All kinds of good stuff in this video as we start side dressing corn with the John Deere 2950 tractor and Case IH applicator.

    Mike, I appreciate the time you put into your videos. I farm by myself, without anyone to talk to.... Watching a nice guy like you is very uplifting! Thanks again

    A Millennial would freak out because they do not have GPS guidance to steer for them while side-dressing the corn! Growing up, my "GPS Guidance System" was a tree at the other end of the field. It may have been at a slight angle, but at least the rows were straight!

    Corn looks nice , it'll sure like that N when the roots get there! My old man always said put the hood ornament between the rows and don't look back. Day or two of the great outdoors is nice but you'll be ready for the cab back pretty quick! 28% sure is a greasey , corrosive product, probably safer than ammonia but still a pain to handle!! Thanks for the video!

    Great video. My family is about ready to send me off to the orphanage because of the time our TV at home spends on these farming videos. If they only knew how bad I want to do this, they would find me a farm to work on. I would just about pay someone to let me come work in their fields a day or two to get some tractor time in.

    That 29 is a sweet running machine. Not a lot of power but drives good and runs out good. I always enjoyed side dressing corn and cotton with liquid rigs. Have used gas but hate the stuff. Kinda dangerous. I was overcome once when the regulator malfunctioned and wouldn't shut off. Got some scorched lungs out of it. Darn fine looking crop and cows.

    I side dread some corn last week for the farmer I work for and going to try and do more tomorrow hear in central Minnesota. I have a question when that one pease sheared off how did you stop the fertilizer from comeing out did you just shout the pump of or something else?

Like I say you can drive anywhere and the fields are bare. A few tile Fields we're planted and that's it.
