Seeding A side hill in Palouse CASE w/AgPro Drills

- Rotation crop time. Most farmers around here rotate peas in between crops of wheat. The peas fix nitrogen into the soil with their root nodule bacteria. The wheat performs much better when legumes are planted instead of letting the ground rest. In high rainfall areas this is possible, but only 10 miles west...Rotating peas in will take what little moisture is available and make for a terrible wheat crop. These peas will be replanted and some will go to feed cattle. I hope you guys enjoy the scenery! Have a good one.

Another great video. Thanks The dust in low sunlight always makes such dramatic scenes in my opinion. I'll be going out in a few minutes to shoot some footage of my brother planting alfalfa. Not as dramatic as your scenes but it is what we do here. Thanks again.
I like your videos as well though. Just different.
That is another great video Trevor and thank you for making it and sharing it with us. I never get tired of looking at those impressive hills.
so beautiful
Trevor, your landscape is Unbelievable.
Your droneshots are a big winn, to see the great homestead from you better then ever. 👍👏🤘
Greatings from a german🇩🇪 farmer.
Thank you! Trevor supposedly means large homestead in gaelic. Great homestead is very close.
Thanks for another shots from home.😊😊
another great video keep up ❤
Thank you Bel! Will do!
Thanks for the video. Hi from the UK
Hypnotizing shots!
Another huge step in your work. The drone work is excellent, the contrast in colors and shadows, Especially the tractor shadows crossing in the background. I,m gratful to be a subscriber!
Thank you very much! Yeah that was some good timing on the shadows crossing on the hill behind. I love that time of day, where my shadow is cast half a mile away onto the next hill. It also means its near quitting time! lol. Thanks for commenting.
Best on RUclips
Seeding that terrain seems to be one of those. Why do you plant there? Because we can🤠😎! Thank you for sharing 😊
Exactly! Around here its hard to get away from the hills, and at what point do you say when it is too steep? It all seems relative around here, and we can do it...so we do it! You are right.
Thanks Trevor. Stunning scenery and very sympathetic filming with the sun so low and the shadows long. Did you see the eclipse over there?
Thanks Charles! No eclipse this far west. I saw the one back in 2017 i believe that was a full eclipse if you were in Oregon. I think this one was for the midwest. Thanks for commenting as always!
Great Video Trevor, What are the quad tracs like on the steep hills, I remember when JI Case used to have a all wheel steer 4WD tractor that you could crab steer on some of those sidlings and still point the tractor in the direction of travel, thanks for sharing
They sorta point up and down hill at the same time and perform great. Better than just two tracks and they tend not to make as big of ruts as tires would. You run what you got though, and most of the farmers around here are sitting on some quad tracks for the hills. I am going to film a John Deere air drill tomorrow and hopefully get that video out by tuesday.
Yeah they crabwalk.
Its impressive to see the crab angle of the drill compared to the tractor on the hillside.
I'd like to see wider drills such as a 100 foot wide Bourgault drill being pulled by a Quad on those hills.
Who makes those drills in the video-?
They said ag pro put of lewiston idaho. Thanks john!
It's hard to pull super widespread drills in that country, hills ,strips , gullies ,.,
@@williskinder7794 With enough power, wider ones could be pulled but the crab angle may be more. Wider implements with variable folding sections should be able to match the contours.
What do you think-?
I think I asked the question before, but I can't remember your answer. In the late 80's, lentil were the common alternate year crop, have they fallen from favor to peas? Has the market changed?
Everyone around here is planting a legume of some sort to fix nitrogen and help soil health. There is a market for the peas here, as well as for garbanzo beans. We grow chick peas that are used in the brand Sabre. In higher rainfall areas (closer to the mountains), people grow soybeans these days as well as garbanzo's. There used to be a frozen food plant in Dayton WA, near where this was filmed. There isn't anymore because Green Giant has moved away.
to me as a South African although beautiful, the extreme angles at which you farm is just mind boggling , how is it possible that serious erosion does not occur, and another question is how do you find an upright angle to walk after spending a day seeding
It doesn't rain very hard here, or very often. No-till farming has helped a lot with the erosion. We used to get some pretty good ditches in the field when we used conventional tillage operations.
lol. its just hard on the back to be leaning all day. its much more of a workout than riding in a car.
Do you harvest the peas?
Yeah, they go to animal feed as well as being replanted. The local grain growers takes them and resells them to other farmers and i believe some even go to dried peas for soups. The garbanzo beans we plant around here go to Sabre humus.
