Ideal combine

Acres farmed I meant

They are very cagey about that, I noticed somebody ask in a comment on Instagram and Chet said "we don't disclose that" or something similar.
There is an uncle involved too, but never see him.

More to the point, I end up with serious workshop envy every time I see that setup!

I like Larsen farms to watch, good mix of stuff and as you say great workshop. Larsen, Millenial and welkers for me, with Keith fenner and Abom79 for some machining

Whilst we're on about you tubers, anyone know what sort of area larson farms work over? Never heard them talk about it

As others have said they dont say due to personal reasons. Probably a mix of owned, rented and perhaps some land farmed for others under contract perhaps. To have a combine the same size as the Millennial Farmer and then an S790 on top of that plus that grain setup, 3 quadtracks and trucks etc I would say they are covering a good 6-7k acres at least.

Google Larson Farms. It says they farm 6500 acres.

Of course Tom's Case was on demo, he didn't try to hide it did he?
Think his new mower is too and I'm guessing he had some help with the new tyres on the Hurlimann?
Millennial Farmer gets loads of deals too, he makes money off social media, that's why his wife is basically his agent and editor.

Mike's is a bit more casual and he does have to pay for some demo's and he does have a patreon account.
They may start it for fun but it ends up very time consuming, so they should make something from it. It's still better than TV.

The reason I say 'demo' is because it's not really a 'demo' if you have it for 4 months and aren't allowed to give an open and honest review. It's advertising.

you are absolutely correct to a point. The manufacturers and providers of all types of products and services are well aware of this new very cheap form of advertising, costs them very little and yet these social influencers are making huge sums by the side advertising revenue they pick up every time someone hits on their site.

These influencers are certainly not giving free un biased advice, as they know they will instantly lose the perks from the manufacturer if they do not enthusiastically endorse the product. Some companies blatantly pay these influencers particularly in the service industry and as noted elsewhere in the education industry.
The very worse form is in the financial services where people are being directed straight to sites where they can and often do lose very large sums of money.
This type of advertising in the agricultural industry , whilst devious and probably illegal in any countries is aimed at a mature audience which should be able to judge the nature of the product sold and its ultimate value.
It is quite likely that this farmer actually only in reality has a few acres and the playing about you see, is a blend of material using library footage combined with actual scenes shoot from multiple angles to give the impression of scale

To be honest it seems little different to the machinery tests etc in farm publications as they are not rip into a machine even if it is justified as then it is rather unlikely that they we'll be given any other equipment.

That is one thing I do respect about One Lonely Farmer he doesn't do advertising like that and actually ripped into a lubricant company who asked him to when they said he couldn't use any other products even have them in shot unless and had to have the videos approved by them he especially when they had barely given him enough for a day least of all a month that he could give an honest opinion.

He did get given some baler twine but he was up front and said so he then when he gave a first impressions of it said that he wouldn't say you should go out and buy it but he was going to by a lorry load next year so he could try it for a season and see how it worked and if he liked it enough to switch. From what was said it sounded more as though the company was less interested in videoing it and more purchasing it himself due to how much he goes through.

I’ve been watching them from the beginning. I really like how Chet is in front of the camera. His dad and the big swede are also good. On one of the videos it was said 5,000 acres. Half is beans and half corn. It might of grown a bit since maybe but it definitely was mentioned. No idea which video it was though.

I see the idea 10 has turned up at mike Mitchell

Just skimmed through it quickly, he said driving down the road you can only hold onto the bottom of the steering joystick, surely it should alter sensitivity with speed automatically?

probably I'm going to say he wont like it they do far to much road travel

 

[Rust]

He was hardly stressed about it. Sat there with his legs crossed.

They do a lot of roading.been watching them back to back most of week whilst watching the rain.its nothing to them to road combines and drills for 4/5/6 hours on the road.they stop every hour for a pee and to check wheels,bearings and other bits and pieces.we never hear how the tracks fear though but in fairness they stick below 20 mph

He said the travel was rough due to the tracks hence the preference for wheel but I would think you could probably adjust the sensitivity somewhat of the joystick but then again you don't generally wrench the steering wheel around generally while going along the road.

It will be interesting to see how it handles in the field especially the one size fits all in chickpeas

surprise surprise there. That was always going to happen. Why send it to someone impartial like mike when you can send it to someone who seems to be on the payroll
