Bit of a learning curve here, but I’m liking this stripper! Tried throwing a couple bucks out the window at it and it doesn’t want to perform any better though!

Couple bucks? Thats your problem - it's an American stripper...you're not allowed to throw Loonies and Toonies. Bust out the greenbacks 💵

Finally getting around to finishing up on the Christmas gift my wife made me last year. I'm a pretty sentimental fella and I like to write notes and keep memories. I'm excited to see what my wall will look like after my farming career, filling it with the grain I produce with my family.

I thought I read somewhere that the Liberals counter tariffs would hit agriculture machinery and parts out of the US. Has anyone else seen that or heard what exactly it’s on? News is only reporting the shit like cosmetics, clothing, appliances, wood, etc.

Combine cab is a little more full this year, and I wouldn't have it any other way! The pea mold and dust can tone down anytime, though. #harvest26 #abag

Second flight for the T100 for us. We were up at 5:00 am but didn't get going until much much later because of the fog. Definitely seeing (and feeling) the immediate need for a well outfitted trailer setup!

After doing some drone spraying over the past week or so. Very quickly you find out what your inefficiencies are. And how things need to change. Find out in a bit if we’re happy with the job it did. They can haul ass if you can keep them spraying. Pretty neat tech. Changes will need to be made to the tender for next year.

Why so high? When we're spraying with a ground rig, it's just over the plants to help with drift and penetration. Drones seem to need that extra height.

Height + Speed (plus other variables) help determine your swath width. Closer to canopy would cause a smaller width and less efficient

Third year of seeding into stripper stubble, and it still amazes me the trash we are able to get through When we first bought the drill, we were really concerned about hairpinning smaller seeds - but this year's flax germ has me thinking we may be dialling it in #plant26 #cdnag

Inaugural flight for the T100 on our farm. Definitely a ways to go to reach the efficiency we would like, but not too shabby for our first go.

You will find batteries will be the limiting factor

Absolutely right! Got any tips on improving battery efficiency? Park midway down a field?

Don't know what he is, but I do know that his cryptic bullshit pisses me off. Doesn't want a conversation, just wants to stoke the fire.

Was quite the storm, for sure! Fingers crossed the nitrogen helps the fields that didn't get quite as smacked. As long as there's still a stem there, I hope this storm is just a delay to harvest 🤞

How big was that hail? Say quarter size much?

No I wouldn't say so. Pea size or smaller.

Absolutely. You have my permission to share. Video was taken east of Vulcan, AB. Would be swell if a premium weather subscription found its way to my inbox for compensation 👀
