    10th Gen, that's one of my favorite things about your channel. You don't NEED clickbait! Everything is interesting as is.

    The overarching theme I've noticed in all your videos, Eric, is efficiency. You make good use of time and all of your resources. Nothing is wasted. Farming has become much more scientific in recent years and you have embraced the technology. For a family farm with limited labor, I'm guessing your yield is way above average. Kudos.

    It's great to see the sense of community there. People helping each other out the way it should be everywhere all the time.

    I am always amazed how these machines work. Blows my mind they can get the corn kernels off the cob.

    Very interesting to watch how bails are made, picked up and stored. Duchess is bred for burrow hunting. Stay safe.

    Loved seeing the JD 4320 at work. What a good looking series of JD tractors. I also used to round bale wet cornstalks for my dry cows and heifers. They always seemed to like the wetter bales more than dry ones. I think it was because the moisture created some fermentation smell and taste. However I did discover some mold issues if I left the wet bales set in our barn too long. So I started leaving them outside and not stacked. Seemed to be less mold issues. Colder temps are your friend with wet cornstalks. I like the looks of your big square bales. It seems like they could be more efficient to handle and store. It is so good to see that you have great neighbors & friends to help. And of course you always have your fearless security dog Dutches by your side. Thanks for all your hard work and time to make great videos!

    I love how you mention if something goes wrong because when you are moving hay or fodder something will go wrong. I have spilt my share of hay off of the wagon and it is not fun to pick it back up by hand. Great video as always and love how your puppy likes to ride in the cart with you. My dog goes everywhere with me on the farm. Have a great week and May God bless you and the farm.

    Didn't know you could bale the stubble from the cornstalks like that and use for bedding or mix in feed, nice sized bales, quick work!

    Hello Eric we depended totally on cornstalks for our bedding we would bale up 480 acres and my son and I would pick up the bales we made 2 flat racks like your neighbors and my son would drive the tractor and I drove the New Holland skidloader and we would bring 30 bales to the yard at a time.

    Good use of the fodder Eric. Seems like farmers are on the cutting edge of recycling. Manure can be used for fertilizer, water can be reused, non patented seeds can be replanted instead of buying new seed and as shown here. You can use fodder from grain be it wheat, rye, barley or corn can be used for feed stretching,bedding or even sold for bio mass.
