Farming

We are mowing with a John Deere T track and a Schulte rotary deck mower. I do some explaining and describe what I am doing out here in this tractor today. Have a good one.

Hi, you might want to get an nd filter for your drone lens. I think it’s over exposing the video just an idea..

[@TrevorStruthers]

I think you are right. Yeah it is really overexposed on the bright days, maybe I accidentaly locked a setting. I am filiming in D-Log and coloring in Adobe afterwards.

[@charlestibbey2666]

Thanks Trevor, good to see you driving a Deere!

[@TrevorStruthers]

More to come! They have red machines also, but this will be my chariot for a while.

[@joelg8004]

Is that batwing stealth bomber mower basically a giant brush hog or something entirely different? I remember the videos you did with one in the Quad Track so assuming they need a lot of power if you’re using a 9RT here?

[@TrevorStruthers]

Yeah its a big ol brush hog with Italian gear boxes that those Italians are quite proud of. When they need replaced you can see how proud they truly are.

[@joelg8004]

@@TrevorStruthers to be fair it is quite impressive! I’d be pretty proud too! 😂

Sounds like a anti police group

[@TrevorStruthers]

lol, what does?

[@fredericdelage1542]

Magnifique vidéo et le tracteur à chenille et le broyeur est bien équipés 😮😅😊

[@tonymckeage1028]

Great Video Trevor, the JD on tracks is spectacular, thanks for sharing

[@TrevorStruthers]

Glad you liked it tony. I am glad to be back in a tractor.

[@WheelingDairyFarmer]

Nice video Trevor. Interesting stuff in the new location. It will be fun to see new country.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Hope so! Thanks Bruce

[@John-nc4bl]

Trevor, thanks for another excellent video. I wish you many great days with your new employer.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Many thanks John! Me too.

Hi Trevor, another you pass over your land before sowing crops,.had you ever seen those Kelly chain diamond harrows how much ground for less fuel you can cover,.and do any local farmer's use them to reduce field work? Best regards, Bill. Ps. They are now expensive most farmer's tend to hire them.

[@TrevorStruthers]

I havent noticed the brand. I was told our drag harrows come out of wisconsin by another person who has seen ours. Everyone has harrows but not everyone uses them all the time

[@TrevorStruthers]

I will ask around tho tomorrow

[@aaronsilves1427]

Are you by the Kellogg rd

[@TrevorStruthers]

Something like that.

Things and what not

[@TrevorStruthers]

That's a technical phrase that not everyone can understand, but most can.

[@vincentnowakowski509]

We farm over here SE of Pendleton, OR in Athena. We find that mowing after wheat harvest is a must, especially with the amount of rain we get and the taller varieties of wheat we grow. We also have our crops in a rotation with peas and fallow. Chopping up that straw before the tillage makes an insane difference and we can notice it in the spring when we go to seed peas. It’s a very time consuming process especially with the 5026 but it’s worth it and we’re looking to get a bigger one.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Agreed! My dad is mowing while harvest is still going on. He has the luxury of custom cutters that come in though. He mows it, then harrows it and eventually turbo tills it as well to make a good seed bed. We are a bit short on the moisture band, so we stay away from the peas but we wish we could increase the soil health with something like that though. Thanks for tuning in! Local boys and whatnot. Have a good one!

[@robertemerson7937]

Are you between Dodge & Central Ferry?

[@TrevorStruthers]

More close to Lions Ferry and the town of Starbuck. The farm I was working for was between dayton and central ferry. These last few videos are from the new place.

[@williskinder7794]

When they used to rod north of Dodge that area they went sooo deep you'd get dirt in a tall boot just walking in it 😅😅

[@TrevorStruthers]

@@williskinder7794 ROFL!

[@Bepositive-0i0]

always great vids from a great guy

[@TrevorStruthers]

Glad you like them!

[@christianhollauer881]

I understand that this is a very dry region. But I'm wondering that you can plan wheat every year (because of infections).

[@kevinmeyer3884]

This would be wheat one year then fallow the next here. He's showing what they're doing in the fallow year here.

[@TrevorStruthers]

There is a fallow year where we chem fallow the ground, starting sometimes in the fall after the harvest. Then the fallow is continued through chemical application until it is replanted. This is not ideal, but eliminates the green bridge and we have little problems with most infections here, other than rust when it rains a lot.

[@TrevorStruthers]

The land is left fallow until the following fall.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Thank you Kevin.

[@christianhollauer881]

@@TrevorStruthers I undestand: You harvest the wheat in summer and in autumn same year you are seeding the new wheat again, right?

[@cehaeg]

Amen! Trevor!

[@TrevorStruthers]

[@TrevorStruthers]

Or whichever one of you this is. Tell the fam I said "wazzzzup"

[@derekmcneil6448]

[@williskinder7794]

YOU must be working further west hope still as happy as before sometimes hard not work at home , does always work out. Good luck with your new adventures.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Yeah, something happened at the last place and I chose to move on instead of being on unemplyoment. The new farm is full of great guys and I am really lucky they found me.
