Half the country has pivots and you have no idea how many people that is but it’s more like less the half the population doesn’t know about these things and there is more than one way to set them up.
I'm a 64 year old retired Canadian military who didn't know much about farming except for our little backyard garden. I discovered your channel about 5 or 6 months ago and recently got all caught up watching multiple videos a day. Now when we drive pass a farm or farm equipment dealer I find myself explaining to my wife what everything does. It's been refreshing to watch you, Grant, Gage and your family, explaining everything in such detail. Thank You to all of you for being so informative and detailed in your videos. Keep up the good work and great videos. P.S. Did anyone ever mention how much Gage looks so much like Lane Hutson. Lane is an American ice hockey player playing in the NHL for my favourite team, the Montreal Canadiens, they're close in age but look alike.
Hello dear, thanks for the comment❤️, on my youtube vidoes, where I finally made a decision to text with you , what’s your name and where are you from??
The transition from a 1972 pivot to a 'new to you' 2002 model is impressive! Love how nothing goes to waste on your farm, even old parts get a second life! ♻
Your videos have become so professional and seemingly effortlessly well done. The addition of the drone shots really gives "the big picture" of the massive spaces you're working with. Really well done. Both you and Grant have become such pros at displaying and describing your projects in a simple straightforward manner. Makes for VERY entertaining content. Bravo!

It wasn't until a relatively few years ago that I ever heard anyone other than a city-slicker refer to a "crop circle." I always heard them called a "center pivot field" or just a "center pivot." It's always amazing how many airline passengers have no idea why there are green circular fields out on the Great Plains that they see below them. One of my friends worked for a family farming operation that operated 28 center pivots on their land in eastern Colorado, western Nebraska, and western Kansas. He was the only non-family employee in the operation and all he did year-round was maintain the family operation's center pivots. A very nice educational presentation by Laura.

Crop circles in the US might be man-made by pivot irrigation equipment, but here in the UK no-one has been able to explain the crop circles that randomly appear in cereal fields! Here in the UK we do not use pivots, our fields just aren't big enough for them to be practical. In this country we tend to use the wind-in reel type of irrigator, and water tends to be drawn from public water courses, or from on-farm irrigation ponds/lagoons; one manufacturer of these reel-type irrigators is 'Wright Rain', which might originally have been a US company. The disadvantage of these is that they need to be moved along the field after every pass, and the feed pipe extended. The way they work is that the reel is stationary at the end of the field, and the water cannon (the same concept that Laura has been fitting to each end of her pivots this year) is then towed out to the far end of each section to be irrigated. The whole system is powered by the water pressure coming from the main irrigation pump, and the water pressure drives the reel to pull the wheeled water cannon back onto the reel, where it has an auto switch-off system to shut down the main irrigation pump; and, like Laura's pivots, application rates are programmed on a main control unit on each reel! The farm I live on is one of 10 farms totalling about 2500 acres with each having a full underground water main pipe network of supply points at the fence lines, making it easier to connect the reels to! Whilst the need to keep moving the irrigator reels along the endrigg is a pain, it does mean that there are much less moving parts or water spray points to go wrong, so these irrigators appear to require a lot less maintenance than the pivots during the irrigation season! So, Crop Circles! In the UK, crop circles aren't a series of circular lines, like the ones Laura showed in her video, but they are circular areas of cereal crops that have been flattened in a complete and perfect circular pattern. They appear overnight, and are of different diameters; there are some instances of more than one crop circle in a field, often of different diameters, and occasionally they can intersect each other! These crop circles started to appear in Southern England about 45 years ago, and there has been much debate on national TV as to what has caused them, and how they are formed; to my knowledge there is no record of any part finished crop circles, and as I said earlier, they appear overnight with no sign of any tracks, either by vehicle or foot, leading to/from them in the rest of the field! The fact that they form perfect circles, and the crop appears to be flattened in a rotary pattern, almost as if they have been made with a roller, but with no evidence of any ground disturbance in their making! Also, they are only made towards the end of the crop's growing cycle, and not when the crop is still green! One thing is certain, they have baffled everyone, including the scientists, for decades!!
Type in "ufo crop circles" to see how strange they are. They are damaging the farmers crops with their ugly art. There are also man made designs to confuse the subject even more.
There's no mystery in crop circles, people with nothing better to do make them. I farm in the North of Scotland and I don't hear about them up here because we don't have the population to have enough of the strange people to do this. Circles can be easily made with a pin in the middle and a rope plus board to flatten the crop. If Aliens were landing don't you think they'd pick a grass field or wooded area to avoid being detected.
Couple of things.. I think it generally rains quite a bit more here than in Nebraska - especially in the last day or so. As a result, the irrigation system probably doesn't have quite as much work to do. And.. However mysterious our crop circles look, I think it's still accepted that they're made by pranksters just hoping for coverage in the press.
John Rae You're absolutely right. Real crop circles have nothing to do irrigation or pranksters. They form precise intricate designs and the stems of the plants are curved in such a way that is baffling to those who investigate them.

Wow 73 thu 76 I put up a lot of the Valley pivots covered Utica to GI, Sutton to St Paul area. We used an old 620 John Deer with a loader setting up the pivots. The old hand clutch made for some interesting days. Only got knocked off one tower when a farmer wanted to help with his loader. He kept trying to move things when we were not ready.
I am so glad that you took the time and opportunity to once again share your knowledge and experience with us. I have seen pivots working but never know what it took to maintain as well as relocate one. Thank you again for the educational video!!! Stay safe In the new year and best wishes for a wonderful spring!! Keep these great videos coming!!!
Hello Laura. This was a great video. Traveling through west Texas I see a lot of these pivots. I never realized the work and the maintenance that goes in to keeping them operating until I started watching your videos. You guys are amazing. Love y’all
1982 or 83 I helped move a used pivot from this area to up north of Hordville Just two of us we made 8 trips one for the piviot point tower and the rest for the towers. An old boom truck and homemade cart made from a old wagon running gear. My job was running the drawbar tonge steering around the corners.

Well Laura, even in winter you can't get away from pivots. A lot of difference in cost of new and recycled pivots. Happy New Year to you all, love from Mike. ❤
This crew is working circles around other crews (ha)! Seeing every crew member in action while setting up the pivot demonstrates what happens when everyone knows and executes their role.
As a child, I recall assisting my much older cousin with what I believe was called furrow irrigation during the 1960s. We used tubes to channel water from a ditch into the furrows. It was summertime, and I ended up suffering heat stroke. This was just northeast of you, btw. Farming is a little easier now days.
did you even toke a look at a real crop circle ? , pivot have nothing to do with crop circles, usually where crop circles are found there are no pivot, like for exemple in europe , we don't use that, usually it s a mystery how it s made, you think if it was made by a tire, no body will notice lol
Good morning Sunshine! It's nice to start my morning and year with one of your informative videos and discussion. That track closing attachment seems to do a very nice job for you. I enjoy the insights you share and your delivery style and presentation. Have a blessed year and upcoming week you guys. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
Do you ever have to drain any part of the pivot during the winter? I figured they would not freeze and pop because of the sprinklers allowing air through them. ❤

Hi Laura. Best to you. You really need to understand and share with your fans that 'crop circles' have nothing to do with pivot irrigation. Please do a little research and share with everyone.
Laura I hope you and Grant take all the scrap metal pivots to your local scrap iron location and make a few hundred or thousand bucks for the price of scrap metal.

Lived in the English countryside in 1990... There was a band of local bandits making them in the Chiltern Hills. As a sci-fi kid, I was enthralled. This was before it was widely known that they were man made.

Great job on your presentations! You do so well explaining things...I enjoy your channel and content! Thanks for sharing the " inside" of farming! Great camera and drone footage!!
I live near Lancaster, Pennsylvania. This is one of the few areas of the world where irrigation is not needed to grow crops. Yet, land use planners continue to permit the use of the land to be changed from farmland to townhouses.
I really enjoyed this video, already have watched it twice. Even though I kne much of what you covered, seeing it all in one video was great. Looking forward to seeing your content this next year.
Had a neighbor who took an old pivot and cut a chunk out of one section. Then he cut a hole in the side of a couple of the wheels/tires, suspended them, and filled the lower half with concrete. As far as I know, his grandkids are still using his pivot swing set.
Hello dear, thanks for the comment❤️, on my youtube vidoes, where I finally made a decision to text with you , what’s your name and where are you from??
Very enjoyable and educational. City folk can sure learn a few things (or a lot of things) from farmers. City dwellers, take notes. Looking forward to another year of Laura farms
Thank you Laura for educating people and busting these myths about aliens and crop circles and Laura I do hope people will come from looking at this video and being more educated and more informed
after that kinda heavy rain do you Have to irrigate while the weak spots are still muddy? can you stop the pivot just past the lowland right before a storm then irrigate the high/dryland then stop again just before the lowland until it dries out?
Hi Laura , its me agaion , now a subscriber, with a small comment on the crop circles that actually started that curosity. Most of the first circles were in England and Europe and there were not any pivits there back in the 60s and early 70s. A very interresting area in the US is up on the Palouse in northern Idaho and eastern WA with the geodesic crop fields on the undulating hills that are farmed in that area . Makes a very enterresting plane ride over that region. Yep, yopu have crop circles but they aint the originals which may have beem a result of some voodoo from Stone Hinge !!! Oh well , just a little food for thought . Harry in AK
Hey, I forgot to say... Looking forward to seeing you and Grant at The Offroad Games. I think that it would be neat for Gage to be able to go with you two, to have the Laura Farms Crew there in full force.
Very good video, actually have a friend who works for the local pivot company all of their stuff is repair work or new installation Very hard working crew
I still like the "aliens from outer space" theory. Seriously, thanks for the video. It explains a lot to this east-coast guy about pivots. I've seen them while traveling through the midwest, now I know a lot more about them.
That was a very. Informative video...Thank-you... I do have a question for you.The old pivot, do you scrap it out at scrap medal pricing.. What happens to it?
Thank you so much Laura and Grant I have learned so much about something very far from my normal day from you and I am loving it. Had a question on this one - the remaining metal components, do they have any value as scrap?
Performing a task that 99.9% of the population had no idea even existed. Love the insight into your world. Keep it up

Laura shared her knowledge of farming freely and simply so that non-farmers can understand the reality of farming and all the complications
We called them irrigated field when I was a kid in Florida.

I live near Lancaster, Pennsylvania. This is one of the few areas of the world where irrigation is not needed to grow crops. Yet, land use planners continue to permit the use of the land to be changed from farmland to townhouses.
Only ~15% of the US corn crop is irrigated. That means 85% is grown without irrigation. Most US farmland is not irrigated.
I really enjoyed this video, already have watched it twice. Even though I kne much of what you covered, seeing it all in one video was great. Looking forward to seeing your content this next year.
Had a neighbor who took an old pivot and cut a chunk out of one section. Then he cut a hole in the side of a couple of the wheels/tires, suspended them, and filled the lower half with concrete. As far as I know, his grandkids are still using his pivot swing set.
What another great MASTER CLASS
Thank you Laura.
Congratulations on your new to you pivot

Thank you for a pivotal video.
lol
Very enjoyable and educational. City folk can sure learn a few things (or a lot of things) from farmers. City dwellers, take notes. Looking forward to another year of Laura farms
I am enjoying the information you provide the details.❤
It's possums in the autumn, pivots in winter and it's farm cats in the spring There's always some killin' you got to do around the farm.
Great video!
Looking good keep up the good work Happy New Years🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😎😎😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Awesome video! Keep up the hard work 💪🏻
Thank you Laura for educating people and busting these myths about aliens and crop circles and Laura I do hope people will come from looking at this video and being more educated and more informed
after that kinda heavy rain do you Have to irrigate while the weak spots are still muddy?
can you stop the pivot just past the lowland right before a storm then irrigate the high/dryland then stop again just before the lowland until it dries out?
Thanks and Happy New Year! from Germany.
That was some incredible footage. I really enjoyed watching.

Bonne et heureuse année 2025🖖

Hi Laura , its me agaion , now a subscriber, with a small comment on the crop circles that actually started that curosity. Most of the first circles were in England and Europe and there were not any pivits there back in the 60s and early 70s. A very interresting area in the US is up on the Palouse in northern Idaho and eastern WA with the geodesic crop fields on the undulating hills that are farmed in that area . Makes a very enterresting plane ride over that region. Yep, yopu have crop circles but they aint the originals which may have beem a result of some voodoo from Stone Hinge !!! Oh well , just a little food for thought . Harry in AK
Great explanation on a seemingly simple piece of machinery
Hey, I forgot to say...
Looking forward to seeing you and Grant at The Offroad Games.
I think that it would be neat for Gage to be able to go with you two, to have the Laura Farms Crew there in full force.
Une bonne et heureuse Année 2025 à vous deux et votre famille et que tout vous soit agréable 🥰🥰
Very good video, actually have a friend who works for the local pivot company all of their stuff is repair work or new installation
Very hard working crew
I still like the "aliens from outer space" theory. Seriously, thanks for the video. It explains a lot to this east-coast guy about pivots. I've seen them while traveling through the midwest, now I know a lot more about them.
I appreciate you and thank you for making content.
hola Laura como esta mencata
sus video de maquinaria esto es otro nivel
If you can pivot the pivot, you could pivot the tiller wheel on a Ladder Truck in Boston.
That was a very.
Informative video...Thank-you... I do have a question for you.The old pivot, do you scrap it out at scrap medal pricing.. What happens to it?
Thank you so much Laura and Grant I have learned so much about something very far from my normal day from you and I am loving it. Had a question on this one - the remaining metal components, do they have any value as scrap?
YOUR GRANDPA IS LOOKING DOWN SMILING VERY PROUD OF YOU.
