The roller has been working flawlessly all season with hardly any issues, just a few cracks I had to weld up one day, and it’s been keeping us moving forward. In this video, I’m working in the very first field we planted this year, which made for some tricky rows since one planter had GPS issues at the start. That means I’m constantly shifting lines and working around pivots, pipe, and some rough sandy spots, but so far the potatoes are holding up great.One of the coolest surprises today was stumbling across a patch of giant sunflowers that somehow made it through the spray. I’ve never grown sunflowers before, so I had to get out and take a closer look. Their heads were huge—full of seeds—and while some birds had already been at them, it was still wild to see. Don’t worry, they won’t be taking over; this field is headed back into hay, so those volunteer seeds won’t stand a chance. Of course, I had to roll them down just to see what would happen.While I’m rolling, the rest of the crew is busy too—working on the potato harvester, baling straw, and fixing equipment to get us ready. We’re officially just nine days away from the start of Idaho potato harvest, so it’s crunch time to get everything in order. The harvester got a brand-new $7,000 boom chain after last year’s accident on the road, plus new sprockets and rollers. Out in the fields, Josh and the others are baling up straw that got soaked in a storm, pulling out old pipes buried in the ground, and tackling repairs on hitches and equipment.By the end of the day, I had smashed down tall weeds under the pivots, avoided breaking risers on rented pipe, and finished nearly 70 acres. The sunset capped it off, and now we’re one step closer to the famous Idaho potato dig. Stick around for the next video—prep work for harvest is about to get even busier.If you enjoy farming, potatoes, hay, and day-to-day farm life here in Idaho, hit subscribe—it’s free and helps us out a ton.

Today’s video is a big one for me personally—we hit a huge milestone. Rocky Mountain Farmer officially crossed 100,000 subscribers, and I got to unbox our very first YouTube Silver Play Button! 🎉 None of this would’ve been possible without all of you watching, commenting, and supporting the channel. Thank you for letting us share our farm life and helping us teach where food really comes from—whether it’s potatoes, grain, or hay.After the unboxing, it’s straight back to work. My tractor decided to act up when the wheel angle sensor fried, so John Deere was out here fixing that so I could get back to rolling vines. At the same time, Ron’s Tires was busy swapping out one of the giant back tires on the harvester, semis were hauling potatoes, Josh was unbolting beds to swap trucks from manure/wheat duty to potato beds, and Trevor was hauling hay. Grandpa even stopped in to check on the potato piles. It’s safe to say—it’s a busy morning.We head down to the cellar to check progress. They’re about halfway done hauling out last year’s crop—cutting it close with new harvest just two weeks away. The pile looks good overall, with a few sprouted and wrinkly ones mixed in, but that’s fine since they’re all headed for processing.Out in the field, I’m rolling vines and sealing cracks to keep the potatoes from greening. We talk about why potato ground has to be worked deep with chisels (no-till just doesn’t cut it for spuds). I also share how a surprise 2½-inch rainstorm hit us hard—turning fields into mud and knocking out a few days of work. You’ll see Josh discing through the downpour and what it looked like when everything plugged up with mud.By the end of the video, we’re pushing forward—tractor codes cleared (for now), pivots moving, fields getting finished, and 500 acres of vines rolled so far. Harvest is right around the corner, and there’s still plenty to do to get everything ready.Thanks for being part of this journey and helping us hit 100K!

While rolling, I stumble across something unexpected—five big yellow squash right in the middle of the field! To mix things up, I also added in a bunch of deleted scenes from earlier this season that never made it into videos. You’ll see everything from drone shots spraying crops, swapping out pivot tires, and even a trip to Yellowstone National Park. It’s a mix of farming, behind-the-scenes moments, and a few surprises along the way. Come along for the ride!

We kicked things off by digging into the potato fields to see how this year’s crop is sizing up. The spuds are looking solid—good yield potential, no hollow heart showing, and moisture right where we want it. With verticillium wilt showing up in a few plants, we’re keeping a close eye, but overall the potatoes are off to a strong finish.From there, it was time to jump in the Fendt Ideal 9 combine and get back to wheat harvest. Yields are running strong with 140–170 bushels per acre, and we even filled the bin with over 500 bushels in one cut. The grain cart was running hard to keep up, and we’re getting closer to wrapping up the wheat for the season.Out in the fields, the straw crew was hard at work. The baler put out thousands of bales, with stacks going up fast and trailers hauling loads back to the yard. Nothing quite like the smell of fresh straw after a big wheat crop.Not every day runs smoothly though—we dealt with a couple irrigation issues, including fixing a wheel line and adjusting a pivot. Later, we even had to clean out a truck bed that was loaded with a full slab of hardened concrete. Farming never fails to throw surprises your way.As the sun set Harvest season is in full swing, and while there’s a lot of long hours, the payoff of seeing the crop come in is worth it.Thanks for riding along for another full day on the farm! Potato harvest is just around the corner, so stay tuned—it’s going to get really busy.
The Ultimate Harvest Showdown: Fendt Ideal 9 vs John Deere X9 Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-09-11 | To Join the RMF Club click here and fill out the form https://forms.gle/3z3sLcfjR7Ax585Q7Click here to check out Yankum Ropes. yankum.com/discount/RMF?afmc=lkGet 10% off at checkout when you using the discount code: RMFTo get 10% off your farmers defense order click here http://farmersdefense.com/THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER or use the code THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER at checkout.Discover the ultimate showdown between two farming giants: the Fendt Ideal 9 and the John Deere X9 1000 combine harvesters. This in-depth comparison covers everything from performance specs to cab comfort, helping you decide which machine is the best for your harvest.Performance & Efficiency:Both combines are top-tier performers, each operating at less than one bushel per acre loss—surpassing factory standards. The John Deere X9 1000, with its 550 HP engine, features a large 45-foot header and a 420-bushel grain tank. In contrast, the more powerful Fendt Ideal 9 boasts a 650 HP engine, a 40-foot header, and a larger grain tank. Learn how their respective header designs, including the John Deere's auger and the Fendt's unique flexible header with pressure sensors, impact harvesting efficiency on different terrains.Chaff & Straw Management:A key difference lies in how these combines handle straw and chaff. The John Deere combines both into a single windrow. The Fendt, however, uses fans to blow the chaff out the sides, creating a cleaner straw windrow—an ideal feature for farmers who bale and sell their straw.Operator Comfort & Technology:Step inside the cabs of these agricultural powerhouses. Both the Fendt and John Deere are designed for maximum comfort during long workdays. They feature spacious, quiet cabs with air-conditioned seats, refrigerators, and ergonomic controls. We explore the advanced technology of each, including automatic speed adjustment based on yield, GPS guidance, and the John Deere's "machine sync" capability that allows the combine driver to control the grain cart.Which Combine Wins?While both machines are excellent, their differences cater to specific farming needs. The John Deere's wider header may offer more coverage, but the Fendt's specialized straw management and lower cost make it a compelling choice. Watch our full video for the complete test and to see these combines in action!
Is This Our Best Wheat Ever?

Today we’re moving the combine back closer to the home farm after finishing up the faraway rented ground. That means about 900–1,000 acres of wheat left to harvest, and yields are looking strong at 150–170 bushels per acre in some spots. Always fun to see the Fendt IDEAL 9 in action — “The Beast” hard at work.But wheat harvest is just one part of the juggling act. At the same time we’ve got hay to rake, bale, and haul, plus hundreds of acres of straw still waiting to be baled. Trevor is running the baler, Christopher’s on the combine, and I’m out raking hay and later moving over to help with vine chopping and rolling a potato field that’s cracking open. When potato hills crack, sunlight can green up the tubers — so we’ve got to stay ahead of that with a vine beater and roller.We’re also still hauling manure, moving irrigation pivots, and loading hay stacks while semis haul out the last of last year’s potatoes from the refrigerated cellars. Never a dull moment when hay, wheat, and potatoes all overlap in the season.This is what it takes to keep a Rocky Mountain farm running — one farm, a hundred jobs, all happening at once.

Our Most Insane Harvest Day Yet! Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-08-29 | Hey everybody! Welcome to another beautiful day on the farm. Today, the work is non-stop and full of surprises, as we tackle a variety of tasks from sun-up to sundown.The morning starts with a major issue: a flat tire on one of our pivot irrigation systems. This marks the sixth flat tire we've had on this one pivot alone this year—a serious problem when you've got crops that need water! After getting the tire changed and the pivot back in line, I head off to my next task, but not before running into another challenge with a different pivot that got stuck in the mud. It’s all part of the daily grind.Meanwhile, other members of our team are just as busy. We check in with a crew member who's out raking hay for our third crop, and he shares a look at the rough fields we’re dealing with. He explains why we have to rake against the grain, which makes for a bumpy ride.We also get an inside look at harvesting hard red spring wheat. We tour the massive Fendt Ideal 9 combine and talk about its huge 350-400 gallon fuel tank and 500-bushel grain tank. You’ll hear about the amazing customer service from Agra Service that got us a loaner combine after ours broke down, and how a Fendt expert helped us fine-tune the settings to make sure we weren't losing any grain.Later, we'll show you what we're doing to haul hay and straw bales. We give you a peek at our new Gazika moisture sensor that "X-rays" each flake of hay to make sure it's dry enough for baling. It's an incredible piece of technology that saves us from the constant headache of high-moisture hay.This video is a raw look at the unexpected challenges and hard work that go into keeping a farm running. From fixing equipment to dealing with difficult weather and field conditions, every day is a test of our skills and patience.Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and let us know what you think in the comments below!To Join the RMF Club click here and fill out the form https://forms.gle/3z3sLcfjR7Ax585Q7Click here to check out Yankum Ropes. yankum.com/discount/RMF?afmc=lkGet 10% off at checkout when you using the discount code: RMFTo get 10% off your farmers defense order click here http://farmersdefense.com/THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER or use the code THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER at checkout.

Today’s video is packed with everything from wheat harvest to hay, potatoes, and even manure hauling. We start the day with the Fendt Ideal 9 combine knocking down golden wheat, but not without a few hiccups — a breakdown sends us back to the shop for some quick repairs. Once fixed, we’re back in the field putting acres away and filling grain carts fast.After wheat, it’s time to switch gears. We haul straw bales out of the field, load up semis, and get everything stacked tight for storage. Next, we bring in the manure spreader and start fertilizing fields, setting up nutrients for next season’s crops. Farming never stops, and every pass we make now pays off later in yield.Later in the day, we check on the potatoes and irrigation systems, making sure everything is running right. The pivots are moving steady and the spuds are looking strong.It’s a full cycle of farm life — from breakdowns and fixes, to harvesting, hauling, fertilizing, and preparing for the next season. Days like this show just how many moving parts it takes to keep a farm running.👉 If you enjoy watching real farm life, equipment in action, wheat and potato harvests, and the ups and downs of everyday agriculture, hit that subscribe button and join us for more!
John Deere vs Massey Ferguson vs New Holland! Swather Test! Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-08-22 | Today we’re putting three swathers head-to-head in a real field demo: the John Deere W235R with a 16-foot rotary head, the New Holland Speedrower 260 Plus with a 20-foot head, and the Massey Ferguson WR265 swather. We wanted to see how each machine stacks up in real-world hay cutting conditions—not just what the brochures say. This is an honest farmer comparison to help us decide which swather we should trade into for next year.The John Deere W235R brings updated technology like auto steer, a redesigned cab for comfort, and Deere’s reputation for reliability and precision. The New Holland Speedrower 260 Plus has been a workhorse on our farm for years—it runs a wide head, lays down clean windrows, and has proven itself in reliability and dry down performance. The Massey Ferguson WR265 is another strong competitor in the swather market, known for its powerful engine, advanced TwinMax conditioning system, smooth ride, and efficiency in tough hay and alfalfa conditions.In this swather comparison, we’ll cover:Cab comfort and ride quality for long hours in the seatCutting speed and head performance across different conditionsConditioner design and impact on dry down timesWindrow consistency and how they feed into the balerEase of use, controls, and features like auto steerDealer setup, support, and overall service reliabilityEach swather was set up by the dealership so you’re seeing the best performance possible for each brand in the same field. By the end of the day, all three—John Deere, New Holland, and Massey Ferguson—showed strengths, but only one will be the right fit for our farm moving forward.If you’re researching swathers or just love farm equipment, this real-world test will give you a farmer’s perspective on what really matters in hay cutting.👉 Which one would you pick: John Deere, New Holland, or Massey Ferguson?

1,600 Acres Waiting… and We’re Not Ready Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-08-17 | Farming never slows down! Today I had to dig into the cellar and clean out rotten potatoes that left a nasty mess on the floor. If we don’t stay on top of it, the damage can cost us thousands, so it was a full-on cleanup job to keep things running smooth for the next crop. After that, I switched gears and started getting ready for our upcoming wheat harvest. The Fendt IDEAL 9 combine is coming out of the shed, pivots are turning, and I’m making sure everything is dialed in before we hit the fields. With 1,600 acres of wheat waiting, there’s a lot on the line, and preparation is key to keeping the machines rolling without breakdowns. From messy cellar work to big harvest prep, this video shows the behind-the-scenes work that keeps a farm moving forward. Farming isn’t just about planting and harvesting—it’s about fixing, cleaning, and getting ready for the next challenge every single day.To Join the RMF Club click here and fill out the form https://forms.gle/3z3sLcfjR7Ax585Q7Click here to check out Yankum Ropes. yankum.com/discount/RMF?afmc=lkGet 10% off at checkout when you using the discount code: RMFTo get 10% off your farmers defense order click here http://farmersdefense.com/THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER or use the code THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER at checkout.
This Wasn’t How the Potato Season Was Supposed to End… Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-08-14 | Ever wonder what 40,000 sacks of potatoes look like when they get rejected and dumped? Today I’m taking you from the potato fields to the pivots, into the cellars, and finally out to the massive pit where all those spuds ended up. We’ll check soil moisture, explain what those little “potato mouths” mean, start and stop irrigation pivots, and even discover some surprise sunflowers growing right in the middle of the crop. Plus, I’ll show you how we turn even rotten potatoes into valuable fertilizer. From irrigation tips to behind-the-scenes cellar drama, this is a real look at the highs and lows of farming season.To Join the RMF Club click here and fill out the form https://forms.gle/3z3sLcfjR7Ax585Q7Click here to check out Yankum Ropes. yankum.com/discount/RMF?afmc=lkGet 10% off at checkout when you using the discount code: RMFTo get 10% off your farmers defense order click here http://farmersdefense.com/THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER or use the code THEROCKYMOUNTAINFARMER at checkout.

We were stacking hay, checking moisture levels, and fighting wet bales before shifting to ditch work to prep water for the potatoes. Some fields are drying for wheat harvest, others need careful fertilizer adjustments. In between, we tackled manure spreader gearbox problems (including one completely cracked case) and got pivots running—until one stopped. A walkout to the fourth tower revealed the dreaded gearbox failure: the coupler between the motor and gearbox had snapped, leaving the wheel spinning in mud. Add in regrowth hay, plugged nozzles, hornets’ nests, and overflowing ditches… and it was one of those days where irrigation, repairs, and harvest prep all collided. Farming isn’t just planting and harvesting—it’s solving problems in real time!

Rain hit right after we started baling, leaving a lot of the hay too wet to finish. Our baler and rake tractors both broke down, so we're working with what we've got to keep things moving. In today’s video, I load and unload hay using our loaders, stack bales with proper spacing to avoid spontaneous combustion, and even take my first solo drive in the semi to help finish hauling the last loads. After that, we get our irrigation pivots fired back up to keep the potato fields from drying out in the summer heat. I also explain why we stack bales with gaps and how we test them for moisture and feed quality. If you enjoy real-life farming and want to see what it takes to grow quality hay and potatoes, you’ll enjoy this one. Be sure to subscribe and join the RMF Club to win weekly sticker giveaways!

While the fire raged, we were busy raking second crop hay in hot, dry, and windy conditions. Moisture was tricky to read, with the baler showing 10% while the probe read 20%, so we played it safe and kept raking 400 acres to prep for baling when the dew came on. The fire burned a huge stretch of sagebrush and dry grass but luckily stopped at the river, sparing the farmland. Trevor and the crew even had to evacuate 400 girls from a nearby camp as 50 mph winds spread the flames fast. We wrapped the day by keeping pivots running to protect our sandy potato fields and checking the ditch water levels. A long, smoky day full of raking, fire-fighting, and praying the flames stayed out of the crops.
Wild Oats Took Over This Hay Field… Can We Save It?

It’s the last one we had to cut, but wild oats have been a huge issue here since last year’s wheat crop. We planted Roundup Ready hay to knock them back, and after a couple seasons, this field should finally be clean. Josh started the day in the swather, and I traded him off so he could check pivots. The hay is knee-high and just starting to bloom, but some of it is laid down, so I had to constantly adjust speeds between 6–16 mph to get a clean cut. Farming has been stressful lately with old pivots breaking, rotten potatoes rejected at the cellar, and endless maintenance, so running the swather with music blasting was a needed break. This wraps up about 400 acres of hay, and now we’ll let it dry a week before raking and baling. Farming isn’t easy, but we’re pushing through. Stick around for the raking and baling videos coming soon!

After prepping the area with gravel, compacting it down, and carefully trimming branches, the shed delivery was underway. The path was tight, with only inches to spare between massive pine and maple trees, but thanks to an incredible driver and a wild trailer that could shift side to side, we got it in place with zero major damage. We had to strap trees back, break a few dead branches, and even pull the truck out with a Yankum rope! This is the beginning of an exciting new project where we’ll turn this shed into a cozy off-grid cabin, complete with a loft, kitchen, bathroom, and more. Stick around for the full cabin transformation and adventures to come. If you want to help design the floor plan or get involved, check the description for details!

Our cellar was flooded with water and full of rotten potatoes, so I jumped in the scraper tractor and got to work. We fired up the potato wash plant to try and save what we could, but things only got worse. The Ranger got stuck, we broke a riser pipe, had to dig by hand in the mud, call in the backhoe, and patch up a pressurized water line. All while flies swarmed the cellar and the smell got unbearable. Meanwhile, I had to check on pivots and make sure everything else on the farm kept running. This is real-life farming—mud, chaos, and doing whatever it takes to make it work. Watch as we try to turn rotten potatoes into something usable and fight through one of the messiest days we’ve had in a while!

One pivot won’t move, another has a noisy gearbox, and yet another is spraying me in the face thanks to 30 mph winds and some very unfortunate timing. I test motors, climb towers, call the electrician, and even haul off a 15-foot-long busted pump motor. And just when I think I’m making progress, I get drenched fixing nozzles I can’t even shut off. It’s days like this that prove farming is anything but predictable. But we keep pushing forward, solving problems one soaking wet step at a time. This episode has gearboxes, grit, and a whole lot of water. Join me for another wild day on the farm.

We're Back at the Wash Plant Again 😩Things didn’t go as planned this year. We had to fire up the old potato wash plant after a cellar full of spuds started to rot… again. After moving the potatoes once and storing them in a non-refrigerated cellar, they sat way too long, and now we’re left trying to save what we can.In this episode, we test the wash plant, deal with overloaded belts, muddy water, plugged nozzles, and even have to rig up a pump system from a ditch just to keep things running. It’s hot, it’s messy, and it smells awful—but there are still a lot of good potatoes we’re trying to salvage.Come along as we fight through the chaos, get the equipment running, and try to keep these potatoes from going to waste.👉 Join the RMF Club and get weekly stickers👍 Like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoy seeing the behind-the-scenes of real farm life.💬 Let me know in the comments what your worst harvest headache has been!

Whether we like it or not. The potato wash plant is rolling in again—because we’ve got another mess of rotten potatoes. The processor rejected 40,000 sacks unless we wash them. So, in today’s episode, we haul out the old wash plant (the one we swore we’d never use again), get everything set up with our Evenflow bin, sorter table, piler, custom plumbing, and more. From flushing pipes and even inventing a new tool to clean sprouts—this is a full day of problem-solving and potato chaos. We’re fighting heat, busted pumps, and tight timelines before the canal water shuts off. But if this system works, it might just save this whole mess. So settle in, watch us rebuild this operation, and see if we can turn rotten into ready-to-ship.
We Found an Abandoned Camper in the Woods... and Hauled It Out! Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-06-28 | We’re back with another RMF Outdoors episode—and this one’s a wild one! Today we brought out the skid steer to prep a gravel pad for our new shed, but that’s just the beginning. We also tackled clearing out an abandoned camper that’s been sitting deep in the woods for what we think is over 40 years. Watch as we cut through trees, battle a steep mountain driveway, and somehow (miraculously) manage to drag the rotted-out camper up through the forest and into the dump trailer. Skid steer action, chainsawing, and some seriously tricky maneuvering—this video has it all!

I wasn’t out when they were baling, but the team’s been hard at it, and now we’re bringing it all in. Trevor, Josh, Brady, and Christopher are running the loaders and trucks—watch as we load up the hay train and my old Top Kick GMC! We’ve learned a ton this year, from managing moisture to stacking with air gaps to prevent fires. It’s been a new experience for us compared to silage, with a lot fewer people needed.

The potatoes are looking great and really taking off, but now it’s time to get water on them — and the hay fields too. I’ve got pivots to start, nozzles to unplug, drip oil to check, and ditches to fill. Most of these pivots are new to me this year so it’s been a learning curve getting them going. Also ran into a few surprises… rusted nozzles, weird old tires, and even a skunk hiding under one pivot! The team’s also out picking up bales from first crop hay. Lots going on, but the good news is all the pivots are finally running and the potatoes are getting water! If you enjoyed coming along for the day, don’t forget to subscribe.

This Should NOT Be Happening to Our Potatoes Again! Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-06-13 | It’s a sunny, breezy day on the farm, and we’re back at it moving potatoes out of the cellar. We ran into some odd hydraulic issues with the transloader, but we’re still making progress. These spuds have been in storage too long and are starting to get soft and sprout, so it’s good to finally see them go. We got two trucks loaded—even fit everything in, which I didn’t think would happen!Meanwhile, Titan Machinery stopped by to pick up one of our loaders for pin repairs, and we’re prepping a brand-new gravel road to stack our hay bales. Josh is out smoothing it with the field plane, and it’s shaping up well.This is our first year baling hay instead of doing silage, so stay tuned to see how it all plays out.

I Bought an Abandoned Campsite! Rocky Mountain Farmer 2025-06-07 | So... I just bought an abandoned campsite, and in this video, I’m giving you the very first tour of the place! It’s got a ton of potential, but let’s just say—it also comes with its fair share of mystery, mess, and memories.🚗 As we drive in, you’ll see the layout of the old camp: gravel driveways, cleared areas, and even some leftover gear like broken camp chairs and fire pits.

In today’s video on the farm, we hit a string of setbacks that made for a wild day! First, we found another break in the mainline irrigation pipe, so we had to dig up the field to fix it—but not before we blew a tire on the backhoe while heading out. Then we got hit with more news: we now have to clean all of our potatoes before they go to the processing plants. That means setting up our potato cleaning and transloading equipment ASAP to keep shipments moving. And to top it off, one of our irrigation pivots wouldn’t start, so we made a trip to the pivot center—only to find a skunk living under the pivot! It’s just another unpredictable day in the life of a potato farmer. If you’re into farming, irrigation repair, potato harvest logistics, or just want to see how we problem-solve on the fly, this one’s for you.

It’s a rainy day on the farm, and we’re dealing with major irrigation system problems. After over half an inch of rare Idaho rain, I shut off the ditch and pivot—only to discover a mainline blowout. The pivot booster pump isn’t working right either. Meanwhile, we’re digging up a cracked section of old glue-in mainline pipe that’s been replaced piece by piece over the years. Things take a turn when we hit the pivot power conduit—twice. The wires were laid right over or under the mainline, causing major issues. We’re also contending with old manure lines, muddy trenches, and tight repair timelines. Farming’s never easy, especially when everything breaks at once! Watch as we battle the mud and rain to keep our farm irrigation running.

We’re firing up the pivot for the first time this season—but it doesn’t go quite as planned. After flushing the system to get everything clean and clearing out the nozzles one by one, things take a turn. Suddenly, water starts pouring where it shouldn’t be. The ditch is leaking—bad. It floods the pump and starts soaking the edge of the field. We shut everything down and come back the next day with the mini excavator to dig it up and find the break. After some muddy work and a patch job, we’ve done what we can… but will it hold? This video has it all—irrigation startup, troubleshooting, and a mini-excavator rescue mission. Farming’s never boring, and this was one of those days where everything that could go wrong did. Come along for the ride and see if we can save the season before it even starts.

Today, I'm out with our potato cultivator, which we affectionately call the Dammer Diker. This machine is crucial for ensuring our potato rows are just right after planting, preventing the potatoes from poking through the ground and turning green.The Spudnik cultivator features specialized shanks with blades that break up the soil underneath the potatoes, ensuring they have loose soil to grow in. It also has wings that widen the rows by throwing dirt up onto the sides, creating optimal conditions for healthy potato growth.Join me as I walk you through how this cultivator works and show you the results in our fields. Despite the rain, it's a perfect day for this task as the wet sand makes it easier to work with. I'll also explain why this process is essential, especially on hilly terrain, where the cultivator helps create dams and dikes to manage water flow.Stay tuned for more updates and behind-the-scenes footage as we continue this day on the farm!
