Planting soybeans into high biomass cereal rye. Pros and cons
Просмотров 440День назад
Planting cash crops into high biomass cover crops can definitely have its advantages as well as its challenges. We currently don’t let our covers get this big anymore due to some of those challenges. We have plans of working our way back there as it becomes advantageous to do so.
Building update and moving beef cows!

Winter weather has put our building project on hold so we decided to run the cows straight through the construction site. Also, we show how we graze cows towards the end of the year into winter.

Turning cover crops to cash with grazing
If no rain for longer time, rye would suckup all moisture.
I knew a farmer who fell into a fully loaded and running mix box years ago. It was hours before he was found. Let your imagination do the rest.
Do you have a welder lined up for the gates and fencing in the new barn?
Yes we do.
Pretty nifty
Congratulations
Hmm looks familiar 3:10
Electro magnetic clutch on feeder housing
How well does the kp work on one of these? How fast can u go. Im looking into a 5730
If you install the kp correct it wil crush almost every cornel We were able to go 2 kmph With a 6 row head but it is our first time chopping corn this year but I heard some can do 4/5kmph with a 6 row head
And a 5730 has less hp then a 5830 or a 5820
How did it perform after you overhauled it? Anything you would change? I want to overhaul my 750 with the same Needham parts.
Hello. I have a small question about the John Deere 5730. How to set up cutting knives and counter blade
Im Norbert Hemme me Vater it Gunner Hemme
How do you like the Martin 20 point closing wheels? I'm currently rebuilding a 750 with mostly Needham parts. Gauge wheels are so shot I am going with new 3" wheels. Might get by another year on the factory cast closing wheels.
What kind of weeds you have here,vetch ?what would happend if you leave without post herbicide?
Are you saying you get 23 tons of silage per acre?
Yeah, we usually land around that 23 tons per acre as fed
That's been our thing for 20 years now. It turns out pretty as a picture, but if you plant into the standing rye when it's in it's milky stage, then let the beans emerge, then go back and roll / crimp the rye once the rye is in it's doughy stage, you'll have a lot better stand. I'd mix up the covers some also. You may have some issues if their are any legumes in the covers, it can mess with the whole bacteria mix that cause nitrogen fixation in the soil, but I've had a ton of volunteer alfalfa come up and it didn't hurt a thing. It's a tough thing to get started on because all that vibrant soil health / nutrition comes on with a 2-3 year delay. You see, the 2nd year you plant green, let's say you did corn on that ground next year, you would want a crop with some rye, but with a lot of legumes, especially vetch. So you plant in to it, let the cash crop establish up to v1, then roll it. At that point, their is essentially 2 layers of cover crop mat, but not a lot of it has broken down to show any significant improvement in NPK levels. 3rd year is the charm though. Their are a lot of things you can do that are different and that won't hurt your yields, but will reduce your inputs. If you jump to full organic like me, then you'll see a yield drag, but you can get more for what you have. I am not pro organic strangely enough. As a matter of fact, I think that using a lot of these soil health methods, and combining that with very tightly monitored nitrogen application would be the most ecological and moral way to farm because it makes the most out of each production acre, resulting in cheaper product and more of it. Basically, if one were to jump to full organic and not utilize cover crops and still did heavy tillage, they are every bit as much of a menace to the environment as any farmer. But a guy like you who carefully ventured into cover crops and no till / strip till, very light VT, yet still used (about 20% of) chemicals is HUGELY improving the environment. The pesticides and fungicides are real tricky. They pretty much create 90% of the need for themselves, because they kill beneficial's. The more of it you use, the greater the need will be for it in the future. I don't use any, I have more pest pressure than my conventional friends, but if they didn't use pesticides, they couldn't even get a crop at all. So who is right? Thank you for the video friend, since you went through all that trouble, I thought I'd take the time to comment.
Thanks for the advise, it really takes a different skill level to be successful with covers. I get a little better every year
Can this be use to mulch thyme plants to prevent weeds?
Should work just as well
I’d love to know how to do this in a garden, I went a whole year no till, and just gave in the other day because winter rye and clover just kept coming back after weed whacking several times so I broke out the tiller 😩
Did you sown the beans after rolling rye
Now we roll as we plant with the rollers attached to the front of the planter
What was the result of the cost-per-bushel test?
Zero N made 140. 150 applied N made 180.
Did it work well crimping? I'm looking to try crimping on a few acres. I dont know if its worth buying a whole roller-crimper for just a test plot
It worked very well. Great weed suppression
@@hemmebrotherscreamery thats great! How many pounds of seed per acre did you spread/drill? And did you have any un wanted grass come back to life? Or did it have enough breaks in the stem with the stalk devastators?
30 lbs in our high fertility ground seeded before October 15. Could be higher with a later planting date or lower fertility. The devastator’s did a fantastic job once the rye was dropping pollen. It would kill it at that point. I was also spraying out the back of the planter for the spots that weren’t at that stage.
Will you be planting rye again in fall or what will you do for next winter cover crop?
Needham said once 3-400 per row to overhaul. Wondering if those figures are in line or not? Looking at a 750 myself for the same reasons you purchased 1
Heath Mumm I’ll have close to $500 a row unit on this one. But it’s a very extensive overhaul. Every pin, bushing, bearing, and tire. It will literally be a new drill
Hi I want to buy one of this machine. I want your advice, sir. Are the spare parts expensive for this machine and are it resistant to work? Thank you
Issa Issa You can still get a lot of wear parts through deere or aftermarket. However more and more of these parts are becoming obsolete and will have to be found through a salvage yards. It can get very expensive.
Thank you for the information, it's seems we are going thru the same issue!! We have a 9600 John Deere combine. The issue is that it is chopping, however it seem like it loses its revoultion!! So we definitely try this tommorow!! Thank greetings from Mexico
Good morning. To prevent the rye rising after rolling, which phenological phase you have identified to roll it? thank you.
Andrea Pietrobelli it has to be dropping pollen.
@@hemmebrotherscreamery Thanks. I am experimenting with these solutions in Italy for my company.
@Hemme Brothers Access how did this trial turn out?
Cost us 30 bu of corn. Weeds wound up taking over the cover
@@hemmebrotherscreamery oh yikes. All apart of the process of learning, though! Do you plan on continuing to do some trials?
Can you tell more about that cover crop mix, how much, ratio, drilling date...
P8.5 20 cereal rye, 2 rape, 1 fixation clover, 1 crimson clover, 6 hairy vetch, drilled august 25
Looking forward to seeing harvest. Looks good! I wonder how 60’s would do.
Vetch is kind of wierd. It looks like a huge competitor but when you pull it back the corn looks nice. I would like to try a banded herbicide to leave the cover crop alive.
I’ve been thinking the same thing. I like how the vetch pulls everything down at planting
Nice!!
Row sensors would really be a nice addition to your chopper....nice video! Keep up the great work.
it is possible to have dry rye without glyphosate? I want to use rye cover in my organic farm.
You can kill it with a roller crimper once it pollinates
@@hemmebrotherscreamery I wonder about snap beans with rye cover crop. Do you think it will run ok?
Not sure, I don’t have any experience with snap beans. I wouldn’t think it would be an issue. To me it’s very important to get the cover crop flat on the ground to avoid any other issues at harvest.
How did they yield?

@@hemmebrotherscreamery thanku sir giving me info..
Do you graze your milking cows in ireland we do we averaged 13500 lbs milk per cow last year with about 2200 lbs of dairy pellets fed and we about 8800 pounds of grass grazed
James O Brien we used to be a grazing dairy. We had a hard time keeping a productive stand of grass due to our very deep heavy soil‘s. Probably due to our cow size getting bigger over the years. The cows are now housed in a compost bedded pack barn to where we can control the environment. We would like to go back to grazing, but the infrastructure is already there now. So we’re now looking for other ways to integrate livestock on the land, starting with replacement heifers
I really enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Jeff Williams thanks, I wish I had more time to make more of them
I have green pots n grain tank wuz going on
On 9500 John Deere combine
very amazing this year what a difference the rye and 1 pass herbicide did vs several passes of chemical!! nice job!!
nice work man
Hello distant cousin; Carl Roscher's daughter. Thanks for making the quark cheese
Date of rye driling?
P8.5 It was planted mid September behind the combine. I used the same planter as I planted the beans with on15 inch rows
Good idea. Can't wait to see the results
Do you have a video harwesting that?
P8.5 I did not get a video harvesting it. But it cut just fine. No real yield difference. The big savings was in one less liberty application
Interesting to see how it'll work out always nice to get grazing how are dairy market where your at
James O Brien milk prices here are slowly recovering. Looking at 19.50 this month. Fortunately we’re moving more and more through our creamery
There is a lot of interest in the 30-60 spacing. Looking forward to seeing every ones results
pretty cool! the white is fungi hiphy !! good sign. I am going to try a bio stripping this fall for that reason you show there! better soil condition then any iron could ever make the soil!!
good points. coming from old school high labor feed system to grazing covers is crazy! so much money in grazing covers people don't understand. its way more then feed savings, look at nutrients per lb then how much less lbs you need. also the soil benefits and how much less fertility inputs you need. cover mixes also do better in extreme weather situations. look at acres per head vs grass pastures. less acres needed for feed mean more acres for cash or reserve feed.
New here. Excellent video and very informative. Look forward to checking more out.
good looking setup!
Jon Stevens Maple Grove Farms it’s low budget but functional
looks really good! how did it turn out? in ND they leave it tall because they don't want the ground cover.
Jon Stevens Maple Grove Farms They turned out fine. Not much difference in yield.The real savings was one less liberty application. It really kept the field clean
I'm hoping to be almost organic honestly being filled this year. Go into Rye might have to just do a little burn down so the ride doesn't take all my moisture and go to grain. Behind the burn down try a strip or two of some annual clovers to see if they can hold weeds back for the year. And then in other soybean fields I would go in with winter wheat
Jon Stevens Maple Grove Farms I have the same goals. No till organic soy beans is what I’m shooting for long-term. I know there’s a lot to learn yet. Just got back my grid samples. I have raised organic matter A half of a percent on some fields in 5 years, only using cover crop every other year in a corn bean rotation.
