    You are always Daddy to your daughter. This will be proven only a few times after a certain age, so be ready when it comes, and just enjoy it. If you crow, it will disappear! But it is always there. I am 66, my Daddy has died, and nothing ever will fix that, but I had him a long time, so I am blessed.

    Mark , where have you been ? My grandson and I have been looking forward to your new video . This year has been a tough one . I live in Northeast Ohio and there is so much corn and beans still standing . It seems like everyone is breaking equipment , and we have had so much rain the fields are muddy . Ian not surprised to see your yields are good . You are a smart farmer , who puts a lot of time an effort into his crops . You reap what you sew . Glad to see you back I always enjoy listening to you .

    Uncle farms/owns about 180 acres. He rents two 50acres pieces. We are small time in comparison to you. 90% of his corn is in. Thankfully. We don't have dryer set-up like you have. Anything that is too wet, we take to the old co-op dryer. They dry it for us but knocks our price down BOO. Uncle said try a stadium heat seat in your combine, warm tush warm you LOL. One other thing don't make popcorn in dryer. Co-op did that several years back, whole town smelled like it needed butter and salt. Best of luck

    Combine monitors are fooling everyone this year they don’t compensate for test weight so if you have 51 or 52 pound corn that knocks yields down pretty decent still a good yield don’t get me wrong but there’s no way there’s as much corn across this country as what the USDA says when everyone’s saying test weights 3-5 pounds lower than normal

    Gday Mark from Northern Australia. Here's a clip of the world's biggest air seeder. It was made by the Zell family for their family owned grain farm here in Australia. It's 214ft long and pulled by a Baldwin tractor that looks a lot like a Big Bud. If you are wondering about those annoying trees in the middle of the field, well, Australia has brought in some really wacky vegetation laws and we aren't allowed to cut them down...preserving large blocks of virgin remnant vegetation Imagree with but single trees in the middle of a field......madness.
