It sure is a lot more fun combining oats here in front of my computer screen than when I was a kid on the farm and Dad had me up in the hopper pushing the oats around amidst a Pigpen cloud of itchy dust.

[@MeadowFarmer]

All your hard work is paying off. It's amazing the effort it took to get those fields into shape, burning slews, draining dams, breaking the soil, and all the rain. Thanks for sharing it all with us. 🥰

Thanks to Donovan for filming from the Magnificent View Drone.

Just needs some music and it would be perfect

[@spectralducklin]

@@Matthew-nc9vm everyone are different and I respect that. I liked it when there was no music. But, some calm music would be somewhat good too.

"Work hard, play humble". What a hugely appropriate slogan for you to wear Mike, and your observations over Thanksgiving were very moving. I admire your work ethic, and your faith, and the way the two so obviously interact. Thank you Mike, and God bless you and your lovely family....especially Chapel!

[@davehaugsten9427]

Mike, that was an awesome drone footage. We got to see a view that is different and you don't even get a chance to see. Very well done and it was interesting to see the header Flex up and down and pivot from that angle. Thank you to all the people that get together and make this possible.

[@kentmathieson1342]

Congratulations on wrapping up harvest Mike. And thanks for bringing us along for the ride. From Manitoba.

[@danadams8718]

Oats always made money for us due to smaller amount of fertilizer that was used and still yielding 100 to 140 bushels an acre.

[@haydenfarms]

where at??

[@wideslammer]

Mike, it looks like your combine can harvest oats faster than what I remember when helping my uncle on his farm when I was a kid. (I'm 76 years old now.) One of the nearby farmers owned the threshing machine and other neighbors pitched in to bring in the shocks of oats from the field where they had been drying. My job (along with my brother) was to push the oats (with a shovel) out the back of the oat wagons into a small steam-powered elevator that dropped them into the granary. Times have changed, although we probably had better noon-time meals. Roast beef, mashed potatoes, choice of vegetables, creamed cucumbers, and choice of cake, pie, and/or ice cream. The wives of the farmers who were helping brought some of the food to my uncle's farm. The whole group would move onto the next farm when they were done. GREAT MEMORIES.

[@mattWallJsy]

Thanks for sharing what you do too!

[@wayneinnc5379]

It is so great to see some real farm equipment in RED!! Sometimes people are tired of green paint.

[@marshalloutdoors1791]

So glad you are having a good harvest Mike & family.

[@AnnArborBuck]

The time lapse drone shots were awesome. Very cool way to see how the process is done.

[@typhoonjenkins8330]

Really amazing footage in this one, Mike. Glad your oats turned out good. It's amazing to see the actual difference in yield between the fert and unfert crop. Wishing you, Ashtyn, Chapel, and the entire Team Mitchell Family a wonderful Holiday Season. Thanks for all the great content throughout the year. God Bless our farmers all around the world.

[@frankkirby5763]

Mike, the drone footage is amazing. Thank you very much.

[@johnc8112]

Great to watch a true professional in his fields. Great video keep up the awesome work you do with your family and crew.

[@Jeffstheguy]

I’m thankful for you Mike. Keep on posting. You have the best content! I own a 60 horse facility and grow hay. I also build fence for the horse and cattle industry 35 plus years (System Fencing). After a very long day. I love sitting back and listening to you. The way you speak of family and the love of what you do is my favourite. Happy Harvest

[@mikemitchell2554]

Thanks Jeff!

[@thomasvogelgesang667]

Mike, I thank you for taking me along on your journey. I have an excellent application for farmers. The drone footage was super. I am happy that you are finished with your crops. You will rest for two minutes, then hit it hard again. Stay safe.

[@7rixee]

Nice you got some nice fields and yields to finish off the season. Thanks for uploading great videos :)

I am THANKFUL too that the good Lord gave you and us a great crop, hence We can all be thankful and "HAPPY THANKSGIVING" Thanks for the awesome videos once again.

[@erickamekonapeper4007]

I am honestly thankful for you Brother Mike Mitchell you are a WONDERFUL BLESSING for us all and you have taught me such a good amount of information about Farming I would have been exposed to growing up with it. I didn’t but my Father did. He was Farming in Nebraska and Minnesota and here in Washington State. He was a Pharmacist for his Career but he retired and he got a Farm and Fields. He leases the field to his neighbors who have a Dairy Farm. I will have it someday. I plan on trying Farming. Probably Corn 🌽 in the Summer and I don’t know what exactly. We have lots of time to figure it out. He’s in Sumas Washington. His Northern Property line is a Canadian Field 😏 I love looking up the Mountains and seeing the cut out Border line straight through woods! 🙂 Thank you Brother for teaching me things I need to know I love you and God Bless you and your Family!❤🖖🏼🇺🇸

[@paulhardy7561]

Fantastic video again, pleased you nearly finished harvest. It be great if we could have updated of what your family getting upto at the South farm . Hope asten and chapel doing well.

[@GravyHucker]

Mike is getting all fancy with the drone shots now! Pretty place up north there.

Hello Mike,,,, thanks to sharing your work... Nice vids from the drones.

[@pioneerfarm4369]

LOL the oatmeal sure is good this morning got to have farmers like you to have a good breakfast and coffee thanks for your hard work just saying.

[@verlinswarey507]

I was actually eating steel cut oats this morning for breakfast while watching this. I didn’t even think about the connection until I was finished!

[@knirvisser377]

I loved the drone shots! Thanks for the good content!

[@leddielive]

Why do I suddenly fancy a steaming hot bowl of tasty porridge? Topped off with a dash of sugar & a blob of fresh cream, hmmmmmmm!

[@notyou6950]

Can you imagine harvesting this by hand like they did in the old days? Scythe all day then pick it up and make stacks by hand. Then carry it off the field and tresh it all with sticks and so on...

[@dondemaison9609]

Mike, I have witnessed you on other occasions taking a moment to Thank Our Lord. You are a Testament to what Joyful work and giving thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ does for a man. Stay Safe.

Your Fields are Gorgeous. Wish I was there combining there with you!!

Hey mike! Your neighbour here as we farm about an hour west of Medicine Hat Alberta, love seeing your videos man keep it up! Be sweet to come check out your farm at some point!

Hey Mike Great video Always a good feeling when your getting close to finishing Pity about the lost Case footage. Would have been great to see a good machine running. 😀 God bless you all

Whats this!? Mike Mitchell with drone footage...sweeet! Thanks!

[@John-nc4bl]

Mike, TATA for all the interesting videos that you produce. On the 50' JD head, does the reel parallel the cutterbar during up and down movements of the head.

[@erickamekonapeper4007]

You sure got lucky with your Hand! He’s wonderful and thoroughly careful! I appreciate that and how nice he is to you and helping you with video production is a nice extra. God Bless him and you! I love you Guys! Be careful! ❤😏🖖🏼🇺🇸

[@robbertboon242]

Thanks for sharing Mike!!! Really interesting to see how things goes in Canada compared with the Netherlands where cereal crops are just there for the soil rest and vitality. Never here you speaking about rentability. Maybe an interesting topic for later times. Keep going like this. Really appreciate this.

[@coreyneal3705]

Drone footage and a good crop? Am I watching the right channel?

[@charlesvaughn9055]

Good video God Bless 😁

[@John-nc4bl]

At 19.19 mins into the video and onwards while unloading of both combines, the grain flow out of the Case spout is smoother than the spiralling flow of the grain from the JD combines spout. Maybe the reason for the different flow patterns is a difference in RMPs of the unloading augers, spout profiles or how far the unload auger extends inside the pipes. On a hillside when unloading the grain, some 'spiralling' or coning out of the grain is so extreme that some of it is missing the side(s) of the cart. Just another idea, - a splitter inside the spout on some combines that cone out the grain from the spout would help to straighten the flow as it comes off the end of the auger.

[@peterhoppe7834]

YOU ARE AWESOME MIKE LOVE AND RESPEKT FROM DENMARK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ahallmounsey]

[@leddielive]

Hi Mike, oat prices are quite good & rising due to a bit of a shortage recently so not only is your yield pretty good (100 bu per acre approx) it looks highly likely to turn a profit for you too. You deserve it after all the hard work & effort that's been put in, so thanks for taking us all along with you & we're looking forward to a whole lot more great videos to come. 😀🇬🇧

[@Northern_Farmer]

There is plenty of oats this year..prices have crashed..4.00 oats now

[@leddielive]

At harvest time of any crop the price is lowest, but by bagging & binning crops you can avoid those issues. The only crops I know of that occasionally peak in price at harvest are root crops carrots /parsnips after a heavy frost preventing harvesting, supply and demand drives most markets.

[@Northern_Farmer]

@@leddielive yea but to drop from 9 dollars to 4 is a bug drop...it was because of the drought

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Almost done

They look like clean oats...did you only spray glyphosate 1 time before seeding ? Or did you spray anything else before hand and/or during thr growing season?

She's a savage machine Mike but I still prefer the mean look tracks give them but the tyres are understandable why more practical well wear to ya lad

[@wick_ham69]

Drone was sweet

[@chipmunk94]

Did you have Travis help with the 9120 because you were going to lose your mind if you didn't finish or is just not worth the money to bring up your other X9 or the S680?

[@Len_M.]

Yeah those first 2 Years can be scary. My Nephew had 3 Daughters and finally had a Son about 6 months or so ago, they lost him the night of the 23/Morning of the 24th to SIDS I can’t even begin to imagine what they are going through right now. 😢

[@mikemitchell2554]

😳 Wow that's terrible! And I cannot imagine 🥺

[@HeHe-tb5mb]

It’s so crazy to me that it can harvest with the much head at 5.2 mph I’m running a 9560 jd combine I think it’s a 2007 model and 3-3.5 with 25ft of head is fast Could never imagine running up to 6 mph

[@matthewshaw3718]

Looking at your counters you put 4000ac on the south farm x9 and 2000 on yours, that’s a lot of combining. Top effort by you and all your team 👍🏻

[@pravindabhade3028]

Love from india

[@chesterwass6838]

The new case combines have the fastest unload rate I think its like 4.5 bushels a second where the s series is 3.8 I think th old 9120 have 3.2 or so

[@keithauer4548]

Good to see you got a REAL combine on the property now lol now if only you had a GLEANER lol

The Case footage got accidentally deleted? I don't know, Mike...Freud said there are no accidents....

[@mikemitchell2554]

😆😆🤷‍♂️

[@gavinperry7237]

My understanding is John Deere certainly needs to do some work on their combines to get better results with Canola. The geese also like the fact that the green machines throw over some peas
