Farmers motto right there

I agree Dave. Thanks man!

We sure like it !!

Amen!

Thanks! Everyone loves a good fire!

You won’t be disappointed 😂

I’d have to figure the cubic feet of space but I’m guessing that would be quite expensive

Thanks!

Good morning!

It’s always either too dry or too wet. We actually aren’t really even that wet right now. It’s just raining a little bit every day

Thanks Ronnie!

We are still not really wet, just getting a tenth or less every day but just enough to keep the sprayer out of the field

Thanks Jack 👍

👍

If I had a lot of them to do I certainly would be doing that!

She’s a good one!!

😂😂 thanks

The three sections move independently but each roller is solid

Thanks

That’s my thought!

Newer drones have the ability to follow a subject. Like a person walking, skiing or in this case a tractor. I suspect he gets the drone in the air targets tractor to follow then does a few rows and uses the some of the better shots.

Michael is correct. My drone has auto track which I use a lot. Sometimes I’ll do some manual maneuvers if I’m in a big wide open spot with nothing else to worry about.

@@dodgebrothersfarmandranch9206 Okay, cool! Drone tech has really advanced.

Me either

That would be a lot of foam! Would it still soak up water?

Yeah there might be a real supply issue this year and next

I really don’t actually know how heavy the rollers are. They don’t change the seed depth, just flattening out the ground and eliminating any potential air pockets underneath as well as pushing down any rocks.

👍

We have never tried that. It seems we are always busy with other field operations at that point .

We are firming the soil over the soybeans to make sure that any air pockets are eliminated. Also, it pushes small rocks back down flush with the surface of the soil so that we don't injure the cutterbar on the bean head during harvest. Lastly, by smoothing out the surface of the ground we can cut down just a little lower on the bean plants in the fall and capture one or two more pods per plant.

@@dodgebrothersfarmandranch9206 oh ok i got ya thanks

Or pliers 😂

I don’t know if it would work or not but I bet it would be pretty expensive 🤔

Real-Time Kinematic is just a fancy term for a gps system that not only uses satellites, but also uses at least one base station at a known location to constantly correct the small errors in tour tractor’s gps location so that you can have pinpoint accuracy no matter how long it’s been since you’ve used that tractor in that field. We use it mostly for shutting off the planter as it goes through waterways that we have previously mapped out. Also great for auto steering along fences that were previously recorded.

Yes sorry I should have explained better! The beans are already planted and this roller is just firming the soils down and making sure there are no air pockets left in the furrow and pushing down any little rocks that might be sticking up. It also levels the little humps out so that the combine can cut the beans all the way down to the bottom of the plant. I may have explained it a little better last year. This is the rolling video from last year: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y9eHd5Vn35bcZGQ.html This is the video when we harvested the trial field: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbV3oNqVy6nTj4U.html

Basically differential GPS, where the satellite signals are corrected to a known location on the ground. For more information see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_kinematic_positioning.

It's a floating fence to keep the cows from walking down the creek and escaping.

@@moyockmoo2 oh cool. Would have never thought that.

Yep! So far they have worked very well.

Thanks man 😂

Never seen one

@@dodgebrothersfarmandranch9206 A light weight one: www.firesupplydepot.com/heavy-duty-plastic-bung-wrench.html?cmp=bingshopping&kw=heavy-duty-plastic-bung-wrench They make them in metal also with corresponding price increase.

Thanks for the tip 😂
