Ride with Travis - AutoSteer and Applying Anhydrous

[@canvids1]

Thanks Travis, great to see you showing us how things work as well as Ryan.

[@joepolen7212]

Great job Travis, It is so good to see your contributions in the videos. I respect your love for farming.

[@dimduk]

You all do a great job on this channel and show how hard farmers work and what it takes to make a living at it. Thanks.

[@Rickenbacker69]

Great explanation of how it all works, and a fascinating demonstration. I think you and Ryan complement each other pretty well in these videos.

[@bethvv_dd317]

Great video Travis. Thank you so much, we don't use the auto steer but I can see how it would save. Going to show this to Dad and see what he has to say, I can only imagine lol. You look and sound tired I know your busy but get some rest, I push myself all the time and it does catch up to you. Take care and thanks again!!!

[@allenhunt3070]

Thanks for the informative narrative in your video Travis.

[@MrShanester77]

Very nice job Travis! You and Ryan are a good team.

[@kevinwillis9126]

very informative Travis Thanks....

[@johnl8996]

You look beat, Travis. Farming is a tough job, but you (and your family) do a great job showing what really goes on daily. Thanks for the very informative video. Wish they had that eons ago when I was out in the fields.

[@LordMuck]

Well explained and presented Travis. Nice vid.

[@michaelmevs958]

Good job Travis! Keep them coming.

[@hoophil]

Thanks for the ride Travis! Great video!

[@edwarddherde9536]

Travis work on Ryan's camera presentation but he did a great job explaining the nitrogen application he needs more animation in his voice Ryan sorry for the dig but Travis is better with the talking but I love the videos keep up the good work guys thank you for the work you do to help feed our country and giving us a look at how hard you work to feed the world

[@Spaude123]

i'm glad to see you back in the JD were you belong.

[@steveinsc9199]

thanks Travis,enjoyed all your explanations.

[@Swamp46Daddy]

Great video Travis !

[@matth3w249]

Thanks for telling us more about this Travis :)

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Nice job on the video Travis!

[@vladt956]

Good job Travis!

[@stevenreinert7701]

Nice video Travis

[@jeromemiller5262]

Have you looked at upgrading your corn head to a chopping/cutter head? We run those to help with residue management and it makes the VT even more efficient before the chisel comes through.

[@treytonzoss1853]

Great video, Travis!

[@Tyou57]

Hey Travis that way cool you are starting to do the vids with Ryan very interesting vids bro love the family's vids and thanks for what you guys do

[@jacksonhunterandfarmer2673]

Nice vid Travis and ryan

[@waterskiingfool]

Thanks for the show how video Travis

[@farmerrog7816]

Good video!

[@Molb0rg]

Go go Travis, do not be shy ))

[@taylorboy6447]

We us it planting we use adaptive curve going around the field then straight track the rest we have it on our sprayers & combines as well

[@1redneck265]

nice video and very informative

[@stevenreinert7701]

Nice video Travis*

[@neusac4590]

Finally getting to some of your older videos. Travis, do you think I can get one of those things on my SUV, or do I need a tractor. I live in Phoenix. 🤔😉 Nice video.

[@howardyounger5456]

That was very good Travis.that stuff use to scare the heck out of me. When we used it I remember turning it on and off with a rope that was in the 70s do you still have to watch your speed to get the rate right ? We would have the coop set so we would run 5 mph .

[@Northern_Farmer]

Can't wait till I get mine

[@tiipomiike3190]

muito bom parabéns....gosto muito dos seus vídeos...

[@AndersonCattleCo]

Good job Travis

[@chasesblog]

Great video. Do y'all run 30 or 40 inch rows

[@dossjunk]

Saw a bunch of silage in the background at the end. What baler/wrapper do y'all have? Got any vids of that process? :)

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

That's actually another farmer. Not us.

[@bikerchic7938]

As an mri tech we cool the magnets with liquid Nitrogen or Helium. The purpose of this is too cool the machine so that its near absolute zero where electricity flows without resistance. We have to also worry if the magnet quenches and leaks leaks helium or nitrogen as it expands 175 times its liquid amount and displaces the Oxygen in the scan room. If this quench happens with a pt in the bore, we need to break the glass on our door as the pressure from the nitrogen gas wont allow you to open the door. It also displaces the O2 so the pt can breathe The cool temps from the gas can also cause frostbite.

[@57fitter]

Ever have that happen Bikerchic?

[@bikerchic7938]

no, its very rare, they have a vent to vent out the gases, but if the vent fails then we need to force our way in

[@57fitter]

This the portable unit?

[@farmingforfunandprofit940]

We use Auto steer to plant peanuts....Because they will completely cover the field and you will not be able to center on the rows when you invert them...Major difficulties without it.....The tractor will follow the stored program used in planting....

[@phillippeterman1051]

Good job Travis....

[@Tannertraversed]

Hey Ryan/Travis. What brand work boots do you wear? Looking to get a pair that will last. Thanks God bless.

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

Great american, the last great as long as you don't get them wet in the winter. It tears up any boots for that matter.

[@Tannertraversed]

Travman035 thanks for the quick response and the tips. Cheers God bless.

[@SteveHolsten]

Ryan, did Y'all wind up keeping this AutoSteer for the 82?

[@jbmbanter]

Somebody educate me please. Won't the tractor on Autosteer turn itself around at the end of each pass? I think it will and was wondering why Travis was turning it manually. Does the RTK steer with GPS satellites or with repeaters in the area.

[@stevekwaske4612]

jbmbanter Last year had a high school kid show me a new Case IH that was autonomous, he said the computer would beep as it came to the end of the field, then you manually made the turn, hit auto pilot and let go....

[@mykecollins3255]

jbmbanter was my question as well.

[@derekschmucker1609]

jbmbanter the technology for the tractor to turn itself around is built in...however there is a cost to activate it...an annual or hourly subscription that a lot of people would rather not pay for

[@mykecollins3255]

Derek Schmucker makes sence...thanks for clearing that up.

[@derekschmucker1609]

yeah John Deere is pretty bad about that... always milking all the money out of the system that they can. that system on that tractor, between the display and reciever with RTK, you will pay way too close to 30 grand....then you still have to pay for the activations yearly.

[@Connor-qs8bc]

We have auto steer of these in our Magnum 275 and JD 8530

[@courtneyforrest6822]

whats the yellow rope from the tractor to it looks like somewhere on the applicator do???????

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

"Panic Button" you pull that from the cab and it shuts off the gas to the applicator bar if you have a leak or something malfunctions. *Note, I only had to use it once.

[@landismount1746]

I love your vids

[@billwhitman1529]

I was wondering how this would work with strips like you use. You want to respect anhydrous but not fear it. Back in the 70's... as teenagers, we farm kids covered thousands of acres each year. Other than an occasional leak in a valve there was only one accident that I remember and other than stinking up the neighborhood for 2-3 hours, there was no injury that I recall. Like so many things we work with on the farm, as long as you respect it, it is safe as driving a car in the city. (I suggest... safer).

[@BOHDYYYY]

cool video 👍

[@randywilliams787]

Is there a respirator you can wear for it?

[@bubbaluke3368]

we also run an JD 8400T on a 12 or 16 shank

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

when I am planting soybean, if I can get the first run strait then the rest of them will follow that line. distractions of checking seed drops can ruin it real fast since I am manual steer. getting the rows planted correctly makes spraying a lot easier. the auto technology you are showing here is only in my wildest dreams for my farm.

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

I used to think the same

[@jeromemiller5262]

Soybean Farmer if you plant with the RTK, the sprayer will follow your same rows, same for the combine at harvest.

[@JohnDeere7530Plus]

good video. But why do you guys always run the tractor at full trottle (2200 rpm)? I think the 8R could handle that thing with 1700 rpm and 1 gear higher, using less fuel..

[@cmusic52]

niederbayer 95 goin through rough chiseled ground with hills in it it's probly better to over estimate the required power a bit

[@TallTexasGMan]

I know you guys like to do those wearable cameras, but it is not much fun watching the back and forth all the time. Also, do those displays have a video out where you could capture it and show a PiP mode? Otherwise thank you for the detailed information. I like being able to learn about these products while in use. Now, just need small versions for my 1025r. :)

[@hldsagriculture2159]

Belle vidéo

[@justlooking2013]

How many acres you guys farm?

[@57fitter]

So, a higher rate for the continuous corn-- than corn after beans?

[@cmusic52]

57fitter probably for the extra nitrogen corn takes out of the soil compared to soybeans, and I think it takes some nitrogen to degrade the corn stalks

[@57fitter]

With soybeans fixing nitrogen, that's my expectation, too. THX

[@okjd159]

I heard years back of a guy loosing his eye from Anhydrous. I don't think people want a description of what it looked like. It was bad. I would recommend a full face shield, but it is your body.

[@kennethmarlow2731]

I hope you had a good book with you

[@douglaslaramie9245]

JD is making a little barbecue that sits on the buddy seat for making your own lunch. Helps kill the time. Just kidding. LOL

[@daveknepp7718]

Travis, I believe you can take Ryan in a wrestling match.

[@camerongallant1125]

Why isn't the steering wheel moving on autosteer, cause I remember on the new holland it moved the steering wheel on autosteer

[@jasonrowe268]

Cameron Gallant the 8r is fully integrated so steers from the hydraulic steering valve not the wheel. Your new holland probably had a retrofit steering unit mounted to the steering wheel itself.

[@BagwellFarms]

Good video travis looks like you need some sleep haha

[@adamoffen788]

Travis sounds like he has been up for a while, maybe take a nap?

[@farmallskittle]

farmers don't have time for naps until the off season if you do only crops if you do livestock there is no off season

[@cmusic52]

Adam Offen if he was trying to beat the snow, naps don't happen until the weather hits and force a break

[@9530tPOWER]

guys forget a+b on tracking mode. switch to a+heading. north=0 degrees East=90 South=180 west=270. pick any number you want, no need to drive across the field the first time

[@bubbaluke3368]

we have a foot peddle for turning on the applicator

[@dallascoppernoll8543]

how come Ryan doesn't have the camera

[@thomasdaniel6495]

There is a video on you tube of a state trooper responding to an accident involving a tank of anhydrous and got a puff blow into his face and is dead in 27 seconds.It pays to be extremely careful with this stuff.

[@Fishingwisconsin2012]

Them new 8R series with the IVT are pretty darn gutless if you ask me leased a 8245 r and our 8410 out that thing to shame wish they would make most of them power shift get more power to the ground

[@antonilic8224]

Koliko hektara obraduje farma

[@illinoissandfarmer4726]

Why you guys going so slow does the 8235R hate it that much

[@bradsteigerwalt6718]

Fanter Farms Most likely due to the rate of anhydrous the toolbar puts down.

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

I'm applying in chiseled ground. it's kind of rough to be going to fast

[@illinoissandfarmer4726]

Brad Steigerwalt that shouldn't matter they are running the ravens it will adjust the rate according to the rate of speed that's what that hockey puck is for, I run 6 mph putting on 180 units across chiseled ground but our R series has the front suspension and the suspended cab.

[@bradsteigerwalt6718]

Mm I'm not a farmer myself but I'd guess that's what it was. Does seem a bit bumpy!

[@illinoissandfarmer4726]

Travman035 you should run a R with the front suspension and the suspend cab ours runs 26 down the road you don't even feel a bump. How do you like the greenstar over the new Holland steering I personally like greenstar the best

[@dk9628]

scary stuff...good video. I would be nervous of it without a mask.Thats just me.

[@cmusic52]

Danny Kanyo yah I'd probly find some super insulated rubber coated gloves too, don't like the idea of it getting to my skin

[@myronparks3495]

Make sure you have water with you in case something does happen.

[@vimtodemon]

Considering the potential dangers of this stuff, would it not be worthwhile hiring someone else to do it?

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

All boils down to cost. A certain amount of risk is involved in all farming. I saved a custom application cost doing it myself, with the added benefit of knowing that it was done to my standards.

[@northeastnebraskafarming117]

U do realize bars like those r meant to be pulled 5 or 6 mph

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

The field I was in didn't allow for that speed. I'm in a field that's been chiseled already and is rough to drive on let alone apply NH3

[@thedonleroy]

Anhydrous is dangerous. I had a neighbor of mine years ago who damn near lost his eyesight from exposure to anhydrous.

[@shawnfox8002]

Travis do you not have a bull to breed the cows or heifers or do you artificial inseminate or not artificial inseminate.

[@joeyouruncle9850]

first

[@trystanwilliams6913]

joe your uncle oh for gods sake no one cares

[@BigWater59]

Autosteer seems to be a waste of time. Farmers eye is the best tool he has...

[@TheRestOfTheStory]

Eyes start to get a little tired after 16+ hours in the seat
