#Farm #Illinois #Fall #Harvest #FarmingSimulator22
Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

I’m very interested in the past to present soil tests. I know how universities can be influenced by money for leverage. Hopefully it is a double blind study with samples that are not tampered with. You put out great educational videos! Keep it up the good work! We have 8R 410’S that I really like if there is a choice between the 7000’ s and 8000’s the 8R’S win!

The Command Pro is amazing. Once you get used to using it you won’t want to run anything without it. Congrats on the new tractor looks well taken care of.

[@chrissyfrancis8952]

From all the tile work I’ve seen over the years, the cost of labor is what really hikes the price. Which is why a lot of them bite the bullet, buy a tile blow & do it themselves. Ben(IowANFarmer) seems to really like running tile. He went to Ohio to help Brown’s Farm lay tile a few years ago, extra hands always helps. What’s really cool about laying or repairing tile is the water starts running immediately in wet fields

[@korabgashi3894]

[@battleensignfarms]

I've been raising chickens for most of my life. Those chickens are about half-grown in the video. And they have enough feathers to them that you can tell roosters by the tail and neck feathers. Roosters will begin to have pointed feathers, especially with the tail, that will make it easy to tell them apart. What I saw in the video pointed to all of them being pullets.

[@kevinhaycraft4595]

Good luck the equipment shuffle is my favorite all the farm family’s I watch go through it.i was going say hope everything starts but I kinda knew everyone goes through that as well.

[@DV-mj5yi]

Once you get used to the ivt you will really like it. I found the command pro to be much less confusing than the fendt system. Really once I did all the settings it wasn’t to hard for the older generation to run

[@davidthorne2129]

Hi from oz Andy. You’re doing well to get that tractor with so few hours on it. But, my friends and I are stunned that you American farmers have so many tractors and put so few hours on them. My last 3 tractors I’ve bought new and averaged at least 1000 hours per year on them. My latest fendt clocked over to 3600 hours on its 3rd birthday from delivery. I’m assuming that your extremely short work windows are the reason. Where as out here we don’t have short windows. For example with wheat we have 1st may opening date for sowing with optimum finish end of June. But are able to keep going till mid August but the yield starts to drop of.

[@tompunch]

Thanks for the video Andy! Are you up for talking about the long term future of the farm and your older family members intentions with it once they step away from farming? Is your sister going to become more active in the day-to-day operations? Are you going to bring in outside help? Also interested to understand the logistics of how they step away when it comes to financials, ownership etc. Just an idea. Hope is all is well bud!

[@mathasson2141]

The command pro is a function for function copy of a fendt. I enjoyed using it even being a fendt guy

Andy, we have two 8R tractors a few years old, both have I’ve transmissions. They take some getting used to, but like them. Worst is backing up to a tool, can’t feather the clutch to get the pin in. Hope for a quick recovery for both your parents.

[@8430IVT]

Don't use the clutch, slow your speed with thumbwheel and use the brakes.

[@knudriis8367]

I also bought AG1.. after you told me about it. have been drinking it for about 20 days but it tastes too much of grass. so I've stopped doing it again.

[@agger838]

So it tastes just like it looks lol

[@mungogerryjnr]

Cool vid as usual bro! That’s definitely an awesome tractor,only bettered by adding front linkage and weight block just well To look cool😂😂 Look at adding a tickle charging system running off solar on top of room for all the batteries in the shed. Doesn’t matter if it’s new,old or whatever.Batteries discharge and once they past that point and stay there they are stuffed. Tickle charging is a plug and forget and never have a flat or dead expensive wasted battery again system As always Small up front investment But long term sweetness! Hope ya Dads op goes well and prayers for Mother😂😂😂

[@roberturich5346]

IVT, for planting, is the slickest transmission avaliable. Hard pulling just feels more sluggish, even though I believe the hp figures are within 2-3 hp of powershift usually.

[@Billylivessomewhere]

A potential video idea for your down time, try and get your Dad and Uncle to sit down and talk about how they've seen farming change? What do they like or dislike about how it has developed? Would be great to listen to them.

Would love to see the difference in the soil samples as far as tillage goes organic matter does no good on top of the ground every five years if you were run, bottom plows through every inch of your grounds, you will see a hellacious difference in yields

[@RickyCervo]

8R signature 💛💚 absolutely amazing!! Why you don't have look for an RX? Too much distance between farm and various fields?

[@user-ug7mk4zr6g]

What size tractor did you use to pull the corn planter before the 340?

[@chrissyfrancis8952]

Andy, will you be able to track how much product you save with the system by comparing to this year? Or won’t that work?

[@thomasbritten7216]

If Marty hates the CmdPro I wouldn't be scared of putting the 340 on the DB60, I don't think you'd be able to tell a difference from the 370, especially with the heavier tires and ballast on the 340. Personally I prefer the original IVT control style over the command pro just for the fact that you can see what percentage of your set speed you're at in F1 and F2 ranges as you move the lever. Deere has some CmdPro training videos on their KZbin channel that are pretty good. The e23 powershift in full auto mode isn't much different than a true IVT as far as controls go. Power loss in an IVT is only significant at certain set speeds, a.k.a. set speeds where the IVT hydraulic system is not running at full displacement. Every IVT system in ag equipment is made up of a traditional mechanical transmission along with a hydraulic pump and motor in a closed loop. When you assign your set speed, the mechanical transmission shifts to the optimal gear for the torque needed, then the hydraulic pump and motor both vary their displacement to add torque to the output shaft. This is how the transmission dials in exactly to your set speed. When the hydraulic system is at full displacement transmitting maximum torque, the system is very efficient. When the hydraulic system is only adding a small amount of torque to the output shaft, this is when the engine is powering a hydraulic system that is not running at full capacity, causing a small amount of wasted power. The idea that an IVT is way less efficient than a powershift is not entirely true, and anytime the tractor is operating at high engine load it is not true at all. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk

[@peteparker7396]

We have two 8R410’s one is a power shift and one IVT. I can’t tell the difference power wise, but the IVT does use less fuel because of the optimization of power and ground speed. I love both of ours but prefer the IVT. As far as ExactApply? It is worth every penny for us, because we have more acres then most and it has paid for itself both in precision and volume saved. I have a neighbor who tried the aftermarket version, and we did comparison testing with both Deere and the competition involved. It wasn’t a close competition, ExactApply won out.

[@lazynow1]

This guy has talent for stating the obvious..........

[@johnnye747]

Do you have winter fuel? We have a dairy operation in Utah. We have winterized diesel fuel and cut with 30% #1 diesel so it doesn’t gel up. If we try to run a machine that has summer fuel, it will not run long. I was curious because when you start these machines in winter do they hassle you at all? If we don’t do all of the above we have nothing but trouble.

[@bradfreer2132]

[@allpointsbb]

Did you finally get a cement floor in your shop?? Also, a thought about your problem with fungicide clotting up. I only sprayed from 750 gallon tanks at a tine but have you tried using hot water to break down or dissolve the product?? Just a thought to your problem.

[@stevebrekken2547]

It's confusing. First you stated you need sub soil moisture to have good yields which I would agree with. Then you want sub soil drainage? I agree with your dad on that one.

[@davedammitt7691]

Sub-surface and sub-soil are not the same thing. Subsoil moisture gives something for the roots to uptake water from as needed. Surface water drowns the plants. Tiling removes standing water above and in the top couple of inches of soil. Corn and soybeans need water IN the ground, not ON the ground.

[@aTrippyFarmer]

Like the other commenter stated, sub surface drainage removes excess water in the poor spaces between soil particles. That water kills roots because it starves them of air. For a crop to perform optimally, it needs access to adequate soil moisture without the roots essentially drowning. Soil can hold water without being saturated beyond its holding capacity. Once it gets over saturated, the water becomes a problem, which is where sub surface drainage comes into play. It doesn't remove the soil-bound moisture, just the excess in between pores.

[@RealJohnWayne]

Hey there Trippy, I hope this finds you well? 🙏 I cringed with every one of your cold starts, where more than 2/3 of all engine wear occurs, and John Deere provides a capable as well as efficient way to effectively eliminate all of that unnecessary wear, and it's as easy as plugging a power cord into an electrical outlet. The IVT transmission has been a good option, but it does have its weaknesses, primarily power limitations, efficiency, complexity, and noise. The newer EVT that's available in the 8R 410 that replaces hydrostatic motors with more efficient, durable, and quieter, electric motors, which are also significantly easier to troubleshoot in the field. I suggest you take all of that added ballast off that tractor and doing something useful with it, like making boat anchors? The old days of 2-wheel drive tractors, that weighed less than half of today's comparable 4-Wheel Drive Tractors, with Cabs and Duals, or Tracks on all 4 corners, making added ballast not only unnecessary (In most cases) but also being detrimental (In many cases.) I hope y'all have a good one! "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌 👍 🇺🇸
