That machine really spreads a lot of manure. They should name it The Politician

Thanks for explaining how they empty the hose. I've always wondered that.

I won't tell you just how old I am, but you're never too old to learn. A mile long hose snaking out. 500,000 gallons without stopping. That's really something. Thanks!

That's a cool process of applying the manure. Thanks for showing.

I really enjoy the manure spreading videos. That way is definitely a lot less messy or seemed to be. Take care

Our custom pumpers use a drag line, works great, so much faster than tanking! Great video!

Wow, never seen this method , very cool thanks for showing us 👍

I manage a dragline in Manitoba, Canada. It is by far the most common type of manure application here. We pump about 130 millions gallons a year from April until November up to 4 miles away!

Interesting way to put the liquid on the fields take care and thank you

Manure on the field and then rain!! Perfect timing!!!!

Over here in Northern Ireland they are used alot. We call them a dribble bar. Government says they have to be used less pollution and better for the grass

Your farm is so clean beautiful love your videos keep up good work 🍀🍀🍀🍀

So many new technologies to learn something from. By the way, I haven't seen Duchess for a while, I hope she is okay. Shes such a spitfire.

i have seen that on farms here in Vermont,but have never worked on a farm where they spread manure like that

When I was a kid we would take family trips from western New York to western Maryland to visit family and would take the 219 south through Pennsylvania. Whenever we drove by a farm that had recently spread manure I would complain about the smell and my Dad would always say "That's fresh country air. It's good for you." And wouldn't let me roll the window up. I got over it and now I say the same to my kids. 😂

Human ingenuity at its best.

That's some cool tech! Can't wait to see you back in the fields.

Very cool vid. When you said the “field over the road” I thought you misspoke…had me wondering how you’d get the line across. That was a neat way to do it! Excellent video.

Great video Eric! The drone footage was a great overview of the operation. Always very appreciative of your details regarding the fine points...running the hose under the road, flushing out the lines with air, foam ball to squeegee every last drop. Always impressed with your operations. Thanks for the video!

In Scotland that slurry spreader is called a Dribble Bar. Never used one myself but they are becoming popular, partly to do with regulations.

So many things to consider regarding manure spreading and soil compaction. Liked your proactive opening of cow barn to prevent buildup of games. Very informative. Keep up the great work!

LOVE ❤️ ALL YOUR VIDEOS ERIC HAVE A GREAT DAY

Quite an impressive pump.

That is one clever manure spreading system there Eric. Hoping it makes a big difference for you. Thanks.

Fascinating to me. I never realized that was an option. As a firefighter, it is hard to imagine the forces at the coupler on the tractor. That hose when full is tremendously heavy. It is significantly heavier(larger) than our supply lines in firefighting. Another great video, thanks!

Interesting video with the dragline ,loved seeing the cows jumping when they got the new bedding

Pretty cool! Appreciate you sharing and trying new things out!

Great to see you trying something new :-). In the UK using a dribble bar on a tanker or via hoses and pump is very common and works great. Helps reduce the ammonia in the air.

Use a lot of draglines around here for hog manure, but it's more injectors here than top spread, we are further north

Wow that was very interesting, I can see where using this type of method would be more effective/efficient than the spraying method. That was a lot of manure, 525 thousand, hopefully you see some real noticeable results, good luck. I hope you all have a great weekend, thanks a lot.

Great technology at work. Thank you for.the video. Excellent content.

It’s interesting to see the drone views of the dragline operating. Makes the process easier to understand. Also enjoyed seeing your new house across the road! Thanks for the educational video!

Very common method of spreading slurry in Northern Ireland although the dangers of fumes from agitating is real. A man and his two sons died a few years ago after being overcome by the release of the gases.

Always something new. Thanks for sharing this!

Very interesting Eric the way you try new things.

Love the overhead footage of the farm. You guys have a very nice farm. God bless our farmers

Very interesting technique. Thats a crapload of tubing...pun intended. The drone footage helps a lot.

Amazing technology!

Incredible technology ! Amazing !!

Looks like the drip application is the way to go, and it doesn't appear to have a lot of overlap. There is a KZfaqr, Rose on the Farm, whose family business is farming and spreading manure for other farmers in Minnesota and Iowa mostly. It is a pretty interesting process. Using the manure spread for bedding seems a good idea also, nice and even distribution. Thank you for sharing.

I’d seen dragline pumping before but never considered how the pipe crossed the road. Super interesting, you’d want nice clear culverts!😅

This is one of the most fascinating things I've seen happen on your channel in a while...Totally amazing how they do that! I sure hope you notice a difference with the corn harvest. I know you will let us all know. Be safe.

We use to run PCE dragline. 2800 gallons a minute.. clean lagoons and being able to start ground work a couple days after injection is the key! Broadcast spreading the waiting time is a lot longer!

this was very interesting. You make the best videos Eric. Thank you and bless you and your family

I love your channel learn something every time I watch 1 of your great videos this is very interesting I hope it works out for you all and you get a better crop. Thank you again

Great awesome video Eric. Less soil compaction is the key , no manure tanks way better if ur moving a lot of liquid manure

You should just see how big dragline spreaders can become. It has been required to either use draghose or injection for the last 20 years in Denmark. The biggest self-propelled Agrometer dragline spreders do 120 feet (36 meters) in one pass!

Tom pemberton switched to a dribble bar similar with his tanker due to regulations. It is more eviormentaly friendly, less amonia in the air, more nutirents in the ground. That was smart and efficient. When you said dragline i was waiting to see a bucyrus crane, and dragline bucket and had no clue it was for maure spreading. :) LOL Tom and the Ginger warrior noticed a huge bump in the grasses. Wishing you a plentiful grass crop, and corm crop.

I’m an engineer, and this is amazing to me! Very cool equipment.

That is a very interesting spreader set up. The amount of hose is incredible. It seem to always be something new out there. Great video!

I have seen this done before but never the whole process. It is amazing how far they can pump it. I was wondering how they were going to empty all that hose but you even explained that great job!

Erik hat dragline system seems awesome. Sounds like it works better for you but also seems like it a lot less handling of the liquid once you get set up. Great video! Real interesting! 👍👍

That was very interesting! IMO, One of your best yet….. Thank you for explaining everything! That is key!

These things are pretty cool. I just wrapped up planting for a dairy that used one of these on their home farm and tankers everywhere else and the ground was so much more mellow behind the the dragline.

I would have that hose twisted up like a pretzel or 2 in about 10 minutes or less. Thanks Eric great job per usual 👍

Draglining is a great way to spread manure. Especially if you have a load of fields close to eachother. Here in our area in the Netherlands they have been doin it for over 20 years. Nowadays they run it with injectors into the ground. But i never seen em drag the hose around with a 2nd tractor. And i think our contractor had the tractor on 900mm tyres for this. Massive!

Thanks for the video. Always enjoy the new Ag technology videos. I am glad you are able to work on reducing compaction in your fields. Take care and wishing you the best for moving into your new home soon.

2 👍👍 up bro stay safe out there 🤞🥾

Awesome drone footage

Gezz, those are some early hours. Glad I cant smell that over KZfaq. Great work Eric.

Seeing that compressor and pump reminds me of when I pumped water! They are crazy machines

My family farm uses dragline manure spreading on their fields.

Great video Eric! Love seeing tractors out in the fields again.

That’s incredibly awesome Eric thanks for sharing that process with us

Wow that's pretty cool 👍🏾

Very interesting method. Looks pretty slick. Sure beats pitching manure onto a spreader…..always a springtime task on our little farm, in 1956.

Using the manure spreader to shred and spread all that hay is a big brain gamer move 😂

I love the aroma benefits of this contraption.

Yes sir! It’s a Good Friday! 🎉

Wad always so interested in the actual application of manure like this. There are a few farms here in NY that do it this way. Thank you for letting us come along and watch!!!

The only thing that you might find with the dribble bar on the crop your cutting in spring is a high ash content from how thick the slurry is as the plant grows it stops rain washing it in

Great video, very informative.

Very interesting how that's done! Thanks for the great video!!

It will be interesting to see the results, thanks for sharing.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for sharing!

Very cool. The first time I saw that done was on I Farm We Farm. I could not figure it out, soooo, I goggled it. Farming is (especially dairy farming) is very interesting. KUDOS for your great channel.

Yea always awesome to watch your day wow it is amazing to see the way that the manure is pumped out amazing how much it covers

Using the very long hose is fascinating and interesting to watch, thanks. I can count on you to provide a great diversion from more serious videos and media. Edit: "The average swimming pool takes 18,000-20,000 gallons of water to fill." Your guys spread 27 swimming pools of manure on your farm. 😀

Awesome video I learned something new and I love to watch the cows after yall put in bedding

Awesome Video and Much Love as Always 🐄 Man!!

I think this system is a way to go forward!

Amazing, I never have seen that done before. I local farmer was injecting his land a few weeks ago. The tankers were lined up for quite a way.

Great to see you trying something new

Very interesting video! Never saw this method before.

Very interesting, thanks!

That’s a lot of hose and a lot of 🐮🐮💩. The circle of life! 🤍🤍🤍

Thank you for being my inspiration.

Fascinating. When I saw the word, "Dragline," I automatically thought of the giant dragline excavators! How do you spread manure with a dragline excavator? LOL. Now I know and it means this system.

wow Hoover has come a long ways from vacuum cleaners,,,good job,,,be patient and no fault..

Very ingenious way of spreading manure. It'll probably pay to have them come back. Stay safe.

Great video. Probably watch again and again. I miss your Pa and Princess.

Here this side of the pond we call it an umbilical system, they are how most of us spread our slurry especially the ground close to the yard, this year we used a nurse tank and the umbilical system on our out farm five miles away.

Very common here in Ireland is this system, you can move large volumes of slurry in one day plus it can be pumped further if needed but another pump is required for this to happen!! Very impressive outfit Eric..🚜🚜🚜

You should look up Farmer Phil in Ireland. He will show you the Irish way to use the dribble bar.

very interesting.. thanks for sharing.

I wish my farmer did this, I’m surrounded by his fields…. It smells awesome all year!

Looks great! We did the same thing last year on our triticale

ingenuity in action-facinating,good vid-God bless-hope it's cost effective

Thanks Eric !
