Bagging in the wind 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

** I apologize about the wind again, but it's the same day we had to shut down because it and also for the quick video cuts, but we were in a hurry, and there's nothing i can do about that. 🙂
** I recorded around 1/3 of the video with Google (it takes the wind better) then merged into the Note 20 Ultra (and it doesn't like the wind) 😂
** Normally you don't loose a bag like this, unless it was put on wrong - which apparently was the case. Haha
** There will be videos of what happens when it comes to picking them back off the ground this winter, so hold tight for those.
*** Follow me on Patreon for live and real time updates, plus there's some exclusive videos just for the $5 and up that I post for yeah! As well as Lenses and photos of what's going theses days.
Also Ashtyn and I are in the beginning stages of sampling merchandise which is also on Patreon.

@@mikemitchell2554 No. The farm I worked at Grand Coulee had a small cleaning plant and it was set up to clean the chickpeas and then size them into separate bins. We'd then bag them and ship them out by container. I did the receiving and grading (plus lots more...it's a farm 😉).

It's never a dull day on the farm especially when mike's zippin around. Love the videos mike. Not to knock the 516 but, why not a burt on the bagger? Pto issue 540 vs 1000? That 16" auger would grunt if plugged so why not a burt on the bagger haha. A few bins would cover the cost of 516 ;) lol

[@mikemitchell2554]

Good question.. Because typically the bagger follows us around and needs to be able to move all over the country And keep up with the combines. And then when we are bagging, the guy doing it has A/C and is out of the dust. 😂 The 516 is alot nicer to spend your 14hrs vs the Bert, crazy I know!

[@jeffbrooks6166]

Any word from the dealer about the overheating issue on the Fendt? Just about the same process and problems when we bagged corn silage for the cows. We had to unload the bags with a skid steer into the feed wagon it was not very fun at times mud and ruts after the mud froze solid. We liked them though very little spoilage seems as though we didn’t have any waste. Thanks Mike and team stay safe.

[@tedb.5707]

Looks like this year's bag-site has much better drainage so you'll lose less grain or product to water pooling about the bottom of the bags after the Spring Thaw. You're able to use the elevator at Bracken to ship by rail, or have to road it to elevators in Climax, Shaunavon or Swift Current?

If you take one of the ties that come on the bag and tie the bag end closed like a bread bag then tuck the tie under the bag seals it nicely.

If you filled from the other direction, wouldn't the grain cart be on the outside so you could eliminate the wasted space between bags?

Great question.. But you don't want to do that.. 1: you want to point ur bags down hill for the water to exit.. 2: the extractor we use 50 remove the grain needs more room. And 3: snow will pile between them, so you want ot be able to get snow blower or loader or grader between the bags
