  • nice vid. bro. thx for posting

  • I think you might be a little overweight on your semi lol.

  • the hippies will be after ya for burnin that and did u guys have it controlled as in somthing to spray on the fire to keep it away from the woods and ull be safer plowing it

  • @johnb32xq Ha ha. Yea, you're probably right. We harrow around the field before burning and keep the harrow close in case we have trouble.

  • Ok, I understand.Anyway,what do you do after burning?What about the minimum tillage?That could be an option instead of burning?,We used to burn the wheat straw in my country,but now it is prohibited.

  • To burn the wheat straw is sillyest thing I have ever seen.You ruin the micro life in your soil and you take organic part from the soil unnecessarily.

  • @Kistaki79 I agree. However, our wheat acreage is only a small portion of our farming operation and we are not set up to plant directly into the wheat straw. And due to a need to get our second crop in on a timely manner, it is the best option we have.

  • @Kistaki79 actually burning the straw is necessary. Sometimes you can plant directly into it but it takes a no till planter that will go through concrete. June is when we harvest wheat in arkansas and usually by then the ground is hard and dry. sometimes if the ground is too hard to plant into we will burn it off, work it with an implement to get loose dirt, and then plant our soybeans. Trust me if it wasn't necessary we wouldn't do it. We're not that stupid.

  • @hogzilla22 I'm not saying that u r stupid or something,i did not want to be rude to you at all, I understand that you said.Sometimes we face the same problem after we harvested wheat or rapeseed,only we can do,wait for some rain to come.In your case I guess you cannot wait for rain because of short time.

  • i didnt know farmers could do that wheat fields but did y'all plant anything there ?

  • nice video

  • @classharvester Thanks.  What part of Canada are you from?

  • @rbranch2008 I live near Chesterville, Ontario, Canada. how many acres you guys farming?

  • @classharvester approx. 2,000 acres of cotton, 1,800 acres of peanuts, 400 acres of wheat, and 400 acres of soybeans.

  • @rbranch2008 holy shit...really?
