The Intern Drives the 4640 - The Valley

[@fredivory4304]

Rocket is the best kind of manager. As long as things are running smoothly, he just stays out of the way!

[@remcoscholtmeijer3044]

Time to get a flatbed for big red so you can transport the bales easier!

[@kodabear_46]

A step deck would be better, use it to haul bales and equipment. Just get some of those ramps that you can store on the side when not in use and then pull them out when they need to drive equipment onto the trailer.

[@leecooper7374]

A big hand to y’all for taking time to let a young person follow/job shadow y’all on the farm. Congrats to Hannah for showing up and not being bashful and wanting to learn. She’ll go far in life.

[@pfisterfarms1046]

What drone do you use

[@MrVailtown]

Hi Hanna, hope it works out n you become a new generation farmer. Ty Ryan for giving her a shot.

[@davids.9834]

I was born and raised on a dairy farm. My families farm was sold about 20 years ago and I would absolutely not recommend agriculture to any of my kids. The only exception would be if your family already has a running, profitable farm. Farming was an awesome way to grow up, but nowadays there is no such thing as a "start up" farm. Money is not everything and its not happiness, but trust me, you will not be happy if your dying broke like my grand father. I dont know how any small to mid size farm makes it in this country. New tractor half million, health insurance...... 30k per year..... etc..etc....

[@MrGommer101]

@@davids.9834 I agree why do they farm and get little return on there time let it go mega corporate

[@FoolOfATuque]

Those are some monster windrows! That rake is handling it very well. I don't like to use our V-Rake much, because it ropes the hay and makes baling difficult. The last field I was in I hit a slug of hay in a windrow which stalled my tractor. Those windrows were also enormous. I was very surprised that megawide pickup didn't clog up. It just happily kept stuffing hay into the bale chamber. Lol!

It gets hectic during harvest most seasons. All nighters, if they can get the beans first then concentrate on the corn, there is no worry about changing out the head on the combine swapping back and forth.

[@This1LifeWeLive]

Hehehe, you have an intern 😂😂 nice to see a girl getting into the tractor seat and learning how things run! 😁

[@compilationtv3832]

Love the Videos. All of your videos have actually gotten me into watching farming videos and learning about all of that stuff. You show the hard work and the struggles of trying to maintain a farm. Not to mention all of the rough science behind all of seeding and planting and this and that. Such as what crops are bad/good in a certain area and how much rain is not enough/ to much. It's alot of work nowadays even with technology. I just want to say Amazing Job and keep up the amazing content. :)

Ummm. You’ve clearly never pulled an implement or trailer before

[@johnporter5059]

Yes I have. I mow hay every summer and use the 40 foot trailer to haul every summer.

[@lukestrawwalker]

Hillsides and slopes... they can do some really funny stuff to machinery... I've heard guys in hill country that won't even pull a small round baler with less than a 150 horsepower tractor because when it gets a bale in it it will just push them all over the place, particularly in a turn or if the ground is the least bit slippery... there's a lot of iron in that rake and I wouldn't be surprised to hear it can push them around on a steep slope or slippery conditions (not just wet/muddy but sometimes just damp grass can be way slipperier)...

Ryan, I know Travis has discussed options on baling the farms, but would a big block bales stack easier and use storage more efficiently? Or is the air space needed around the bales after packing them into the barn? Round or Big square bales, they all eat just as well. Question is Would a baler like Wes' work in your applications?

Some kind of mini rake would good for that job.

[@lukestrawwalker]

That's where having an old New Holland 256 or 258 or heck even an old straight-axle NH 55 (or the equivalent built by any number of companies) around the farm would be nice... basically roll up an 8.5-9.5 foot swath into a windrow and move on to the next one... even narrowed down "all the way" (which I *suppose* that it *could* have been narrowed down more but I'm not sure... ) that rake is almost *too wide* for hay that thick... even sticking the outside wheels up next to the last windrow so that side is basically raking "clean ground" (already raked into the last windrow) it was still cranking out some monster windrows... Those big wide wheel rakes are terrific in large acreage rectangular fields, particularly in light hay, but in small irregular fields and heavy swaths they can really be a handful... Later!

What happened to Jamie can you show her in another video

[@lukestrawwalker]

She's teaching school now and the schools are *VERY* funny about their staff's activities on social media, particularly Facebook and KZbin... It's sad but true *everybody else* in the world is allowed to "have a life" but if you do or say *anything* that the biggest prude or nutjob in the community happens to find "offensive" you can RAPIDLY find yourself out of a job and your career in serious jeopardy... Sad but it's the sickening state our society has come to. I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if Jamie decided not to appear in any videos because of that issue alone. I know she also got pretty tired of bad comments about her doing farm work in flip-flops and of course you always have a few perverts that feel compelled to make lecherous statements to any attractive female and I'm pretty sure she didn't like that sort of thing either... It's just 'how it is' and while we'd all like to see Jamie more things will have to change for her situation or with attitudes of others before it would happen... Later! OL J R : )

Hearing you explain the gears I think I stick with our high, low, creep ranges and 1 to 6 and shuttle forward and reverse or the standard H pattern with reverse and just high and low.

[@richardvandyke9578]

Gears are really simple. 4 gear ranges A,B,C,D, and 4 powershift gears in each range. Most farm work is done in the C range.

[@lukestrawwalker]

The gears are really simple when you understand how it works... basically you have four ranges (A, B, C, D) instead of two (hi/low) and then four gears (1,2 and 3,4) in a "Z" pattern. 1 and 2 are at the bottom of the "Z" and 3 and 4 are at the top of the "Z". You select your range (A is slowest D is fastest) usually somewhere in B or C for most jobs, with A and B for heavier tillage type jobs) and then select the gear... no different than shifting an H pattern four speed transmission with a high and low range... You shift into high or low range and shift into whatever gear you want; on my Ford 8 speeds it's typically high range and second gear (sixth) for working. Same thing on the Deere, but you have the added advantage that on the gears "across from each other" (1 and 2 at the bottom of the Z, and 3 and 4 at the top of the Z) you can shift from one to the other directly across from each other WITHOUT USING THE CLUTCH... they're a powershift gear thus can shift 'on the fly' without clutching. For a manual H pattern transmission you have to clutch between ALL gears. If you want to go from 2 to 3 up the center of the Z pattern, THEN you have to clutch because that's a manual gear selection not the powershift. If you want to switch ranges, you clutch like you would with a normal H pattern with 2 ranges... Nothing to it... Later! OL J R :)

[@SlipShodBob]

Thanks, just trying to think if that was what was in the 3650 we borrowed when the cooling pump went on our Ford during baling but it was nearly 20 years ago and was rather banged up and about to be sold. All I can remember was the linkage was half seized, the linkage to the spools was sloppy to the point one kept popping apart, the gears were sloppy between 2 and 3 that it was hit and miss if it went into gear when changing between the two, 3 to 4 was the opposite but 1 and 2 were spot on. Oh and due to the size of the thing it was tight or impossible with some when it came to getting it in the sheds.
