Farmers Making It Rain

[@chuckmyers7698]

Grant has a good outlook on things, good or bad he has a smile for Laura and doesn't get angry. Good person for sure. Thank for the video and hard work the three of you give on all your projects.

[@justbecause9645]

Because their rich farmers.

[@fmeach7711]

Because they are hard working farmers.

[@LJ-zp7ij]

@fmeach7711 well it's a quite easy way they farm in the spring 2 weeks busy and in August, September may be 3 weeks. They grow only 2 or 3 crops which are very easy to grow. But when they can make a good living of that, then they're smart.

[@littlejason99]

Always enjoy watching Laura & Grant, even when it's one thing after another that doesn't work they always have a smile on their faces and manage to have a good time solving the problems.

[@keithhawk1338]

I have grown up knowing nothing about farming. After about 2 years of following you on your journey, you still amaze me with your profound knowledge and work ethics. You have earned a fan for as long as you are able to continue doing these videos.

[@brw9100]

I just wanted to say that I have learned more about farming in the last few weeks of watching your videos than I had learned in my 69 years. I have a whole new respect for farmers and farming. The dedication to your craft, the hours you put in and the amount of work you do is unbelievable. Thanks so much for sharing. Good luck to you, Grant and all the farmers!

[@LJ-zp7ij]

@brw9100 then you should look at video's of real farming operations and not these farms with monoculture crops

[@GlockMan70]

Thank you all for being so wholesome and producing family safe content!!!

[@mattsebenoler9283]

I was thinking the same thing. Love this content love seeing you and Grant together working the farm as a family!

You and your farmer friends are why the world can eat. Thank you.

[@VTSteve]

I think that corn is going to the Ethanol manufacturers

[@crazykev6491]

@@VTSteveit is. Nothing they grow/harvest is for humans that I know of.

[@jamesheuer5139]

It’s a food cycle! Corn will go to feed cattle, hogs, chickens, high fructose corn syrup! 💥

[@LJ-zp7ij]

@Pterodactyl-kn3ve a part of their corn goes to an ethanol plant, with that part they're not feeding the world. When we would eat less meat then all those farms can turn into pasture again and then the cattle can graze on it, then we don't need those valuable drinking water consuming farms anymore.

[@Westie_NZ]

A super fun watch! I've been away from the channel for a little bit, but this was really cool. Laura sure ROCKS!! (Hi, Grant!)

[@neoncatfish4038]

It's been 40 years since I worked on a farm! Before my brother got his pivots, we had a big gun! More or less the end gun on a pivot but super super size!! When you got hit by that thing, you was completely soaked! Y'all stay safe

[@ld5714]

Good afternoon Sunshine! It was great seeing you two today. That's was a long and frustrating day but seeing the pivot putting out that beautiful cover of irrigation was very rewarding and pleasurable to see. Kind of therapudic in a way. Thanks for taking me along with you today. Have a blessed week. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.

[@electricboatal]

Watching this video makes me happy that I no longer have to deal with all of the wonderful things that you just showed us. I had to continually fix broken stuff only to find five more things that needed fixing. I was a rancher in the west and we had to work pretty hard to get enough water on our fields for the feed. We had a half section of oats and a half section of alfalfa. When we got enough rain it was super easy, but typically we had to pump water from our lakes to huge guns just to get a crop. Usually we were just fine, but the rest problems were also ever present. BTW we just had a fire on our farm. The workers were welding on a tractor or implement and sparked a fire through our recently crimped and planted fields. It only burned 2 acres of field and 2 acres of 7 year old yellow pines. We are about a quarter mile from the fire department and they responded fairly quickly and they called in two more volunteer fire departments and Virginia forestry to bring a bulldozer to stop it. Just bad luck! Best Regards Your Pal Al

[@lenawallster8379]

HI Laura! At 22:15 in your video, you suggested to put the cornfield wiew as a wallpaper on the desktop. So I did. It looks greate! I must also tell you, here in Sweden cornfields are not very common, so I´m glad to have one in front of me every day!

[@rodolfomendez6886]

I love the way that you and Grant love to work together ❤️. Stay together as long as you can.

[@Chattanoogachoochoo_0105a]

Laura..hi Angel, thanks for the audio fix. Its perfect now. You guys are the best on youtube! Summertime looks fun there in the corn fields. Looking forward to your next video, take care, sweetie.

[@papajoecooking4425]

I’m 67 yr old welder/fabricator. I work for a factory that built high pressure tanks. Tanks were 8 ft wide by 40 ft long. Never failed while on top of the take something was always forgotten. Trick of the trade. Palm facing upward. With socket wrench even a hammer aim for the nose as you toss it up. The object will not hit the nose but stall just short of the nose catch the object while it is in stall mode! Takes some practice. Love you videos corn looks awesome

[@TUBEllaki]

You are always a very positive person Laura and you have a good family and a nice husband and family. I wish you a good harvest season and strength for your place now and in the future

[@reneprovencher8395]

Nice video guys. Yeah it takes a lot of hard work to keep a farm going!!!! How did our ancestors farm????? Hard hard work. My Mémère was one of 6 kids. She milked 10 cows a day , twice a day, plus planting cultivating, etc etc! All with a horse. I cannot imagine. But we did our farm without a horse. Manual labor. Proud of you guys!!!! 👍👍👍👍

Good morning Laura farms. Qualities like perseverance,inner fortitude and dedicated work!

[@mattsebenoler9283]

I love these videos and can understand the pain of your project today. I have a small 35 acre hunting property that I farm for food plots and stuff and there has not been a single time that i wanted to do something that didn't take at least three trips back to the shed and a trip to the hardware store. God Bless you! Keep making these great videos.

I didn't think it would be long before Laura got wet, Sometimes any mechanical items that haven't been used for a while will decide not to work. Laura favourite animal 'mice' always don't seem to be far away, even mice got to your video. Bring your cat with you! Stay safe everybody, crop looking good, love from Mike. ❤

It’s always hard work on a farm and just about “ programmed “ things go kaput . It’s easy for a lot of us to watch the videos and probably even evaluate how things are done . Like people already suggested > a well stocked toolbox is a must on the Ranger , plenty spare parts and extra Batteries . The videos are well made and thanks for posting them

Corn in my area tasseled starting about the 5th of July. No irrigation - just natures own. Several fields I pass were planted with soybeans - one guy didn't clean his plater very well - lots of corn stalks showing throughout the field. Corn may be a cash crop, but in a bean field it is just another weed.

[@Skinflaps_Meatslapper]

Lots of guys are going more and more to beans just because it's an easier crop to plant. The beans will weather a freeze and stay in the ground until the weather is good enough for them, but corn will grow regardless and die if you get a freeze. Up in Illinois it took them 6 weeks to plant instead of the usual 2 weeks, so things are way staggered out there. Some corn is pretty well done with tasseling, and others haven't even started.

[@OAE7477]

Laura please use some head cover. Heat exhaustion or heat stroke will put you out of action with possibly permanent damage. Glad to see you at least have an ac vehicle in the field.

Show her the mice and she's ontop of anything she can climb and ready to beat them. Even if it's Grant's body to beat them with. Rock, Paper, Scissors is now the selection process for all unpleasant and dangerous situations. Not seniority, not gender, don't worry Gauge. It could be anyone's risk!
