As an Australian sheep farmer, I love everything you show us about cropping in your part of the world. The knowledge you share is a daily treat.

I completely admire how you always follow your statements with, "What works for other people may not work for me and works for me may not work for other people". So true! Every operation is different. We can all learn from each without duplicating the other. Thanks Mike.

U da MAN. Love your job, and know your land and machinery. God bless and stay safe.

Mike the 1050 is really sounds at ease at 1500 RPM. You are a smart farmer my friend and getting things done. At least Ashtyn will have a warm cab in the morning.

Mike, you took the words right out of my mouth with the night thing. We're day creatures. You can call yourself a night owl all you want but us as humans are day time people. Our vision is designed to work in the light, not the dark.

You’re right, but when you run your drill 24/7 it helps to get into a routine. For us it’s usually only 3 weeks or less out of the year.

@@mikeznel6048 we run 24/7 here. That doesn’t mean the drill is seeding 24/7. That means seeding and the things necessary to continue seeding are going 24/7. 6-6 one operator, one trucker. Same for 6-6 nights. The tractor is only shut of long enough after a fill once in a 24 hour cycle to check fluids. Usually less than 15 minutes the engine is off and other things like greasing or fuelling are being done while fluids get a chance to level off for an accurate check. Many other farms do the same and it maximizes the ability to seed much more than that usual 100 acre per foot of drill mark.

Awesome video Mike. I know that sleep deprivation feeling. We had Orchards and greenhouses in Southwestern Ontario. Getting up at 2 in the morning to change irrigation lines in the field. Then heading to the greenhouses to pick tomatoes. Get them to the packing plant by 6:30. Back out in the orchard by 7:30 till the sun went down. Now I am 65 and miss those days so much.

That’s a beautiful sunrise☀️ I love the feeling of working true the night, when everyone else is asleep👍🥱

I am watching you now from north Scotland is actually 23:40 and outside is not yet dark. That is the part of year when night last 2-3hours amazing.

The drill software says only a crazy person would want to start seeding at 1:30AM & thus is hesitant on working 🤣🌑🌑😂

I always enjoy field work at daybreak more than at dusk. thanks for the ride!!

So thoughtful of you to keep tractor warm for your wife. That's the reason u where seeding in the night, so she didn't have to get in a cold tractor right. Happy wife happy life.

Love your energy. I'm like that too. Just don't run into anything at night. The lights of the tractors are awesome, but the problem is between lit spots. Don't trip, safety first. Wishing you half of my 108F Arizona heat!

This is what I've been wanting to see, night farming from inside the tractors.

What a view! Big sky country! Beautiful.

👍👋 thanks Mike& Aston 😊

Good morning Mike ,it may be cold but I don't see very much dust .😊😊.make sure to fill all the tanks for Ashtyn .😉😊😊😁👍👍

Beautiful Sunrise, Surprised how many lights in the distance at night though.

Beautiful sunrise !! Hope you get some rain and some sleep !!!

Man the mornings are beautiful over there, im sure they are here too...too bad i love to sleep in lol

Awesome night video Mike I love the night time running great job man

Im fast forwarding into spring

magic mike cant beat a bit of night work , i remember many years ago like in the 80s was out drilling at 2 in the morning when suddenly all these blue lights turned up to see what the heck was going on , they laughed when saw what was going on , said to them give us a hand to load seed in the drill (cwt bags) then they helped me load ,laughed an off they went !!! just so lovely to see you out there at night & you only have to do it once , could rain for 3 weeks , like here in the UK , regards to you & ash

Hey Mike, thanks for the super cool nightshift! 1050 content always rocks, I like best! 👍 But Mike I got a question: Will the mother of all questions be answered this year? Will the Fendt 1167 be able to pull your 86 foot air drill?

Beautiful tractor thanks for show your job and Share tour knowledge greetings from Colombia

Your awesome too Mike!!! Great vid .

I agree it’s better running hard than running over night. You’re correct our bodies aren’t meant to stay up all night. I worked the over nights for years and people on the night shift tend to get sick more also as our bodies try to get into a normal circadian rhythm. So you’ll have more people calling out sick also.

Yesterday it was turn on a dime with 7 cents change. Today it's 8 cents. Tired mike is an treat.

Wow, really in your own world out there at night

Great lights on the Fendt! You could use a couple inches rain!

Very peaceful episode. Almost put me to sleep,

Sunrise over triples.....B E A utiful!

Great video Mike good luck seeding at night

Man those are some crazy lights on that tractor

YUour working lights, are excellent!

Not the same work as yours but can totally relate to the sleep thing. In my younger days working in commercial/industrial construction. We worked our normal shifts, then traveled to the other side of our state to do a shutdown in a hospital ER. That's when the ER goes on bypass until all work is completed. 4 crews working elbows and shirt tails. 17 hours straight with only 5-10 minute breaks, eating while you work. My adrenaline wore off while driving home. Dosed off 3-4 times while at the wheel, got home and couldn't go to sleep.

Awesome video Mike 😀 amazing sunrice 🌞 watching every video from norway where i live 😀

Nice view 16:40 and 18:35 and 21:38 work all night to watch the sun rise. what a job

Fabulous lights on the Fendt! just awesome. Seems like you could use a headlight for inspecting things like the planter or the grain bins or doing work in the shop. may I suggest a rechargeable headlight from Amazon for about 20 bucks. They use the 18650 batteries that last forever, and when dimming, just recharge for another 12-16 hours of bright light. They're addicting. I have four.

Maybe you can make some ASMR videos too, just the sound of the tractor / seeder and the view of endless fields and nothing else, so peaceful

Love the video

I can relate to you Mike! when you can’t get any sleep and you think to yourself, what do I do now it’s 2 am in the morning, and I can’t get any sleep... hmm... well I still have seeding to do. should I stay or should I go? yeah I’ll go! And the next day you can’t even stand on your feet😂 but that’s how it goes when you can’t sleep and you can’t stop thinking about what you have to do😂😂 Keep it up Mike! You guys are awesome!!🤠👨🏻‍🌾 Btw: please hire me! I love Saskatchewan! 🙂

My longest was 36hrs straight in the oil field running flow back water. I knew if I was on the grey/brown fuzzy and in between the green fuzzies I was on the road

This guy doesn´t only go seeding all night after a full day of work. He even films it for us to watch! Mike, you are a legend! About the innoculant - would it help to coat the walls of the sadlle tank with some cheap bio oil? Oil repels water, which is clearly what makes the stuff stick. Otherwise; buy another broom! Place it next to the saddle tank ;) Problem solved :) Edit: You sure have a beautiful sunrise! There are some perks to the graveyard shift after all ;)

Mike, maybe ask for SpaceLink (from SpaceX); available in your area. 300Mb internet.

This is your very frist 24 hours challenge you stayd up all night nice

feeding the world is hard work. i hope you dont do too many night shifts, canada does need future generations of farmers ;) thanks for feeding the world, and creating future farmers, wink wink.

Hey mike I got a question for you, I have been watching the seeding videos, and I have noticed a few time you have showed the x30 monitor and I noticed you run your drills with the ASC off and drill control off, and your manually lifting drill at headlands. Just curious is to why. Love the content mike keep up the awesome videos.

Miss the Alberta and Saskatchewan sun rises

Ya that tractor has the lights you can play football or in your area hockey

😲🤔😲Was just typing how great the fendt lights are, as you said it yourself.!🤣!. But, they are, aren't they.!😲!. They're brilliant. And, the tractor is a BEAST.!😲🥰!. Are they 'factory' fitted, or have you put them on yourself.? Were there other 'filament' type lights there to start with, that you swapped, or have you fitted them 'extra' to what fendt supplied.? LOVE THE VIDEOS🥰. KEEP 'em COMING🥰🥰. RICH (UK) 🥰🥰🥰.

Lovely

Admit, you secretly snuck out at 1 am just so you could take the Fendt. 😉 Don't worry I won't tell your wife 🤣

Yes we know that you're afraid of mice🐀😉 I just got that June 4th korrasami in Indiana and yes I know you're behind on your videos that's nothing new cuz I know you're busy take you a pipe and put it by the other steps put another broom there and have two brooms that way they won't be inconvenience well looks like the sunrise came up on you you look a little tired take care of Mike God bless🙏🚜

This is huuuge, but not disproportionately so. Actually, Americans would be amazed if they'd experience farming in some parts of Western Europe, where the usage of heavy equipment on miniscule fields is somehow made possible by inflated subsidies and outsourcing. I believe tractors like the Fendt 1050 make sense only overseas and in the east.

Melatonin works well to make u sleepy when ur hyped up from driving

When you're so tired you can't just sleep so you get up and be productive just to go to bed x hours later. But hey, getting the job done is better than nothing.

Whats going on with the land up north? I'm not quite tracking on what the deal is with that. Did you buy that 4x4 JD for your land up there you experimented on last year?

I have a question Mike. Will the Fendt pull with the 4 wheel assist unlocked? We use a curling broom to push down the inoculate. Works pretty good i think.
