The Top 5 Skills Needed To Be A Great Farmer

[@damiankeenan5588]

I listened to your show and it cheered me up, my wife died suddenly, my hole world stopped, but listening to you and Cole, cheers me up, god bless, damian from New Zealand

[@jasonrosa5274]

"You picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel "😂,let's hear that hit single daddy cornstar👍

[@mommacs6159]

It’s one of his greatest hits ! 😂

[@willyfindlay4398]

Your Dad is a real character. Love the story of why he bought another tractor and grain cart. Great to have Team Cornstar back on KZbin.

[@denisemanley5318]

Daddy Cornstar scared me the other day climbing on the bins. Please be careful! 😊

[@8tomtoms8]

DC may not be a professional or a stunt man, but he is a good, caring fellow with an honest heart. That is plenty enough for me.

[@tonieiselt6274]

DC is a professional. He is a professional farmer. Loved his advice.

[@sharonhilliard3780]

We love you Dad Cornstar !!! We think you and Mama Cornstar have done a wonderful job with you children . They learned at ear to age to love farming. I think it is so neat that you have generational farm . And now you and Cole and Cooper are all working together on the farm . I think you father would be so proud .

[@DannyMorrison5i8yrd]

This is why I watch the cornstars love this family

[@texlongone]

It all comes down to making it work. The advice about just shut it down is pure gold. Good folk!

[@norm-nas]

And after 15 years you still have the 2 tractors that got the boys started on fieldwork, cool.

[@freddog5218]

the cornstar family reminds me of the way I was raised I'm 80. god bless you all.

[@bobdevreeze4741]

Every farmer I have ever worked with was a problem solver. That is an art in itself. Problem solving was a favorite part of my job.

[@stephenriley9084]

DC, If you ever think you lack skills. Stop. Take a 360° look around you and carry on!👍. Stephen.

[@jarrodvsinclair]

That tractor story was great. It's likely a core memory for Grandpa's grandkids and why they are still in farming.

[@ryanlaw7474]

Congratulations on being Grandparents!!!

[@markely7587]

DC, I know you love to read the comments. I am very concerned about anyone getting on that bin, it is extremely unsafe! If you absolutely have to go up there you really need to be strapped into a safety harness and tethered. Put a couple cameras in the bin so you know how much capacity it it has. Just one bad move and it’s going to be tragedy on your farm. Don’t put your family in that position, they need you! Please get someone out there to secure the railings, catwalks and build tether points. If something happens to you, or one of your boys the pain left behind will be unbearable.

[@Aussie_Witchy_Woman71]

I’m glad to see you’re back Daddy Cornstar. I love your videos and your advice.

[@mybeckett74]

I love watching your videos I can't wait to see more videos but the cornstarr family😍♥

[@kevinkouns3097]

My dad died at 44, I'm 68 now and still ask what would my dad think or what his advice would be. BE SAFE!!!

[@31sweetcorn]

You guys have a great family. God bless you.

[@antmorgan5255]

Very true words spoken by Daddy cornstar . Respect all-rounder.👍🇮🇪🤠

[@ccale03]

I didn’t have a dad growing up. At the age of 10 my “ex” step-grandfather (he and my grandmother had gotten divorced) a man who had no blood relation to me, and didn’t need to deal with me, stepped seeing the path I was headed down, moved me down to his small farm and helped me see what a father was and raised me how I feel daddy cornstar raises his kids. He shaped me into the man I am today. Every day that man is referred to as my dad never grandpa and in my eyes will always be my dad. You don’t have to be blood to someone to care about them and treat them with respect. Always be the daddy cornstar or stand in fathers kids need and this world will always be better for it!!!!

[@PeggyStentzCasey]

We've missed you DC!!! Please be careful climbing around those bins. Hope y'all can get that all sorted out and fixed.

[@deanchapman6425]

This a true American family with the old values that built America. Common Sense, unfortunately is not so common anymore. People have forgotten what it means to wear it out, fix-it up make it work and make do. This has become a throw away society. My grandparents and parents tried to make sure I knew how to have a successful and fruitful life. I think they succeeded. I'm now retired after working with my hands for fifty yrs. Unfortunately I don't see many young people coming up that want to do the hard work. They want to sit at a computer all day. But they don't want repair that computer. They feel that's beneath them.

[@scratchinjack608]

DC's advice in a nutshell: "No" is not in your vocabulary. "I can do...," "I must do...," and "I'm happy to do..." is in the vocabulary.

[@jameskendrick573]

You and your kids bring me a lot of smiles in this crazy world and Cole looks like momma corn star and the rest look like you awesome a show

[@denisemanley5318]

Daddy Cornstar, you are so impressive. Love your family and your stories. This video was like when you would sit down and have chocolate milk and tell us stories. ❤❤❤

[@Morpheus187]

You look at your neighbors kids and say why don’t I have kids like those?😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@TreasureFiend]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jclint1968]

I just love you guys! I don’t think I ever missed one of your videos. You know Daddy Cornstar, you and my father, I know, where cut from the same mold. My dad had a great sense of humor, I remember that he could get my mother laughing until she cries. Even after he retires and was in poor health he was alway fun to be around. I’d love to visit someday and trade farm stories. What a lucky man you are Daddy Cornstar, the Good Lord has blessed you with a loving family.

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

If my great uncle Elrod was still around he'd be in complete agreement with you. Your stories are always worth listening to.

[@graciethunders]

Good vibes and great video as always, please let Daddy Cornstar be in charge of the latest puppy. I love Cooper to death but dang

[@alanm3438]

I wonder if my life would have been better if I had a Daddy Cornstar in my life. When I was in the Air Force, it was more important to know how to get the information you need than knowing it. The office is full of manuals. Daddy Constar is a true inspiration. 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😎😎

[@beckypage6041]

This was a great idea! I miss the shade tree talks. Take care and stay warm.

[@williamconner8240]

I fully agree with your five most important things to possess as a farmer but with determination a farmer must have the passion for farming.

[@mommacs6159]

Above all 💯

[@djwilliams4714]

Daddy Cornstar, I Really appreciate the way you explain things, and how you treat your children/wife. I had the opposite life, at times I was called a POS for not doing things as my father did.... I miss my grandfather, he taught me SO much, however, my dad did everything the opposite and we disagreed...

[@georgewalker7464]

Nice video of u and Cole going over old times daddy corn star, I sent cole a message this morning about u on top of the silos, please get that videoed , and get a crew out there to fix everything up there before someone gets killed right away, please don't jump around up there anymore, just concerned fan, God bless

[@djwilliams4714]

The situations in a small town, and or family are simply resolved; and we need to stick to that! Take care of you, your family, and your community!! I sincerely Respect You Daddy Cornstar, Cole, Cooper, Nava (sp), Mama Cornstar

[@jamescallon2455]

Hi Grandpa cornstar!

[@genesiedenburg9798]

A real father. 💯.

[@dalegereaux1863]

Good show today ! It reminded me of the 25 years that I worked with my Dad. 👍

[@johnhartman2095]

A Good American Family, Love Your Blog.

[@tonynorris1250]

Cole needs to wash your truck! Thanks for sharing your life with us! 🙏🌽⭐️🚜

[@mommacs6159]

The gravel roads are absolutely horrible right now. Trying to keep vehicles clean is like trying to herd cats 🐈‍⬛! Lol

[@paxbonum4683]

I always enjoy when DC and Cole have an interview. I can't imagine creating as many quality videos as you do. Always figuring out how to build on the past and set up for future videos. Your ability to get DC just to talk about life and farming is great. And of course DC is a star, always funny and offering little pearls of wisdom like "walk away". Thanks for sharing your farm and your family's life. God bless

[@jamesboris1233]

Daddy Cornstar would like to see more videos of you, We like stores that you tail and loving family

[@davidkimmel4216]

You did a great job explaining lots of great human skills for all farmers. That you 😊

[@CB-pf7go]

HI 👋 Daddy and Mama Cornstar, I’ve missed you both and it’s great seeing you tonight.😊

[@joeroad6618]

Excellent advice, these can be applied to almost any line of work.

[@charlescade8409]

An old farmer told me(God rest his soul) That a smart man learns from his mistakes, But a really wise man learns from the mistakes of others.

[@Sunshineandflowers1997]

Congratulations on being first time Grandparents! God bless the new little one 🙏 ✨️ 🥰

[@michaelsurratt9593]

Good to see DC, everyone’s favorite Cornstar

[@jayheiman7388]

I learned one thing growing up I helped my grandpas cousins farm and then two brothers would get in an argument but by the next day they apologized or made up to each other and business as usual. And I’ll never forget that and they were very successful.

[@dsinavich5141]

Hi ! Great stories ! Lots of information and interesting questions ! DC is the best ! Cole you are so bad bringing up stuff !! LoL. Take care ! Deborah 🇨🇦

[@marycountry]

Whoa Daddy Cornstar, Yes. Have missed you guys. But I realize this is your only partial down time. So enjoy!🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@leetingler619]

I like the five. Shows wisdom!

[@opendstudio7141]

I'd give this content more than a single thumbs up, but I only have one that counts. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Good to see you again. ♥️ Hello from Michigan

[@gregwindschitl1896]

Fantastic video, great learning for young farmers and all adults

[@hjyoho1220]

We bought Storyworth for my parents this year. Each story time with DC reminds me of the stories my parents are sharing on Storyworth. Priceless memories.

[@clinthochrein888]

Great 5 skills! To which I can relate on some of them.

[@tcanthony2]

Love the videos. Could listen to you all day.

[@markwinblad5867]

DC, you seem more relaxed in this video. I was getting worried that things were upsetting you and you were trying not to show it. Is this little dog going to live with you and Mama Cornstar? Everyone would benefit from you being their dad and I am many of us out here were wishing that their dad was alot more like you.

[@mommacs6159]

That is Cooper’s puppy, Ellie. But she loves her grandpa 💙

[@LP-mz8rc]

@@mommacs6159 Congrats on your grandson! We love all you Cornstars!

[@clintmeyer8029]

Mrs. DC is able and capable of FIXING breakfast,lunch, and supper! Lol Beside every good farmer is a great wife.

[@burtzorn4059]

D C you are the man. To me they don't come any better than you. You boys are so lucky to have him. Hope you keep coming on to talk to us. Take care and stay warm.

[@davidkeville9282]

There’s a funny story I have about shut the tractor off when there’s a problem my brother was out dragging with the old Farmall W4 and my dad had him driving as my was working getting the planter. He told him shut it off if there’s any problems. Well my dad looked over and my brother was bottom out and the tires are just spinning in the mud.

[@jasongollaher9822]

Just a straightforward good human, hard to come by now.

[@bobdavis6133]

You all are the best God bless

[@karenohlson5509]

Common sense means stay off those rickety bins!

[@vinnypinatelli221]

Ya'll are amazing!!! 👏 great video!

[@mundellsfamilyadventures8135]

How you treated and treat your boys is quite similar how my dad was with me, he never raised his voice, but got his point across to me in a mild manner, he never brought past mistakes up, and that is how I treat my kids, even though I stopped farming, in my construction business I try yo do as my father did with me, I tell my boys mistakes will be made, there is nothing we can't fix, and the only way we will learn what not to do and why. It's always a pleasure to watch you all working together brings back memories for me, been almost 11yrs since my father past and I still think I wish I could discuss things with him, thanks for being who you guys are, GREAT PEOPLE.

[@garystrahan4601]

@5:31 Sometimes you look at the neighbours' kids, and you're thinking, why can't I have kids like theirs

[@cindybowser322]

Love watching your shows Daddy cornstar

[@thomaslyon2112]

Does Moma Cornstar know how bad the hand rails are on the grain bins? There has to be something you can do about that, before someone get hurt or worse !

[@Highlanddragon]

Love the dog bed GO CUBS GO

[@gloriacoffey4651]

Enjoyed your stories.😊

[@mouse589c5]

You were using 'mishaps' as a 'learning opportunity' back before it was a thing. Love hearing the stories. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@gregcatlett1458]

THANKS SO MUCH MEN I APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORTS!!

[@margaretlynch1494]

🙋‍♀️❤ It's not really a skill, but experience passed down for generations is certainly an asset!

[@edp9743]

Cole your dads stories of you growing up made me think, both of my parents and all my siblings are gone, you have the opportunity to ask questions and hear their stories, please do. I wish I had more time with my family , too many unanswered questions.

Unfortunately in today's society, "common sense" is as rare as the doodoo bird. However, it's still the best advice period. Cheers :)

Love these stories! Yeah, I hate the mega churches too! You are not alone in that thought!

Thanks for this discussion. Things continue to change as time goes on but certain things still stay the same.

This man's greatest gift is his ability to "seek to understand, he has this in spades, makes most management type executives pale in comparison

Great to have you guys back. Love the way your dad puts things. He is a hardworking Man. I really appreciate the way he is.

[@pacificcoastpiper3949]

Great to see you both together and laughing while sharing valuable life advice. My son told me of recently for backing the car into our garage door so I guess I’m on the naughty step with DC… not a bad place to be😂

If i could add another one. Stay calm. Temper tantrums do not help. My Dad never learnt that til it was to late. RIP

[@jesusisGod1434]

It’s GRANDPA CornStar now isn’t it!

[@mark6062]

DC, please watch Coles last video with you on top of the corn bins and think of these 5 most important things about farming! Common sense! If you have that feeling that you shouldn’t be up there with flopping railing and leaping from landing to landing then listen to your common sense! Walk away! Don’t go back up there until everything is fixed and somewhat OSHA approved! Mechanical skills - if it’s broke, it needs fixed! Math skills- terminal velocity is the same from 10 feet high or 80 feet high. The fall doesn’t kill ya, the stopping does! People skills- we would be really happy to have you continue to use your people skills in KZbin videos and not spending time in the hospital after a fall!! Please be careful, listen to your common sense, practice walking away, if it’s loose on a tractor it gets fixed- if it’s loose at the top of the corn bin- get it fixed. Do the math and we look forward to seeing you on the next video! ZZ Mark

[@bradw3313]

Really impressive!!!! Such a seamless explanation of skills to farming but biggest message is basic father skills. DC is the Ann Landers of fatherhood …,. I would enjoy live video on DC fielding dad questions from those young Dads out there. Haven’t seen a pizza lately. Stay off the death silos…..put a plexi lid on silo and use the drone.

[@verajamieson8020]

Good on you DC, n MC, n Cole loved the video.👏👏👏🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🔧🛠🔨🐕🍀🇨🇮
