Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

There is something satisfying about watching the corn being eaten up by the combine. Just the shear volume of material being consumed. Even as a kid I would ride the old Massey with my uncle .Probably explains my poor hearing now. Used to have nightmares about about trying to keep trucks empty to stay ahead of two combines. Other than extreme cost any reason why you guys never bit the bullet and put up an elevator and some big bins? Good luck with harvest.

So I’m not trying to tell y’all how to run your operation by all means. Everyone has reasons for everything but just going to put my opinion out. To me it seems like y’all would be more efficient with a 12 row on your 780 since your trucks can’t really keep up or what’s yalls opinion on that. I know a 12 row head is expensive but it would have to be cheaper than 2 8s and the cost of running 2 combines

@aTrippyFarmer
@aTrippyFarmer Жыл бұрын
Anything can make sense if you are a believer in it. Grain storage in general is a good investment. Adding a leg and a drier is another worthwhile venture if that is a direction that you’d like to take your farming operation. It’s more of a capital allocation decision and less of an efficacy thing. I think we will add something within the next 5-10 years to the main bin site. I’d like to put up a few more bins in the meantime.
