Deere: “Give us $600,000 for a machine and we will lease you a screen and globe” AGCO: “Hey that tractor you bought 20 years ago, you wanna make that sucker showroom clean again and run it for 20 more years?”
The ears on the right were treated with Pivot bio, BW fusion, fungicide and foliar fed twice and had 6.9 gal of Komodo dragon urine applied @ R1. The ears on the left just got the standard groceries
(Just kidding it’s all from 20ft apart in the same row of kern)
Bought this bean planter from Titan machinery last summer. Fired it up and the yetter compressor was junk. Called yetter, guy told me the exact part numbers we needed. Called Titan, they shipped all the parts right to our door for free. Awesome service
My amateur agronomy observations today. 160ac field all fall stripped with a

Raptor 6” deep. Spring field cultivated 100/160ac to compare. Planted to P0507am
75% of my friends affiliate themselves with a different political party than I do. They’d help me with pretty much anything. If you focus on the people you know I think you’ll find it a lot harder to hate a D/R. Let’s all choose this country over politicians.
Flying on some approach prima for a
@corteva
fungicide timing trial. Good thing we’ve got the drone or we’d be chasing a Hagie around with a tow rope 💦
Compared to the excitement of getting out of the cab every 15 minutes to figure out why our strip till bar isn’t working this is like watching paint dry
This arbonne Instagram pyramid scheme is quite the deal.... half the girls I went to high school with are gonna be driving Mercedes-benz sedans by the time we get home for Christmas break
@jasonmauck1
Have a quite a few customers seeding cover crop mixes in to both beans and corn. Anything from an 8lbs mix of brassicas, 15lbs of an overwintering mix to 50lbs of rye. 50lbs rye 12ac/hr. 15lbs mix 30ac/hr. I’ll post some pics after harvest
I’m excited to announce I’ve been selected as the
@CLAAS_America
CCO (Chief Combine Officer). I don’t have to make any cringe videos with 11 year olds, I just have to keep the 8600 full of crop so the neighbors 790 looks like a toy. Easy job
@Miller_time150
Can’t wait to be driving back from the bar seeing my autonomous combine harvesting beans with a broken sickle section and a missing straw spreader

@PioneerSeeds
in. First year planting into strip tilled ground. Seed bed is slightly rougher than when we would fall chisel NH3 and spring cultivate but otherwise awesome
I’ve heard swingers put a pineapple on their door on cruises. I always wear a seed/equipment brand hat on vacation so people know I’m down to talk about farming
Dad and I exited the dairy industry in 22’. Could lose money/breakeven working 4,000 hours a year with cows or we could lose money/breakeven working 1/4 of the time and not smell like cow shit… hmmmm

As I look into the mirror buttoning up my best pearl snap shirt and sipping my 2nd cup of coffee of the day while listening to classic country radio I realize that I am in fact a 80 year old man.
One of the best things to ever happen to me was not getting into the University of Minnesota. Mainly because of the great friends I made at UWRF. But also because my happiness is not tied to gopher athletics whatsoever
I was completely decided on who I was voting for but a high school classmate of mine shared a video with some random person talking about why I shouldn’t vote for that guy and I’ve completely changed my mind. Whew that was a close call.
Lots of people are rightfully upset about all of the extra spending in this stimulus bill. Imagine how pissed we would get if we fully read every bill Congress passes 👀
Does that shirt say “Glen Taylor Roasts Animals Alive” ? 😂😂😂 awesome. I’m all for the Glen slander but if she’s protesting for animal rights by sticking herself to the court with a substance that’s made out of horse it seems counter productive
Cow grain????? What do you want us to feed them dummy? Paper scraps? I’d guess most people don’t know there is actually a science behind what farmers feed their cattle and it is done with efficiency in mind.
Ocasio-Cortez doubles down on the threat that earth is facing from cow farts: “We need to innovate and change our, our grain, uh, our, our cow grain from which you know they feed in these troughs. We need to look at regenerative agriculture. These are our solutions”
I might keep wearing a mask in the grocery store after the corona virus is over. Walked right by someone I went to high school with and they didn’t even recognize me.
To the people announcing they’re “done” with pro sports because pro athletes are using their platform that they’ve earned through hard work etc to try and make a positive impact in communities... don’t let the door hit you in the ass on your way out
@MattHintz3
Had 2 internships at co-ops in college and worked for a 900 cow dairy 1st year out of college before going home. If I’m lucky enough to have kids interested they’ll have to work at a farm that has livestock before they come home, just so they know how cake grain farming is
“In 1814 we took a little trip. Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'. We took a little bacon and we took a little beans. And we caught the bloody British in the town of New Orleans”
I think it’d be cool if there was an app that tracked where exactly our tax $ went. Like maybe I payed for new desks in a school last year, or a new section of a road, or a wheel on a fighter jet used to bomb some 3rd world country.... you know what never mind...
Do I workout? No. But sometimes I do things like forget to shut off the roller mill and have to shovel 8,000lbs of corn off the ground. So that’s gotta count for something.
@graincartguy
Dad keeps a big container of trail mix in the combine. When I run the combine I eat all of the M&M’s out of it and leave the nuts and raisins.

Selling our 2090 Case asking $7500. 14 year old kid messages me wants to trade his clapped out 4 wheeler and race mower straight up($1,500 value). We need to shut this tik tok or whatever is rotting these kids brains down immediately.
Coaches always told us someday we’d miss being able to play ball. Idk man we picked over 200 acres of corn yesterday that was a hell of a lot more fun then anything that’s ever happened to me on a basketball court.
#haventpeakedyet
Mostly done with harvest doing some rain day yield analysis. Our corn that was planted on 4/14 beats the farm avg by 20 bushel. Doesn’t pay to be a 🐓💩 in the spring

If you're an operator, you're likely not surprised. This was done in a post-emerge pass + shows the heart rate was elevated while spraying. While on the road, the operator calmed down. The stress is real.
The justice system has failed to be fair to an entire race for decades. Our governor and mayors have failed to protect communities from riots and our president resorts to name calling and pandering to his base. How in the hell do we fix this level of dysfunction?
People are worried about being microchipped while we all carry around devices in our pockets that track our location, what we buy and where we are at all times... if they wanted to know they already do. 🤷🏻♂️
