Mowing New Yard | Farm Week Highlights

[@krenkosenforcer]

Tiktok taught me what TMR is just yesterday! Thanks for sharing.

[@Swindy1794]

You always get a 👍 from me… nobody works harder than a dairy farmer. ❤

[@jayh8490]

the more i watch these videos the more and more respect i have for you and your family, all farmers for that matter. there's A LOT that goes into the day to day process that i wouldn't have thought. example i would think just give the cows grass. but nope there's a science behind it, all the minerals and things. THANK YOU for everything you guys all do, sincerely. The world would stop with out hardworking farmers like yourselves! ( PS sorry about the wildfire smoke from here in canada) lol

[@drk218]

Wow, your lawn looks fantastic! It was fun watching you mow it. 😊❤

[@dougdiplacido2406]

Great looking lawn around the new house. Always fun to watch the different jobs that you do on your farm. We got a lot of that smoke up here in Erie Pa. Smelled really bad. Hopig that you keep getting the rain that you need to keep the crops growing well. Amazing how much science you have to use in order to feed the cows and grow the crops. Great video as usual. Thanks.

[@stromxtc2033]

You put on a clinic on this vid. Lots to "digest". Great job job sir!

[@Dan-qy1rg]

Liked the Toro mower, nice equipment. Those groundhogs are so destructive, we're dealing with a few here too, devastated our garden. Nice job on the feed, good explanation. Thanks for the video, hope you have a good day.

[@Bradley1105]

Good video, our corn is pretty spotty too, been a dry year. Has to be a good feeling mowing your new lawn for the first time.

[@DoubleD.]

I always love when you feed the cows and give them a hat made of feed and they shake their heads and start eating it. Love to watch them chow down, don't know why but could watch every video.

[@derekwpennington1796]

Had no idea how big an area a groundhog can affect. Id carry a .22 in every tractor and pop everyone you see ontop of trapping a few could cost a acre or 2 of lost crops and that csn get costly. Thanks for showing all aspects of farming. Much respect from Maine

[@gurbakshishsingh4563]

Wow. Beautiful ❤️

[@ethankoch4993]

No til is a challenge as a dairy farm especially with running tank spreaders on the fields and harvest equipment plus the cover crop ,definitely a lot of difficulty especially without moisture in the spring

[@sunroofracing]

Outstanding and enjoyable video Eric! Certainly got me thinking about feed and fertilizers. Always something to learn. Thanks for the video!

[@rearlt]

Loved the high speed lawn mowing!

[@Heckleburger]

Looks like a nice green TTTF/KBG mix, just some weed and feed and lots of Morganite to go!

[@geraldkarl642]

Good video, thanks for sharin', lawn looks good

[@steveneal2706]

Awesome video Eric. Thank you very much. Yard looks amazing also

[@stevebiddle8912]

Another excellent video. Your yard around the house is looking really good.

[@janetdupree6353]

Your yard looks very lush. Another great peek into you life as dairy farmer. Thanks.

[@davidbishop4015]

There's always something to do on the farm. I enjoy listening to the science of feeding the herd. You want the best results possible. Great content. Stay safe.

[@TheIvalen]

12:13 Wow didn't realize they made that much of an impact on the crop.

[@swolphatty1643]

the way you moved the broom with the fork lift made me laugh so hard

[@danm2419]

Super cool video, Eric. Love hearing the science behind the feed for te cows in the various stages. Very interesting even though I've never been on a farm in my life. Hope your 4th of July holiday was great!

[@robynmorris7945]

Thank you for showing us how the drop nozzles work…very interesting!!

[@carynix8043]

Nice grass , great to see you getting some rain

[@MichaelBrown-qn9hi]

Here in Tennessee, we find the Ground Hog entrance and his exit, the flood 1 end with water, while the .22 cal is waiting at the end.

[@tonyfrantz9942]

As a fellow Pennsylvanian, you make us proud

[@robertthomas5590]

Glad you got some rain.

[@echoslife]

That's the mower I want! Currently using my gravely 44 HD. But a 4000 series with my ride would be nice

[@beebop9808]

Ground hog is very tasty on the smoker!

[@CK-yi6pc]

Time to plow deep break up that crust and pan😊 🇺🇸🇨🇱

[@AquaSourceLLC]

bro, you're killing mowing like a farm field with a zero turn

[@Scott-rl4xi]

Man it was hard watching you not go back and forth to stripe the beautiful grass ! House looks great though

[@cellfire7907]

4:27 that is like night and day difference!!!

[@Marshall_Weber]

Awesome Video and Much Love as Always 🐄 Man!!

[@martinhiemstra5067]

It would be interesting if you could do a shovel test of that soil for us. You wouldn't think compaction would be a problem with tritcale root networks. Digging will tell the story.

[@odc43054]

That Toro looks like it does a great job. The suspension would make mowing bumpy lawns a lot nicer.

[@kennyirish5021]

Maybe till next year then ? Patch of till looked great like the neighbors 😁

[@beckyumphrey2626]

That no till corn compared to loose fill.tells.the story. I believe till is the way to go.

[@martinhiemstra5067]

I grew up on a farm. Every dog we had would take out the ground hogs and never had to be taught to do it.

[@jackthewisedog5171]

your lawn is already looking mature

[@carolynrose753]

Are you going to add any landscaping around your house in due time or keep it all in grass. Do you have a place on farm growing fruit and vegetables for the families living on the farm?

[@antiquarian3942]

Always love seeing your latest posted video Eric. Watching square bails getting chopped, isn't near as exciting as watching round bales get shredded! 😅 Your house sure looks good, have you been watering your lawn because it looked awfully thick. - Dave

[@d2ndborn]

Great mowing job, you are an artist.

[@joenicoud5967]

The first mower my dad bought in 1965 was a Toro

[@coltonkittelson5414]

I have been running one of them toro zmaster 4000s lately and I love it

[@charleslynch7274]

Wow so much damage from that ground hog great video as always ur new yard looks great

[@tanyajenkins919]

Good seeing you. Enjoy your movies

[@CMDSR]

Your yard looks good Eric. Glad to see y’all finally got a little rain to help things. Let us know how the x-zelit works.

[@trudyeagan8160]

❤

[@MelanieFan1679]

It also seems like a hay chopper would be a good investment..

[@Michael-8903]

We have tried X zelit only on the cows we know can have a rough start. But you have to give them X zelit with something else at the same time or they won't eat. Seems to work

[@davidcantu824]

❤️ ALL YOUR VIDEOS ERIC ❤️

[@glenperry9048]

Maybe you could harvest your lawn for more cattle feed. 😀

[@tildethors4816]

I need longer videos i could watch This all day

[@flvince]

Beans really look good.

[@cellfire7907]

how high can the corn plant get where you can still drive over it with a wheel and recover?

[@alabamacoastie6924]

The yard mowing sequence was cool! Camera on the silo?

[@philipthomey7884]

I think there's a drone and his brother flys it.

[@PaulTighe-e2n]

Nice place Eric, have to have that Nice equipment to do the jobs 👍

[@kirb743]

Because plant science is always interesting, you should mark the spot where the corn is clearly growing better but wait to see if it yields more at harvest

[@stromxtc2033]

That WAS interesting. I wonder if they periodically break out of their no till regime.

[@kirb743]

@@stromxtc2033 growth a month in may not be the same at the time of harvest. Yields and nutrition should be examined at harvest, it may equal out. If it is promising, maybe chisel plow a strip in every field and then see what it is at harvest.

[@PRP13]

Hazy near you. You should see near my place here in Canada. Wild stuff.

[@saxman7131]

I love your grass. I live in north east Florida. Our grass sucks. It’s vine grass or St Augustine. It’s hard on the feet.

[@alithemagicbum]

Might of miss it before, didn't realize that you had your bales custom chopped. How long those 2 bays last? Your lawn looks great!

[@jamesbreault5762]

Good stuff Eric👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@shamrock56gargan96]

I learned how to shoot a rifle an shotgun,shooting ground hogs from the Farmer I worked for when I was a young boy 😊

[@MichaelHolloway]

Groundhogs must eat the young roots from underneath!

[@eliaquim7]

We watched you from Brazil. Big hug.🇧🇷 Algum outro brasileiro assistindo por aqui?

[@burtzorn4059]

Ever thought about Y drops Get that nitrogen close to the plant. Were the roots are.

[@vernonbruce3722]

If I were y'all, I'd start tilling the soil before I planted. May take more time, but the crop would yield better, I believe.

[@r.scotthill3082]

Are you satisfied that you can get a good mix of those small amounts in a vertical mixer?

[@10thgenerationdairyman]

It's a good question I think its mixing pretty well.

[@Bemer0s]

Nice work. Is your farm open to visitors?

[@SonnyHoood]

Have you had a look at deep plough yet, or deep tilling you might call it?

[@janclodvacban1692]

I wouldnt knock on the ni till corn because it gives you a more consistent yield year to year

[@janclodvacban1692]

And also more resilience for the truly extreme events and also stops crusting crusting may nit be the biggest problem ever but in soke years it could very well be difference between making and not making a profit and also it means a lot for some years with time spent in the field weather is getting more and more extream and no tilling in some years could mean the difference between plantig on time or not

[@MelanieFan1679]

Maybe vt in the fall with anhydrous for the spring.. hell idk never grown corn like that lol 😂

[@MrMagnum7220]

Se if you can get a soil compaction probe or just a 1/2” rod and see how hard it is to get in the ground. That’ll tell you how hard your ground is.

[@mikewagar62]

switch your sprayer over to Y drop for side dress

[@bagndux]

By the look of that one group of corn that was planted in the small batch of tilled up ground I would start to till your property.

[@jamesryan9206]

Thank you

[@rayaustin4400]

Hey Eric hope you and the family are well?

[@stonestare6487]

Find a bullsnake put it ina 5 fal bucket. Kick a hole into the tunnel smmaller than the bucket. Tip bucket over the tunnel with the bullsnake inside the bucket, put a heavy rock on the bucket to keep it from moving…Bullsnakes are not poiseness and are constrictors so the varmit becomes dinner…..some people call them a gopher snake great for rats or mice issues in barns

[@matthewsnydershorts8837]

It’s kinda fun to steer a zero turn with one hand

[@nashcobb3056]

thank you

[@DJ-bh1ju]

4:50 Looks like maybe you might re-consider the no-till practice? Farmers here in Western NY are all going no-till, but I really question if it's helping alleviate compaction. Plus, all of the weed seeds stay on the surface and immediately sprout - making it necessary for frequent herbicide spraying. That CAN't be good for ANYONE. The old-timers had it right, I think,- turn it over deep.

[@carlwicks2088]

New camera? Looks very sharp and better picture? Appreciate your videos from Lincolnshire UK 👍🏻

[@paulhannigan7302]

Hope you have better luck with x-Zelit than we did, big fail for us

[@10thgenerationdairyman]

Really? First time I heard someone say that. We'll see

[@douglassmith6448]

On the groundhogs use lifetrap and lettuce

[@imurhuckleberry7777]

Yea the cornstar rethinking no till also

[@thetessellater9163]

The ten seconds after 15:45 took me into a surrealist film noire; weird !

[@farmingfishingfamilyontari2814]

So the DCAD mineral is in the entire ration then the new mineral pack is added to the close up cows? Does that work? I was thinking the new mineral was complete.

[@mikemartin5616]

Negative DCAD was the method of the older ration X-ZELIT is the new ration. Both ways make the cow mobilize her calcium. X-ZELIT just does it different than DCAD.

[@SteveMccarthyAus]

Are you going to spray any fungicide this year ?

[@albertkikstra]

Great video! Isn’t it easier to work with the metric system?

[@ArmpitStudios]

That spot of corn where the top soil was filled in is kind of a sign against no-till, huh?

[@tonyozimek2116]

Could some deep ripping help the crops?

[@jamespetty9545]

Old 4240 to the rescue

[@LoganWisser4430]

Hi Eric I have a question. Have you guys had a problem with the reverse lever on your John Deere, 7220 we have a John Deere 7420 and we’ve had problems with our reverse lever.
