On behalf of Ernie thank you for putting him back to work.

I think Ernie 2.0 is the Boss he stops, goes, and wanders just when ever he wants too. 👍

Hi from Argentina, Akron is an argentinian company, and we are so proud that their machines are used all over the World. Also I want to add that bags were created here too

Use the differential lock on Ernie 2.0 to keep him straight.

We used to staple the bag to a 2x4 and roll it up, makes it way nicer to deal with when extracting

How many Canadians does it take to fill a grain bag?

“I can’t think of any right now but I guess there’s worse things” that was funny 😆

Ernie 2.0 is looking good. He was probably just scared of the big green machine and trying to get as far away as possible. 😆 thanks Mike

Hi Mike how are you doing hope you and family are well and thank you for all the great videos. You always teach us how to be a great farmer

Good luck combining your 2023 crops at your north farm Mike and Ashtyn

thank you for putting him back to work.

I don’t know why but I like the grain bag videos.👍

Great video Mike

We run the base pan just off the ground rather what looks like 6-8” that you are so the bottom of the bag doesn’t make such a sharp direction change.

Next time I'm in SK and see a crooked grain bag I'll know where your place is!

Lol ol Ernie. Being difficult

Ernie gonna making bags when the Deere's long recycled :D

Had a large farmer in our area bagged all their sunflowers talking several thousand acres. Few years back. When they stsrted hauling out thdy discovered some type of disease in the flowers. The whole crop was rejected by company that took them. Producer had insurance on the crop so it wasnt total loss. Long story short they went around and burned all the bags scattered all over a country.

Ernie has a mind of his own. 😅

😂😂 ernie is going on vacation! 😂

Now that is a bagging tractor 10 out of ten

This whole concept is really cool! Thanks for showing us the ropes, Mike! ;) I think this kind of storage will be used a lot more in the future - sadly, because no farmer would use all this plastic to store their grain if they could afford the bins to handle all of their crops, but it is always great to have such a good way to take care of excess crops in those rare years when you really get a good yield! This method is starting to make its way into Europe as well, I guess mostly because of all that flexibility. I mean, it is a bit more work, but buildings and handling facilities like at a bin site would be pretty expensive. The exuipment, like the one for filling the bags, and the extractor doesn´t really take up a lot of space when stored, but you´ve got close to infinite space available for storing crops when you need it. If it was me, I´d cut a 17-18" wooden stick to measure that stretch, seems a lot more handy than that flimsy strip of paper... ;) Also, I think every farmer around the world can relate to doing your comment about doing anything where other farmers can see it ;D ;D ;D Everyone likes to point out any crooked lines, bald spots or what have you! I think it´s kinda funny though, and I think every farmer commenting on it knows exactly how easily it could happen to themselves ;) Ernie 2.0 is looking real good doing his thing, though - gotta love those old timers :)

We usually tie the grain bag ends then kick them under and start filling.

My son has a bagger and we have remote controls on it so buggy driver can turn on pto, rev up tractor ,adjust brake pressure and steer bagger tractor from seat of buggy tractor. Unfortunately the steering on MF 1135 needs new wave washers in hand pump so it wanders worse if you have steering control motor engaged.

Mike, you need to put Ag leader auto steer on old Ernie. That way you can set an a line and I’ll drive perfectly straight every time.

Might need to get Bert out to whip ole Ernie into shape.

You should go Pro-level and put a side reach tow bar on the grain cart tractor to both steer and pull Ernie up the hills! Then you just need the second person to measure the grain bag, talk, and wave their arms like they are important!

Magnifique machine pour les bâche pour les céréales et bien intéressante 😂😊😮😅

How to you keep tractor going straight while filling the bag. We have used bailing twine

Hi we always use the bag the other way around We pull the bag from the inside so there are no risk of damage the bag agents the edges of the bager.

We use the break between 900 and 1.000 in flat floor, not in a hill. Also i think you should put the machine lower

Another awesome video! What’s life of bags holding grain due to weather conditions?

Mike Just a thought I just got back from Japan and as I was traveling I came across these Robotic wolves that they use to keep wild animals away from agriculture areas. the use inferred in the dark .No more deer problems lol.

ahhh 11:30 looked for it to be 1111 lol but that's a pretty awesome shot dude!!! MAY YOUR HARVEST BE OVERABUNDANT !!!! :) may ANY ONE THAT HARVESTS ANYTHING FOR THE GOOD OF ( more than self, for the good of the all &self ) MAY ANYONE THAT HARVESTS ANYTHING GOOD HAVE OVER ABUNDANT HARVESTs!!!! :) MAY YORU WEATHER BE FAVORABLE !!!! :) here's to the END OF THE DROUGHTS :) !!!!! HERE HERE !!

How many combine loads is 1 full bag? There need to be a way to see inside the hopper so you can balance out both orgers and get it as quick as efficient possible

Hey Mike, if you engaged Ernie's diff lock would that help keep him going straight & true, got to be worth a try eh?

Mike you need to take the strap and put it threw the slot on the pan not behind the pan like you have it. Keep the bagger tilted towards tractor a bit makes use of the slope of the bagger wall to assist with pushing 15” is no stretch in the bag that’s factory length of the mark good luck

Mike have you ever heard of a neeralta bagger they work awsome 👌

we lay 400ft bags by jansen. like 30 of them. hill rule is dumb, flat with 800lbs brake and a remote to steer the bagger tractor. even measuring your bag, 19000 bushels easy

How many bushels or tons would a whole bag hold? Before the deer get to it 😊

How many times can you empty your grain cart into a grain bag till its full?

I’ve never seen this bagging process so what’s the purpose for bagging grain in the field, no trucks to haul??!

Hey I thought that rubber strap that helps hold the bag on was supposed to go through the bottom pan of the bagger? Maybe that was just a mainaro thing?🤷

Upgrade Ernie with a universal autotrac or bag behind the hill away from the eyes of the neighbours(thats what i do :P)

And that’s a wrap!

mike your too used to not doing grain bags🤣

But Mike, how much did the bags go up in price.

Bungee cord goes through pan.

Mike those bags are a pain in the ass🙄😂

6:56 can anybody link the video mentioned? (Oats 2022)

Hey how you know, about the brake,😉

Oh well, it worked

Ernie the stretcher / drifter. 🤭

Hola ....a la bolsa atalo un hilo o u a madera y Enrollala ponerle unos clavos así no renegas con el comenzó de la bolsa

Have you ever thought about those "mother bins" like they use in Australia instead of the bagger? I'd assume the cost makes no sense for your operation?

Nothing is like a real bin....only one person is needed to fill a bin , or empty it

Mikey if you didn't have bad luck you wouldn't have any luck.

Like trying to herd cats. My cousin Steve is like Ernie. He's not straight.

Morning

Hi 👋

How about a solar powered electric fence around the bag to keep animals from poking holes in it and climbing on it-?

My name is Akryn to with a Y though 😂😂😂

Ernest needs guidance. How about some autosteer updates Mike?

put autosteer on ernie to ave straight bag

BROOOO 😁 ❤

👋😊

It looks to me like bagging isn't very efficient use of resources. But I am sure I don't know the whole picture.

No diff lock on MF 1135

Xxxxl condoms - wow Canada !!😂😂😂

Better an S bag than a broken bag eh?

Mike, do you ever dump mouth balls around your bags?

yer runnin a PTO... dude... there HAS TO HAVE BEEN SOMEONE THAT MADE A UNIT THAT WRAPS AROUND THE PTO WITH MAGNETS AND IT PRODUCES 12 VOLTS TO CHARGE BATTERY AND keep the lights on when you are running the pto and its night... and with the extra TRONS flowing you can plug in the DEMONITONIZER MORE (the radio) and have TUNES AT THE BAGGER !!! and fi someone needs the idea on paper to get it done, lets talk if there is no such device yet and soemoemn says yea that sounds needed and neet... I have an idea bout a protable dragoon that will heat up the oil in a machine ... and it's a HOT WATER pressure washer... AND it's a (there are like 4 other modules...)

Your starting your bags wrong. Seal it, twist it under, then start. You don't need to load the end.

don't you wish you were back south where you dont need bags and you can drive faster with your combines ?

Too bad their isnt a hydraulic drive on bagger to help regulate the ground speed would be much more simpler for operator instead of having an extra man to ride brakes on tractor

Man thats a lame ass Hooter John Deere have put in their X9's... lol

Id much rather watch you and ernie 2.0 farm but its just not way practical for you i know. It just something about the old.iron thats better

Am I the only one that finds it EXTREMELY odd when people speak in 3rd person? It’s actually a sign of narcissism

Great video Mike
