A new John Deere baler picker requires new support equipment and Matt takes care of that in this video. He also gives you a winter crop tour of the wheat and the cover crops.

Love it
Hey Matt I have a question for you. Did you or your Dad ever use a cotton sampler knife to test cotton bowls? I collect pocket knives and I recently purchased a cotton sampler knife it's a cool pocket knife.
I ended up planting my cover crop rather late(Rye,tillage radish, berseem clover, jerry oats and barley), however I still have some surviving radishes. From your past experiences if temperatures are good should they continue to grow? I am located in south east NC for context.
We really enjoyed your Christmas decorations. Just happened as we were filming it Christmas In Dixie was playing on the radio.
Grain can be cleaned. I bet that’s what the hog operation is doing. They prob have a cleaning and mixing process that allows them to take in the affected grain, and they probably make a mark up on the process when they calculate how much they dock you. Boom, a complimentary enterprise!
Hey Matt I’m a viewer in Seattle and appreciate your videos so much. I just read an article about efforts to pay farmers to practice no till farming and cover crops for the carbon sequestration it provides. Do you participate in any of those programs?
Who do you usually go through to purchase your cover crops
Im glad to see you got new equipment to help make it easier on your cotton harvest
Not being from cotton country, why do you call them modules instead of round bales of cotton?
Did you spray Prefix on the double crop beans? Wasn’t sure if the fomesafen killed the cover crop?
How do you decide how much nitrogen to put to your wheat
Yeah Matt I get meat straight from a butcher, the entire cow turned to burger, then one to sausage, the butcher adds his own spices, good God is it good
There is a You Tube cotton and peanut farm called Field Rows near Marianna, Florida that runs a John Deere cotton picker similar to yours. They may be interested in yours. I know you can find a way to contact them.
I'd say herbicide killed your covercrop. I've seen it before. Your early covercrop looks great have a safe prosperous 2023. Great video.
We do cover crops in our Farm plus we do oats beans corn and wheat
Interesting video Matt. Enjoying the content. But you didn't commit on how Kelly's hand is doing. Take care and may God Bless.
2023 corn 197 bu pacr beans 88 bu wheat 101 bu cotton 2100 lb lets go hard to put down a stepper love the cover cropsrun that corn through a cleaner if you can get access it might do the trick
I really hate to say this but maybe since you have lost those cover crops, a disk and finishing tool would be the thing to do. It would help with the gopher holes and washed out places. You might loose some but you would gane a lot.
Thanks to ALL 🙏.
That cold weather knocked our wheat back about 3 weeks too. Then that cold front at Christmas burnt the fire out of it. Wheat looks good now.
that tool you called a do all that is a IH seed bed finisher and the best dang tool to finish a field right before putting the planter in there ran one on the farm i worked for and i loved it was very enjoyable tool to run
Great for you
Your field with the tillage radishes looked great! One thing you might try on the other field cold-killed is drilling oats as early as possible this spring and then terminating the oats like you already planned around your cash crop planting schedule. I came across that solution some researchers suggested if harvest pushed too far beyond winter rye planting dates since I have a similar situation — really good stand of winter rye but none of the winter wheat plots did anything other than feed the local wild turkey flocks. Maybe of interest to you: I also experimented with inoculating my winter rye seed with a small bag of microrhyzal fungus powder and mixed it in before broadcasting the seed — it should add several years worth of cover crop activity — the more research and testing I do all comes back to Microrhyzal fungus success.
It's all on agenda with the false positive corona tests in a way of bringing down the farmer and messing with our food supply
That is a good one we use it at the gin on our loader
my wife always gave me the devil for calling one that we butcherd steak
Matt will roundup kill that ryegrass you have planted for covercrop? I know it wont touch italian ryegrass here. We have to kill it with select when we do burndown.

Are cotton pickers built on combine chassis?
Man you got balls using a cutting disk with no guard. The amount of times I've seen one explode on someone I won't take that risk anymore.
Those are the biggest radishes I've ever seen
