A day in the life of a YouTube Farmer
What happens here
The farmer outlines various farm improvement tasks. He uses a Stihl MSA 160 battery-powered chainsaw to trim low-hanging branches along a gravel road. He then operates his John Deere skid steer to move two loads of crushed run stone, spreading it to repair sections of the gravel road. He also retrieves and attaches a Woods PSS72 precision seeder, followed by a TR3 rake, to his John Deere tractor, preparing the equipment for land smoothing and planting tasks to prevent erosion. He also mentions plans to use a wood chipper for garden biomass and to install more Premier Poultry electric fencing for cattle.
Goal: Perform essential farm upkeep and prepare implements for future land management
