Pasture Aeration One Month Update

It’s been one month since I aerated my pasture. Let’s take a walk out there and see what things look like!

We drag a piece of chainlink fence to break up the patties. And scatter them. Got to love the dogs. Have a good one

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Gerrald. If I do this again I think I’ll pull a drag harrow and ring roller behind the aerator to break up pies better! Thanks for the idea!

With Spring coming they'll spring into action. 🌿💟🌿

[@DennysCountryLife]

It will be interesting to see how it does in the spring. I'm sure you'll see a difference in plant growth, even if it's marginal. I love the dog loading part of the video! Well done man, enjoyable as always!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you Chris! Yes I’m really hoping the aerator is a success, I don’t expect much if any noticeable difference until March or so. Still I want to reassess it monthly, just to see what I can learn. Glad you enjoyed the dogs, I never know if I should include stuff like that or not, so thanks for mentioning it!

[@OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm]

Great video! I’m curious of the results when warmer weather comes in the spring. Keep up the great videos man, take care!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you so much! Yes I’m really curious as well, hopefully it works out for me!

Our dog Bubbles is getting too old to jump in the box of the truck and I have to lift her. She doesn't like to miss out whenever I go anywhere and really enjoys the ride.

Tyler in a few months the grass will come back it winter but spring sun always make things grow.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Oh yeah I know. I don’t expect much to happen out there until February or March. Thanks for watching Roger!

[@annebell7274]

Love the dogs 😊😊lol 🚜🚜🚜

[@btowannab9232]

👍them dogs kinda wanted to steal the show didn't they 😁, my dog has bn known to knock my phone out of my hand when I set and watch KZbin, guess his way of saying come on we got work to do!!😏

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Haha yeah they’re funny that way! Any other time they’d be off doing their own thing but wouldn’t you know, the moment I want to film here they are! Thanks for watching BTO hope you enjoyed the video

[@laurelcreeklivestock6587]

What are the humps for? our flat fields look like that but where your humped up lines are our low points where drainage tile is placed every 40'

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Good question. The humps (or levees as we call them) are used to direct water during flood irrigation in the summertime. At one end of the field there is a buried pipeline with valves in between each levee. During summer you open the valves and flood each “check”(area in between the levees) to irrigate the grass. Hope that makes sense! Thanks for watching Laurel Creek!

[@laurelcreeklivestock6587]

Makes perfect sense. We have the opposite problems I'm trying to drain extra water and you are trying to add. We very rarely have any drought problems.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

When I was in college a kid from Oregon was asking all the same kind of questions. All he had ever seen was a centerpivot style irrigation system. Just kind of funny how across the country we’re all doing the same thing in such different ways

[@stevenbell4053]

Your pasture is suffering from compaction. Aeration needs to be done as often as possible to make a difference. Preferably in moist conditions so as the knives will penetrate deeper and easier.

😆🥰 💕 DOGS 💕🥰😂

[@ttfweb1]

Good dogs

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Yes they are! Thanks Ttf Web

[@jimmartindale]

What aerator did you use, Tyler?

[@farmertylerranch4399]

It’s an 8’ Aer-Way. Thanks James!

[@Theblindfarmer]

I got around a 8% increase I think so I would expect a 7-10% increase a bare bone 5%

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Hey that sounds good to me! Thanks SmallTown I hope I see something similar

[@allysonh6410]

Those pups are too cute!!! Might I suggest that you add as much details to your titles if you can so that people can find you more + easier? If that makes sense? Like mentioning the dogs in the title will get more hits maybe? Idk just a thought. 😂🤷‍♀️😂Looove your content

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Mrs. S! Not a bad idea. Titles are actually really hard to come up with! They have to be catchy, descriptive, and interesting all at once. The title and the picture are probably the hardest things to get right and they have the greatest effect on how many people will watch. I like your suggestion though, maybe need to touch on the more endearing aspects of the video as well!

[@allysonh6410]

@@farmertylerranch4399 yes!! Throw it all in there!! Lol but ya I'd stew about a title for eons prob lol my favorite picture that you did for 1 of your videos is the close up of the cow's hind end 😅😂😂😂it's like "wait What??!" And there you go 🙌😜😂

[@Theblindfarmer]

I never could visually see a difference when I seen it was when I bales the hay that’s when I seen the difference

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Yes that sounds right. I may cut small random samples (one square foot) in March and weigh them out if it is really hard to see any difference. I’m hoping for big results but not really expecting them you know?

[@Theblindfarmer]

Farmer Tyler Ranch let’s hope for the best the soil I did the test in was mainly red shell aka poor ground lol

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Figure the aerator probably works better on poor ground? I don’t know but my ground certainly isn’t the best either!
