Amazing.
It certainly is. So as you guys are looking to the future of the farm and the future of the channel, what are you excited about? You're going to keep doing more of the same? You got more stories to tell?
You know, I don't really know where the channel is going to go in that if we just continue to tell a story, and I don't really know what that story is going to bring. I think there's a lot of opportunity for the farm to grow in the next 10 years. There's a lot of acres that could be added. So we're going to have to hit that crossroad. What does that mean for us? Do we need more equipment?
more manpower. Um, we've got a younger generation that's quickly growing and won't be long. And these kids will be able to start participating in our farm operation. So we're trying to think ahead for that. Um, you know, and it's right now, it's not a great time to think about the future.
Cause you're like, I don't know if we're going to make it through this year kind of thing, but it, it is exciting. But I, I, you know, every year I think this is going to be a boring year and it just seems like something happens that just makes it fun. Yeah, or something you want to forget.
It's based around the seeders. It's based around 24-hour capacity of one of their air seeders.
And, I don't like the idea of mega farms, not that I'm against it, but for us in particular. But there's a point where you have to grow to stay in business. I mean, and that's where you got to kind of follow. And if there's land that's been next to you for
well, the entire life of the farm and it has a chance to come up and you've got the opportunity, it'd be, you always look back and why didn't grandpa buy that piece of land? He had the chance, he had the money, why didn't he do it? You know, and you don't want to be that person, but you got to be smart about it. So I think, you know, you just got to give it a try.
I don't think we've ever had a payment on a tractor.
Only combines.
Not that we just have cash to throw at stuff like that, but we buy these bargain deals. We bought a $6,000 truck, put an engine out of another truck that was thrashed, under $20,000. We've got a nice semi to pull stuff around. We didn't have to spend $100,000.
I'm not joking. Time is getting to be tough trying to find out how to get it done with the means that we have. Before, bachelors, no kids. It's like, you know, all the time in the world. Who cares, you know? But now it's a struggle to find the right time to be able to get this stuff done.
Yeah.
Maybe he was talking about himself.
What it costs you to grow your acre of corn is what we pay for our land, basically.
So it's a way different scale. Just different levels. Yeah, it's pretty much the same, but just a smaller scale. I will say, I see a lot more newer paint in this country than I do in our country.
Yeah, there were some years that were killer. And we droughted during them, so.
Yeah.
No, no, we did not. Mine was Hollywood because I make videos and I hate Hollywood. I do like a couple movies. No, no, so people call me Hollywood. I just say Nick, though, but I don't really care. Whatever they want to call me, that's fine. Scott, we were doing a live stream and some guy in the comments during the live stream kept saying, hey, ask that leg arms over there.
What's that leg arms doing?
