All I can say is I’ve watched 90% of your videos and that’s only because I’m still running back through some of the earlier videos. I’ve never once said or thought the content was anything less than amazing. You’re showing us something we don’t get to see much of down in the US. I can’t imagine seeing the equipment you run in person. I mean a 45’ drill is a full load going down the road in central Indiana. So please, please never change a thing. Keep on farming brother. We’ll be here to support ya.

I also like wide views, but you should relise what it was in the past, how much greater biodiversity, before we human cultivate it in a mono culture without hardly any live and poor crops. Just the quantity makes some on those farms. It's the same what you see in Brasil where they 'cultivate' the rain forest

You don’t make money in the good years… you make it in the poor years to set yourself up for the good years. If Mike just kept staying the same every year the farm would no longer be growing and if you aren’t growing in any business you are falling behind as someone else is gonna take advantage of you. This doesn’t even have to apply to mikes farm, we had 48 milking cows 12 years ago… we now just build are 2nd freestall barn of 480 cows in each barn putting us just at 1,000 cows.
