SIDE DRESSING NITROGEN & SELLING GRAIN ON GRANDPA'S FARM! (ROLEPLAY) | FS25

Okay guys, welcome back to the grandpa series. We got going on the farm. If you guys need a little bit of background, grandpa passed away and we're taking over the farm. And so it's a little bit of a mess right now, a little bit unorganized. We've got the crop in the ground, but we don't have enough nitrogen for that crop. And we also have to spray it cause weeds are coming through. So goal of this video is to get everything like all cleaned up, organized in the shed. We got a whole grain into the elevator in the co-op. I've got to talk to Nate and see if he can get a sprayer out here and spray this. Cause I don't have one. And then I'm also going to see if we can side dress this with the co-op. Nate currently is the co-op manager and also farms. In case you guys don't know, his name is Fearsome Rhino on YouTube. We just purchased this 8310. And so what I'm thinking is none of these tractors are really the best for side dressing my 8410 and then 8650. So I'm hoping I can take off the duals and we can side dress without the duals. We'll take off the front duals, rear duals and pull a side dress bar from the co-op is my goal. Cause this crop still needs some nitrogen. So 8310 is fired up. I got to pull out the auger. We're gonna get the auger set up to pull out these bins. Basically I'm selling some beans right now just to get some, get a little bit of cash in the bank account. But I really needed a truck auger though. I got this long auger and it's like almost too long for unloading beans. It's really used to go in a bin. I really need a truck auger. Let me see if I got one here. And we definitely have some truck augers like right here. They're just expensive. I need to spend another 30K on it. I feel like I can get by with what I have for now. So we're gonna move the combine out of the way. This really needs to get cleaned up and get in the shed but we have not been organized the best. Yeah, for now I'm just gonna park combine there. Let's see if we can get this auger out. Let's see what I got from bushels here. There's nothing in here. I think there's, oh wait, nevermind. We got all of our corn in here. My beans are in these other bins over here actually. There we go. There's all my soybeans in that bin. Okay, got the auger here. We're filling there. I've kind of got this thing stuck in the trees but I think this should work. Pull the wagons around right here. There we go, we're filling, perfect. And I gotta make sure this auger keeps running cause it's stopped over here. There we go, we'll keep filling, perfect. This first wagon's gonna get full pretty quick and then we'll just fill up behind the second wagon. Really need to cut this tree down here. Turn on the hazards cause we're gonna take it off here in a sec. I could really be around three wagons cause I got another DMI and the 8310 could easily pull it. Okay, that one's full. We'll fill the second wagon. There we go. She is full. We are good to go. I am gonna take off down to the co-op. Nate should be there. Now, when I unloaded the co-op last video, I accidentally put it in grain storage instead of selling it. So I'm gonna make sure we do it correct this time but we'll get a check for that stuff we returned yesterday or we took to the co-op yesterday. Speaking of the devil, there's Nate. Well, if it ain't a ghost. Hey, it's been a while. It has been a while. Okay, so I heard you're general manager of this co-op. Oh yeah, I had it. Somebody had to take it over. Okay, so I really messed up, man. I put my beans yesterday into storage instead of selling them. Is there any way you guys could just sell them right now and I can get a check for it? Yeah, I've already looked up how much it is. I saw your text this morning. Perfect. You got some deer running around the co-op. Gosh dang, look at those guys go. There you go, 147,000. For two loads of beans? Yeah, that's how much the beans in the co-op were worth. So that's what we paying you. Perfect, perfect. There we go. How's the wife and kids doing? Kids growing like weeds, I tell you. Yeah, how's Daryl doing? Eating too much, playing too many video games. He's probably playing that farming similar game and American farming, probably just sitting on the couch all day. He should get off that stuff, man. It's not good for you. He needs to get outside. Yeah, I keep telling him to go outside and play football or something. He don't listen. Yeah, especially when his dad farms. He could be helping him at the co-op instead of playing farms all day inside. I don't get it. I don't get these kids nowadays. I don't get it. They'll go watch people on YouTube play farming simulator. It's wild. That is, you know, that's crazy. The kids just go watch other people play a video game. They could be playing themselves. Exactly, exactly. I don't get it. I don't either. Well, it looks like you got another load of beans. You want to go ahead and flip the tractor around, pull it through the scales and let's get a sample. Yeah, we'll get a sample quick. Moisture, these should be pretty dry and then we'll do that. It is going to be a tight fit through here, boys, but I think we got her. There we go. Pro be neat. A little bit, right there we go. Are you going to take one from each wagon? Yep, I have to. They yell at me if I don't. Yeah, back in the day, old Jerry, he used to stick all the wet beans in the back wagon because he knew the co-op girl would never check the back wagon. She only probed the front. He got away with a lot of crap back at the co-op, I remember. Everything's reading normal, so we should be good. Pull her around. Getting beans sold, pit one is a sell pit and then pit number two is storage pit, we're realizing. And there we go. Got another $18,000 there. Get weighed out and we should be good. Hey Nate, I'm going to go use the restroom quick while you weigh me out. No, no, no, I'm going to get back in there. Get your behind back in there, I know that trick. All right, you're good to go. Hey Nate, what do you got? I didn't get any anhydrous on at all. My corn crop has very little nitrogen on there. What do you got for side dress bars around here? Like, do you guys rent any out or anything? Oh yeah, that's the other side. Also don't have a sprayer, so I kind of need you guys to knock out my fields, at least with a post-pass. We got a pre-pass down and the pre's holding decent, but it's time to get that post on. Okay, for weeds, herbicide? Yup. Or are you wanting to do an insecticide as well or maybe like fungicides? No, we'll wait. We'll hold off on the fungicide for now. I just need a post-pass. You could probably just run some Realm Q, some Corteva product or something like that, just a post-pass, some astrogene maybe. All right, I'll look and see what we got. I know we got a majority roundup is what we have, but I'll just look around and see what we can kind of get. I'll also look at your weeds. So pretty much everything that's over here in these areas is all for rent. For what you're looking for though, we have these right here, the Nutramax. Yup, which is a 24, should be a 24 row, I think. I believe it is as well. I've never used her yet. She's brand new. We just bought her last year, so she's good to go. On top of that, we also do have some a little bit smaller. We got the Blue Jets over here. Hey, they're old and trustworthy. No, dude, I need to cover a lot of acres. We'll take the 24 row. All right, 24 row. Do you need the tractor as well or just the thing? I just need the bar. All right, so just the bar. We're not going to detach that one. Then we'll let you come over here and grab that one over there. Can I take, so I'm gonna need Liquid N. Can I rent one of these trailers also and we'll just fill it with Liquid N? We'll park it at the farmyard and then I can pull from this? Yeah. Yeah, you can do that. Okay. Depending on how much ground are you actually doing this year? Yeah, about 300 acres. 300 acres? Yeah, that should be plenty for 300 acres. I didn't know if you were running more like Buck is. Buck's running a good amount of acres and so is Austin, so we're renting them semi-truck trailers right now. Okay, yeah, that'll work good. I'm gonna come back with, I guess if you, yeah, I'll come back with the tractor. We'll fill the tape. I'll go ahead and get this full for you. Yep. So what we're probably gonna do is not charge you for the product right now. We'll charge you when you come back because we'll take back all the excess product and kind of prorate it. Perfect, perfect. That sounds good. I'm gonna get moving because we've got a lot of work to get done today. We'll see you, Nate. See you in a little bit. Okay, we're just getting back and then I'm gonna unhook these wagons and we've got more grain to sell. It's just I need to get this stuff side-dressed. This corn is getting to V7, V8. It's gonna be tough getting a tractor through here, guys. Okay, we're back at the co-op and I got the duals all taken off the 8310. Now, I did have to switch and buy and sell a tractor to get duals exchanged, so for some reason there's a window tent on this tractor and I can't figure it out, but same tractor. Basically, just had to do some switching so you might notice a couple things different. So we're gonna pull over to Nate and then he's got us all hooked up here. I guess I probably should have brought my truck, but that's fine. All righty, I got your thing, you ready to go. I got you 32% inside the tank here. Got you a couple extra totes as well if you need them. Perfect. Wanna just load this truck out. You should be good. I'm gonna let you take the whole truck and trailer combo. On top of that, of course, the Nutramax. How long do you think you're gonna need it for? Honestly? Probably a day or two. About two, well, we always ride like this, so we'll go ahead and ride it for three days just in case weather or something like that comes in. It gives you a little bit more time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that works good. I can't believe you're giving me the truck though, too, or letting me use the truck. Hey, everything here is for rent for the right price. Perfect. Even if you need to borrow me, I'm for rent. Ah, can you, I'm gonna go run this back. Well, I kinda need to ride back. Should have thought about this a little better. Go ahead and go to the bar. We'll just take both of these over there. Okay, I'll give you a ride back here. Okay, we are hooked up to the Nutramax. I'm in for the Nutramax, and we are rolling. Ready to go. I maybe should have been running duals on this tractor with it since it's got duals already, but boy, I can't even pull this thing. Come on, come on. That's not even full yet. I know, I don't know what is happening. Maybe I do need the duals on the tractor. It almost looks like the rear tires are barely touching the ground almost. I'm not sure what's happening. So what fields are you starting on? I'm gonna start around these home farms here is the goal. Well, yeah, how many cornfields do you have this year? I've got five different fields, so it'll be a bit. Okay, we're gonna give Nate a ride back, and then Nate, are you gonna start spraying some of these farms here? Yeah, I figured I'll let you go ahead and get a head start on the cornfields. So I'm gonna go start on your bean fields down south. So I kinda got everything kinda written up. I had some of the other guys go out and do some weed spotting in some of your fields to kinda see what your weeds look like. And looks like a little bit of water hemp is what we're mainly dealing with. Perfect, there you go, Nate. All right, I appreciate it, I'll be seeing you now. Definitely, we'll see you, Nate. Okay, guys, we're gonna start running some nitrogen and just see if we can at least get started with nitrogen here. I have no idea how this is gonna work, guys, so we're gonna get this filled up, though, see if this works. We definitely don't have the right hammer strap on the tractor. That's a little sketchy, but we'll be fine. So we're gonna get the nitrogen applicator filled up, pull around to her, we'll have a hose that connects to the back of it, and it gets her filled up here. Okay, we gotta figure out what's the right nitrogen value we wanna apply, and I think it's got it figured out already. I think we're gonna be good. Okay, oh my gosh, we already used everything we have in that tank there, I think. Pull around here, and we'll take from that tank also. Okay, let's see if we can get this to work here, guys. Like I said, we've got some ridiculously tall corn here, so we're gonna get the new Schmacks unfolded, see how this works. Oh my gosh, this is a pretty wild teal bar. Drop her down, turn her on. There we go, it's applying. Dude, this tractor doesn't have the horsepower to pull it. Ah, there we go. We should be able to pull this at least at like eight mile an hour, I feel like. Come on. And this corn is definitely way too tall. It's kind of funny and farm sim how the corn's literally tasseling right now, and it's only at like V8, maybe, and the corn already has tassels coming out of it. That's a little off. It's fine, though. Okay, we gotta stay on the row here. We are definitely knocking over corn with the 8110, guys. It's definitely too tall to go through here. It's doable, but it's probably too tall. Okay, we're working. We just almost need more horsepower. This is an 8310. It should be able to pull a 24 row, but it's almost like I need more. Horse, there we go. We can run at nine mile an hour there, perfect. We are running. I'm running auto-steer right now. Everything's working pretty good. The only thing is it's a little slow-paced. It'd be nice to have a little bigger tractor. We're going right down the row. We are side-dressing, applying the right rate, and then if I pull up my menu here while we're going. So there's our nitrogen application, perfect. That looks good. Looks like we're doing it right. We're going around the field, getting her done. So that works good, perfect. We're rolling. We've got our Raven that's connected to it. It's got our speed here. And then we got our copy track in case I plant with this tractor. Got our 4640 display. Oh yeah, we are rolling. The only thing is I've got a bunch of UAN in this truck here and for some reason I was only pulling from the tanks. I wasn't pulling from this tank here. So I'm going to see maybe I need to flip it around so I can fill up that side dress bar more. I'm not fully sure. When it makes it, when that bar makes it, because I've got AI working around that now, but when that bar makes it another lap around the field, I'm going to pull this truck up and see if we can't get that, see if we can get that bar all the way full. We're rolling good though. We are side-dressing, that's for sure. Rolling good, pulling a little slow when we go up hills, but everything's, boy, it's rolling smooth. We're knocking out acres pretty quick with this. We've got basically field 18, 17, 16. Okay, we've got to get putting away some of these tractors here, guys. We got to get these in storage because the farm's kind of unorganized right now. So we're going to pull in 8650, get this pulled in, and then we'll pull in the 8410. Actually, this sounds crazy, guys, but what I may do is while I'm side-dressing with the 8310, I might put this tractor on the wagons and haul on some beans with this. This sounds a little crazy, but it's definitely a little overkill, but it'll work. We're not going that far to the co-op, so it'll work just fine. So for now, I may actually just leave this tractor out right here. 8410, we get fired up. The field cultivator backed up here, and then we'll get this unhooked. There we go, and for now, I'm just going to put the 8410 in the shed here just to get everything kind of organized, put away. The nice thing about two tracks is, boy, you can just really whip around here. Back this in the corner. I can't fit the combine in the shop, and I'm hoping I can fit it in here because this is going to be the only shed. Yeah, oop, this is going to be the only shed that the combine can go in. I got the other gleaner, and the gleaner might fit in the shop shed, but we're going to be a little tight on equipment storage here. Right there should be good. With the gleaner fired up, for now, I'm just going to put both combines in the shed, guys. That's what I got to do. There we go, and then we'll get the 1086 put away in the shop here, and then I got to check on that side dress bar and make sure everything's going good here. We're still rolling with that. We are still rolling. Side dress bar is still going. Putting down oxygen. Yes, everything's working good. Perfect. We're getting part of the field done. We are going to keep rolling on that. Anyways, guys, this is going to be the end of the video. Hopefully, you guys are enjoying it. Oh, shoot, the AI worker's blocked. Hopefully, you guys are enjoying it. I'm going to keep rolling with videos now that farming's done. I've got some tiling coming up, but I'm going to try and keep rolling, pumping out farm sim videos, American farming videos, all that. Thanks for watching, guys, and I will see you guys in the next one. Thanks, guys.
