Oh good stuff! A lot of farmer engineering went on on our farm. Much enjoyed.
Mitch, I'm enjoying your videos a lot! I follow many farm operations around the country but you are the only Palouse area farmer making videos that I am aware of. It would be way cool if you could share your harvesting experience too. I have a special interest in your area because I know most of your neighbors who are my former science students back when Gar-Pal was just GHS. Keep making videos, you are educating a lot of non-farmers who may never have heard of the "Palouse Country".
Your terrain brings to mind the old quote " so steep you could upset a 4 section drag"!!
What no g p s
Did you give up? @trevorstruthers is doing it still.
lol. driving around a 4 wheeler while hoeing weeds will get me looking like that as well.
Weight equals traction. This is the Caterpillar rule since day one.
Oh yeah!!!!! Theres a dudes where i live(walla walla) who pulls a disk and cultivator on the crazy hills out here
Steep hills? Gently rolling at most.
Burning all that oil isn’t cheap, notill would pay the 1st year, better crops, conserve moisture, better soil tilth, you gotta get there
Hope it's okay we used a short clip from this video in our new music video! (Gave you credit at the end)
Excellent vid, many thanks
This is the 2nd time I have watched this video, it's still as good as the first time, thanks
Here in Italy we are still useing this tractor. We also have D6d special application custom product. 270 hp. Magnifecent machine. 👍
Mate, you have some create and video skills! for a channel with as few video as yours to have 1.66 k subs you are a star! well done
Great Video I love the Challenger Tractors, and the Palouse! new sub here i can see you have a great channel well done!
sick intro
Why are you breathing so heavy at the start of the video?
Great job! Keep on pumping vids out!
What part of the Palouse are you from because I have family from endicott wa so I know that area pretty well
Hi Carter! We live just outside of Garfield, WA so east of Endicott.
Is that a Melroe/Gysler chisel plow?
I won't confuse you guys with the Larson farms videos I watch. But that's OK !
Glad your back
this is my favorite channel
👍back in the 60’s or 70’s I run a rod welder a huge 15’er . Thanks for the post from a wheat farmer in north central Kansas 😀
Good to see another video, keep em coming! Greetings from Victoria Australia!
and greetings from South Australia
So fun having people from all over tuning in. Thanks for watching!
Nice! Longer videos needed
Never seen a weed resistant to steel. Since I sell a lot of tillage equipment I like that saying
What is the story on the pull type harvester in the background nice video
Its a Case V2. My Great grandfather started farming with one and my grandpa remembers being the tractor driver when he was a kid. My dad and I have been working on restoring it in our free time. Its a fun project for me.
We ran a JD 36 in the late 80’S pulled with D6b Cat one of the owners of Harris Harvestor was from our town south of Stockton Ca
What advice do you have for a college student that wants to get into farming but doesn't have property or equiptment?
Hi Ethan, I'm glad to hear you have interest in getting into farming. I'm not naïve to the fact that I'm extremely lucky to have been given the opportunity to farm, with that said its not impossible if you don't have a family farm. My best advice is to get connected! Lots of farmers are looking for help right now, I'd recommend working for a farmer and learn as much as you can. Make it known that you want to farm on your own someday, they might know a farmer who is looking for someone to take over. Just need a foot in the door. Best of luck to you! Thanks for watching!
Way to show the missing siding on our house 😂
Great to have you back on youtube I had wondered if you were ok. being busy is understandable, everyone gets snowed under. Thanks for a look at the crops, showing us the good and bad.
Thanks David! Good to be back
@@PNWHillsideFarmer Welcome I am Algerian origin I have 12 years experience in the field of agricultural machinery Especially the harvesting machine Is there a job opportunity or a work contract in any Canadian company? Thank you
I live in Vancouver WA (just across the river from Portland OR) but my driving job takes me to Arlington OR twice a day. I see 1,000s of acres of Wheat daily.
👍
Hello, I am a retired farmer from France. 50-60 years ago we were growing lentils. Today that has disappeared, we import everything from Canada, only a few contracts with cantonal appellation like the verte du Puy country of Clermont ferrand). We need flat fields, in the hills it is difficult because of the large width of the cut. Which active ingredient in your weed killer has caused toxicity? I had this kind of case 40 years ago with diuron, after very heavy rains. Now this product does not exist anymore in France.
Hello fro Utah.
Good to see you back
Mitch, this is your cousin, several times removed (could never figure that genealogy stuff out). Your dad said that I should check out your channel, and I'm glad I did; I just watched every episode and am looking forward to more. It brings back lots of memories because, as a young teenager in the mid-sixties, I spent about a month every summer on your farm, living with your great grandfather & great grandmother, trying to absorb everything I could about farming. I was probably more underfoot than of any real help, but it sure taught me a lot about work, character, and about one's relationship with the earth; it's something I'll remember all my life and definitely contributed to who I am. Because I was only there at the beginning of each summer, I didn't get to experience what happened throughout the rest of the year, so your episodes are filling in the gaps...fascinating stuff. Better yet, you're showing the nitty gritty of what's involved, rather than superficial fluff. I remember coming in at the end of the day and not recognizing myself in the mirror from all the dust, so keep letting us be a fly on your wall! I applaud you for carrying on the family tradition and for your genuine interest in what you're doing; hopefully, it'll be a source of inspiration. I'm pretty sure that I saw your dad drop by during an episode, and it'd be great to see you introduce the family from time to time, including your new bride, to show how you all work together to make things happen. I'm guessing that you're busy in the fields, so will wait patiently for your next installments. Until then, good luck with the weather! P.S. You ought to include an episode about your great grandfather's technique for tricking gullible teenagers (like me) into climbing Steptoe Butte at midnight to catch snipe with a flashlight & gunnysack!
Thanks for watching! Its fun to hear stories like that! You're always welcome back on the farm.
We have like six or seven maybe eight but we have it old D5 bulldozer that’s like the only thing we use now but we fire them up every year and taking care of them
This is so cool. Been away for some years, living now in MO, and saw this channel, and the name!!! My dad used to drive truck for Hollis years back. I grew up farming for Cochran's. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Very cool! Always fun to hear about the connections people have to our farm or the area. Its a small world for sure!
Have always been fascinated with the Palouse region farming would like to see the wheat harvest with the side hill combines . I’m a farmer from north central Kansas.
Hoping to get around to editing some harvest footage very soon! Thanks for watching!
Springer Spaniel?
Yep! His name is Olle - he has a pretty good life on the farm.
Enjoyed the video - good job. I'm a retired guy that farmed in the Willamette Valley of Oregon - multiplied varieties of grass seed, wheat, and clover.
My new favorite channel
Thanks man! Glad you're enjoying it.
Great job on cultivator btw
Your harvest vids are gonna be great! Can't wait!!
Got a little behind on editing and putting videos out, but hope to have some harvest videos edited and posted very soon!
@@PNWHillsideFarmer I think your content is great personally. I’m from south central Indiana and I’m deeply fascinated by Palouse farming. As far as I can tell, you’re the first Palouse farmer trying to really start a channel and I’m excited to see where this goes. Keep it up!
@@nellsonstout7001 Thanks Man!
How about a mask?
Shame all the footage of the tractor running was sped up. I also grew up on a farm and those old girls beat to a different drum. The sounds of working ground, the smells of freshly tilled earth, diesel and diesel fumes as well as all the mechanical noises it a part of the whole theatre. just a few minutes would have provided me a fix. Next time.
Should cab that old cat.Only time we see those are on drainage work or pulling a mole plough.Very rare to see but ag contractor near me uses D6 for drainage work.
Great video! Beautiful country. Lot different from where I farm on the Oklahoma plains.
