    Total of 3 hours combining in almost 3 weeks. Been raining that much, got out yesterday for 3 hours for a localized storm to dump 3/4" and have 100km winds, lucky the wind came from the west and that bin had protection from the shed this time.

    Travel questions

    Honestly, say google it, because I should I'm just lazy. Going down to Haydays this weekend and wondering about travel. Haven't went anywhere since 2016 on a plane. What are the rules with lithium batteries on a plane? Are they allowed? I have one of those fireproof battery bags to put them in...

    Just found out the company was just put on as a publicly traded company a month ago, and the stock price tanked. So they not only screwed the farmers, now the share holders as well. Correction, Purely Canada Foods is owned by a company called Above Food, and they've been traded for a long time...

    Investment ... stocks to buy?

    Right now? Probably nothing, in my opinion, I think market is going to go through a wild ride. Some I’m invested in are GME, Suncor, Ensign. The other three I have I’m not even going to mention.

    https://www.realagriculture.com/2024/08/cgc-revokes-licenses-of-purely-canada-foods-farmers-owed-money-should-contact-cgc/ Purely Canada is just 1 mile south of us. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if they disappeared. The whole operation sounds like a bad deal, late payments, cheques bouncing...

    We’ve gotten 3.5” of rain in the last two weeks, and suppose to rain today and tomorrow. I hope they’re wrong. Bin bounced off the one to the north of it and settled onto the bin to the North East of it, and poked a hole in it. Rested against the red top bin barely a scrape on it.

    The one thats leaning seems to have faired the best. looks like it just folded the rain lip over at the top, no dented sheets from what i see, i'm not too eager to get underneath it though. The other two faired worse off. Now that it's resting on the ground, its started to settle in and now it's...

    I've found our 9870's are 175% of a 9600, in the heat of the day they're probably 2 times the combine, but in the evening when it gets tough thats where the 9600's caught up only about 50% faster then. But the one 9870 we have has a cary big top on it and holds 400 bushels. vs the 9600 240...

    Last fall they drove the prototype machine down the road infront of our farm when we were heading out, i was in the grain cart and that combine was wrapped in that funky black white and grey design to try and hide what it was. Was rather large, even compared to our 9870's. Plastic everywhere on...

    Not my bins, so not sure if my old man has insurance or not on them, but from what i see it doesn't look like its worth a claim, doesn't look like theres a hole or anything just dents. Roof even seems intact on the on tipped over. As long as they're water tight i'll just pound them out. Side...

    Two nights ago got another storm, inch of rain in 30 minutes, and blew over one bin, into two other bins. It's still leaning there but too muddy to want to make a mess with my excavator to bring it back down. Guess i'll have to jump in the bins when they full enough and try pound out the dents...

    No rain all of July with most days being over 30 degrees. Now trying to harvest we get rain every 4 days. 6/10's last night, and three four days ago we got 7/10's, and 4 day before that 1-1/4"... Would've been nice to have that in July with that heat.

    There use to be a training segment in the app itself. Where you can virtually practice flying the drone, without actually flying it. To get familiar with the controls.
