Spreading Manure On Our Alfalfa Fields!

[@asquithmainlines699]

Bet that trucker is glad those duals didn’t depart going down the highway but I am guessing they were on the ditch side anyway. Happy Canada Day everyone, half of 2023 in now in the rear view mirror! I was not surprised at all to see your Mom on a bike. Hope her garden is doing well.

[@dougdiplacido2406]

Glad the tires coming off did not do any other damage. Sure wish you would get some rain. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks.

[@christinekeleher3578]

Nice to see more honest Canadians. Guess that’s why we are considered the polite people. Good job glad nobody was hurt.

[@williammerry4746]

Another interesting video, Jan. You are really good at making these videos. Most interesting. Like the guest appearance of your fine mom and sister. Lovely family. Praying with others for rain. Take care.

[@sunroofracing]

Outstanding video Jan! Enjoyed hearing the Case IH when you were taking the manure out to the field. Thankful you got a little bit of rain. Prayers for more. Crazy thing those milk truck tires. Enjoyed the video. Always grateful for your work and dedication on the farm and for your channel.

Back in the early 90's I had a semi break a hub and brake assembly in front of me on the highway heading down a steep grade somewhere in the southwest. The wheels shot off the road into woods but one of the break shoes stayed on the highway bouncing all over. I was on a motorcycle and tried to dodge it and luckily did with my tires but it bounced just right and just caught the corner, blowing up my cast aluminum oil pan. A couple friends and a local helped me get it fixed and running again. Ahhh, memories of when you survived lol

[@gerardcudmore1556]

The spindle nut backed off and is why duels came off the trailer. The company was very lucky they came off in your yard and not going at highway speed down the road . Lots of people killed when loose wheels hit other vehicles .

[@roberthakeman9822]

The same thing happened to a driver in our company on one of our reefer trailers but it happened at night when it was dark😅 out ,on a interstate.

[@steveneal2706]

Awesome video Jan. thank you very much

[@rollingreclinerRecumbent]

The drone shots add so much. You have a knack for content and editing. 👍

[@1944chevytruck]

tons of work! good job!

[@jeremymulder2453]

If you drive on the soft hose you can squeeze manure back towards the pit. Little quicker than lifting the hose.

[@wild_insomnia]

Neline's chuckles are precious

[@jamesyachyshen7116]

When I was a young man, one of the coolest experiences I had when I was 11 years old and I would go and milk my cows by hand, and then come back from the barn with pails of milk. I would always sneak 1 quart of milk for myself before I got back to the house . When I was 12 I grew 1 foot in one year .

[@bd6862]

Great videos

[@glennmoreside787]

Really enjoy following your farm, great videos.

[@mikehill9888]

The Nut holding the bearings tight came off. Great thing they didn't come off on a fast road and hit another vehicle. Some work was done on that axle.

[@allenols3175]

A+ rain 🌧

[@jansky7063]

Great sound cummins engine

[@johnnylindsey5808]

Good job and God bless

[@omegalpha28]

been wrenching over 20 years. what you have there is a axle nut that what improperly installed. the nut should have had either a pinch nut or a lock washer.

[@frankscruggs4749]

Good video.

[@alfsimmonds1569]

Hey! Hope all is growing well. I see a river in the background, is that the North Saskatchewan River? And also i see what looks like Saskatoon on your phone. If so, I've worked in Naicam and Delmas.

[@MellowYe77ow]

No, that's Rice Lake.

[@charleslynch7274]

Love the manuer hauling

[@bilbobeutlin1202]

Hello Jan, thanks for the video. I think your FORD deserves a new windshield.😀😀😀😀

[@pfd37]

Seen logging trucks loose them around here, been fortunate enough to never loose a set.

[@3069mark]

Had a set of duals on one of the tandems on the back of a heavily-loaded 48 ft box trailer come off on me once. It happened around 2am and so fortunately there was hardly any traffic on the rural interstate because if it had been heavy daytime traffic someone could have gotten hit by the duals and either badly injured or killed. It was completely black out so I didn't even know it until I stopped for coffee at the next truckstop. Had a roadside service come out and they chained up the axle on that side and then I eased her on the rest of the 230 miles to the terminal.

[@joanlittle4235]

Boy! I realy like you to tell me so much Thank for these Great videos.. Granny USA

[@steveharrington301]

[@semmhm32]

Luzerne hasst Gülle, unsere sah ein ganzes Jahr lang schlecht aus nachdem wir im Frühjahr mal gefahren hatten. Grüße aus Deutschland

[@benpattinson1]

Plant more strips of trees Jan?

[@lesterhertel2945]

Another very interesting video Thank you

[@melissagreen1117]

❤

[@andreakeeling9217]

What if you filled the liquid manure truck half with manure and half with water? Wouldn’t that help in times of drought?❤❤❤

[@KanakaMaoli1]

Jan, I'll do a Hawaiian rain dance for you all. It work's 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@pauldemattia4721]

Love the beard, what happened to the wind shield in your truck?

[@conundrumconundrum5589]

I bet a bubbler system will help your pit.

[@berniegallizio5042]

By the look of the new stemco cover the hub was serviced and lost the big nut that holds the bearings in place… opps 😮

[@Northern_Farmer]

I washed my truck yesterday...that should make it rain

[@billybarber1128]

I had that haping to me on my moter home and the axle came out with the duals .

[@janwillem4775]

Love your stuff Jan. Did you ever consider growing corn?

[@BWYinYang]

Their area don't get enough rain for corn.

[@betadoctor]

Somehow i love these manure hauling vids ..

[@randychristian7642]

Aw, you favorite job. LOL

[@tinachambers4887]

Hi Jan enjoyed the video have a day love from TEXAS

[@shealy265]

It would be an interesting video to review your family's decision tree of forage totals and whether you will need to start buying hay be it alfalfa or other options. Buy hay early or hope the greater hay producing areas produce enough hay to drive prices down over time. Interesting to hear how your family walks through these difficult decisions. Propose delay video until after you plan have implemented any early hay purchase plans.

[@bjrnhjjakobsen2174]

Its all about to balance the input and output with a sufficient profit margin😜

[@kellwood1404]

Is 5-10 mm of rain a lot?

[@timothymbonham4453]

= .5 to 1cm = 1/4 to 1/2 inch. So a bit, but not much. They could like 3 times that, spread over 3-4 days.

[@PartyOf8Please]

I can handle almost anything on the farm … except manure. I’d make a great crop farmer, though!

[@penruhfarms8199]

Could you not add another 2 feet of concrete on top of the lagoon walls to make it a bit deeper?

[@CMDSR]

Glad for you got some rain. Just remember don’t sit and watch it rain . If you do it’ll make the rain go away.

[@farmboy4012]

Do you inject any of the manure.

[@markfleck7981]

Are the wildfires any where close to your farm or crops

[@MellowYe77ow]

The closest fire to them is about 350 km (217 mi) away.

[@carolynrose753]

25mm a week or one rainy day a week is good for us farmers

[@Northern_Farmer]

Thst be perfect

[@gavinperry7237]

Unfortunately numerous people get killed each year when semi’s loose tires & rims. This company was EXTREMELY LUCKY tires only ended up in the trees

[@pocketchange1951]

👍👌❤️🇨🇦,

[@homey3051]

WOW !!! That pump really needs some drive shaft shields on it and them control's need mounting somewhere safe to use. That set up is just a accident waiting to happen.

[@christinelips3657]

We need rain down in Western Massachusetts

[@garethstott]

Jan cuts Alfalfa "I wish we had smellyvision" Jan agitates the pit and spreads manure "I`m glad we don`t have smellyvision"

[@grahamsobieski2507]

How deep is that pit ?

[@MellowYe77ow]

10 feet.

[@purplerunner1715]

The MX still sounds good. Good thing those wheels didn't fall off on the highway and hit someone. That drivers lucky day I guess.

[@raymonddundys1497]

in Ontario losing a tire off a commercial vehicle is a $50.000 fine

[@intveldfarms5529]

Spreading manure is one of my favorite things to do on the farm.

[@johnspinner5395]

You should get your mom one of those electric bikes like what all the KZbinrs have

[@bb4life41]

Losing those wheels could be up to a 50k fine in Ontario if that happens, many people killed by flying truck wheels in last 30 years

[@nicolemajeed399]

wow! the barley even SOUNDS dry

[@derekwpennington1796]

Man in maine we have had raine entire month of june. Actuallu have a sump pump in back yard ss we have a foot of standinding water lol. Wish we had dry weather and could send this water north to you guys or to help with fires. 😂

[@MrCrazycook8]

Those tires must have got tired

[@katherinekinnaird4408]

Go ahead and leave those tires anywhere. Hopefully noe one gets hurt😊.

[@Geordi-xe5ly]

Are your fields close enough where you can run a irrigation system?

[@Northern_Farmer]

Where would the water come from

[@peterjackson2805]

Hi all. Is anyone having trouble downloading eppersod. I have tried 6 times and will not download.

[@christopherdouglas8471]

Fix that cracked windshield in your truck Jan!

[@matteoricci19]

can u do a updated equiment tour? also do u like the new bobcat skidsteers?

[@debbiemiddleton1668]

Do you all drink the fresh milk from your farm?

[@MellowYe77ow]

Yes, they do.

[@mattwheaton7621]

👍🏻🇨🇦🤟🏻

[@JAMESRS58]

Lucky he didn’t lose that set of duals on the Trans Canada ..

[@chriskleineck5092]

We need smell of vision

[@PolaxAcebuche]

You guy's planning to enter poultry business

[@asquithmainlines699]

They discussed it but decided it was a fowl idea!

[@PolaxAcebuche]

Of course them. Hais

[@robertsimon6500]

I would have suggested putting a roof over your pit to reduce rain and snow melt but I am guess it does not pay to do that

[@cindifischer6919]

This was done in California, USA on large manure pits. May be done in other parts of the USA but I'm not aware but I know they do it in California.

[@timothymbonham4453]

If they had spare money to build roofs, it would be a smarter investment to put them over the outside corrals where half their cattle live. Keeping the cows comfortable is more important than the manure pit.

[@sammathias3498]

Why aren't you all smokey there? Ohio in the USA is horrible 😢😢

[@timothymbonham4453]

I believe the fires are to the west of them, and the winds are blowing the smoke south into the US before it gets to them. Then the US winds blow it east.

[@darrendimitroff4988]

Your smoke is coming from Quebec,this is a lot further to the west , the forest fire situation isn’t as bad, but it’s hot and dry in Saskatchewan now so the fires north of here will be starting up I’m sure

[@pauldemattia4721]

your still a cutie...

[@icebabysnocain]

Speaking of rain, we never see you take a pee break or spit your tobacco. Don't be shy. I'm surprised that the lagoon filled up that quickly. Seems like you were just emptying it. I knew you wounldn't steal the tires, it's not in your nature to be dishonest. The drone shots are great. Good video. Pax.

[@robertcarney6259]

“full to the nuts” is that half full? lol

[@nikeshkatwal3121]

Good morning brother is there Fred's diary farm company in Canada.. I get a job offer as security can you help me ???

[@brianboxtel2660]

why don't you have a sprinkler system, like the farmers in (the always beautiful) Netherlands have

[@EFCasual]

No canals, not enough ground water for more than drinking.

[@henkheemskerk4437]

I think your father is in charge. I don't think he tolerates contradiction

[@coreyvandyke528]

Your sister is kind of a negative Nelly ain't she LOL

[@channelman09]

Hey man why do you guys not get a traveling irrigator like we have on NZ farms

[@franciscosandiego3026]

It's 💩💩💩💩💩 days

[@raysmith7382]

Why put liquid manure on Good Alfalfa ? It needs Potash not Nitrogen.

[@eldonhoward7925]

👍

[@conundrumconundrum5589]

I bet a bubbler system will help your pit.
