These videos are very much appreciated by this 80 year old son of an upstate New York farmer! My Dad had a small 50 acre farm from 1942 until 1975. It's great to see how much more advanced farming is now!!! Great viewing for my wife and I! THANKS!!!!
That sunrise was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! Especially with it peeking through that one lone tree! For the Q & A, what is the family history of the farm? Eric, if you didn't go into farming, what career would you have chosen? Eric, did your Dad want you to continue in the family business of farming? Or did he want you to do something else? Eric, how long have you been married? How many employees does the farm have? Thank you for another great video! Please keep them coming!!
Fixing breakfast for my girls!!!! An every morning and night chore!! Enjoy the channel. When I was growing up, we milked up to 10 old Herefords by hand mornings and night.
I wish I had this when we had our dairy. Only had the bucket from our 400 IH loader, we had to “stab” the pile work the bucket and hope we knock a good chunk off if not repeat the process 5 times lol
Some people think he works 24/7 when actually its only around 18/6 ;) nobody outworks farmers, and thank god because we'd all starve if they didn't. Feeling inspired to do more. Love this channel.
@@BlazeDuskdreamer I don't know if it's lost in translation or just uninformed or maybe even just clueless, but to think that because a farmer has irrigation that they sit around all day is beyond funny/ridiculous etc. I always tell my son driving past farms in the winter that those farmers might not be out in the fields but that they are repairing equipment and preparing for spring etc they might get a bit of a break from the insane spring/summer/fall hours (thank god) but they don't take winters off. Instead of binge watching he could shadow a farmer for a week, he probably wouldn't last even just watching though ;)
@@BlazeDuskdreamer Spammer should try to understand that it takes a few hours to milk and feed the herd 1 time per day and then realize that they milk this herd 3 times per 24 hours.
I enjoy watching your videos! MY FAVORITE THING TO WATCH IS THE COWS WITH THE AUTOMATIC SCRATCHERS!!! I could watch that all day!! Lol! Thank you for the videos
I almost believed you when you said you weighed 80 pounds... I was like no way someone feed this kid a hamburger! We all know you're well fed with all that milk you're chuggin'.
@@trighap But he only drinks one soda a day? *grabs 80oz bottle* But seriously, he needs every bit of it. Me? If I did that I'd look like one of his cows real quick haha
Do you have a favorite cow... ??? I love watching... Always cow's watching you... lol... God Bless all thank you for sharing... You Dad is lucky to have you... Amen...
Thanks for sharing and telling the story of Agriculture. We are only 2% of America that feed the world. The average age of today's producer somewhere around 65 years of age. We need to encourage younger folks to get involved in agriculture. Keep it going!
Love the videos, thanks for sharing. I hope it opens some people’s eyes to the tremendous amount of work that goes in to the milk and dairy we love so much. What do you like to do for fun away from the farm?
Your herd management is impressive, you probably have no idea how much information you've learned in your young life. Very impressive! Dad can be real impressed with his sons work ethic !
What do you do with old dairy equipment that still works do you sell some things? What are your favorite and least jobs on the farm? what do you like/who do to watch on youtube?
Question for your Dad, Hello I’m David retired in Costa Rica, I watch everyone of your sons postings. He is a good kid and you have done a great job. If it's not to personal, tell me how you gained control of the original farm and a history of it’s growth. It’s obvious you’re a smart, hard working farmer, as you well know most farmers have gone out of business, Why are you still standing?
Why farmers don't work 24 hours a day they got to work just a few hours in the morning a few hours when they milk that's pretty much about it as well as feeding them at the same time to start a RUclips channel my my daughter basic started a channel without telling me she just asked me for it but she told me that she had one but she doesn't get paid for any of it and people are giving a heck about that cuz she's makes really good stories at least according to them.
@@danielpeterson6987 Have you been watching this channel? He does much more than milk and feed and clean stalls. He's had videos where his day didn't end 'til 9pm or midnight. While that's the exception and not the rule, farmers don't work just a few hours. They work all day long except for some breaks for meals and the like. Farmers are not part-time workers, especially dairy or any that tend animals.
@@danielpeterson6987You obviously know absolutely nothing about farming. Farmers are very hard working from early morning until into the evening. Sometimes well into the night. And it's a good thing too, otherwise we would all go hungry. Have you even watched any of Eric's videos before you commented?
You may not work 24/7 but having grown up on a dairy farm I know you work dang close to it. People have no clue about just how much farmers work. Your effort directly correlates to how successful your farming operations are. Keep up the awesome work!
We enjoy watching your videos from Spring Valley, MN. We live on an old dairy farm so it’s fun for the kids to see what went on here 20 years ago. My 3 year old will ask “can we watch that nice boy?”
G'day from Australia Eric!!!!. My wife and i like the "matter of fact" way you talk about the many things you do on the farm. No hype, just what is and has to be done. Hope you are able to keep on top of things in this crazy time.
I'm curious about how many employees, either full time or part time you have?? It's gotta take more than just a few people to keep that operation going.
I want you to know that I really appreciate YOU , Eric. You take the time to film your daily work on your farm and it is very interesting and informative. Thanks for sharing and I am glad that you do get some time to spend with your cool little family. Peace for now.
I enjoy your videos, are you planning on taking a little time off this summer with your wife and child? I think you guys deserve a break, also...... do you have any hobbies? If so, what are they?
Hey man, I'm from Brampton, Ontario. Just recently started watching your videos. I like to see how hard you work and how much pride of ownership you have for your equipment. I.e Pre trips, checking fluids, maintenance, etc. I work in the waste industry driving garbage trucks working residentially and I must say I feel like my job is physically laboring. But once I saw the amount of time and effort that goes into maintaing a farm. I swear, I have a new level of respect for you. It's not only a lot of math that you do on a daily basis, but also constantly operating heavy equipment and having to be precise at all times makes it a mentally and physically draining job. Brother, im not sure how old you are but you look young. Big shoutout to you and your father and everyone who helps. I know it's not an easy job. Thanks for the awesome uploads. It motivates me to work hard just like a lot of people out there. Stay safe man.
I obviously cant speak for him, but I live and work with my family on their farm in the summer and we all go sleep around 11 to midnight and wake up around 5 give or take based on the work for that day
I was wondering how you are being paid for your work since its a family farm. Or if you dont get paid regular way. Dont wanna know the amounts just the how
It probably works the same way most other family businesses do, the business has its own accounts and they pay themselves from the business account. This is how my family does it. As for how much he and his father pays themselves? No clue lol
Farmers are some of the hardest working people out there, up before light and back in the dark. My father grew up on a potato farm, I wish I had grown up on one but at least he did so I could learn good work ethics from him
Here is a question for both of you - I would love to know the history of the farm, at what age did you decide to stick to farming, vs moving on to another career? Did either of you do college? And is Eric growing a mullet? Ha
Cows have a picking order among them selves , like you will have one who thinks she is the boss and will try to boss all the other ladies around,it is fun to watch them.
I've been watching both for a long time . . . enjoy both Eric and Tom and was great fun to see the shootout and for the Ginger Warrior to be open to using that rear weight 😀
Love your videos man. Every young man growing up needs the work ethic you have and the drive to do the work right. Going by the videos your Parents are amazing people and have raised a awesome man. Keep videos coming.
In the last few years, after accounting for reinvestment into the business and the value of their time and management, a lot of farmers lose money per cow per year, but they underestimate their time and therefore the farm can still cash flow until the next profitable year
The same place that gives them chocolate milk as well picks up there milk if you ever hear them tell you where the milk that he gets his chocolate milk then you know where the milk is the milk company that picks up his milk.
Sorry if any of my questions are repeats! 1) Could you tell us a little about how and when your family go into farming? 2) The cows seem so calm and move along so peacefully to get milked. Can you talk a little about that and how they are so calm? Do they always return to the same stall? 3) Is each cow milked twice a day or once? 4) What changes would you like to implement on the dairy farm? Any wish list for the future? Or...maybe everything is running just fine. 5) How many in your family (brothers? sisters?)....and do they all participate in farming with you? 6) Last one is not a question....I just want to tell you, as I usually do in almost every video...LOL, that you are an amazing and hard-working young man! I'm sure your dad and family have worked very hard, too! You should all be very proud of yourselves! Love, love, love your videos!
Cows don't know one day of the week from the neck except if the kids go to school and your home two days out of the week cuz can figure out something different about that but the cows routines that exact same every single day never changing promise got to work 7 days a week. 65 days a year non-stop I'm milking cows because they never stop except to have babies.
Daniel Peterson i know that cows dont know which day it is that was a joke, and i worked in dairy factory for 2 years so i know how everything works when it comes to milk and cows 😄😄😄
I enjoy your videos very much. You’re a hard working young man and do it with humility and an obvious faith, family and farm attitude. I farm myself in Minnesota and am close to your Dad’s age. My son farms with me. We grow corn, soybeans, hogs and beef cattle. Keep up the good work and good luck this year, I’ll be watching. I retell the story of your can of Pepsi you saved from the pit and gave your Dad walking across the yard, but then admitted something was fishy
I such a large farm doesn't have a large farm is Farms are more rented out her mother Farmers that they rent they don't have a large farm you may think they do but it's actually quite small and come up with all that time it's kind of easy you only work in the field so much in the spring and fall and you just got a water if you have irrigation or fertilize them but otherwise they pretty much don't touch their fields except for when they get up Pickett it.
Good morning and hello Eric you look a little tired my hardest part was getting up in the morning I know how you feel those cows are happy to see you you're farm is so nice and clean . The feed does look good thanks for another good video 👍🇺🇸 .
I watched several dairy channels and I am very pleased to see just how nice your feed is kept. I think you do an excellent job in getting your cows GREAT feed all year long!!
Really looking forward to the Q & A Video with you and your dad. You guys are great. Congratulations on getting so many subscribers. You deserve them all... great job.
Glad you hear you don't work as long of days as we thought. And good thing you got the robot scratchers, that job would keep you busy all day! So you have control of the farm for one day a week? Time for a milk party! Who watches out for your safety if you are alone? Lots of power in your equipment and so be careful young man, we want to make sure there are many generations of dairymen to come.....
Ditto to all of the positive comments about your channel. The key to your success, as I see it, is because you have "PERSONALITY " Great job and thank you.
Yep, you are appreciated! Hey I got a good chuckle at 4:21 "It's not bad. I would eat it." Grab a bowl of them toasted corn flakes. But wait, can you find any milk to complete your bowl of breakfast?!!
Hey Eric for the ussue with the feed left on the mixing screws we just put the pto speed of the tractor to 1000 rmp and that helps to get most food of it. And thx for the awesome videos 💪💪
Hoping to film a Q&A along with my dad in the near future. Comment below with any questions you have for us. Thanks!
What do you most enjoy about dairy farming?
Hi I’m doing good hope you are doing well
Hobbies?
Tell us about your family and the farm a little bit.
10th Generation Dairyman how do you water ur crows
The cows really enjoy those roller brushes. Every time we see them there is a cow using them and others lined up for a turn.
1ponsford yeah it’s a good way to keep them happy
I could use one of those for myself at home.. LOL
No HBO in the barn.

10th Gen DM videos are a cut above all the others. So much info and action. Thanks for posting!
I think every farm has at least 1 farm dog. On our farm we have 7 dogs and they all just run around and like to ride in the tractors and herd cows.
Enjoy watching! Lived on a farm growing up. Hand milked one cow, my job, every am and pm. Farming is hard work, you are truly dedicated.

Great job on the video you inspired me to do those things like you
Yes
I also enjoy seeing the babies.. you have very happy cows . Enjoying the videos
Curious how long it takes to mix everything together. I'm use to beef cattle, and throwing out giant bales of hay. lol
I am ashamed to complain about my work now. The amount of work and effort is amazing and commendable. Excellent job.
Do you notice a change in the amount of yield you get when using liquid fertilizer vs cow manure?
I enjoy seeing 482 also ! It’s awesome she’s always 1st . She looks so happy

What is your favorite part about farming, Eric?
It’s amazing how you feed the cows, watching your video reminds me to my grandpa. 👍
From start to finish, how long does it take to get all the cows fed?
Thanks and I love the channel
Always love watching the mix of feed!! 5:15 is a sleep in 😬 yikes. But doable this time of year planting time just love it. Thanks Eric

So you have control of the farm for one day a week? Time for a milk party! Who watches out for your safety if you are alone? Lots of power in your equipment and so be careful young man, we want to make sure there are many generations of dairymen to come.....
I love that you are working hard every day for your dad 🥰😌
You never stop Eric, you’re champ 😃👍
your cows are so calm & quiet!
You guys have very nice herd of cows 🐄 I miss Dairy farming please keep on milking cows . I Support Dairy Farmer and all 🚜
Ditto to all of the positive comments about your channel.
The key to your success, as I see it, is because you have
"PERSONALITY "
Great job and thank you.
It amazes me that milk can pay for all of this. Thanks for the video!
Yep, you are appreciated! Hey I got a good chuckle at 4:21 "It's not bad. I would eat it." Grab a bowl of them toasted corn flakes. But wait, can you find any milk to complete your bowl of breakfast?!!
what a difference between 5 cows and 172 cows. the work you have to do is amazing. Thanks.
Your dad has to be proud of your degree of precision in your work and your work ethics. Enjoy your videos.
