Sowing Oats - John Deere 7215R & 750 Seed Drill

Our neighbor comes over to sow our oats to get our alfalfa stand going.

There was a day, ... We pulled a 12 ft JD grain drill with a Case DC3 (32hp, maybe 35hp tops, gasser), with an EZ-FLOW fert drop spreader behind, with harrows pulled behind the EZ-FLOW spreader. Oh, no cab on the DC3, no GPS, no markers. And, it had a steel dish seat. We drilled hundreds of acres this way, grain (wheat, oats, barley) and grass seed, ... for years and years. There was a time when all this was much simpler. :-) No drone to follow either, no pictures, no vids, ... just worked day after day.

Anyway, great video, Ryan.

+How Farms Work - I have to say that is a nice little tractor too! Love the new Deere Tractors they are some of the best looking out there! Go Green Or Go Home!

Funny thing is, those couple bags of alfalfa cost as much if not more than the pallet of oats lol!

At 7:25 I can see across the Mississippi River and see the mound of Sherrill Iowa in the horizon.

VERY nice video, Ryan! Thanks for posting!!

Really great video nice to see a really well prepared seedbed. The seed drill and tractor combination looks really smart too. How much power does that seed drill need by the looks of it a much smaller tractor would handle it easy.

Can you compare the 7215r and the 8235r in one of your future videos ? It would be interesting to see them working side by side.

+1 on drone footage. For us city slickers, please talk about what a parent crop is and the connection between oats and alfalfa. Thanks,

[billyfrank]

nice looking operations wait all john deere operations are nice

How many pounds of oats per acre did you plant with the drill? Awesome video. I am just starting in farming, 1st generation and looking to plant a 20 acre field I turned over in oats this spring to condition the soil.

Being raised on a farm can be a hard but rewarding life. I wouldn't trade my heritage for anything.
Sub note, Ryan, have you ever or would you consider installing a live streaming web cam on your farm somewhere like on top of a silo or something aiming down giving a view of your farm HQ.
Consider it won't you?
