Back down at the farm

Merch:

G'day! Jack has headed down to the farm in Cascade for a few weeks while the station is too wet to get much done.
Join him as he picks up the tools for the first time in many years and helps get ready for seeding.

[@chrisflesser2171]

Jack, your skill set is amazing. From shooting, to WiFi connections, flying a plane, mustering, crop spraying, etcetera. You're an amazing guy. 👍👌

[@duncanm6589]

Good one Jack, “Jack out doing other stuff”. Good to get a detailed view of the spraying and brew up. Just spotted a good looking coloured Greyhound in the background near the end. We have a rescue one, traditional black with 4 white socks, white chest and tip of tail. Currently asleep on the couch next to me, and he takes up the whole couch so I am in the chair next to the couch😂. He has a very good life now.

It's so nice to see a healthy family supporting one another.

[@03.paulbell]

That's really great diversity about farming, fantastic content,keep it coming 👍👍👍

Gday Jack. Just a suggestion look into a NAS at home and you can do everything including editing on the road with a phone, tablet. friends pc anything really. As you have Starlink in place as I do. Your a smart cookie so you could built it your self with off the shelf parts. Under $2000 with loads of storage.

[@Pateramalina]

2000$ ? Jesus christ... You can build NAS for not even half of that xD

[@cozdm7264]

@@Pateramalina 2x wd pro 12gb raid, 2x wd pro 8gb raid $2000, 1tb m.2 cache Low powered nas not a converted computer running old 650 w powers supply, Do your home work factoring in all low power for off grid. Yes you can build a nas for as little as $100 with parts found in the back shed. Or do u want something reliable and be able to edit videos on the fly.

We call it doing a burn down in the states I'm in Arkansas grew up farming it's interesting to see how it is done in other countries I enjoy your channel

[@garytnew7504]

Geeez Jack no doubt about it you know ya stuff mate know machinery and farming no flies on you matey fantastic episode it’s going to be dam interesting watching Jack on the Farm

[@Rachel-ft2bi]

Just read the ABC article and I think the smart farm is a fantastic idea. Would love to see my tax dollars going towards as many remote places becoming smart farms. Not just a government subsidy, a complete 100% government funded program. Its bloody great!

[@chrishare3981]

Nice to see some open flat paddocks again.

[@farminaus9617]

Loved the vid mate, real mix of lifestyles, from eradicating feral animals too feral weeds with 2 different weapons 🌾👍

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi Jack, glad you got a bit of rain out where you live on the other station and it’s also good to see you coming down. Give your brother a hand. Hope everything goes well with these babies delivering keep up the good work. Always appreciate the videos Cliff from Queensland Australia

[@josephrasberry3850]

Cool video I would like to see more farming content along with all the other. It’s just cool to see how much difference there is in the jobs we do between y’all and the USA

[@barryjoel2935]

Great to see the other part of the operation. Keep it up and thanks.

[@glenncolquhoun944]

Thanks Jack for the lowdown on weed spraying, another very enjoyable video

[@ronspalding6946]

Looking good Jack, nice to see what happens in Australia. Watching from Edinburgh, Scotland. Got Family in Kingaroy, Queensland.

[@petelumley1578]

Really enjoyed this one Jack. It’s interesting to see how farms deal with the heat and salty sea air. The rain you had back at the station looked biblical. I assume that dozer will need a complete clean down underneath.

[@robertdensmore1696]

Very good video

[@scottfarrimond4861]

Good episode Jack, can you maybe spend some time detailing the thought process behind the two farms and the pros/cons of the current setup to get beef from paddock to plate? Obvs don't need $$$ values but your family's agribusiness philosophy would be interesting to a non-farmer like me..

[@carlwereld5131]

When you spray in australia during hot weatherget the plants wel time to absorb the spray before it evaporate

[@xuejiaoxu6778]

It is best practice to start early and knock off early before it gets too hot for the chemical to work effectively.

[@user-JT22-250]

Really interesting filling the spray unit. Looking forward in seeing a lot more on the cropping process

[@bobm5500]

I did not know that there was so much to spraying , When I was on the dairy farm my dad would get me clean and spray the channels with a hand pump nap sack spray (1960S). Worlds apart !

[@johnsebar7807]

Always wondered what the reference to "the farm" meant when cattle were being trucked out in older videos.. This video explained it. Golly sorting out the chemical mix rate is complicated. Hope you didn't travel to far before realizing the camera had left the boom. Had to chuckle after it hit the grass and you found it. It will be interesting for you to hear what the girls think of actually being in a class room. Betting home schooling is better but not as fun. Is Danny holding down the fort at home? Thanks for taking the time to pull these videos together.

[@williamsmith5514]

Ranch flooding is good for you and the family , your looking a lot less humbugged mate . Remember God is always in charge , so let be ,O let it be !

Guess who's more famous on ABC news this morning for outback internet 😂😂😂

[@odenttraipser5833]

Yep, congratulations Jack!! Great recognition of the effort you and the family put in. @dougbrooks7476 - Did you take the time to read the related links at the bottom of the article? They were well worth a read too.

[@Quarry4x4]

Jack on your back doesn't sound like fun to me. I enjoyed watching thanks for sharing.

[@LuizMelchiadesPiacentini]

Jack, I watch your videos all the time. I really like them and I have 3 curiosities about 3 things: what brand is your plane. Would it be a super Cub? Another thing, what is the brand of your rifles, and what is their caliber. I'm a wild boar hunter here in Brazil. I'm a retired police officer here in the State of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil. THANKS!

[@homey3051]

Good enough for government work

[@RalphWaite-e8s]

What is the difference between a station and a downs

[@PenDragonsPig-Jam_on_Top]

Watching an Irish/Éireann farmer I learned fodder rape flowers are poisonous, something I never learned in the first 30 years of life living on farms and farming in Cornwall/Kernow. So are the flowers of OSR/Canola poisonous (too munching critters)? It would be weird for between Brussel sprouts, purple sprouting broccoli, cauliflower, Chinese mustard greens and rape oil, mustard seed, and more mustard seed the brassica flower head is inedible.

[@woli6872]

Interesting insights into this kind of work. Bad situation with the roads over there... School is calling because of camel shooting? You can expect the school sending your kids to a psychological examination... 🤨

[@67hr74]

Bit different to the old Super70 spraying Treflan Jack!

[@terrybagatella3898]

Love you work Jack but I just can't get excited about bulk spraying round up. Sorry.

[@mupdog9697]

Jack, if you're gonna give us smoko time in Litres can you at least help a brother out and also give the L/Hr rate? 😅

[@butchphillips873]

I think he said 60l/ha spray solution. 1-2l/ha roundup. 500ml/ ha ester. time stamp 17:50

Stop worrying, RoundUp is very, very safe as found in all court cases.

​​​@@buildmotosykletist1987it's not just that Roundup is objectively safe. But also that Roundup is far, far safer than an chemical herbicide and also enables no-till which has further environmental benefits.
