Amazed a machine of that size and cost isn't completely self greasing

Damn u haul ass threw those fields

I am on the red side, but it is a similar story in southwestern Indiana. There was a two store dealer that sold out to a large dealer about four or five years ago. For a period of time Nothing changed, but as time is went on most of the original store owners people have moved on and been replaced by new people that part I have mixed feelings about. There is one single store dealer a county over, but I know that in time he will be bought these big companies like John Deere case IH do not want single store dealers in their network. They want these large dealers because they can control the prices and like you said you have less options where the world I don’t like it either but it is the way it is here as well.

That new case Steiger quad track is a beast.

Saturday. 94 is rolling through. Might get rowdy @ Burger King. For sure @ The Moose. Public Service announcement.

The sweet corn radio brings back memories. Years ago we put a radio out tune to a local news station. Went out the next morning the coons had changed the channel, do a rock and roll station.😮

We lost our local John Deere dealership 20 years ago it was started in the 30s.Owned by the same family.Was sold to quality equiptment most deere dealers in Sc, NC and Va are Quality.Dont like them. As for your fiber you dont up to the roadway there a right of way depending who owns the rd ,cam be 25 to 50 feet from center of roadway on each side of the rd, but if look at the surveys its survey to the center of the rd you pay tax on that right of way but the township or state can do what they want with it no matter what you say.

Thank Joe for that fiber installation.

There is a JD dealer at the Frania exit fairly close to you.

Running fiber through the Rural Electric Act

Sometimes, we have to do what’s best for the soil, may not be the most profitable but, the most responsible. Sloans is growing into a monster-they’ve bought-up virtually all of my local JD dealerships.

Dont know whos doing the fiber but as a utility worker we have a 6ft easement on all pole lines or ditch lines everywhere. Basic utility rights

Tell Uncle Chris to slow down, he's running the wheels off of things! Crops are looking good.

Johndeere is a woke joke anymore all they care about is keeping the stock price up and the shareholders happy. They got everyone by the balls that invested fully into the Deere ecosystem. Alot of farmers wouldn't care about switching colors of equipment, its the technology side that would be hard to completely re adjust to a new system.

Andy, great video!

I’m glad to see you guys planted some Beck’s out there!

I thought mirivas neo rate was 13.7 Oz an acre, are you seeing a benefit from 17 Oz and where did this recommendation come from?

Best way to keep unwanted guests out of sweet corn is 12ga or 20ga never had a unwanted guests come back

Radios provide a nice background noise for the raccoons to dine to lol. Hair clippings don't work either. Hot fence is best or a dog.

Hopefully they will be better than what happen to our JD dealers. Hutson bought out most of the JD dealers and service has gone to hell. We still have others that we can deal with but are not as close.

I always wait till 100 psi is built up before pushing in any brake buttons

Ag pro owns most of John Deere dealerships around me and they are terrible.

The boom on those fendt sprayers are super weak

Hey, First right-way they don't need permission to do it. Second this presidents Biden's infrastructure rural internet project. The money was collected over 10 years ago but never used you can do a lot with those fiber cables. The money is part of the universal fee that you pay on your phone bill plus they're updating all the utility poles in lines and stuff does GOP has been blocked in it for years why I don't know because the money's there it's designated for that project

Good luck with fiber being ran! They went through just about what seemed like every gas line in our town… as a volunteer fire fighter it got old getting called to them hitting another line

Sunday the one in casey still has alliance on the sign, building had sloans, kinda shocked sign wasn't done

Neighbor planted some rye on outside edge of 3 fields 2 beans nother one had something for corn, can still spot it to a t, slowed down dramatically compared to where was conventional tillage

I think was to dry in May when they were posted for March beans, going to be a losing battle with waterhemp I'm sure. I think 3 weeks will be worse lots of stuff there we can't see yet I'm sure

Mother Deere is pushing the small dealerships out going to be less competition

Last week John Deere announced they are moving ALL manufacturing to Mexico. !

The consolidation is happening here in New Zealand as well, from what I've heard jd wants there to only be a handful of dealers worldwide, it seems they've chosen Brandt to have all the dealerships in nz. They are already half the way there. And I've heard nothing good about customer service from the dealerships that have been taken over by brandt. I think eventually it will end badly for jd, lots of people have already turned to fendt

That Fendt sprayer is the same as 1050 Fendt. You run a Fendt you would trade the John Derees . Way better tractors .

Typical RoGator,,,,, they are cheap for a reason, the booms wear out and come apart. I tried one, and after the first year and about 25,000 acres. Boom had cracks all over it. Would t warranty it. I deep sixed it and went back to a Deere and now I have the carbon fiber booms. Had them two years and not a problem one. They may or may not have had high speed impacts with the ground,,,, I’ve planted cover crops since the late 90’s. You’re right, there is give and take. It’s does put you behind. Especially on a dry year. However, you are a hundred percent right, the organic matter pays off. I won’t quit doing it. But I quit using rye. It gets too big and rank some years, so I only plant beardless wheat, and hit it with burn down before it heads out. On the dealership, in my lifetime it’s happened to me 3 times. First was a family owned dealership my dad and granddad dealt with. They sold out to High Plains which was a monster. They ended up closing down and selling off several stores including ours. But two brothers bought it 15 years ago and it’s better than ever. Change is inevitable and nothing stays the same. Roll with it Marty! If they don’t treat you right, you have options. Just don’t let your boy fall for that imitation green and red wheels!

Andy, Illinois passed a law providing eminent domain to internet providers to all right of ways where existing power lines exist. They don't have to ask or even notify. The provider Conexes (?) done all of Casey, Greenup and Toledo without any notifications. The City of Casey threw a fit and tried to stop them to no avail. The law is called (I think) Connect Illinois.

We got fiber internet. Can’t afford 125.00 a month for it.

John Deere going full woke must be counting on queer farmers to keep the profits up

I think Sloans needed to make a move because they have been sliding down the size rankings. Without a doubt Deere has been pushing for all this consolidation, and Deere decides who gets to expand. It's getting hard to be a Deere loyalist given how they are treating the customers.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts 😊

Buring cable for years. There are easements on all your ground. 99% of the time it's telephone poles to roadway. On every piece of ground in the USA

They don’t need your permission. It’s an easement. For as much as you talk I’d think you’d know that.

Happy birthday to you’re son

Here in upstate NY, jd dealership are being ate up by large ones. Now u can buy a lawn mower from any store but tractors can be only purchased by areas. No way to get better prices, the big get bigger and we the consumer have to eat it if you're loyal to the brand.... Just wrong

Andy if that was a big crow it could have been a raven

In ND , utilities can run lines in the road right-of-way without land owner permission. Some sort of state law allows it.

Andy you said you game? What are you playing these days?

Thirty years ago, the home farm where I live now, was farm #2 at the then ASCS office in Bremer County Iowa. Dad was pretty proud of that. We have since combined the farm and the neighboring farm when we purchased it. Then a new farm number was issued to us. Dad was disappointed to lose that #2.

I went thru chemo last yr for AML and now yesterday had to take our dog from glen carbon animal hospital to U of I small animal clinic to find out he has cancer. We are looking at shutting down spraying on our farm and either going back old school farming or just take it out of production and grown native grasses or trees. My 6430 came from sloans up your way

I buy sweet corn from a local farmer who has a farm stand and his corn is the sweetest I have ever eaten.

G’job Andy, hate to see ma and pa businesses of any kind go away. Hope little man has a good Bday…take care and keep em comin 🇺🇸

I think John Deere has encouraged, pressured perhaps, consolidation of dealer ownership for some time now. Such consolidation happened several years ago here in southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina.
