@@karljacobson1575 It might be "stupidly expensive" as a system of systems, but when you consider how much Welker Farms spends on weed control chemicals, anything that allows them to operate more efficiently regarding treatment application should be applauded, not denigrated. Welker Farms is a business, so the better they utilize their resources, the better their profit margin, which in turn allows them to spend more on their operation in order to gain even greater efficiency and profitability. Plus, it's really cool that the system plays the Imperial March during Big Brute's calibration... Tell me I'm wrong... 😆
As a ag technician,I can't imagine all the time and headaches the set up on that Brute would have been. I hope it keeps working great for you guys. Truly astonishing
I pray all the "organic" " green" weenies pay attention to the HUGE investment farmers and the manufacturers they depend on to make our make food production efficient, environmentally friendly and safe. Chem Fallow is a critical component of modern farming that keeps viable land ready for planting when conditions align. At a mere fraction of your acreage spot spraying yields huge results with a huge reduction in product. Well done, and glad to see a century plus old farm staying current!
Big Brute is just getting better and better... And who cares what it looks like. If it works, and it's practical, I say run it. If it breaks down the road, the brackets, then maybe change it, if you guys feel like it. Just because someone doesn't like the look of it, doesn't mean jack. Practial over looks all day. And Thanks for the videos. I try to watch them all when I can. Keep up the good, hard work.
I’ve had an aluminum boom sprayer, I’ve had steel and now carbon fiber. Out of all of the them? The aluminum didn’t last long at all. Started cracking the first season. I’ve had two of the 120ft carbon fiber booms and I absolutely love them. Had zero problems. I hope the aluminum lasts for you.
Those booms really are a thing of beauty. They complement the stainless tank well too. Looks like Brute should give you guys a significant cost savings and efficiency improvement now.
Nice system! Bets the hell out of the old 30’ boom we had as a kid on the farm. Everything got chemical, dirt between rows, weeds, crop, such a waste of chemicals!
That boom support rack does look beautiful, just like it(they) came with the machine and now you can mag-mount a camera for those special view shots. With Aloha...
Nick. You should be very proud of your accomplishments. Incredible engineering you did and the Big Brute doesn’t need to be beautiful . It’s practical. That’s what matters!
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Wow and wow. What a wonderful spray system you have now. My compliments to all of you for your hard work on the booms and spray systems you installed. Beautiful system Nick. Big brute is enjoying all this new spraying equipment. Technology for this is amazing. Wow. Many thanks Nick for showing us the upgrades to big brute and the raven spray systems. Will be great to see it in action. Amazing how it can spray a weed when it sees it. Thanks again nick for your time. I understand the drought is really causing problems again. I believe this is your third year in a row of not enough moisture. I feel bad for you folks. This has got to turn around. I am sending sincere prayers and blessings to the Welker family for RAIN!!!!!!!! May god grant you the moisture for your crops!!!!!! You all take care and be safe. Thanks for showing us your new sprayer system. Thanks for everything Welkers!!!!!! The Iowa Farm Boy. Steve. Rain and rain and rain please !!!!!!!!
It is amazing to see how much technology has influenced production farming with efficiency gains based on the targeted use of herbicides. I just love learning something new like this! Thanks Nick!! 😁
😏 A I has hit the farm field in a BIG WAY!!!! So intriguing to see what farming has become. It is truly a futuristic world you are developing with the help of those tech boys and a WHOLE LOT of COMMON SENSE from the OLD DAYS. GREAT VIDEO - THANKS FOR SHARING .... GOD BLESS 😍😍😍😍😍 🙏
🔥great work welkers.. eh bob from your first sprayer to this weed sensor setup is pretty amazing, must be great feeling see how far your farm and equipment have come. Big brute is all custom and that is the best part 🔥👊🔥⚙️🔨🏍🚜
I’m so happy for you Brother Nick getting it done! You have to feel better about things. It’s remarkable how getting a success like this carry’s over and makes everything better 😏. God be with you and your Family I love you Guys! ❤️🖖🏼🇺🇸
It looks like to be a farmer today you have got to be a mechanic welder and engeneer to do you job. Can dad keep up with you fellows? what about the next generation.? I love to watch your shows. Great. Keep it up.
Been watching you guys for a long time and you’ve come a long way! Enjoy that new system o truly hope it helps with the weed problems you’ve been having.
Now that you are spraying products to handle resistant weeds (kochia) you should show us the weedit coverage maps yearly. Would be interesting to see the reduction in the seed bank.
Watch out for power lines when you wing out your boom. We had a guy doing it this way and he hit the wires and created some fireworks. Eventually the the sprayer tires caught fire and he tried to unhook the sprayer, well that's where they found him, that happened about six or seven years ago. I am pretty sure you just demoed it for the video and normally keep it lower to the ground.
Just something cool to do, ya'll should add LED strip lights to the boom. I feel like not only it'll look good but also help so you know where the boom is at during night/evening spraying
The biggest flex is playing the Star Wars theme song 😂 like identifying weeds while driving and killing weeds is not flexing already 😂 Biggest Flex ever..!!!!
That is absolutely amazing that those sensors can see a weed at driving speed and spray the weed that fast technology is absolutely amazing
And stupidly expensive....

@@karljacobson1575 In his live stream he said it was around $200,000 for just the booms and weed it system... not including the sprayer.
@@karljacobson1575 Why do you care?

Big Brute is the most advanced homemade sprayer, I remember when Brute was first built 5 years ago
And Big Brute was awesome back then. It just keeps getting better and better.
Big Brute looks like a beast of a whole-nother-level. Great transformation in one of a kind.

I know nothing about farming but I know cool. That’s cool. Love your videos. Respect the hard work.
The technology is mind bottling. You guys are amazing to research and them assemble this sprayer instead of buying a new one.
Nick the Big Brute looks awesome with new booms
Highest technology at Welker Farms. Staying on top and improvements of cutting high expenses despite few years of drought and crop disaster.

The wait for this reveal was BRUTEal in the last months - you can tell that Nick was SPRAYING of enthusiasm! 😁😎🤟
Oh, how Big Brute has just grown into being a super sprayer is amazing. Love the content. God bless

Another great testament to your vision and skills. One of a kind beast. Your sponsors have smartly partnered with the Welkers. Win-win.
Great looking tech. Hope it gives you the efficiency you want / need with your chem-fallow and weed control on the crops.
The cradle's crossbar would make a perfect place for some flags. That thing is amazing Nice work
You did a fine job on the big Brute.
Wonderful setup. Great technology! Love to see it in action.
I’m blown away with the tune function. 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Great job putting that together Nick and leg arms
Looks like a fighter jet cockpit
Your family has done a wonderful job with this sprayer. Thank You for sharing 👍👍👍
Impressive job! You have built the most unique sprayer in the country!
That’s cool! Can’t wait to see some more
This is so cool new equipment is great but with the help of experts farmer engineering is so satisfying great video thank you
Love the star wars theme song on the test for the sprayers lol made my day
Star Wars!! Lol!! That's nuts!! Gotta love the tech stuff!!

What a perfect testbench that machine is from the magnum to Big Brute . its amazing how its turned out
“Practical makes sense!” True wisdom!
Amazing tech. From years of spraying I really hope it holds up for y'all
That boom support rack does look beautiful, just like it(they) came with the machine and now you can mag-mount a camera for those special view shots. With Aloha...
Awesome machine!!
You got my head spinning with all the tech stuff lol. Looks like you got handled Nick
Really nice rig!

That cross bar looks like a good place to mount abunch of LED light bars to shine everywhere for night spraying 👍
Congratulations on this major upgrade to Big Brute. I hope this set up works really well for you and saves lots of money.
Hello! Big Brute's intelligent spraying set-up rocks!
That is a sweet set up. I like it 👍
Amazing system and amazing work on your part installing and making it work. Thanks for showing it to us. You guys are the best!
I never learned how to farm, but I can tell by the quality of the equipment that the new system is fire.
That. My friend, is a work of Art!
It is amazing to see how much technology has influenced production farming with efficiency gains based on the targeted use of herbicides. I just love learning something new like this! Thanks Nick!! 😁
Very impressive system ❤
Thank you for the educational video and it looks like a lot of work went into this project

Fantastic work you and Leg Arms have done. The best shot of the video was at the end when you could see the weed-it really working!!
Awesome content 👏
Ya know... Just sayin..... Big bud would be smart to produce this iteration of Big Brute commercially im thinkin...
Congratulations fellers!

Great video Nick
5x3 would be a rectangle lol. I love big brute thing is a beast
Pretty sweet!
Love the imperial March playing through the solenoids. It is not the star wars theme no matter what Nick says
The green onion field was weeded with the Zamboni sized laser weeder. nice tech.
Star Wars theme, LOL! That's so cool
Williams Big Bud Tractor should start building Big Brutes!
Just something cool to do, ya'll should add LED strip lights to the boom. I feel like not only it'll look good but also help so you know where the boom is at during night/evening spraying
You guys do a awesome job on building thing you ,should be proud on what you do awesome job 👍
WOW! that's all I have to say about this subject. Well, incredible also
That thing is soooo cool!
Amazing technology 👍
Love it 👌🚜😁
This is pretty cool.
The biggest flex is playing the Star Wars theme song 😂 like identifying weeds while driving and killing weeds is not flexing already 😂
Biggest Flex ever..!!!!
Practicable makes sense. Quote. 😊. Happy subscriber 😊!
