Hey thanks for watching the video!
My father died in an accident, so I love seeing your Dad in your videos! He reminds me of my Dad! I love your whole family! I’m still waiting for Mirium to start a cheese making channel 😂 please stay safe and always be awesome 😎 I hope all Neline’s critters are doing well 🐐
I like seeing your Dad in the vids.... I think he is getting more comfortable with being filmed.
Drill a bunch of holes in the side of a 5 gallon bucket, not in the bottom and then put the pump in the bucket
Yes I've done that in the past, works great.
Alas, it will take less than an hour for the cows to figure out how to pick pick up that bucket and carry or drag it along through the paddock. They are both curious and incredibly destructive!
To keep the wood chips, mixed in the flooding water, away from the pump wheel, I put a woven sack around the pump. The darned chips were floating in from above the bucket. Yes, it was deep 😱
I was going to say the same, but a washtub.
That’s a great idea.
😅😅😅😅 great job on the video from the drone at the end of the dairy at that time of the day thanks a lot🎉🎉🎉👍👍👍❤❤❤
The overhead shot makes everything make so much more sense relationally
Allowing that big manure pile to compost is a good idea .. turning it every few months will reduce the volume .. it will make a great mix on those sandy fields ..
Great drone footage!
Barns look super cool lit up in the dark
Make sure you flip the compost pile around July or August to speed up breaking down the hemp bedding.
Great awesome video Jan , the hill will be over the fence soon ,
Very interesting video Jan. Keep up the good, hard work.
Hi Jan, I wish you had a compost turner it would turn the coral waste into black magic in three weeks. You could use the loader it just takes longer build a windrow two meters high let sit for four days to heat up then start turning bottom to top, turn next when temperature gets
back to around 60c the process is finished when row starts not reaching max temp. Cheers 🇦🇺
Loved seeing the barn at dusk with the lights. So pretty
That last bit of fun with dad yippy
Hemp straw or not, that manure will break down over time and spread nicely in a year or two. One tip, work the pile with the loader every couple of months, will help aerate which will improve the breakdown process. (Good practice for wanna-be-loader-operators).
congrats on 200k
Need a new Flag.That prairie wind is beast.
Thanks Jan for the new episode. This is the working life of the rancher!! It is what it is... 🙄
Yan. You need a new Canadian flag on top of the grain leg. Only half there.
I have run loaders for 45 years you are doing and you are doing great job
Great video brother from the imperial county California 🇺🇲👍
GOOD JOB!
I can’t tell if it’s a Chevy or a GMC, but that truck sure gets worked well. The true essence of a farm truck!
That's a serious amount of doo-doo to handle! 😉 I would love to know some back story on how your parents chose Sask to settle in when they came here??
Awesome content as always Jan!! 👍👍
Maybe his father would do an interview.
Yan , in few decades , you will be farming fields full of plastic . You need to be removing the net wrap off the bales before shredding them . They dont decompose - i keep finding them in manure and in the fields after years of them being burried in soil , and they are as good as new .
Othervise love your vids , greetings from Czechia .
Couldn't agree more, no good for the animals too. Great video .
Whoever invented plastic should have to clean up that mess in the Indian Ocean 😡
Page Cole Sonne...grew up doing ditch work/ water draining
Very cool drone shots 😎
Cows are curious animals. I had a heifer i bottle raised then became a pet cow for the next 20 plus yrs and whenever i was working in the field she had to have her nose right in the middle of what i was doing. I think it's time to get another one. 😊
great job!!!
I am guessing Mother nature is messing with your game plan right now. In the end the much needed moisture will be good though. My old yard used to go under water every spring and I would spend a couple weeks trying to pump it out. I had the same problem with debris clogging the pump until I made a screener basket and put the pump inside it. Something bigger with chicken wire wrapped around and then one of your old hammer mill screens around the pump itself inside that might do the trick.
Love seeing a dump truck taking a massive dump. Great video as always. thanks.
Sure looks like you could make some very nice compost!
Maybe you just discovered a LT process of coral cleaning that increases efficiency? Do it this way every year hemp or not. Then haul the previous year's pile to the field. Added benefit is the manure breaks down into a more stable form? Just thinking out loud.
You need to pick up a 3500 or 5000 gal vacuum manure tank anytime time you have standing water in the corals it would be a quick run through them to suck up the water it would really help dry them out, you could then also use it in the fall and drive right into your big pit and suck it down further then your pump will get.
You need a decent size trash pump 3 inch. That would suck all that crap out. Wet here in the northeast. Looking forward to a little less rain here. Have a good one
That is a great idea!!!
That is quite the operation. I come from a small family farm a few decades ago.
Good job guys
GOOD AFTERNOON
Hmm, One thing you could consider would be having a tile plowed into your corrals to drain the water our when the ground starts defrosting. Not sure how deep your frost is this time of year. Could help
I enjoy watching you operate the big loader. brings back lots of memories of the last ten years before retiring from the Railway.
The mobiles were much bigger and could pick up 70,000 lbs Oversea Containers 20's footers up to 48 footers and easy to tip over OH YA.
been thinking about drainage on your yards - should drain to the back away from the feed trough - scoop along the back only.
The cows are saying they think conditions are horrendous this time of year - they are right
New flag needed!!
Friesland flag would be nice touch.
Good job,Jan
Would you be able to build French drains out the back of the pens to remove water?
I was wondering if a long-term plan could be to gently slope each paddock toward the center. Then in spring, it would almost develop into a small creek running through the center of all the paddocks to the end, there you could lead it to a holding pond or even pump it into the manure lagoon.
Have to keep it a very gentle slope, so cows don't slip. Also make sure that where the creek goes under the fence between paddocks that there is no way for a cow to get caught there or to escape under the fence into another paddock.
Would be some work, but might be a pretty natural, maintainable way to improve drainage in the outside paddocks.
Wow thats a very big job and gonna be a very big pike of manure
you need a small tow behind scraper load haul manure out an bring sand back so you can fill it back up so its not a lake
Get a bucket slice strips out of it and use broken hammer mill screens to line the inside. Also seen this done with pipe and feed tubs.
get old hammermill screen to set around pump
Time for a new Canadian flag at the top of the silos.
😂 Where’d the other half go??! 😂😂😂 💨 💨 🇨🇦
nice video. thank you
Oops, Why haul out the bedding mound? Just haul out the slop around the mound and lightly cover the mound with straw. The cows stay high and dry and you use less bedding. You also haul out less dirt. If the mounds get too high after a year or two carve them down a bit. Worked well for us in our feedlot in Idaho.
Lake lota Hockey!
Ferdinand likes being chased 😊…not in heat but, ya know *blush*
Ugh; memories of last week; at least it wasn’t corral “water”…Mistress of the Extension Cord; yay, Mirjam!...ooooo, bright and lively tiger; bright blues…if it did not “fall out the back,” Ex lax would help…technique, patience, and skill - preferred…What does a windbreak do? Break wind!…“Slip sliding away; slip sliding away; ya know the nearer your destination, the more you’re slip sliding away”…“don’t let the sun go down on me!”…no Dukes of Hazzard…“let it rain down, let it rain down on me”…night Raptor; holy shredded man!; good dub
That pump you used on the corral probably isn't a good fit for that use and likely would be called a sump pump (only for water) - May want to try an ejector pump which is made for pumping sewage, something with a 2" diameter outlet would be nice. That should do it.
How about a Canadian flag metal weather vane on the grain leg?
Ok, all you metal craftsmen and craftswomen, get busy making that 😅
Good video.
A easy trick I use with my pump est it in a milk crate keeps most of stuff out. As substitute you could go to a store that has crafts should be able to get one similar.
use the lagoon pump to pump out the corral
It can’t handle the straw - it’s liquids only. Great idea, though! The lot of us viewers can solve this problem - keep your thinking cap on!!
looks like the topography (on camera anyway) is slopping to the bale yard. ?
two gates per corral / in and out
5 gallon pail bunch of 1/4" holes. Put the pump inside
I understand you guys are pretty flat out there...but is there any way to bury a tile across the front of the corrals to help with drainage? Like putting tile in a field?
i'm having to work/live in a kind of cage because of furious, non-stop efforts to clean up much around me. i know you know your video describes what you and others must contend with. but there are no dairy cows around me--tho such a mess none the less. moreover,progress around me is "too slow to notice," really...nothing like your quick, accurate work! as for your failed water pump: i'd weld a box, 4 feet per edge, and put the pump inside--with large custom-made filters....
What a beautiful place you have . WOW!!!!!
How many cows do u have ??!! Or u rather not say???God bless !!,❤️🙏🇺🇲
He's said many times. 🐮
@@GAF19577 guess I missed it!!;;😞
@@phyllishalley8972
I'm going to say 320 Milking Cows.
@@GAF19577ty .. looks like a lot more😊
@@phyllishalley8972 In total they typically have between 750 to 1,000 head of cattle. Including all the calves, heifers, dry cows and steers.
say question for you. How ome you dont use grapple bucket loader when loading manure ?
Cows are curious.
Growing up on a small farm I noticed our herd gathered at one spot near a brushy area...
My dad said , its probably a snake .
I went out to see h it turned out to be a plastic bag caught in the brush..
They spent 10 minutes watching & sniffing a plastic bag.
Like everyone's dad telling the kids what to do. Especially when it's a crappy job. Lol
I think it's time for another freestall barn for the dry cows and heifers. Payback time is very short because of less straw and a lot more labour efficient
Need a Gas Trash pump 2” hose!
Finally spreading some solid poo. Woohoo!
❤❤❤❤
Get a 5 gallon bucket and cut slots in it and put the pump in the bucket
Jan, now that you have learned more about the downsides of using the Hemp Straw, will you guys be using it in the future?
Are you guys gonna use that hemp straw again
why houl out the bedding mound? Just haul out the slop around the mound and lightly
EA Excellent video Yun,, ,Your dad's the GOAT btw 👌👌👏
Wrap a window screen around it and use a hanger
🇨🇦😊
Time for a new flag atop the whatchyamacallit! Instead of a fabric flag install a metal one!
Sask is at the north pole. If its not snowing its fixing to start
Sounds like my kind of weather! 🥶
Best laid plans of mice and men.
7:45 huh, those heifers gonna turn that into bricks for you
WOW...... that is a sloopie mess !!! Shame you can't go from corral to field, but you do what you have to do.
You need a manure bucket. A straight cutting edge is the least a efficient bucket to use!!!
👍🏻🇨🇦🤟🏻
What’s happened to your flag on top of the grain leg? You must have had some crazy Canadian winds, great video dude 🇨🇦🏴
Have tried a gas powered trash pump? They're used to pump solid shit by sewer deptments doen here in New York.
Are there any microbes that are known for breaking down hemp faster that you could sprinkle in to speed up hemp breaking down?
👍👌❤️🇨🇦
Do you and your friends ever play mud football in the corrals after you chase out the cattle?
There are serrated sump pumps on the market that may work better for that pen.
Why not just mix the straw pack into the slop to sop it up then haul it all away?
It has just a dirt floor or is there cement underneath the dirt
I think it's just dirt. The cost of a cement floor for the whole 8 paddocks would be tremendous!
Looks like your in Louisiana
Is it not easy er to bild al barn
small vac tank
You need a new Flag on you Silo's
try playing dance music when the heifers are tromping in the hemp manure
That straw pile looks so dry it's a good thing it didn't start on fire!
Somebody should call some animal protective services to that farm. Im pretty sure that the outside animals are living in a very bad condition, atleast here in the eu we dont have stuff like that for sure
There are feedlots in Europe. They're just not as common as they are here in North America. They take good care of their outdoor cattle. They provide dry bedding every time that it rains, or snows. Which is very costly.
Wellcome to spring on the Canadian prairies. We had a fair amount of snow in the last month of winter. Then we had unseasonably warm temperatures which caused a very fast melt. When that happens the ground underneath is still frozen so the moisture cannot soak in and all sits on top creating conditions like you see now. A week ago we had no snow and I was thinking of planting potatoes. This week we got another snow storm and now again the ground is covered in 8 inches of new snow. Next week is supposed to be + 17 C so the process will repeat itself. I would guess 90 % of the livestock in the prairies live outside 365 days of the year winter and summer and do just fine. If you provide a wind break they can handle - 40 C. Very few farms other than dairy’s have barns anymore so housing animals like they do in the EU is not an option.
Typically Heifers... They are aaaaalways interested on anything in the world😂
Nice video, keep on man
Greets from Germany
Rather than a sump pump, use a trash pump.
Have a grapple on your bucket would be a lot nicer to
