Tons of videos about Ley Vector once installed but it was really cool to see the whole setup process and adapting the system to your farm.

Love watching your dad as he observes the mixer filling up. I'm thinking that of the 10 Generations, his generation has seen the most advancements in technology in the dairy industry. Proud of him for embracing change. That's not easy for us old guys.

You've made so many changes and improvements over the time I have been following your channel. New Barns, Solar Power, Silos, Feeding System. It's always fascinating and your channel is excellent.

This farm is not the same farm as the one i started watching years go when you were advertising soda can of drinks with a milk label in your office with a deer i think on the might not comment a lot but never missed a video and well done, you and your dad, for keeping the farm going and constantly improving it during this uncertain times for farmers all over the western world.

Hey erik, im a dairy farmer from the netherlands with 100 dairycows, i’m following your video’s for a while now and im learning a lot from your way of running your farm.

I think your feeding system overal with the upright silo’s is the most efficient way of feeding cows with minimal spoilage, accurate and consistent and with way less labor. I think many farmers are going to copy this in the future

Keep up the good work💪

Congratulations!
You and your father should be very proud.

I am not a farmer. I have been around different industries that automated. The setup and getting the system running right is fine on the new system. The proof will come when the system is a bit older. Then the company you chose and the system you bought will show its true colors. I see this company you’re using has many working long term systems and I understand why you went with them. I hope for many years of service. Farms are a very dirty place for electric equipment. It’s been really fun watching this system being built out.

SUCCESS !!🤩🤩 I have been waiting for months for this day. So I can only imagine what this day means for you.

[Ruzwa]

Must be amazing to see it finally in action after all this time and working successfully. Congratulations!

[Mike-zsbk]

Your long term labor and machinery savings should very substantial. Knew nothing of dairy before I found your channel really enjoy your videos.

[GICK]

What an awesome system. And the fact that your Dad gets to sleep in, I can relate with that. Getting older makes mornings more of a slow start-up situation. You dad needs that for sure.

[Chrisgrannysmith]

5:05 is my favorite part of the video! Your father laid back in his chair, saving his knees, watching the fruits of all his and his families hard labour pay off! Congratulations sir

[marklollar]

Congratulations! That is one cool setup, lot of prep work to get to this day, well done 👍 Hope it works well for years and makes your life even that much more enjoyable.

[davidcmans]

Been waiting eagerly for this video ever since you first talked about it. So very happy for you guys. Hope it works well with little troubles. Peace be with you.

[Bogieking]

I would've loved this back in the 70's when I worked on the farm. Got to love progress!

[jonathanmccrea]

Eric, if you could do a video on the cost breakdown or a cost-benefit analysis, that would be super interesting

[drsmith]

Great to see system up & running hope it gives you & dad some family time.

[doug]

Love the setup and so happy that it is working well! Can't wait to see how it works in the winter and long term as well! Great job to everyone!!!!
