We SOLD our TRACTOR...

[@hmeg1133]

I can't stress enough how much I love this channel. All the effort the Welkers put into farming and producing videos. Well done guys hope you had a great harvest and I'm really excited for future content.

[@randersson3672]

I agree and I found this channel yesterday !

[@mikeyoungblood1706]

What an awesome thing to realize that Your Farm is feeding people around the World, Thank Farmers across America.

[@scruffy6151]

Bye bye 1150 Versatile😔. Good the hear about the crops doing well. God Bless you all.

[@BlueDually4x4]

Better to have someone take the 1150 and get it running or use it to fix another machine than leave it sitting and decaying in your field. And your cinematography is still awe inspiring, just stunning camera and drone shots.

[@RedBoneCoonHound47]

Wow, running electrical power is a huge project out your way. Guess we take it for granted in the suburbs.

[@tylerdustin2008]

Uh no. What they did was very very easy. In the suburbs you cant use a trencher, you've got primary voltage, secondary voltage, phone, cable, water, sewer, gas....etc. All of those have to be located and a spot hole dug by hand to verify depth and location, and the utility locators don't care if they are dead on. They normally have a 2ft margin of error on either side of their paint mark. Once all that is done we have to use a horizontal directional drill to drill to where the transformer/dip pole is located then attach the primary cable, and pull it through the bore hole that was just drilled. Which is the one they pulled of with the truck which looked like a 15kv line or 15,000v +/-. Then you do your terminating. I would very very much rather do what I do out in an open field. And if its a rocky location it takes a rock drill and that distance in hard rock could take 3-6 months.

[@ericschmelzer6243]

At 15:11 Legarms mentioned how much storage they have at that bin site. Made me think/remember about a farm for sale in western Nebraska that covers 14,000 acres and has close to 400,000 bushels of storage.

[@gungadinn]

Just think Nick, with all the A380's being parked of dismantled, there's no need to purchase any more grain bins. Clear out a nice long spot and let the airlines fly the 380's in to use for grain storage. It's a win-win for all involved.

[@craigsmith8217]

The derecho victims could rent them for storage?

[@southjerseysound7340]

@krabbi that's all they were ever good for.

[@craigsmith8217]

@AgriCultur3 Wasn't thinking of running them. Just use them for the bins that were destroyed.

[@craigsmith8217]

@AgriCultur3 A380 will fly with 600 tons gross. I don't know how many bushel that would hold on the ground.

[@craigsmith8217]

@AgriCultur3 If the landing gear will hold that kind of weight, I suspect the plane would hold it. It does hold a lot of internal pressure when at altitude. At 30,000 ft the internal pressure is about 10 psi, or 1440 pounds per square foot. I think it will hold it.

[@artayers2372]

I'm glad to see the Versatile head somewhere other than a scrap yard. Hopefully it will be a good donor to keep one running.

[@Malaleika2410]

Wooow the edit from 11:45 to 12:45 was soo epic! Thanks for investing this much time in those videos just for our pleasure! Keep up the good work!

[@duggydo]

Great video guys. Since I started watching your channel again and the editing is so much better, I got my Dad to watching them also. He can't get out anymore and has to walk with a cane when he does. He really enjoys your videos. Brings back the farming memories for us. Thanks!

[@geraldsundberg3610]

It was good to see things are really working well, thanks for all that you do.

[@danfinley3690]

So awesome to see the big equipment at work and nice drone footage

[@gardeningpreacher]

You need to paint "WELKER" on the six grain bins (one letter on each bin)... with 8' letters...

[@Redacted00010]

They do not own those bins unfortunately, otherwise that would be awesome !

[@kevinklingner3098]

I hate when gates are left open. Especially by someone else because it ment that l had to clean it up while the culprit disappeared.

Laughed out loud at LegArms and his shower. Weird looks from everyone at work!!

I did the same and got weird looks from the wife home on her lunch break!

Meridian grain bins and conveyance equipment is a Canadian owned Company. Notice that the Westeel bins look very similar in design to Meridian.

[@shaneedwards367]

That’s was a great video I loved the music and the footage of the equipment moving threw the fields with the sun shining threw. Great editing!

[@sashcraft51]

Yeah, loved harvest, drone shots. Looking down from drone on the wheat- magical.

[@SKC640]

I really laughed @6:00 at legarms sticking his head in the grain especially since it reminded me of the serenity of peas video last year on Instagram where you guys were taking showers in the dropping peas with the beautiful music in the background on Instagram. I would love to see that video again if that was possible I would definitely vote that it should be posted on KZbin here.

[@stefancornelissen5755]

You got to love the B-Roll footage 11:20 , who ever did it its amazing

[@michelekuhne9179]

I love your drone shots. What an impressive operation. I knew nothing about farming (other than the difference between a Holstein and a Hereford) but between you and Millenial Farmer and Cole the Cornstar, I am learning so much.

[@itsshrike1237]

You should watch 10th generation dairy farmer videos. Gives a great perspective on livestock farming compared to arable farming

[@michelekuhne9179]

itsSHRIKE123 I will do that, thanks for the recommendation! I grew up in dairy country.

[@marksinn3173]

Hated to see the 1150 hit the trail, but you have those awesome Buds already! Enough upkeep without an outsider.

Awe sad day. I am a through and through Versatile girl. So miss the 835 & 975 we had. I put over 3000 hours on our 835. And think was 1800 on the 975. It was just a few years old. Dad passed and the farm was sold

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Welkers good luck finishing combining

Pretty cool those Versatile Tractors are made here in Winnipeg. I've been an a tour through their manufacturing facility

Maybe find another International 9370 truck and restore? Lot of work but awesome truck and cheap to buy. No modern emissions rubbish either! You guys must see such a difference in harvest compared to a few years ago? So much easier now its actually great fun.

I love that old peterbilt with that cat 3406. I think keep it if at all possible. You can't get a new Caterpillar truck engine anymore, but they can be rebuilt.

Still waiting to see more about that light leg arms installed on the new auger. I'm curious how that works. He's mentioned it a couple times but I don't think he's ever showed it in detail. Or is it a patent pending invention he created and can't yet talk about? Love the channel by the way!!

[@notvaporlocked5479]

Wheat dust is nothing. Milo dust is 10x worse. Like microscopic gravel. I knew a farmer that quit raising it because he hated it in the old days with open combine platforms and even though new combines had climate controlled cabs with great air filtration and clean cabs, he said he just couldn’t get past the memories 🙂

[@richardjellis9186]

I'd be putting sand in the trench first, for the cable to lay on something that definitely doesn't have any small rocks in. And... Put that 'beware cable below', tape in the bottom, below it, just in case anyone from the west Russia/east European areas, dig through. That's good, sound advice 😂. Rich UK 🥰
