Andy "aTrippyFarmer" Dole is a 6th generation farmer from Central Illinois. On this farm, Andy works alongside his father, Marty, his uncles, Chris and Jeff, and his sister, Katie, to grow corn and soybeans on some of the finest dirt in the world. Andy and his family are deeply rooted in the area, operating a large farm that traces it origins back into the 1800s. Although some tracts did not stand the test of time, Andy and his family still grow corn and soybeans on fields that have been in the family for longer than even the oldest members of the farm have been alive. We do, we have, and we always will take tremendous pride in calling this piece of paradise our home. Andy was a Bronze Tablet graduate of the University of Illinois in the field of Crop Sciences, following the same path as his father and late grandfather.
It would be misleading for Andy to claim that this life is one that came by chance; rather, as a member of two multi-generational farm families, it was simply in his blood. His passion for agriculture traces back to his early youth--some of his fondest, earliest memories being of days spent riding in the combine with his father and grandfather. Although his understanding of the lifestyle was much less complex in the beginning, the love he has for farming, and its industry has only appreciated through time. As this dream blossomed into adulthood, Andy now works relentlessly, and tirelessly, to chase his own dreams and to build a farming operation of his own alongside his family.
We, as a whole operation, are handymen, electricians, mechanics, landscapers, accountants, economists, caretakers, stewards, and, most importantly, farmers, and we take an incredible amount of pride in our work. There is no challenge too overwhelming, no situation too stressful, and no problem too difficult for us to take on, and we want to take you along with us. Welcome to our farm and welcome to our lives. You have the best seat in the house to watch the everyday chaos of farming unfold--we usually only get concerned when things aren't going wrong!

Don’t second guess yourself! You’re one of the greats when it comes to farmtubers and don’t ever doubt it for a second! I watch many different channels and you and 2 others are my absolute favorite! You do great work! Both in the field and on the screen!
That is very kind of you. Thanks!
no thank you for all the time and effort you put into this, i know carrying a camera around is probably not much fun at times, especially while doing work that lets be honest requires both hands a lot of the times. so again thank you!!!! i know i certainly appreciate it!
Never boring always informative great video.
I am glad that you enjoy. Thanks!
Dude, know that it must be a pain in the ass filming but we the people love them.... Keep them coming. Thank you for your time.
Thanks for the encouragement. I will definitely keep it up!
Great video with great information I watch Laura farms one time and she ask that suggest me any farming channel who gives great information I suggest her your RUclips channel and I also comment that 'He make long video but they are full of information and also a little bit fun' Nice to see Lenny and his dance and Graham also 😊 nice to see family.
Lenny like to sing and dance Lenny like to poo poo pants.
Awesome! Thank you!
You all hang in there Andy, we all have a bad day here and there, I doing these videos must take up a lot of your free time, LOL, if there such a thing when you're in the farming business, I for one look forward to seeing how you and your family are doing and all the great advice that you give all your followers, hell man I don't even farm any more, but I still love to watch it going on, get some rest man, and I will see you in the next video, take care man, David Stewart PEI Canada
I appreciate the kind words!
You hang in there sir...I enjoy watching you movies. One of my favorites. I would love if Dad took a camera. That would be right interesting.
Maybe one day!!
Andy, even you should realize what you do isn’t redundant! Since when are two crop years the same? To me that’s why I love farmin. Each year brings its own unique challanges. What worked last year may not the next. You keep doing what you are doing. It is not hyperbole when others say you are the best agtuber when it comes to details. I’m a cotton and peanuts guy and I don’t miss a chance to see what I can learn from you. It’s also just a bonus seeing your Dad go! I’ve decided to name Marty the Red Barron due to his omnipresent red carhartt shirt.
There is no such thing as normal on the farm, though it often follows one of a few distinct patterns every season. Every year sure is an interesting adventure. Dad sure is a character, Believe it or not, he is more mischievous and erratic than most videos capture. He is always up to something...haha
Trippy, hope you received a check for that speech about Acuron. Love seeing Lenny and Graham in the vid. You should offer to custom spray every farmer that has a field next to yours. That way you control how it is sprayed and when it is sprayed, and you also get paid. Keep the vids coming, enjoy watching your channel!! Farmn🚜
As simple as it may sound, it would be hard to commit your sprayer to every farmer when they needed it. These retailers/co-ops/custom crews have multiple sprayers, so they never have to wait to clean out damaging chemicals. There is usually one rig dedicated to that crop type. I have no problem with many of these outfits other than they are a little careless at times.
The mechanic we use started his own shop 14 years ago after leaving Deere himself and he’s been a great mechanic for us. We met him before he left and have only, that I know/remember, had to use Deere twice since as one was a computer glitch in our tractor he didn’t have the program to fix and a bearing issue in the rear axle he doesn’t have the setup to fix.
One unfortunate aspects of the independent guys is that they can't do warranty to work. If you have new enough stuff, it has to go to a certified Deere shop to get the repairs comped. This particular mechanic was our dealership's go-to hagie expert, so it's hard not to call him when there is an issue.
@@aTrippyFarmer yeah we were talking about upgrading our 2013 8235r, our newest tractor on the farm, currently, last year, either trading it in and buying a newer one or leasing, and I mentioned to my boss we might have to worry about that if we got a new enough one, but our price range would’ve been probly old enough it wouldn’t be an issue.
If you want to save yourself some trouble, take the wires off your steering cylinders and put some grease in them to stop corrosion. If the pins corrode, you have to replace the whole cylinder. We found out the hard way. Not cheap and there are 4 of them. Have a good day.
Thanks for the tip. I feel like this hagie is just multiple different expensive repair bills waiting to happen at any given time... haha
delighted you were able to avoid fitting that control box. i anticipate the weather had a part to play there (humidity). be well
You and me both!!!!!
We’ve had issues with boom height and as stupid as it sounds if you unplug that controller and plug it back in it may fix itself. It has worked for us in the past.
Something in that whole process made it work again. I'd rather have to unplug/reset it than to spend the money to replace the entire thing!!!
Hello from Moosomin, Saskatchewan, Canada great videos thanks for sharing with all of us 😊
Thanks for watching!
Your golden retriever has grown a lot. He is looking beautiful.
He is a beautiful and sweet dog. I am still surprised that no one has come to claim him. He fits right in with our current herd of animals!
Sure nice to see a nice healthy corn field. Other farmers are dealing with lakes/swamps or crops washed away
We have had the opposite problem in Central Illinois. It has been dry!
Put dielectric grease on all your electrical connections
Yep and demand that the manufacturers make better connector cases that protect the contact pins from the elements.
That's probably a good idea!!!
They aint wrong you are pretty awesome.
Haha thank you!
My experience is anything electronic is usually not returnable
That was what dad said, but they did take it back!
Honestly your content is top notch for people wanting to learn about farming!
I try to explain the best that I can. That isn't for everyone!
yep as a it guy unplugging cleaning contacts works wonders
I should definitely do that!
Don’t give up, watch all your videos
Appreciate the support!
Keep your videos going Andy! Yes farming seems monotonous, however to us farmers every year is different even though we plant the same crops year in and year out.
Very true!
Like your videos, Andy. Would it help to shorten your content and put out more timely videos? Just a thought knowing you're busy farming and being a dad to 2 little ones. Gang in there, buddy. we support whatever decisions u make.
Yes I would like to be more timely with the videos. It is just hard to sacrifice all of this time and feel like I am not giving enough attention to the kids after work. Shorter videos are definitely easier!
Thanks for continuing to put out videos Andy. I enjoy learning about the latest technology in equipment, as well as chemicals and general farming practices and I think you do a great job explaining it all.
I often flirt the line between educating and putting to sleep.... haha!
Great to see kids! I am not Farmer, but a grandpa!
I think we can all appreciate the value of family. I hope your's is happy and healthy!
Your videos are good with interesting content! I know I can be a pain but you are doing great!
Appreciate that. I will keep going!
Always like your vids , especially after a good days work day
Glad you like them!
Never boring sir, great content Andy!
Appreciate that!
Rock on!
Much Love as Always!!!
Thanks and same to you!
Much appreciated!!!
You would think electronics would be in a properly sealed box but then again they wouldn't be able to sell you more parts
Keep on keepin on good stuff
Same to you!
I'm not a farmer, but I watch all your videos, they're really good!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thank you!
I really enjoy your videos . Lenny was having a good time with the camera .
He always gravitates to the camera. I think it is all of the buttons!
You cleaned contact points. Do contact check before spraying, like oil check.
I am not going to do that every day hahah maybe if it quits working again!
keep the content coming! deere needs to get rid of the norac system on the hagies. boomtrac works flawlessly on the green sprayers
I have heard nothing but great things about the boomtrac system. Supposedly, the green sprayers are much more reliable than the Hagies...
So good to know we are 32 days behind. Ok Andy!
My goal from here on out is to stay closer to real time. The next video that goes live will only be about a week behind.
It would certainly increase the survive-ability of that component if the lines came into a sealed case with grommets, then the connections made inside, so that fluids can't get directly on the connectors. Considering it's right out on the boom, you would think they'd have made it that way. Unless of course they actually want it to fail so they can sell replacements. But we know a manufacturer would never do that. I work with electronics similar to that. In my experience, 9 out of 10 when something fails outdoors, it's almost always just the connection. But most techs tell you they'd charge you more to test each component/connection, then just put a whole new one in. My guess would be you fixed a connection just cleaning it.
I think you are on to something. The mechanic that looked at it said he has replaced a scary number of these units in his day from decay. They get exposed to a lot of oxidizing chemicals on the sprayer boom, so that doesn't help. A few people have suggested a dielectric grease to help seal it off more.
@@aTrippyFarmer there’s also a product I use called permatex ultra black. It’s a non acidic sealant that’s kind of like rubber cement. If you have to take it back apart you can peel it out.
I’ve been a faithful follower since the beginning, hell, I never win anything and the first time I ever won something remotely cool was several years ago when you partnered with Pioneer seed and I tied I won a nice Carhartt hoodie, despite what must feel a bit like groundhogs day for you at times, the details that you share and the way you present the information is very much appreciated and the length and frequency of your uploads has made me anticipate each update for many years now
I remember that giveaway. That seems like many moons ago now... glad to have had you along for the ride!
Yoy do a service for all farmers by documenting the exciting/monotonous as well as the highs and the lows. Bare with it.
Duly noted. Thanks!
Beautiful corn 🌽
Thanks!
You and your wife have some hansom boys 👦
Hopefully they got their looks from her!
Meanwhile I'm doing the whole boom leveling by hand. Though only with a 20 m(~65,6 ft) and the whole boom moves, not just one wing. Still a lot of fun on side hills.
It isn't fun, regardless of size, to run a boom manually. This is even more true when the boom Is bigger and the terrain is more erratic. You are probably a better operator than me if you haven't been spoiled by technology!
Great to have your videos. May be cumbersome but if it is a little profitable keep it up. I'am selfish, I like your stile. :)
Thanks for the positivity!
Good looking corn guy
Thank you. It needs some rain!
Andy, I watch 95% of your vids from start to finish. You do get a little technical at times, but I still enjoy them a lot. If it's becoming a burden, you have to do what's best for you. Your family and work have to be the priority. I'd miss the videos a lot, but I'd certainly understand if you took a hiatus too. I started a channel years ago and lasted less than 2 months. Filming wasn't too bad, but the editing was just not worth the time and effort to me. Whatever you decide, I'm on board with, just please let us know when you do come to a decision. On a totally different subject, As a non farmer I have come to really dislike these dealers that sell all this fancy equipment you guys spend large fortunes on. The amount of profit in that $6000 controller box has to be so grossly inflated it kinda makes me sick. Then the fact that they were hesitant to take it back made me ill. Why on earth should you pay a re-stocking fee for something you didn't use? That's ridiculous if they charge one. This whole farm equipment business needs a reboot. The bottom line is the dealers should be cut out completely. They're a needless middleman IMO, just like car dealers. I like the direct model with local service centers to do the warranty work. Every step along the way from off the assembly line to the end user ads bloated costs that are totally ridiculous. It took forever to finally end the stranglehold realtor had on their insane 6% fee, but it finally happened. I could go on forever, but the fact is we live in the modern age. All these middle men need to go away. Many of the big guitar companies now sell direct to the consumer. It saves me money, and i know I don't have to deal with some person who only wants to sell me the after market warranty and other nonsense. I digress...happy weekend to the entire family. BTW, in my business, they did away with the middle man (me) years ago. I was a trader at the Chicago Board of Trade and The CBOE. Now we're all gone and the entire market is run much more efficiently by a massive network of light speed computers. How can I make an argument that today's method isn't a thousand times better than before I retired?
I appreciate the comment. The videos started as a fun hobby and quickly grew into quite the work load. I have enjoyed the community, the success, and the extra income, but it can feel burdensome at time. I think everything in life can be that way, just have to keep a positive perspective. As for the computer part, It is typically standard policy to not allow returns of electronic parts like that. I don't know why...probably because of the price. I think you make a fair point about middlemen adding a lot of bloat to pricing. I think car/tractor dealerships do provide a valuable service, which is a marketplace for used equipment. Realtors are the opposite. Ironically, I am a licensed realtor, but I still recommend my closest friends to consider self-listing properties. Realtors do provide some value as well, just not 6% of anything over $50,000. Some do argue that the CBOE has become detached from fundamentals with the computerized trading. Regardless, a large portion of society exists in a middleman-type job. It is a bureaucracy of sorts. There are too many people feeding their family and paying their taxes with these incomes to cut them out unless there is a highly efficient competitor that can do so.
@@aTrippyFarmer Well said. I can tell you with certainty that when humans were making markets in options as well as grains, they were quality. Usually deep and liquid due to guys like me taking our jobs very seriously. Sometimes we were the bug and other times we were the windshield. The automated markets now are tricky. I've seen some big players just turn the machines off when the volatility intraday gets too crazy. We as humans didn't have that luxury. Overall, my opinion is that markets in general are so far detached from reality, you just have go with the flow. That's just one opinion. Thanks for the reply. Hope 24 turns out great for all our valued farmers.
Whew we re combining y’all just planting you in the Southern Hemisphere?
Good morning
Thanks for watching!
It frosted here this morning
Andy,two weeks after planting my corn I had amazing weeds and because I also have a sixty hour a week job I sprayed it as soon as possible! After working in my fertilizer should I do a pre emerge spray so it’s not a fight for the corn to get started?
All depends, most post corn sprays can be sprayed from spike to 6 leaf. If weeds are out of control now then yes do a burndown before corn is up - if not wait a week and hammer that stuff down
I think someone has to consider that. We had some field that the preemerge didn't get sprayed until after planting/tillage. They didn't get a timely rain to "activate" into the soil profile. We ended up with a huge flush of waterhemp, which was a real treat to deal with. There is no perfect strategy, in my opinion.
Wat r ur thoughts on cultivating corn would tht reduce the cost on herbicides
Problem is people don't have the time - herbicides really dont cost that much per acre compared to time + fuel of cultivating
By the time you account for equipment costs, multiple passes, crop damage/inefficiency, etc.., I don't think manual row crop tillage is a viable solution unless you are committing to organic production. Otherwise, a well-planned herbicide plan is the best way to manage here in the corn belt.
What is the connection between the herbicides you spread and the cancer on your nose?
I would speculate absolutely zero correlation because the skin cancer was removed before I had even spent 1 second inside the cab of a sprayer. It is genetic based on my skin complexion.
We do everything ourselves so we don't have extra and unnecessary expenditures.
From a cash-flow perspective, doing it yourself is always the best option. I don't think that is always true from realistic cost analysis. There are some things that are almost a wash to have custom done if you are fairly accounting for depreciation, time, opportunity cost, etc..
how are you dealing with japens beatle infinstion
We don't treat our corn for insects. Our soybeans will get sprayed with a fungicide and insecticide at R3 growth stage to help reduce insect population.
Who's fancy semi tractor is setting at your home farm
That is my Uncle's. It is forsale!
Remember, Computer parts fail when no replacements are available!
That would be a nightmare!
6oz meso is pre-emergent rate, 3oz is post
I believe that 6 oz is labelled post for non-generic mesotrione. Nearly every post-application involving Callisto here that didn't have a pre is spiked up to the maximum one-pass rate of 6 oz. Slightly more residual and firepower against water hemp with next to no crop response....most of the time. It is also so darn cheap that it's hard not to push the rate.
@@aTrippyFarmer Nope, Right from Callisto label
CALLISTO HERBICIDE USED ALONE - POSTEMERGENCE
Apply Callisto Herbicide at 3.0 fl oz/A per application
Do not exceed a total of 6.0 fl oz/A (0.19 lb ai/A) for the two postemergence applications
Oh your ping baby corn for the Chinese restaurants
Syngenta is owned by chem china 🇨🇳 I've been using trivolt
TriVolt is pretty underwhelming. Bayer also isn't exactly Mother Theresa 🤣
Was that dawn dish soap added in too?
Helps clean the screens - we use cases of it
Yeah I try to throw dawn dish soap in every tank to help keep things clean like that other commenter said. I read about it on a Facebook group. It supposedly makes cleaning out at the end easier because it stops chemicals like atrazine from plugging up places.
You’re boys a re shure cute
Thank you. I think so as well!
It can probably get very repetitive recording your job day after day just know it’s it is entertaining however it’s more of a lesson on what farmers go through just to supply us, the world, great products. BTW you need to answer the million dollar question is it called a planter when all that’s ran through it are seeds. Maybe DB-60 seeder. Food for thought…..
So the small grain guys are seeders. There is no precision to them other than pounds per acre. While row crops are indeed planters due to the precision. You hear the term “plant population” used for row crops? There’s your answer.
As the other guy said, I believe the difference comes from how the seeds are placed into the ground. A seeder is much more inaccurate than a planter when it comes to population and depth control. It is really just a difference in semantics. A planter is a precision tool where as a seeder is more of a generalized seed placer. I know newer seeders are actually pretty accurate, but I am sure the terminology will not change.
Hat goes off to you mate. You have their brochures memorized.
Companion planting and winter crops to incorporate as organic fert are the future tho. Not chemical.
America is so so so far behind the rest of the world and still just pouring chemicals on. Seems that way from my travels around the world in Agriculture.
Also is it standard practice standing up on a truck trailer tipping chemicals in with no rinse facilities for the jugs? Doesn't seem very good practice?
Variability in climate, growing season, rainfall always has a say. Just because you “see it” in other countries and I am assuming Europe, they are having a full fledged mutiny from farmers that are pissed at the draconian laws that are not backed by science. Take it from a farmer that has traveled the world, the one common tool most have equipment wise are sprayers. If you ever get bored, go look up yield data for corn over the last 30 years since the advent of genetically modified crops. It’s more than doubled since the late 90’s. While minimum till and no till have also really taken off in that time frame. Those three combined have increased yields, fertility and reduced erosion in a world that the population has increased and acres plus farmers have decreased. It’s better to speak of what you know. Dont you think? The reality is we Americans are far ahead in the realm of ag. Where do you think all the technology, data and chemistry comes from?
Organic Fert makes 0 sense honestly - Organic Potash is literally just the screenings of 'regular' granular potash. It's just a word to keep the city folk happy
@@afazool123 do your homework , the rest of the world grow forage crops, red beets etc, full of nutrients and nitrogen, then incorporate it into the soil before planting. I know small minds in certain countries struggle with modern farming but perhaps it's time to take off the bib overalls and straw hat and join the rest of the world.
@@stakman78 show me any evidence of any operations that do this to scale and be profitable
@@stakman78
I find it hard to believe that there are row crop farms of 1,000 ...2,000... even 5,000 hectares in size (like the grain farms in the Midwest USA are), that are planting forage crops and plowing them under as fertilizer, not using any chemicals, and yielding 1,500 to 2,000 metric tons per hectare.
Sounds like you'll be shutting down the channel soon
Probably not. This is a very nice income.
Hey
Mate,that’s farming isn’t monotonous and routine
Year in year out
Farmers get that.
Think the balance of life,family,farming,new stuff some drone this that
It’s going to get better with the little ones growing up Andy.
Hang in there
I would suggest to keep the trade name per minute rate down somewhat😂
Look when are you going to take on this sub soiler vs deep ripper trial on?
It’s something that’s a lot more complex think I believe you realise!
It’s the answer to the dry and water retention,extra nutrients and using those big tractors for something other than cultivation.
Andy,look into Great Plains sub soil era
Get them onboard and do this years beans stubble ground.Only thing you need to watch is the drainage lines
I appreciate the well-considered comment. I am glad that someone is keeping track of me!
@justwar76 (Justin Ward) Hi
