Retired North Central IN, corn, soybeans, some wheat and hogs... KZread sure has opened up how diverse farming is in the US, good luck and stay safe...

Yeah don't miss a beet! No pun intended. Hah

I use a headlight at the last two manufacturing jobs I've had, battery died on a cheap one, I bought a Hart one, and it's rechargeable, and lasts all day on a charge. Thank you for the long hours of work you do to help people have sugar! Nice drone footage, nice video, have a good week!

I just finished driving trucks for my first beet harvest, and I had a blast. I was delivering to the East Grand Forks factory and it was definitely something I’ll never forget!

I really enjoy your drone footage! Thanks and be safe!

Keep that man happy Jennie!! Koop to see you all rolling along keep Up the good work. Thank Mitch

Hey Todd! It was great to meet you and Nancy as well!

Back in the 60's I helped my uncle Benny & his dad farm , some sugar beets , workers had to dig them up , then cut the tops off , I did finally find me the sugar beet knife ! Also the sugar beet truck with folding sides amazing & hard work ! I still have memories of the farming !

Great video. Thanks and take care.

good morning friends, nice to know your channel, your videos are very interesting, ok happy weekend bro

👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂🙂

That’s a awesome video, thanks!

Hello!!! Another great video. I'm curious how you keep up with the "names" of all the different fields. How do you know which beet, wheat, pinto, etc.... field to go to? Keep up the great work!!

Ever thought about a self propelled Harvester (Ropa, Holmer, Grimme etc.)? You barley see pulled havester here in Europe anymore. Greetings from Austria

Thanks for the video. A guy can go through a lot if he has a good wife.

I did my 2nd year of beets this year. Took mine to Crookston.

Eleven years to Crookston for us.👍

You think running 2 12 row harvesters is slow, try a 1 row! That's what I first worked with.

I can only imagine! It was 4 row sized when my dad started beets. 4 row topper on our open cab 1650 Oliver and a 4 row lifter with no tank.

Back in the old days it was easy to determine how many trucks each farmer could use because they were pretty much the same size. Does AC still tell farmers how may trucks they may use or do they tell the farmers how many total tons they trucks may hold and then lets the farmer decide on how many and the types of trucks to use?

There is a truck haul team that decides based on acres and shift hours. They tell the farmers how many trucks they can run.

@@beetfarminmitch Thank you for responding. Is it the number of trucks or the number of tons that can be decided by how many trucks the farmer wants to use? I was wondering if a dual-axel truck counts the same as a triple axel-semi-trailer?

Question for sugar beet farmers.....are you required to buy/own/lease one share of beet stock to grow one acre of beets? Or...? TIA

Where is this video taken at what town

I know your in the thick of harvest but what have you been reading in the Bible lately? I miss your your quick “tractor devotionals” hope all goes well for you this year.

This comment made my day and thank you!!! I try to share my faith in Christ often but not overdo it haha. He is my all In all though. Anyway, I’ve been going through a “Chronological Bible in a Year Plan” with my home church. Today was Luke 14 and 15. Luke 15 with the Prodigal son always gets me!

The prodigal son always gets me also. I’ve been reading Isaiah lately. Just got done with ch 38. Hezekiah has a fatal illness and pleads to God for help. God in turn heals Hezekiah and adds 15 yrs to his life…it’s amazing what can happen when we turn our attention to God!

Where did you get that beenie??? ACS doesn’t have that on their website :(
