As a farmer who has a Master's degree, thanks for showing farming in a positive light and showing the science behind it. So many suburbanites look down on farmers as dumb, but to run a farm today requires both scientific and business knowledge, as well as work ethic and a lot of common sense.

@joshuadoll9000
@joshuadoll9000 2 роки тому
@@Rhaegarion you don’t know why the crew was hired. Many farmers do put up their own bins, but it requires man power. This guy looks like he’s pretty small time so he probably doesn’t have any employees and it’s pretty tough to find labour in a lot of places. On a separate note, he could have been busy and not had time to erect the bin so it just worked out better to hire a crew. Some companies that sell these bins mandate that they are the ones to assemble them as well. You don’t know.

@Mass Debater Or you can look at it this way, without these farmers growing crops so efficiently to the point of overproduction in some seasons, we won't have the luxury to develop rocket science. Just look at third world countries. They're too preoccupied with survival. Agriculture is what built this modern society. We'd still be hunting without that vast knowledge. Notice that we've sent thousands of rockets to space and yet we're just starting to farm there. It ain't rocket science but it's another beast nonetheless.

Always like coming back to this video. I work in grain management so it's cool to see this side of it so close up. I handle things AFTER harvest. Once the grain is in the bin, I monitor temperature and moisture and make sure fans are running (or not) when called. Trying to get the grain to target moisture for shipping or storage through the winter. Every now and then I get to go out to a site and troubleshoot the monitoring system, which is pretty cool to see, but I haven't seen much of what goes on before harvest in person. Thanks for these videos!

fun fact - the moisture tester at 11:20 is actually just a capacitor, with one plate on the underside of the lid, and one plate at the bottom of the canister. when the canister is filled, the grain acts as a dielectric, and all other necessary info remaining constant (distance between the plates, type of grain used, etc.), water's presence changes the extent to which a given grain acts as a dielectric within the capacitor, which is how you get the moisture readout 🌺

They barely turn a wrench anymore because time spent working on their equipment is time not spent finding the best people to do the job.

Spring is when the manure gets spread, Summer is when the hay gets mowed and Fall is when the corn gets cut. When I first moved to my house a farmer with a team of mules came by the house in the Spring and asked what I thought of the "smell" of the manure, I breathed in and said what smell? His response was "you"ll do just fine" I have carried that with me the 37 yrs. i have been lucky to live here.

@SundownFarms
@SundownFarms 4 роки тому
@@eloidumas4067 It always good to take time to learn the true. To be honest there are definitely problems with modern farming. Most grain farmers rely on rain alone and don't have irrigation so the water usage is not that high. We also don't use a lot of electricity most of the year. Many farmers in the area are actually putting in solar fields. Fossil fuel usage is moderate. Our big machines definitely drink diesel but 2/3 of the year they are parked. Probably the biggest problem modern farming has is chemical runoff specifically nitrogen. Most farmers apply too much nitrogen fertilizer at the wrong time and much of it ends in the ocean. Most farmers don't know that is a problem though and the chemical dealers push for over application. Another big problem is erosion and soil loss. Farmers are just being made aware of the problem though. Cover crops and soil building are at the forefront of every ag expo. Don't believe the media though. No farmer is trying to destroy the land or the environment. We make our living exclusively off the land. We would be the first to suffer if it was destroyed. Most of the problems farming has is due to a lack of education. Another thing is most farms are family owned and operated and we are proud to have it that way. Most of the regulations just drive family farms under and promote corporate farms. All us farmers are just doing the best we can. Thank you for asking! I appreciate the interest.

I'm all about soil building! Have you heard what a wonderful ally fungus is for environmental health? The mycelium growing underground is so fine, there's up to 8 miles in just a cubic inch. This web of hyphae is so strong, it can grip soil and keep it from washing or blowing away. Another thing that helps is moisture content, which fungus is adept at sustaining. It breaks down forest litter like twigs and leaves into water, nutrients and cold CO2. Cold CO2 doesn't typically fly up into the atmosphere and assist the greenhouse effect. It stays near the ground where it can return to the plant food cycle almost immediately. Paul Stamets from WA can tell you so much more about it, I'm halfway through his book Mycelium Running and it has been a huge inspiration. Mark Shephard from WI also has a ton of fascinating material on STUN: Strategic Total Utter Neglect. Let the natural order guide your farm to success!

Fascinating. I grew up in Iowa, where my grandfather and several uncles all had farms. From birth thru college, I spent tons of time on those farms. Your soy bean harvesting, storage and sales coverage brought back some great memories. My grandfather’s bins did not have that rotating auger underneath. So when we were emptying a bin, the center of the beans would quickly draw down, forming a cone. Because it didn’t have that auger, the sides of the cone had to be manually knocked down to keep the process going. Believe it or not, I recall working around the inside perimeter of those bins, with a couple of my cousins, to kick down the sides toward the center cone. I was maybe 12 or 13. In hind site it was definitely dangerous, but we were only doing the same things our fathers did, growing up on that farm. All that said, the grain bin construction footage was new to me; I’ve never seen one built. Given my upbringing and the fact I’ve been a professional civil engineer (P.E.) for over 35 years, I particularly enjoyed this part of your video. That jacking process is a genius solution to building higher and higher without a crane or major scaffolding. Great stuff; love your channel! Keep doing what your doing!

You tighten down the cap until the plunger has enough pressure it pushes a rod through the center of the cap to flush. Then you select your variety of grain and hit test.

We have even verified this concept, as our group (Humasol) engineered a cheap version of this tool.

Banning the right to repair doesn't make sense for multiple reasons. It's an attempt to monopolize the maintenance market but is ultimately unenforceable and goes against the philosophy of fair trade. It's also only observed in top economies. Emergent economies don't even consider placing such limitations on already sold products. Voiding a product's warranty after the customer repairs it is acceptable and is also the limit a producer has the right to pursue it. They are essentially banning you from their own repair facilities which is fine. Once companies start rigging products to break (actually happens) courts will ultimately side with the consumers. So don't worry about the right to repair folks, it's never going to go away.

Great episode! I work as a land steward enforcing conservation easements for a land trust in northern Ohio. I pass grain bins every day I'm in the field. I've been curious about the engineering and mechanics that go into those grain bins, and now I know. BTW, I recently had the opportunity to ride with one of our landowners while he was combining corn. Fascinating!

I really didn't think that would need an explanation but you've surpassed my expectations.

Finally something I know. I work in the AG industry and early on I put up grain bins for the first 3 summers. That was 20 yrs ago. Hard work. Farming is all me and my family knows.

As a southern man, and an engineer, it’s really good to know who you are talking to and how to communicate with them best. Slapping that twang on my words helps me get my points across when they are needed. Also, good to have a good phone voice and an email “voice”. Communication is one of the very few things we have that makes the biggest impact on other people. It’s good to have some range.

Sorry this is bugging me, but I need to make a minor change -Farming- Farms are the backbone of America|human civilization. Farming is an action and I'm just not of the belief that an action could function as a backbone for physical objects. However, please do share anything that could change my mind - because for some things, being wrong about something is way more desirable than being right. (Also farms are more likely related to the digestive system rather than the skeletal system as they both, in a way, convert unusable/unsuitable energy into a usable form of energy. Unfortunately, saying farms are the stomach of civilization doesn't have that same oomph factor and could potentially mislead people to think farms are related to hunger/satiety rather than energy conversion. Not criticizing anyone, just writing this for anyone that likes this kind of critical analysis of thoughts.).

I use to be a conditioning operator at Pioneer, seeing all this reminded me of all the times of sampling, dumping, and then cleaning loads of beans. You don't realize how much goes into taking a raw load of beans from a grower and "cleaning" them to be packaged to be sold to farmers for the next season. I will say I hated doing wheat the most, it got everywhere and always left you with a huge cloud of dust and you coughing the rest of the day. One of my favorite parts was talking to each grower and seeing how heavy their trucks were when they pulled up and wondering how their tires didn't just blowout under that massively over-the-limit load.
