Добавлен 9 ноя 2011
Photographer and drone enthusiast focusing on nature, rural farmland, rivers and lakes. Dairy farming was in the family for 3 generations. My cousin on my mothers side still runs a farm. Although I missed the opportunity to have a life on the farm, it still attracts me like a magnet in my senior years even more than it did visiting the farm as a child.
I have a lot of respect for farmers. The risks they take and the equipment investments they make would would shatter the nerves of any city folk. I like to fly their farms and record their daily activities so the rest of the world can appreciate their efforts. Besides ... they feed us all .... New video on Fridays @ 10am Eastern time .... more if I have time!

Ahhh that cute smell in the morning 🤮🤣😏
Viel zuviel qm aufn Ha
Man those are cool units with those xerions. Don’t see those used to often with big tanks. Looks good That one tanks spread pattern is sure uneven tho or am I just seeing things? Looks like it’s favouring the left side a lot and going really friken heavy compared to right side. Being in the custom manure hauling business to I know some customers won’t care but some are insanely anal and they’d loose it over that. But by the Looks of the operation you guys are clearly pros and know those details 😂just something that stood out to me.
We in the netherlands always pack the sillage with a wheelloader and a tractor with a wals from ceres
I can almost smell it!!!
The sound coming through one ear when ever that started is not something I like.
What sound don't you like? I don’t understand your comment
@@farmerdrone The sound gets screwed up, only comes through one ear/speaker.
The audio is recorded in stereo and is a large file. If your internet download speed is slow, it could break up. Try setting audio to mono... but there is nothing wrong with the video....
I see why the guy driving the tractor had all those air fresheners. 😅😅💩💩
We used to haul in four thousand gallons trucks brings back good memories.
Good afternoon! What are the names of the houses where pigs are?
Uma "porcaria"😂😂😂😂😂
OMG all those No emissions all the trees and wild plants will die LOL
Compaction city and loose of nutrients injection 😂
That would sure stink
Brilliant video 💪🏻 🏴
Love, love Renfrew always nice to travel through especially when all the leaves are turning colour in the fall ❤
Bonjour, j'ai une questio, à quoi vous sert le télé-gonflage sur les citernes ?
Désolé, je ne comprends pas complètement la question, pouvez-vous essayer de la reformuler s'il vous plaît
amazing
Nice flat fields! Not sure i would want to try that on some of our hills! A single 9000gallon is enough to make ya slide!
Yeah... it would be a bit of a challenge!
@@farmerdroneThat's about 90 ton's all up here in the UK the tractor would be heavy on it's own at upto 20 tons and I know contractor's that run the tractor with a thank body on the back and put an injection bar on the the 3 point linkage and in some situations they'd with lack of power. Good video m
Yes, it would be great to take a tour of the whole place😊
I’m glad you’re there smelling that and not me😂
Just awaiting delivery of my new Smell-o-vision broadcast equipment .. !
Tidiest farm I’ve ever seen, hmmmm….., the little barns?.
That must really smell up the area! The large dairy in our area (15,000 head) has their liquid gold applied with underground piplines to center of each surrounding section of land...then they do the injection method...and it smells for a few weeks.
thanks for the post. That's a huge hurd! where is this?
@farmerdrone West Central MN and Northeastern SD. More operations planned for Southeast ND as well. In the Tri-state area of SD/ND/MN. The silage chopping in early September is very impressive.
They must have huge lagoons of manure to apply it at 12,000 gals an acre.
it's a 2-3 day job to pump this one
110 cubic meters per hectare. In the fall. Crazy.
As explained above, the liquid manure is diluted with (grey) water and does not have the nitrogen levels found in pure manure lagoons. As a consequence, the application rate at this farm is elevated to reach the regular nitrogen application rate.
12,000 gallons an acre is massive, in the UK we’re typically applying 2-3000 per acre. Good job it’s flat
The application rate is usually 3500-6000 gallons per acre. This farm uses a lot of water because of the cleaning of bottles and equipment for the calf operation. The gray water is pumped into the lagoon as well. The lagoon water is diluted and does not have the nitrogen levels found in pure manure lagoons. So, the application rate is elevated to reach the nitrogen application rate. This is monitored and controlled within the cab of the tractor ....
@@farmerdrone Thanks for explaining, I had similar question! Thus, The liquid manure is diluted with (grey) water and does not have the nitrogen levels found in pure manure lagoons. As a consequence, the application rate is elevated to reach the regular nitrogen application rate.
@@farmerdrone Thanks for explanining, what is the rate of dilution?
Why so much manure saturated in one area?
the manure is diluted with water from the calf operation so a higher application rate is needed to get the nitrogen application rate to the required numbers ...
must be nearly 90000kg train weight?
That must be fun to back up
actually, if you watch closely and in my previous videos, I pointed out that these tanker wheels are steerable and synced to the tractor steering making backing up not as challenging as you would think. ... after you know what you are doing that is !
Iiggen we hier hier in Nederland maar een beetje te martelen met wetjes en regelgeving en een beetje te tobben met injecteren gewoon uit rijden die mest bovengronds en zo hoord het een beste bonken strond er op 🌲🌲🌲💧💧💧💧👌👌👌🚜🚜🚜👍👍💪💪
That's an impressive operation to get manure from the lagoon to the fields. I did some relief milking in the original tie stall barn approximately 30 years ago.
Cool! thanks for post .. probably a job for you there still !
Very cool video! The combination of two slurry tanks one behind the other is very rare here. Usually the tractor only has one tank attached. The largest that is permitted here holds 36,000 liters. In recent years, however, the spreading tank has remained on the field and so-called delivery vehicles refill it. By the way, I live here only an hour's drive from the CLAAS headquarters in Harsewinkel. Best wishes from Germany! I wish you a successful 2025!
Good morning Germany 🍺🍺 thanks for your interesting comment .. GREAT tractor the Claas and extremely fuel efficient! These tankers are 65,000 liters and you can see all 3 units in the video. They were spreading over 500,000 liters per hour!
and thanks for the best wishes ... I'll do my best to have an interesting channel in 2025
Muito bom!
muito obrigado. Espero que você siga meu canal..
If my figuring is correct each tanker is 17,000 liters or roughly 4,500 gallons. I worked for a service in Michigan where we were hauling 2 tankers of 6,000 gallons each and injecting the manure. Much better than surface spreading
No that’s 17000 gallons between the 2 tankers Nuhn quad manure trains
this is correct ...
17000 gallons, so one trailer might be 30 tons?
At least 40t per trailer.... My guess would be around 100t for the whole setup when full
Dont matter if metric tons or not, this is absolutely massive. A hell of a "shitty job" 😂😂😂
Such methods are perhaps not authorised in Europe anymore in 2024, probably too much c02 emission. Could be...
Definitely not. You’d get prosecuted in Europe for the volume being applied & it pooling on the surface. You be required to use a low emissions method of application such as a trailing shoe or injection into the soil. These have also been proven to make much better use of the nutrients contained in the slurry.
each country has their rules and standards. This is how we do it here for now ...
Such methods are forbidden for a very long time already. Only using injection and even that has its limit.
@@hughmarcus1 Thanks. Dillution with (grey) also a way to reduce NH3 emissions from application. The rate of dilution determines the rate of emissionreduction.
Guess it is more about NH3 emission and/or NO3 emissions. Not so much about CO2 - emissions, as way of transport seems kind of fuel efficient. 64,000 ltr of transport and application with about 520 hp tractors, nice farm trains with these CLAAS tractors and double Nuhn bins.
Wow! In Minnesota all liquid manure needs to be injected into the ground! Nothing can be spread above ground! This is because of the smell. Feel sorry for those who have to deal with the puking smell of cow shit!
Good day from Kitchener Waterloo area . Interesting video So were is this located? Ths
30 minutes south of Ottawa Ontario
near Russell Ontario ...... 35 minutes SE of Ottawa .... thanks for pointing this out. I have added location to the description ..
One day when i was 13. Mom was touring the country side from morrisburg to gatineau. I made her stop at that farm so i could look at the barns and ask for a tour lol. Always a sharp looking farm.
great story.. I am still batting 1000% when it comes to meeting farmers ... nicest people ever! and really help me a lot getting the shots and angles I need ...
Very informative! Brings awareness about the Farming and amount of work and $$$ cost it takes to grow our food.
Yeah... it's a lot of work and it's expensive!
I’d bet that those calf structures are heated. Serious investment there.
No, the huts are not heated
I believe it's somewhere around 70MT
Anything to get a shot 👍
😂 including smelly wet feet!!
yes ... and my jeans too ....
Incredibly intriguing. Imagine what the neighbors think 😂
The neighbors are farmers too....
I don’t want to be a live stock farmer anymore, I’ll stick to wheat
I too would cash crop instead of beef or dairy if I had the choice
Do these guys have a working nose anymore?
Actually... there is very little smell....
Really fun to watch your videos, you catch the action from so many angles and add subtle low volume soothing music when appropriate. Well done, and may Trumpians never make Canada a State……Ughhhhhh
I try my best to get as many different shots as I can during the day and I really try to make the music fit the scene and the mood. Thanks for the comment and the support.

I bet that smells great mixed. But once the crust forms the smell isnt that bad nornakky.
True... not much smell mixed and no smell capped ...
When I was a kid in the 70's I drove a John Deere 4440 with two 400 bshl grain carts in endless miles from the 10 row combine to the silos. I thought we were soooo efficient. lol Not even close. This is how the big boys do things.
This is a great post and I'm happy you posted to this channel. Great memories... you were state of the art in the 70's driving that great big 4440!! Congratulations 🎊
@@farmerdrone It was the only tractor my little skinny butt could drive. My uncle strapped a feed bag to the seat and to the back so I could push the pedals in. No cab, just this orange/white umbrella and a rusty, corroded AM radio on the fender. And I was paid! I would have done it for free, but I got $1/hour and for a 10 year old kid in the 70's, that was big money! lol Yes, good memories indeed. A lot of hard lessons learned. My uncle was a real stickler on spilled grain. I spent a lot of time cleaning up little piles of corn I was careless with.

You fertilize by dragging that hose all over? Hmmm
Yep ... it's all in the hose
makle BIOGAS"" dait
Too expensive for the setup costs ....
Why is it done like this? Isn't it more profitable/easier with a big slurry tanker or those self propelled ones? Also new hoses every 2 yerars??? Those monster pumps etc... Greetzzz from Belgium
This is a commercial business that pumps and spreads manure for dozens of farms. Big tankers are very expensive ...
Ok... and do you lay hoses to all those farms? Are they near that slurry pit? It still looks unreal for me... then again, I'm an electrican hehehe...
All the farms have their own slurry pit and I'm guessing 2,000-4,000 acres of land. So, this contractor shows up with a bunch of equipment had hoses, sets it up to pump and fertilize the fields the farmer wishes to have done, When finished, they roll up all the hoses and equipment, and head on over to the next farm that needs it done. The cows on each of these farms can fill the manure lagoons in approximately 6 months!
oh now i get it! I thought he just uses that 1 slurry pit for all those farms. yes, all farms have their own pits (duh stupid le lol) edit: +-3000 acres is like 1250ha we use here. my grandfather had about 15ha lol... or 37acres...
