Border View Farms is a mid-sized family farm that sits on the Ohio-Michigan border. My name is Nathan. I make and edit all of the videos posted here. I farm with my dad, Mark and uncle, Phil. Our part-time employee, Brock, also helps with the filming. 1980 was our first year in Waldron where our main farm is now. Since then we have grown the operation from just a couple hundred acres to over 3,000. Watch my 500th video for a history of our farm I filmed with my dad.
I started making these videos in the fall of 2019 as a way to help show what I do on a daily basis as a farmer. Agriculture is different from any other industry and I believe the more people that are showing their small piece of agriculture, helps to build our story. We face unique challenges and stressful situations but have some of the most rewarding payoffs in the end. I get to spend everyday doing what I love, raising my kids on the farm, and trying to push our farm to be better every year. I hope that I can address questions or concerns that you might have about farms and agriculture.
I hope you enjoy my content and ask questions as you have them. I do my best to answer anything I can. Thanks for watching!

16:09 This is the point where I lose my shit. You did well to keep it together.

[@jocalafarms4051]

Only thing Sunday is is the first day of a new week. Worked 14 hrs yesterday and plan on another 14 today. Go time means go time, everything else takes a back seat.

[@thomaskjellin9161]

Thanks for the video

[@jeffweber6770]

This video is the reason his channel is the best. I love to see all the ups but the downs are real and he shows them all and I'm all for it. Super frustrating I bet but love it!

[@minutemanmac]

I too make sure my kids fasten down the dirt! Keeps the wind from blowing it away! 😂

[@andrewfarnsworth8103]

Bad luck always comes in threes nathen so just be glad u got all urs done quickly. Good luck with rest planting we hope start too this week in uk

[@Husker3435]

Hang in there Nathan, like you said , at 10 mph you can plant a ton of acres. Ahhh, the ole Sunday curse… been there😁

[@burtzorn4059]

Wish my health was better, i would love to help you out. Hopefully you had a good Monday.

[@TubeSnoman]

It's definately some black magic for a rim to turn square, or at least a polygon of sorts, Oh Yeah the cursed days, always seems to happen when the shops are shut and you're flat out. But an old fella once told me, machines don't breakdown sitting in the shed

[@SteveMccarthyAus]

Keep up the good work, hopefully the Tuesday rain forecast changes for you

[@burtzorn4059]

Isn't as bad as me one night, I was tired probably not paying the best attention. Got about 4 yards of dirt ahead of the gang on a Miller disk and ripped it clean off. And if you ever seen one they are heavy built. Tractor never bogged down Turned on the end and guess what it was GONE.

[@wallyhuppert9077]

Your going to have a stroke when you see the price of that flow meter and those meters never fail

[@Simon-tm9xr]

That's one of those days when you have to repeat to yourself.."I love farming"..."I love farming"..."I love farming"

[@glennjett2858]

I feel for y’all. I’ve been subscribed for 4+ years now. This early year seems ‘off’ compared to other years. I know you have to take it in stride but I see how irritating this is for you. Much continued success. 😎🇺🇸

[@christinesnyder8850]

This comment is for Brock. Looks like their is one common denominator with the 3 problems on Sunday. Ha ha it always happens when you try to push at the first of the year. Everything looked good when greasing and making sure everything was ready to go. Push things and they start coming apart. Same here, know how you feel.

[@jayfojtik5262]

When it’s time to plant, you gotta plant. Breakdowns happen regardless of the day. I think the Lord understands! Just keep on taking what you can get.

[@kenia7430]

As I used to mumble "Somedays the only thing working is me" Hang in there it wll get better

[@budweiser7507]

My father didn’t work Sundays neither do I. It’s not worth missing your kids growing up and a day off makes you more productive the next week. The one Sunday I remember my dad working my brother lost an arm in a farm accident

[@kirklothert3435]

I'm sure God will forgive him & when it's time to go that means it's time to go

[@terrywalton5861]

No Sunday work this is what happens

[@kirklothert3435]

​@@terrywalton5861... What do you mean?

[@verajamieson8020]

Sunday should be church,family n friends.🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@BorderViewFarms]

I went to church, and had my family riding with me

[@larryesmith5060]

When your farming you have to work on Sunday when it's go time God will understand

[@bladewiper]

Yes, all of this happened on Sunday. But if all of this had been parked for a day, it just would have happened on Monday.

[@caryholt54]

All equipment breaks at some point. New or old. I am generally impressed by your maintenance program and also how fast you are usually able to handle pop-up repairs. I may poke fun at not running water through your fertilizer applicators before go time but otherwise things happen.

[@BorderViewFarms]

I did run water though them

[@bfd1565]

Bummer. Today will be a better day. Hopefully the rain will skirt south of you tomorrow. Best wishes Nathan.

[@rickperry9546]

I don’t remember when you dropped the box of corn… great video…. Have a safe and enjoyable planting and tillage Season.

[@stephenmarshall2261]

Cut in a bypass to recirculate the fertilizer back to the tankwith a valve to regulate the bleed off pressure

[@jeremiahchmielowiec2696]

Remember it will get better.it is no fun having break down when it is go time

[@stevebiddle8912]

Not a good day for sure!! Tomorrow will be better. What a beautiful sunset!!

[@maxfender6886]

Good Morning

[@mathdj01]

Just watched the video, how was today?

[@BorderViewFarms]

Much better

[@mikekenyon3322]

Good morning

[@nickjewart9351]

Your "bad" day would be a good day for lots of farmers

[@davidruffjr6045]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@dirkmasur1899]

Murphy's law, when the day starts bad { packer}, it ends bad, {tire}, and most of the time it never changes in between, don't worry, you gonna have better day's, just smiiiiiile,

[@rockfosg]

You gave the roller to much credit the other day.. jinxed it😅

[@charlesleeneihaus592]

The early beans you planted which beans are coming up first the ones that are planted shallow or the ones that are a little dipper

[@stanbrow]

Sorry you had a bad day.

[@robertkroboth4514]

That's why I don't work on Sundays only if it's absolutely necessary

[@gregcatlett1458]

Manuel valve shut it down to were you need pressure???😬😬

[@JoaoPires-pd9ot]

Oi 👍👍👍

[@michaelhelmick8225]

A plan is a point from which to deviate, right?

[@robertkroboth4514]

My son don't want to work on Sunday

[@agger838]

Sucks u can't run the fertilizer on manual pressure

[@micahmiller4122]

What is one day? I think it has changed over the years...or we have. 2 Peter 3:8-9

[@hugmansgrill1077]

What determines disking vs cultivating

[@BorderViewFarms]

Last years corn stalks going to beans generally get disked, bean or wheat stubble going to corn always gets field cultivated.

[@Hendog1001]

Nathan, it seems you have hit a streak of bad luck where just nothing wants to work with you. I think we are all very aware of the time crunch coming hoping for your sake that you have found a flow-meter for the 2x2x2 fertilizer and are hopefully so busy planting you can not even watch the comments here

[@user-kl3ij6cd3j]

way too many breakdowns to have such new equipment. Maybe time for something different.
