing process.

[@robertg.9964]

I have to say, You and Nick Welker do an excellent job on you videos. I know between farming and video editing, it's extremely time consuming, but I and your other 232K subscribers greatly appreciate all that you do on the farm and informing us how a farm works. I really think these videos will encourage our children to either farm as well or support our local farmers. I definitely do every year buying locally. Thank you again for all you do!!!

[@kristenscott9438]

Very beautiful video, Ryan! SO relieved to see that the crops are doing well! Calvin is so adorable!

Im glad to see you take care of your equipment and that you even check the oil before you get ready for work. Great job👍🇺🇸

Seeing your pup in the cab when leaving the farmstead is the cutest thing. Also - kudos on the US flag on the 18 wheeler

[@g.n.g4851]

Saw the Flag hanging on the side of Big Red! Thank you for the display!

[@wyattsimpson6810]

I was just pulling into our hay when this video came out. Raking up 2nd crop. Love the videos. Keep up the great work

[@America-First2024]

2nd cut? Man! I’m still working on first cut. (Rain) 😕

[@wyattsimpson6810]

We were dry all then rain then back to dry but yep 2nd crop

[@BogeyHawks]

I think this is one of your best vids yet. Nice job.

[@FoolOfATuque]

I was in some heavy stuff this weekend with a rotary cutter. It was not a fun time and very slow going. We don't do alfalfa or silage so no need to invest in a mower-conditioner. Sitting under a rotary cutter in the hot Texas sun pulling grass out of the rotors, because you were going too fast isn't fun. Sometimes (always) I learn my lessons the hard way. I also get to learn those lessons multiple times. The mega wide pick up on those John Deere balers are incredible though! It will go through an windrow no matter how heavy. Lol!

[@anthonybanda8192]

we are on our second cutting of hay here in michigan. we got a lot of rain the hay is growing fast. trying to cut hay and harvest wheat at the same time staying busy. good thing we have some hired help.

[@14Marathons]

Great video Ryan. Great to see Travis and Rocket in the video as well. You and Travis have awesome channels. Thanks!

[@gavv_2379]

The Wheelman looks amazing!! I hope you are enjoying it!! Love your vids!! :)

[@rogerwilson9892]

Look like you going to see some nice bales off the 25 acre oat field and hope you will have more hay than you will need this winter.

[@stevemondal.]

Good to here you can hold on the the JCB for while longer. Thanks Ryan.

[@ReverseProof]

Great video, Ryan. You're video/drone work is second to none!

[@HowFarmsWork]

❤️

[@plowboy7700]

Anything goes south don't call me. 🤣 Same thing I tell my Dad when he goes to the field.

[@MatthewHoag77]

Typical farmer banter, especially with these two good ol' boys.

[@j.b.caldwell7420]

Travis and you both have referred to your prior alfalfa seedlings as having a lot of loss over winter and the following year. I can’t recall that you ever let this hay ground lie fallow or rotated to something other than alfalfa . How did you do that without the old alfalfa roots choking out the newer seedlings ? We can’t do alf after alf here - have to rotate corn or grass for a season.

[@eddeetz493]

The cattle will come running for those wrapped bales. Good luck with a great 2nd crop and over 100 bales on the oats. Do you stage the oats for winter pasture feeding. Feeding will be a snap with the JCB. Looks like hay will be at a premium with lack of production.

[@jerryminney3555]

Hello Ryan , That looks like it would make you less opt to make a mistake but on the other hand it will make your rows nice and straight , have a great week take care

[@michaelpedersen1672]

Very informative. I am certainly not a farmer. I enjoy watching you go through your work days. Keep,up the good work.

[@peteraernouts5741]

around here the hook a disc mower to a self propeld chopper cut and chop the oats at the same time and load it on a trailer and make silo that way it gives a lot less of dust and dirt in your silage.

[@richardbloomfield1247]

Will you do a video on you wrapping the bales

[@HowFarmsWork]

I'll be making a video when we wrap them!

[@richardbloomfield1247]

I will be ready to watch it

[@RandysFiftySevenChevy]

That is so satisfying to watch Ryan, I love seeing family farms in action. Great job.

[@robertmacleod4058]

That stuff wrapped will make great feed for your beef cows. Could you tell how the stand under the oats looked?

[@HowFarmsWork]

Robert MacLeod there was a lot of variability since the field was contoured

[@sarabennett5983]

🇦🇱🇦🇪

[@Butterfly-mt5ml]

What a pretty mow! Dumb question 🙋‍♀️ Where’s the hay going as you’re cutting it?

[@fasterdura1772]

Awsum video👌👌👌👌. But the John Deere moco with the flail type conditioner is the WORST in oats. Walk behind and see all the seeds on the ground threshed. Roller crimpers are the best. But I guess each to their own. Love the video tho. Happy harvesting 👌👌👌👌.

[@fermewestshefford]

A rapper , very funny ! And I like this kind of video to! Great job Ryan

[@augustreil]

That was hilarious with Rocket and your hat !

[@tucobenedicto109]

Cool video after tedding and bailing. Maybe Monday a camera on the jcb brush bucket, and show the clean up. Do you save the wood to season? Hope you didn't lose that much oats. Great to feed the cattle.

[@b2617]

Great video! Love the drone and music.

[@ceemorebuts]

If planning on expanding cattle herd, you may what plan on putting tricale in fall for spring baleage then double crop Sudan-sorghum. Could get 2 cutting of Sudan-sorghum. But that’s my 2 cents, hope to it helps

[@ceemorebuts]

I think there are some variety that are baleage ready around June 1st but understand delayed corn and soybeans planting will cause problems, but planting rye or tricale could bee harvest as grain if delayed in baleage, if there’s a market,then sorghum or millet

[@kirkking6601]

Awesome moco video. I just got a JD 630 moco this year and started cutting Bermuda hay.

[@cassiuspuckett8789]

Nice video Ryan. Nice stand of oats, and looks like a good bed of alfalfa underneath......

[@aussiepedrosmith78]

Call me strange buts there's something extremely satisfying watching the Moco cut oats!

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

nice video great editing and finishing up with Rocket wearing your hat gave me a great laugh...

[@boys597]

Hey, here in Norway we using a lot off fendt vario. The reason is easy. It makes the silage go a lot faster. And its mutch cheaper too drive. 😊

Ahh the starting of that mower brings me back

[@laurosanchez9580]

[@markb.1259]

You make awesome videos Ryan! You explain well what y'all are working on, the camera work is totally outstanding. The drone work is Top Notch! I don't know how you get some of the action shots flying around the cutter while cutting. Thanks!

[@TheDba6060]

Some kind of different trees on your oat field, what wat that? 😉 16:06

[@valtur25]

looks like hemp to me - a popular plant used to make fabrics like linen or rich biomass, shouldn't be mistaken with cannabis

[@zuestoots5176]

@@valtur25 Hemp is a strain of Cannabis.

[@minnesota4169]

How do you like the flails on that moco? We have a New Holland H7230 (not a hydroswing) but I really like it but it has rollers. I thought the flails would beat the grain off the oats...but not so much? I've never used an auto steer either but it looks kinda cool. I guess the difference is I'm not trying to make a video while I cut. Pretty cool though.

[@HenryLoenwind]

I wonder what the wheelman turning calibration would do in a vehicle that can turn on the spot. Not many out there that have a steering wheel, tbf. ;)

[@bradleymiskelly1214]

What type of plant is that at 11:48?

[@conortimm733]

If you’re wrapping the bales why ted it? Is the ground that wet around you? We just take each row over then bale it within 24-30 hours

[@carterfarms5906]

U and travis are so funny lol " i got my phone on me if anything goes south call someone else "😏😏😏😏😆😆😆😆😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ethanhuber5360]

We're 90 acres into our mowing. Alfalfa is so thick and tall it's been plugging the conditioner.

[@garlandhenry6792]

Good video as always. Thanks for the ride a long

[@AndreyK415]

What are those deep green tall plants in ditches/low spots, seems like you might not want them in your feed? 11:49

[@HowFarmsWork]

That’s ragweed, it’s pretty fibrous although not toxic for the cattle so the cattle tend to pick around it. After heavy drought conditions or application of fertilizer, ragweed can accumulate nitrates which can be toxic for the cattle, but for the amount of ragweed in the field that isn’t as big of concern as storage

[@raphael7088]

hello how farm work.I is french and i follow your channel,you have the beautiful farm and good job with tractor and mower.

[@dougeubank]

Hello Ryan, question, how many drones have you lost by running them into tractor or equipment? Great video, keep them coming.

[@MrOutdoorsman015]

Does a center pivot moco work better than a right sided one in your guys opinion?

[@HowFarmsWork]

We’ve used both and this one is definitely more versatile and works better

[@MrOutdoorsman015]

We've been using a right side since 2002, I've been trying to get the "boss" to invest in a center pivot for it being easily handled

[@Drew1776.]

How long did it take to mow the entire feild???

[@Antieau4]

Hey Ryan: I'm new to your channel and making my way through your videos. I am not a farmer, but have mowed hay with my father in law years ago. How is the mower head controlled to track to the left, right, and center behind the tractor? Is it manually "steered" or does it track automatically? I'm not sure you'll even answer me on this old video. I'm here, I'm subscribed, and I'm knocking out your video library. Thanks for what you do. Stay safe!

[@stupatt321]

11:49 what did you go threw?

[@albransix]

I have never thought of making hay out of oats. That is a good idea.

What does Travis think of the auto steer in his tractor

[@jacobbabcock5282]

Travis has a channel called The rest of the story. I would ask him there

[@davedunn2124]

RYAN, have you guys ever ran higher moisture hay through your baler? If so how did it do? Guessing you were shooting for 20% or less just to preserve it

[@HowFarmsWork]

This stuff is going to be dry, it wasn’t cut soon enough to make decent silage, at this point I’m looking to keep the rain off the bales. We’ve run wet hay through it before and had issues

[@jerryfowler4960]

Some nice photography.

[@koltonwagner8670]

How high are the sides on big reds trailer?

[@tonyburelle6633]

I'm not sure how to ask, but I will, wouldn't it be easier to combine all the land, fuel, etc and share the cost, and rewards, I guess it's working for all you just curious, thank you, great video

[@benjaminbauer4883]

Tony Burelle they need hay for the cattle

[@tonyburelle6633]

Huh?, That's not what I asked

[@billwieland8497]

Do you forsee a need to use Big Red to move bales?

[@HowFarmsWork]

It would be nice to use it for that, but it wouldn’t fit in my driveway with a trailer on

[@scootertoro5368]

How many tractors does a dairy farm normally use or have our own?

[@tonymckeage1028]

well done ryan, theres nothing like cutting hay

[@SKC640]

I dig the wheelman and am super interested but have one question. Does the GPS receiver have to be above like on a cab? Can it be used on a open station with no rops

[@biggamehunter9138]

Your mower would pick up more of the oasts you run over on your first pass if you extended the mower all the way out and then after your first pass turn around and go the opposite direction

[@jcbryant2305]

Would you consider now that you’re doing more hay getting that self-propelled mower you guys demoed a few years back

[@diggerdave.6587]

We never tedd oats as we find that it knocks out too many seeds especially if its mowed as the G.S you mention. Do you not have that trouble Ryan?

[@stanhensley3082]

Gee,look Mom,no hands.Great drone work ,thanks.

[@thedeere1012]

How many hours are on the 7600

[@Lordwilliams1990]

make sure you put enough layers of wrap on the bales, minimum 10 with whole crop. how do you get on with the moco, are they ok on hills? I would leave it 24 to 48 hours in the rows then bale and wrap it. You can bale and wrap the same day with whole crop.

[@benjaminbauer4883]

Joesph Williams I know at my place we can’t leave any bales panned for silage longer than 12 hours or we are trying to wrap sponges

[@brycemarsaglia3601]

Great video ryan. Oats look great! How many acres did you have in?

[@ernestdougherty3162]

Damn big projects to the video Ryan I think you should give your hat to rock it I think it looks better on him than it does you lots of laughs and he didn't seem to mind it overall good video at least your ring held up so you can cut the roads now if we can get them bailed and wrapped that would be great

I was wondering about the rust look in one of Travis' videos... Always appreciate the time and effort you put in your videos! Maybe you should check Rocket's doghouse for your other missing hats!! lol

[@shopshop-lx9hj]

Honest question----what's the point of the wheelman if you are still going to be in the cab?

[@wheelman9]

Wheelman is a Hands free autosteer system that allows you to concentrate on the other tasks involved in farming. It reduces driver fatigue and reduces overlap and skips in application.

[@frankeem3820]

Hello sir, thank you for another great video. Makes me wish I was still farming. Question, Define good forage. Is it the amount of protein or fiber or what is good forage?

[@RangieNZ]

Ryan, maybe a little plywood or something on the steps would help Rocket? The ridged metal must hurt his paws a little?

[@arblick]

How many bales you get and how much weight per bale?

[@rocksandoil2241]

sure enjoy the instrumental music over sing songs... and when not loud. Makes a nice addition to a very good video. But I love the sound of the machine...

[@Massey2675]

I know you guys don’t typically do bailage but that’s pretty much all we do right around 6-7 hundred bales a year and we never Ted we like our hay to be between 30-40% moisture and it is always fine if we just mow it and let it sit overnight and it makes beautiful feed

[@HowFarmsWork]

Problem was we couldn’t get the wrapper in time or else we’d have started baling. Another thing going against us was that it was past the boot stage because we couldn’t cut it on time with the rain, which is when you want to cut it if you’re planning to ferment it. About the only thing we’re wrapping it for now is to keep the rain and snow off

[@Massey2675]

How Farms Work understood

[@ukaszmacieja7093]

In Poland, we cut the green oat in May. Now in two weeks it will be suitable for grains

[@dharmn2860]

We just laid down our hay and it’s supposed to rain tonight, two days ago it said it wasn’t supposed to.

[@MrVailtown]

Your wrapping it to ferment , what is desired moisture level under idea conditions for this? Was that milk weed that was mixed in with oats ?

[@HowFarmsWork]

40-60% to ferment, but with the weather we weren’t able to cut it at the right time which is before it heads out. We aren’t so much wrapping to ferment as we are to keep the rain off of it.

[@billylindauer3636]

Will you be using a line wrapper or individual wrapper?
