Will try to get out there within a week to get more pictures and make one more video with some facts and figures.

Thanks!

EthaN it’s always windy when you cover up, Sod’s law 😂

I think they may have been spot gluing but not for sure.

Limestone

Powdered or actual stone? ! Is this corn for cattle feed or energy?

Is this the real life, or is this just fantasy?

It is not powdered limestone but more of a sand textured. The corn is for feeding dairy cattle so it is an energy source and a roughage to provide for proper rumen function.

Sometimes real life is stranger than fantasy ;-)

Yeah Just what i thought

I counted 53

Chopped corn, and it's used to feed cattle

The RongDong it’s usually chopped grass or maize/corn

1,282 acres. It was suppose to be 1,600 acres but bad weather was coming in so they cut this pile short and made another smaller one with the remaining acres later.

wow. in my farm only 20 acres

1,282 acres (2 square miles) that averaged 30.54 tons/acres at an average moisture of 68%. I plan on producing another video soon with all the fact and figures.

@Geert verhees hello how are you doing ?

@Emmanuel lovnicki hello how are you doing ?

Feed it to dairy cattle once it ferments.

Silage cannot be only used to feed, you also need to feed them dry hay

@@eti2332 a cow can survive quite long on only corn silage! But if you want to feed a milk cow that shall milk say 100 pound quality milk a day you need more! A standard milk cow ration can be for example 600 kg corn silage + 200 kg hay + 100 kg straw + 100 kg barley + vitamins and minerals.. But usually its a veterinar feed expert that set up a feeding plan after what feed the farmer can get in hes area.. say cotton seeds ore leftover corn from etanol production and so on. 😀

its not shrink wrap is it? the type thats used for construction.

@@cobraboxer3648 no. The thin pink plastic is cald oxygen barrier its almost 100% air tight, cind of like a big condom. 😁 But its not strong against long exposure to sun rays.. thats why they add the thicker plastic white-black to protect it.

Yes, they use 2 layers of plastic to limit the oxygen and allow better fermentation of the silage. They milk about 3,200 cows there.

3200 cows to make a living? wow must be really bad managers if it takes that many cows to make a living I make a living on 40 cows it's farms like this is why milk price is so bad

MH DairyFarm and you are just stupid

Johan Bracquene and what do you no about dairy farming? I have been doing it my hole life go take a flying leap punk

@@mhdairyfarm1356 I think u need to take into the count the scale of things that they run in America and how many people need to get paid, care for the cows, new machines make a big cut in the earnings too and all the other necessitties for running the farm as big as 3,200 cows

It is corn silage

I am not sure of the name of the music group as the music is part of a media library subscription I purchased with ScreenFlow, the program I use to make the videos.

theres a east meets west group called sachal studios... excellent orchestra

That drone position is called on the hood as I was on my last battery and it was down to 10% battery which was enough to still run the video camera. I landed the drone and positioned it on the hood of a truck that was on a hill to finish. If you wish to make a donation to the University so I could buy a few more batteries I will attempt to do a better job next time. :-)

Jim Baltz shots fired

Tam piach skąd tyle opon wziąść

Ciekawe ile mu ta bateria w dronie trzyma 🤔😀😁

T F it doesn't have to be that big I make a living on 40 cows it's farms like that is what is completely destroying the dairy industry they get big like that because they are to dam lazy to do the work themselves but still want to say they are a dairy farmer if it takes that many cows to make a living then they are really bad managers it's time these big dairy farms take a flying leep they are completely destroying what was once a respected profitable industry

sorry I ment to say I make a living on 40 cows

From your statement I am assuming you have never been to Stone Ridge Dairy and you have never had the privilege of meeting the owner. Stone Ridge Dairy is one of the best managed farms I have ever been on. If you classify lazy as a person doing what they enjoy most of the day then I would have to agree with you about the owner being lazy. Every time I have been to the farm the owner has been there working with the employees and he appears to love working with the cows and in the fields. I am really glad to know that you can make a living on 40 cows as I found it hard at times when I was dairy farming milking with a 150 cows. I never had your opinion on larger dairy farms as they help keep dairy support businesses going in our area. I also know the owner of Stone Ridge Dairy is very supportive of the community and supporting the dairy industry in Illinois which he has repeatedly demonstrated. Large dairy farms also have a major impact on the local economy. The following is from a report titled “Dairy in Pennsylvania: A Vital Engine for Economic Development”: Pennsylvania is home to a mixture of large and small dairy farms. While producing milk, these farms spend most of their money locally. About 85 percent of their income is used to support local businesses and the community tax base. In doing so, dairy farms create a ripple effect on both the agricultural industry and the economic well-being of the commonwealth. When a dairy farm spends money locally, it creates a multiplier effect more than two times the original dollar. In other words, for every one dollar a dairy farm spends, roughly $2.50 in wages and related business transactions is contributed to the local economy.

Jim Baltz I guess what I'm wondering is why milk that many cows and flood the market when you can make a living on 40-100 cows? it doesn't make sense to me

Not saying their are bad people or bad managers...just that it would be nice if the industry had the ability to make enough milk on a smaller scale to raise a family. You shouldn't have to milk 1000 cows and get paid less per gallon than bottled water.
