DUST BOWL COMING!

[Music] good morning welcome back to good old southern ia it is tuesday wednesday tuesday thursday tuesday dude no yes was yesterday tuesday wednesday thursday it's thursday how is it thursday already they shouldn't say tuesday it's thursday already we're up and rolling pretty good and early this morning here i could be early to work but that seems like it's a waste of time let's uh go look at some crops and be late for work instead the oats are coming up um i think they look okay i mean yeah my drainage systems did the surface drainage on that looks like it's working that's cool my gosh how could i forget i i got to jump way back forward in the video again here if you guys don't know you're tuned into the iowan farmer youtube channel right now we're in the spring season which means that we are planting and what you guys are going to see is as i start planting soybeans and if you guys haven't yet already known that molly's been editing all the youtube videos to bring you guys that consistent content all she asks is you hit the thumbs up button and if you don't she'll bring some chalk over to your house and screeching on a chalkboard nobody wants that if you've been here a while you guys know that i did one field of cover crops last year i did two fields cover crops one of them was oats this one's cereal rye this is my first field of actual production cereal right not production cereal right production crops that actually have cereal rye on and i've grown cereal right in my fun plot planted into it last year and that was pretty darn cool there's what my standard cereal ride looks like it was broadcast it i mean sure cool i guess maybe it's got some winter stuff in it and weeds and just gonna no-till the soybeans right into this and uh either let it grow for a little bit depending on if we get a rain or just turn around and maybe even terminate it right before i plant it and then they'll be dead i don't know we're gonna play that one by ear let's go look at some corn real quick to be clear though that cereal ride not really something i'm looking too heavily to get into i mean maybe a few acres every single year or something like that but i can see that being a mess i mean imagine if it was really wet and we could get in the fields and you got 18 foot tall cereal rye on a thousand acres that you want to put into soybeans or something like that holy cow go out there and you destroy your actual cash crop to grow a cover crop that don't make sense to me but a few acres every year especially on more erosion prone ground that doesn't sound like that bad of a deal it's coming up pretty nice pretty even i wish it had a little bit better color on it honestly hey did you just eat my corn did you just eat my corn a little bit of sunlight and that might change but you can row it this is the first field of like normal planting corn that we did in this area so it's up so the plan today is to treat some soybeans at least enough for me to get slavery today and i'm going to go hobble the bean planter together put in some upgrades and then we're going to push hard on it until it rains i i do so treating seed is mundane and boring and really repetitive and over and over and over which is why we're skipping forward to later in the day and even though we're skipping forward to later in the day we're gonna skip forward tomorrow because later in the day in this video i'm gonna go fix up all the rest of the planner which is all its own separate video and we're gonna change the engine oil so we'll see you guys tomorrow when we should start planting beans good morning gotta finish my breakfast sandwich we just actually finished the video of doing some precision planter solutions arms on this planter we still got more to put on we've only got one chance of having beans today hey hey hey hey hey the good news is i found the peanut butter it was in the wrong cupboard molly was on vacation there and so i went to get the uh we got peanut butter i went to get wayne groceries and so i like we need some i need some things i'm like i'm out peanut butter right he gets creamy peanut butter and i like crunchy peanut butter she gets back she goes what kind of psychopath gets crunchy peanut butter i can't bought it we get going we got to do some upgrades and a few more repairs to this planer so this year i'm upgrading monitors in the bean planting tractor still the bean planter won't be monitored by the incoming 1200 but we're going to make 1200 i guess you could say from an integra so we're going to be running a nicer monitor but the big upgrade is going to be coming is that we're going to be running something called terrastar x subscription source and terra star x specifically is an rtk subscription that you don't need a base station for but to do that we've got to scavenge the equipment out of the 535 quad track so we can get into the beam planner so we can get the correction we're going to be using the ag leader 7500 receiver up there and then we just decided to put the incommand 1200 in here it's a little nicer monitor and of course we're running an on track three in here as well planters all buttoned up and put back together i wish we could have gotten some more precision planter solutions arms put on there but we're gonna try and get some planting done we'll get the planter back in here let's fold this thing up and head down the road and see if we can get some beans planted [Applause] we're gonna go give her the college try you got a flat beans we're gonna try dome you need about a couple of like 20 year old women to show up with palm leaves and fannia instead of air conditioning planting we got to set up a deal here not in here yet dd 110. gotta answer all this stuff but gotta wait until dylan gets done fueling me up [Applause] i really thought these boxes were empty [Music] you snoozing okay now everything's set up here we've got our rtk we've got our terra star there oh it's terrastar x because if i go to my settings uh and i go to my receiver 7 500 i've got tear star x put in there i had an a b line from when we seeded this spot right here if i had that saved i would have been able to just nudge myself over and running right along that but i don't have that so that's what we're gonna do we're gonna go directly south or north which we're just putting in zero i sting and i think i'm ready to say get you giggity let's play some dang soybeans quick overview of what's in the cab we got the on track three it's going across this chisel plowed ground that was this way so it's really working pretty hard they're not normally this loud it's just the way that it's mounted on my steering wheel it's actually the column making that noise it's not the on track 3 itself thank you man 1200 is our monitor steering everything like that we've got a foot engage remote down on the ground that's the ecu we're still playing or controlling or monitoring the planter with the kpm2 this is the full box one day i will get this to be on this when i work on this until then we rock and roll this way the blue dog is into the position let's get some acres in [Applause] [Music] she's putting beans in and you know what all you other farmers and farm hands that are out there watching if you've already started planting your beans well i guess this doesn't apply to you but if you haven't started planting beans yet i have something for you on your first day wear some bibs ben did it i did it scott did it andrew he's just he's not in it i guess [Music] [Applause] [Music] i got a broken closing wheel spring not a big deal oh okay just pick it up right there yep put that down all right this has two holes in it yeah that top hole there has to go onto that hook you can come down through and you just put that hook on there and then you have to put that bolt in so you go like that that survey says in sandwich well i know i got a ham and chicken salad in there but one of the two survey was wrong it was uh the chicken salad sandwich look at you being all attended multitasking planting and trimming trees at the same time i got some uh dollar and thirty two cent corn i gotta run over here planted straight to beans leo might not be so good on this stock look at that stand ability hybrid stand all season long and the next we finished up with the first field of the year that was tilt the start difference now i'm in my first field of cover crop we're to plant it supposed to get back like 300 feet to do get this sucker in here so i'd be way more nervous about not having the cereal right terminated at this point especially as dry as we were but we're supposed to catch a good bit of rain on saturday and sunday which is tomorrow and the next day obviously because sunday comes after saturday talking i know and if we get that rain we'll get it growing here again maybe the cereal rye jumped back off give me a little more cover i did like in my fun plot last year how much moisture the cereal rye actually kept in the dirt when we got hot and dry so if this will kick off and grow it's like i might let it go for another week or so before i actually terminate it if it don't get a bunch of rain it's going to get smoked fast this is cereal rye not him for you funny mommies out there when i say smoked i mean killed roundup so for the most part i would say that this is probably about a foot high this was seated with potash basically a floater it was seeded with a floater earlier this spring when i was harvesting my bonus corn i guess i called it i made a video about it i kind of poked fun at how it basically looked like there was nothing growing out here that was two months ago now we have this yeah they're in there about an inch or so man that's hard that is hard hard dirt this field right here has been continuous no-till for seven or eight years we'll just have to see what happens so as i finish up these headlands here let's talk real quick about terrastar and i'm going to be giving a more in-depth review and more of a comparing contrast in between a base station rtk system and the subscription system but what we're going to be using is the terrastar x which is sub-inch accuracy repeatable within one minute so you get into your tractor you fire up your receiver you've got rtk and for me what's going to be really darn beneficial for rtk correction is that i don't have to carry my base station around from place to place to place the place i just drive this tractor wherever i want to go and i've got rtk correction that i'm really going to like we'll dive more into that in coming videos but i do want to get you guys some information as soon as possible because terrastar is actually doing a five-day free trial that you can get from your local dealers but there's a couple of things that you need to have like a gps globe that can actually receive the service so if you're interested in trying out rtk and you have a globe get ahold of your local dealer or heck even send me an email and i can get you set up so [Music] well guys that's gonna do it for today's video we're going to keep pushing into the night tonight because uh it's supposed to rain don't know how long we're going to go but i'm going to leave you guys off here say thanks for hanging out with us like always don't forget to hit the thumbs up button on the way out and we'll see you the next time nice shadow i don't know if the camera picks it up how smooth this is but it's smooth look i could take a nap right here oh well i got other stuff to do but anyway you get the idea
