First Truck Unloads Into New Feed Mill!!

[@ryang6026]

Good thing my truck was clean that day! I’m glad I got to deliver the first load into your new feed mill. It was a pleasure meeting you Jan, and great job on the videos!

[@patriciamuskevitsch8359]

You have to be a Jack of all trades to be a dairy farmer, I'm impressed

[@tidelovinyankee1368]

When you opened the door to the large hammermill building, I was expecting a huge piece of equipment inside, comparable to the rest of the equipment. You have lots of storage space in that building. You have a huge investment in all that equipment; I hope it serves you well. I enjoy watching the multitude of tasks you perform on a daily basis to keep the business going.

[@WaldosWorld]

Weird way #1106 to stumble upon your channel: I was going through and deleting some old spam comments (the telegram message scam) from my videos when I saw that one of the scammers changed usernames to impersonate *your* channel instead of mine. Curiosity got me and here I am. Cheers 👍

[@lstephensudhop3500]

I really appreciate all the trouble and time it must take for you to set up a ton of shots from many view points to keep your videos interesting! Great job. I watch them all.

[@thomasmccardle725]

Always a Very long hard days work on the farms around the world and your dairy is no exception! Thanks for finding the time it takes to take us along with you Jan. I think of you with every glass of milk and bit of cream for my coffee, butter on my bread and in my recipes! So many times I’m giving thanks to you and all the farmers! Please stay safe and keep Well!!!

[@MrDutchVegas]

I am always amazed how good youre editing is. It is actually really good. I also like youre choice of music in between. Its upbeat cheerfull. Great as usual.

[@lynstoneham]

So interesting seeing how it's all done that feeding system must have cost a fortune Jan

[@CoopMauKona]

The ingenuity of the human mind on full display in your setup. Incremental efficiency innovations allows so few people to get so much work done.

[@flubber6667]

Hey you find people up north that's one hell of a set of I'm glad you finally got it running I was curious to see how it worked God bless man good job stay safe 👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲✌️

[@Supernaut2000]

Just think about what you’ve just watched here the next time you get a glass of milk from the fridge. Amazing isn’t it?

[@MellowYe77ow]

It's more than just a glass of milk. Cheese, butter, ice cream. Anything dairy.

[@isaacfehr5448]

Where I work we build those tele swing’s as well. I’ve helped assemble lots. Matter of fact we are just starting this years build next week.

[@albertbuikema4451]

Did you hear that the dairy farmers of Ontario sponsored the Toronto maple leafs. There jerseys have milk written on them this season. Kinda neat considering that the only food advertising you see tends to be mostly super processed garbage these days

[@michaelsutherland5848]

Hey Jan, our more docile beef cattle LOVE being rubbed in between the shoulder blades. We don't have a brush installed, so yours might not appreciate it as much, but give it a shot, see what happens!

[@garyberg]

Glad to see everything went well with the first truck. You never know how things will go the first time, doing something new.

[@jofarwell9744]

Jan, another great action packed video! Thanks for sharing about the cow behaviors, personalities, and fun facts! Makes me appreciate my glass of milk more! It would be interesting to see the harvest results of your new farm fields from that sprayed precious liquid 'gold' next year. Don't forget to remind us and show some comparisons maybe. Your new efficient feed mill is a wonder! How much do you plan to increase the herd in the near future with such feed expansion? Or was your plan merely for cost savings--which I would be interested in the percentages. Were you inspired by your California dairy farm operations tour and will there be sufficient profit to recoup the expense quickly? Fabulous editing as always!

[@TobiTrans]

Awesome grain setup. Farm is growing. Congratulations

[@michaelcollins6851]

I will never be able to forget all those cold clouds of smoke cold air coming in the doors in the winter and you saying the cows will sweat insane and I feel so bad for the ones outside ha ha

[@rickjanssen5942]

Nice set up. Should make feeding a lot easier.

[@sunroofracing]

Excellent video Jan! Congratulations on filling the first bin of the new Grain Project! Well done for completing manure spreading as well!

[@edmo43]

Thanks Jan for sharing the new episode of the first truck unloading at the new feed mill, wonderful.👍🤟

[@montyklaus7223]

I never forget to run when I pull the crap handle!!!!!!!!

[@donalddalrymple414]

Excellent video always so well put together I have loads of respect for you all nice to your lovely sister hard at work say hi from me.😊

[@Dextamartijn]

Nice to see the new setup work well

[@CranialAccess]

Another fantastic video Jan! Great videography, appreciate your many different shot angles. That grain storage area is amazing! Are you a part owner of the farm yet?

[@harrytaylor6854]

yes very good video nice to see the new bins and unloading first truck in action well done sir Jan

[@CurrentChoices]

And NO Dutch words!!

[@sharrodthibault9805]

Pretty cool to see the new plant in action!! Lookin forward to seeing the kinks worked out!!

[@tinachambers4887]

Hi Jan enjoyed the show have a great day love from TEXAS

[@michaelg.5862]

Jan, I believe your father said in a past video that all the machinery and equipment are “necessary evils” in order to run your operation. I’m guessing that the larger bin storage is to be able to buy more feed and commodities when the prices are favorable plus enough on hand for feed security for the herd. Great video!

[@homey3051]

It looks like you need to extend that concrete pad out about 10 feet and the side with the corn spill about 5 feet. It will help when everything turns to mud

[@icebabysnocain]

Nice to see it all together and working for you. Do you weigh the delivery truck before you off load it? You were very nice about the latching mistake. I'm sure she won't forget again. Good video. Pax.

[@JHruby]

Very nice bin and mill system. That will work well for the farm for decades. Also, I feel like your dad deserves a pair of coveralls with the Saskdutchkid logo.

[@dm55]

Using your favourite adjective, "that's a sweet setup." 👍 How long did it take to unload the B-train?

[@garycountryman5412]

Growing up I would have loved to have your spreader and loader versus a pitchfork and a converted horse drawn grown driven manure spreader. Thanks for taking us along on your day Jan.

[@lylestavast7652]

Always something to learn on new equipment/setups... do those drop chutes on the trailers have volume settings that you can see to open up to get specific flow volume to match the augers/conveyors or is it just by sight ?

[@jamesryan9206]

It is nice to see the project progress and see the first delivery. Jan I guess it is a good thing you’re not afraid of heights that was a nice shot from the grain leg.

[@bryanway7231]

I'm curious with that setup how long did it take you to unload that truck?

[@Michael-fd8ob]

Looking good to me. Nice to start getting bins filled

[@Nappylou69]

rad setup you got, was wondering how the whole system was going to work.

[@billb4631]

Howdy! from Florida. Appreciate the time and effort you take to provide these video blogs. Enjoy watching the workings of your farm. Take care of yourself and family.

[@asquithmainlines699]

I can see there will be a little bit of a learning curve to the new bin setup. I am sure some head scratching as well. Hopefully you can get it all sorted before the snow flies. If everything is full will it make the winter?

[@Lukelins1]

I had a day at work were one thing after another just would not go right

[@fredwrite]

Must have picked up that load nearby. I remember hauling DDG a hundred miles or so, and it was so packed you had to chip it out of the hopper with a shovel.

[@robb1460]

And Last today. If a cow breaks a leg or dies. Or you need to put it down. What happens to the cow? And does the farm have a special cow that everyone loves? And like just floats in the herd.

[@deadghost1964]

SHUSH up, hippie

[@randallmidgley7589]

Well done team, first load never goes to plan, it's all a learning curve. That's truly a sweet operation there, your barns looking great. Enjoying your content.

[@Gonefishen]

Here in Aus we call them B Doubles we also have Triples servicing major cities, out west we have road trains up to 7 or 8 trailers.

[@robb1460]

@8:50. What does a truck load like this cost. How long will it last for your ladies? Do you and your family process some to eat?

[@jimutt6889]

how is the new worker from Ukraine doing?

[@danny88dh]

I really hope the ice snow and cold doesn't mess with the new bin setup in any way its definitely quite the setup pretty cool

[@x_Dude1]

Driver is inpatient but what else is new. Bins & hammer-mill is good progress. After a while you operate those as a 3rd arm.

[@philhall5609]

Wow!!!! Long day. Hope you don't have to milk in the morning. Great set up. I would have to put numbers all over each Ben. Or I would screw it up. Great video as always. What a state of the art set up. Great job.!!!!!!!

[@marcplaisted6511]

How do you plan to protect the exposed conveyor from snow and ice so it doesn’t freeze up?

[@CurrentChoices]

Is THIS a Winter Operation on bins?

[@Bortnoone]

Adding music while you feel the bin is a nice touch

[@nwpioneer2551]

Good shots. Great video.

[@flatbedtruckergaming2974]

That's a really cool setup you guys have going on now

[@rdyardie]

Watching you spread the solid manure recalled a university professor who said, "Little man so spic and span, where were you when the - - - - hit the fan?" 🤣 That particular professor was not very noteworthy, but I do remember that line and it is not even an "original".

[@pocketchange1951]

👍👌❤🇨🇦, another Sask boy, me too

[@ziauddin7948]

[@robb1460]

@13:43. Can a field get over manured? Or do you have enough land to the cow numbers it's not an issue? Do you sell to the farmer that can use it?

[@deadghost1964]

Ya barking too much!

[@debdunster5471]

Odd question for you:. Are the grain bins grounded in case of lightning strikes?

[@henkjanssen186]

It is still very dry isn’t it. Hope fall rains come! Good video

@13:01. How do you tell how full bins are?

[@eldonhoward7925]

👍

[@chrisgilbert2152]

been a couple shitter couple weeks!!

[@Wulffe]

Why did you guys decide to use that extendable conveyer over a grain pit? It seems that there is plenty of space for a pit. I mean, you must get a few angry truckers from that setup due to the fact that it takes long time to unload, and the drivers has to stay watch the trailer empty.

[@ChrisMullis785]

I’ve been meaning to as about the manure boat is it remote controlled or does someone have to be on it

[@MellowYe77ow]

It's radio and GPS controlled.

[@walkinglegend]

Not sure if you have answered this, but why did you guys go this route instead of a drive over pit or hopper?

[@keydanTheMan614]

Love the vidjas

[@jamesbarry4324]

The was really great. Hope your Dad was pleased. Thanks.

[@grantsenio3923]

With your hammermill is there a sensor that shuts of the drag conveyor so you dont overload the mill?

[@ralphvelthuis2359]

Yes, they have sensors. Once the grain trips the sensor it will start a timer and the auger restarts again after the time you set is reached.

[@grantsenio3923]

@@ralphvelthuis2359 yes that’s same thing with our farmatic mill. I was curious because the mill he has is quite different from my mill. Judging by the setup they must adjust feed amounts at the bin for the ration, where as with our setup all the augers flow in from the roof and there is an accuportaner. I was trying to compare the two mills

[@ralphvelthuis2359]

@@grantsenio3923 quite a bit different from the mill i was used to also. Tiny compared to what i was used to. But i guess you know all about them then. Thought at first you were just asking general questions as someone who's never seen one before.

[@ApophisApr]

Does the hammer mill do anything to the grain or is it just a connection point for another conveyer/blower system?

[@MellowYe77ow]

It basically mills the grain (Barley, wheat, corn, and/or rye) into flower/meal. Making it easier for the cows to digest.

[@rdyardie]

Would it be possible to label some functions to help a person remember? . . . just wondering. 😊

[@JD-9600]

Could you please send me information about that extending auger. Please...

[@jastewart9766]

How come you didn’t put a grain pit instead of the belt to load the leg, great job on the videos

[@EFCasual]

Easily 20,000 reasons.

[@davidcantu824]

[@michaelcollins6851]

I wonder what all you will be storing in all those grain bens ??and how much man I just can't believe you are thinking about cold weather and snow I hate cold weather that's why I'm in Alabama

[@MellowYe77ow]

The 2 larger bins up front will hold dry distiller's grain and beet pulp. The 4 bigger bins in the back will hold things like: Barley, corn, wheat, and/or rye for milling. The smaller bins near the shed will hold the milled grains from the hammer mill. The bins across from them will hold things like mineral feed.

[@wink9970]

Miriam (sp) sure is a talker on camera

[@roberthakeman9822]

Jan How many loads of liquid manure did you get out of the pit. ? You might want to find a tarp for the hopper on the truck hopper unload !

[@winnileesboy]

hi Jan, did i miss it, but I'm guessing the crawler is remote controlled. I watched the clip a couple of times if it's not, the person who operates must be very tiny!

[@MellowYe77ow]

Yes, it's radio and GPS controlled.

[@dieterbosch723]

Hello Jan, thanks for your video, oh my ground frost in FENDT Bavaria Land.

[@rebelgaming7718]

That is a fancy setup you got there buddy

[@robb1460]

@12:23. Why do you hammer mill stuff?

[@MellowYe77ow]

Cows don't digest grains well. The grains give them the extra energy that they need to produce the most milk. The grain is milled, so that the cows can digest it properly. You can see what happens if the grain isn't milled properly if you search the channel for the video titled: "We Could've Lost Production Because Of This!!"

[@nancysmith8095]

Must keep Traditions.

[@davidcantu824]

LOVE ALL YOUR SASKDUTCHKID

[@Wombbatts]

It always strikes me how crappy the distributor system is on grain legs. It is screaming for sensors / switches and a panel of lights at the bottom and / or control house that light up based on which bin it is set to feed to. That and some sort of bin and what is in the bin display. There have been some unfortunate accidents like dumping 8,000 bushels of beans into a corn bin because there is no display of what is in each bin, leaving everybody on the farm to remember what is where and when a bin changes for some reason, getting that info distributed and memorized again. Both terrible systems process wise.

[@asquithmainlines699]

I was thinking the same thing, the margin for error might be pretty big. I would be nervous as heck for the first little while until I got comfortable and screwed things up royally.😂 I am sure the automation side of it would come with a steep price tag though. Even then I think Larson’s had that happen last year.

[@Wombbatts]

@@asquithmainlines699 you can get either proximity or small weather proof roller switches for $30 usd or less, a lamp for $5, a power supply for $30 and a white board for $40 to keep track of what is in which bin. If the manufacturer sells the automation to you they will charge $30,000 for $500 of parts. I used to be an electrical engineer and automation specialist for a company that made million dollar machines, stuff like this isn't rocket surgery. Additionally the selected bin lamp circuit could switch the fill limit sensor to the hammer mill automatically removing another source of error.
