Living on a corn field in a hammock
Farmer Derek set up his hammock on his pivot in a 60 acre field. It will be running while he spends the night in his hammock. Nothing bad could happen, right? Watch to the end to see what Farmer Derek sees. Subscribe to our channel for more farm fun.
Thanks to our video sponsor Farmers Edge: www.farmersedge.ca/
Farmer Derek lives and works on the Klingenberg Family farm and ranch. He works with his Dad and two brothers. They raise Corn, Soybeans, Wheat, Cattle, and Cats. They background all the cattle and then graze them in the Flint Hills and they end up at the feedyards in Western Kansas.
The farm was started in the mid 30's by his grandpa who immigrated from West Prussia in 1923 when he was 9.
Growing up, Derek's family priorities consisted of church, family, work, music, and eating a lot. He now has his own family of three cute girls along with his wife Kara. Derek spends his time working on the farm, dancing with his girls, and making KZfaq videos.

I’ve done that years ago, was a unique experience. Got to see fireflies, meteors, satellites, and even the thunderhead in the distance...and got bit up by mosquitoes. Our pivot had an end gun on it though, so hearing that all night was an added bonus. Good footage, glad I wasn’t the only one to say I’ve done it!

(Corn sprinkler) AKA center pivot? If someone wanted to, they could take the reversing stop of the the end gun, and when it spun around it would blast him but good. LOL

I spent a lot of time and covered a lot of miles researching the book I wrote on corn--which includes an entry on pivots -- and I can honestly say that, not only did I never see anything like this, I never actually imagined anything like this Thanks for continuing to push the boundaries of farm love. (Oh -- and loved the KZfaq arrow outlined in the distance.)

The next step is to build a wheelable through the rows elevated lightweight summer screen room with mini deck for the stars. a two burner stove gas stove and an ice filled cooler - no bugs or dampness. Drinking morning coffee looking at at the amazing high summer corn. In just a few months it's zero to how many feet at max height? I bet you can hear the corn grow in that silence in July with a mic taped to the stalk. Anyone, what is the highest you have ever seen a cornstalk grow?

@oliverjd26 5 жыл бұрын

That was awesome farmer Derek! I like the Easter egg you hit in the video. Or another words the KZfaq play button in the field! And the ending with the pillow was hilarious! Just one more reason I love farming, always something to make you smile. Keep up the good work!

Do those pivots constantly put out water until it is harvest time? I was curious how much water is used for crops. I assume the Farmers Edge software tells you how much water you used? Can it turn them off if it rains?

I don't know if Off! has any different formula, but the only ones I have seen say to never apply it to skin, put it on clothes only, remove them immediately when finished outdoors, and wash them (immediately?). Just some safety information in case anyone needs it. See package for actual instructions. :-)
