Trying an Esch no-till drill this year instead of our John Deere to see if we can get a better alfalfa stand.

I wonder if you could harrow the field with the chickweed to rake some of it off to reduce the build-up on the drill? Thank you farmers for all of your hard work and feeding America.

After reading an article here in Ohio, have you had to “pour milk down the drain” due to lack of demand with schools closed? I hope not. I’ve still been a heavy drinker. Best beverage to enjoy with baked goods, pancakes, cereal and CHOCOLATE. In this presentation, green was definitely the color of the day: tractor, planter, sweatshirt, chickweed and other green grasses. You earned your “greenbacks” (money) that day! Plus, there’s nothing like that smell of cut alfalfa!

Yes I would really hate to think that anyone it's pouring good milk down the drain There are so many different things that you can do with milk: whole milk, skim milk, flavored milk , tons of different types of cheeses ( soft cheese, hard cheese, cottage cheese), yogurt, perhaps other things that I didn't mention or didn't know

I hate milk. I do not use milk products. They deplete you of calcium. Dairy is a sham, a racket, a snafoo. Cows and this video is cool though. Farmers are righteous. This guy knows his stuff.

Found this channel by accident, started watching and thought "that guy talks like he is from SE PA". Then I saw the video of the area and looked like the Lancaster area. Sure enough I was right, I live about an hour away from you and visit that area occasionally. Great to see videos of hard working Pennsylvanians. Keep up the good work and the great videos!

I used to run the same model Esch Drill. The sponge meters and variable speed gear box are excellent, best drill I've ever used. You can plant literally anything with that drill. They're built out of heavy gauge steel. Can't say enough about them, by far my favorite drill I've ever used. I used a couple hydraulic donuts on the lift cylinders to control the depth that it was allowed to dig. It's so heavy that in soft soil it will plug if you only rely on the closing wheels for depth control. Good to keep a couple of them on hand for that. I probably planted a few thousand acres of sudex, alfalfa/grass, milet, rye, ryegrass/crimson clover, etc. Really miss that drill...

10 Generation Dairyman - Its funny every time I go to Rite Aid I always go to the dairy case to pick up a pint of chocolate milk and a gallon of vitamin D milk From Clover Farms. I find this milk to be creamier and have a better taste than for say Wawa. I Thank You and your family for all your hard work and dedication bringing the freshest milk 🥛 possible to my table.

I always lower my closing wheel as low as it will go to keep my openers from going so deep. The sod cutting wheel doesn't really matter how deep it goes the deeper the better. It kind of aerates the ground. By lowering the closing wheel it lifts up on the openers. You can also put cylinder stops in so there isn't so much down pressure. Keep on keeping on. Love the videos

Hey we got that no till drill since we almost exclusively do grass and having the closer spacing is super nice. We have an early model and the gearbox isn’t quite right so we can never trust the graph we have to always calibrate every year. Haven’t had much of a problem with the disks ever plugging like that, the ground might be too wet we always plant when it’s slightly crumbly
