Your barns, barnyards and piles are always neat and tidy. I love seeing that. You’re obviously on top of that, I know you must be busy with other things

Sure nice seeing some equipment on your farm that has the right colour green paint! LOL!! 😂 Another awesome video Piet! I love seeing everything is so neat and tidy! That’s the same way I grow up on the farm as well. My Dad was very fussy!! We milked 8 cows by hand and shipped the cream to the local creamery. They would come and pick it up from the farm in this 5-8 gallon metal cream jugs.

Happy Birthday Ian. 🎉 🎂 Nice drone footage, shows how big those fields really are 👍 Hope the new plastic works out for you and glad the company sent you for trial.

Happy Birthday Ian. Hope it's a great day. I was wondering why the pile was in the yard and not in a bunk ? You've got many different piles spread around the farm. You're gonna pile corn silage there later on. Now I get it. it is interesting how in different areas, farms are either doing very well, or are under water from excessive rain in the last couple of weeks. You've got sunny weather and blue skies and good silage right now, that's a good sign.

been a pretty nice growing season so far up in here in Manitoba. I'm not sure exactly where in North Dakota you are but compared to last year it doesn't even same we are living in the same hemisphere. Don't want to jinx it but maybe the drought is finally over for the long term. I know my cattle can't even come close to keeping up to the grazing rotation I need four times the cattle.

It's definitely been a little strange getting rain every 3 or 4 days. That doesn't happen here very consistently, I'm sure it won't stay like this all summer.

Riverview dairy's has announced announced plans to build a twenty five thousand cow Dairy in trail county. Would like to know what you think of that.

I toured one of their 10,000 cow farms a few years ago and thought it looked well run and clean. I don't have any personal experience with them, but 25,000 cows under one roof on one location seems like a lot to me.
