Jumping head first into the farm economy of the 80s and a tractor that didn't make it back home.

Terry and Chris Weisenbeck talking about taking over the farm and buying equipment and really not knowing how tough it really was at the time. A drive home that didn't go as planned. I'll put up a short video of the farm later.

I think adding tours of the farms to these stories would be awesome !

[@martymartin2894]

That's an invasion of privacy

[@RyanKelly-Wititan2]

I put up a short of it. There's also a really good tour of a dairy farm with a 4430

I enjoy toward the end of the interviews when these farmers forecast what the future holds for agriculture, their regrets, successes, etc. Wisdom like this is hard to find. Hope he finds his family 4020, and restores it. That was my first tractor as well-wish I still had it!

My wife and I are trying to start farming, slowly but surely we are going to make it. But with land prices and everything else expensive, it sure ain't smooth sailing for us. But I know it never is. I always enjoy listening to these stories and listening to my neighbors and uncle talk. you all went through har times, it gives me hope because I know you went through it too starting out.

It's never been easy, it's good to hear perspective

I am an old man seen the down fall of the 70's and the crash of the 80's. With today's commodity prices compared to land prices I believe we are in for another crash. Hope I'm wrong but the commodity prices compared to land prices and interest prices is not good. I know there are many young people that will call me crazy old man but time will tell

It is all about the management, when it come to the financial success or failure of the purchase and use of the Harvestore silo.

Some of you might enjoy Homestead Farms: 125 years, it is on KZbin. It gives a nice tribute to the guys parents.

I graduated in 1996 as well

[@jimskull168]

I am in Ontario Canada and in the early sevenths harvester silo's were a thousand dollars a foot then they got the name tombstone silo's because the family farm went under

[@pilsplease7561]

Thats crazy

[@RyanKelly-Wititan2]

Lots of guys were successful with harvestores too

[@bryanginder5903]

Bad management was the fall of them farm not the silo! You could say the same about a concrete silo, red and green paint it was just the management of the farm!

[@geesss8675]

These two men are an amazing documentation of Midwestern farming. Intelligent articulate individuals

[@cynthiaflom1344]

In 1971, built our first 25×80 big blue for $23,000

[@topworkengine5487]

Great video thanks for sharing ❤❤❤💥💥💥

[@martymartin2894]

I was just thinking i hope that man isn't gonna be standing up talking for over an hour, its more relaxed when the person being interviewed is sitting down, especially on long interviews.
