    Hi Mike. Glad you were able to catch some of what we do here in Ontario. as farmers we are just as important to feeding the world as the US or any other country. I am glad that you are able to film and show this off. I farm in eastern Ontario about 5 hours East of these guys certainly not on that scale but still a part of providing and giving back.

    I love watching excavators running I did that for about 10 years moved on to driving bus and my wife drove bus and moved to operating commuter light rail trains, we live in the Portland Oregon area. We are retired now. Since March 27 with the virus lock down youtube and channels like yours have become very important to me. We work around our home and work on our hobbies so not much has changed but I sure hate tv but love farming, homesteading and channels like this real things being done in the world. Wonderful video.

    Great videos as always Mike!
    In my early and late teens I helped an Uncle farm in deep southern Alberta on his dry land farm. These videos are a true eye opener to the technological advancements in farming the past 30 years. It makes a person wonder how we did it back in those days. It really is amazing.
    Thanks for all the great videos Mike.

    I could just say fantastic video and fantastic operation in Canada over and over, but why -- it's so obvious and wonderful. O Canada! This is the first time I've truly appreciated the efficiency of the design of the more emphatically rectangular conical designs of the grain carts for fast in and fast out handling of the grain.

    • @LeFloop
      @LeFloop 6 лет назад +1

      Not a lot of dealer support up here unfortunately, and apart from the real big time operators you don't see many sub 1000acre farms needing anything over 250horse. Therefore a lot less demand for versatile tractors. I'm pretty interested in them, I think it's a good product, but our biggest tractor is only 200hp and again Hyde being our closest versatile dealer is 40 minutes away where we are only a few blocks from our nearest agco dealer. So really they have nothing that meets our needs.

      I’m from just outside Ottawa Ontario and there are a few versatile tractors in my area... also we had a 276 Vesatile
      BiDirectional on our family BEST loader tractor we have ever had. We had a 500 head beef herd at one point and were making 6x6.5 foot round bales that would weight anywhere from 2000- 2200 pounds which needed a gound heavy loader tractor. I also would use it on a large snowblower at the Ottawa International airport in the winter loved it for that with snow blower in front of you👍

    We've dealt with Hyde brothers a few times for implements and wagons, we're about 40 minutes north of Hensall. Good guys, they've always been good to work with. No versatile on our farm though, maybe if they built smaller tractors haha. Ontario is mainly row crop but you'll still see a lot of wheat because there's a good bit of livestock here, so it's good for rotation and the straw has a bit of value, and again for getting manure out in the summer.

    Quite a pile of corn to keep away from the combines. Seemed different seeing 20 inch rows. Fifty years ago when I was a student worker at OSU Farm Science Review we had comparison plots with 20, 30, and 38 inch rows. Over the years yield advantage for anything narrower than 30 inches was marginal in our growing region.

    I had no idea their was that much row crop that far north. 200 bu acre would be the talk of the town in south Texas. You're a hell of a farmer if you can average 100 here. Wonder what the temperature is during harvest up there? Not uncommon for 100 plus during harvest here. Most corn harvested early to mid July. Had horrible spring drought this yr. Most fields never saw a combine. Including mine. 2 weeks of 100+ temps just after pollination. Looked like you took a blow torch to the corn. Started raining in September and has not let up yet. Thus the reason i'm on here and not in the field. Thanks for sharing.
