Farming until winter stops us

[@charlestibbey2666]

Thanks Trevor. I do sympathise with your situation and realise what a challenge it must be to get through the winter, especially with Christmas approaching. I am so grateful for all you are teaching us about the realities of farming, I am learning so much!

The JD95H hillside gave good service and so did the 6602H hillside however a dealer said to my Dad years ago if, they had developed the 105 into a 105H hillside It would have been a much better harvesting machine than the 66Hundred machines ever.

[@TrevorStruthers]

105H sounds cool. I wish they did thay

Hello Trevor 👍🇮🇹

[@joelg8004]

Sorry to hear that Trevor. Hope you find something soon. I’m a firm believer that no large machinery should be without a human operator. Wouldn’t take long for things to get out of hand from a malfunction or nefarious hacking. And pretty soon people will lose all knowledge of manual farming.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Yeah, it's scary to think about a tractor on the rampage without an off switch or a person. An operator can still fall asleep though. Especially on GPS auto steer. That can be very boring work without something to entertain you.

I wonder how many subs it takes to just youtube full time.i only have about 350. You make good content and aint camera shy like me.. and your on the other side of the country where theres not any big farm vlogers that im aware of . You definitely have a market to be devolped. . Or you can come to tn and get on a dirt pan crew.. lol

[@TrevorStruthers]

Lol. Yeah it would take a lot more views to make enough money from youtube. One day i hope for enuff to be able to sustain myself with my online stuff. Im gunna need merch and a website and a patreon for that to be the case anytine soon

That tractor you were driving at the end of video was that a Case IH or a green Steiger?

[@TrevorStruthers]

It was an old case steiger

Large farms need to be broken up into smaller farms where it employs more, teaches more, and strethans food security. A great example is the farms in Russia. There is big equipment in Russia, but the majority of grain farms are only 10 to 500 acres, the combines are small, and seed drills are only 10ft to 15ft compared to 40ft on the palouse.

[@TrevorStruthers]

The newest drills even on these hills here are up to 56 feet wide and going like 6 or 7 mph. And its all one pass now so one tractor does the work of two. Or 4 tractors worth of work only 15 years ago is now done by one. Thats a lot less help a farm needs

[@ForrestHaynes-u6h]

All though in few throughout the world, there are people who believe machines are degrading society as they do the work that man should do. Their belief is that if you have work and purpose, there is less time for sinning and more time devoted to doing good. A 56-foot seed drill does plant an impressive amount of land, but think how many people would be out of stealing and drugs if they had land to work and long days of broadcasting seed and plowing. They would also have the harvest and feeling of purpose, not the feeling of being forgotten and unwanted.
