@ndrockfarmer @JohnDeere What are you proposing to cap off? The whole compressor system?

John Deere experts!! These keep leaking on my RT tractors, can I just cap it and bypass it?? Thoughts @JohnDeere #agtwitter #twotrackmafia

@BantrySeedFarms They all throttle back, I think since 2018 or whenever they put the new handle in them. MUCH quieter. Was a very big improvement.

Guys with the 616R sprayer. Couple questions. Do they automatically idle down in field ? Any major issues you’re seeing ? Guessing they’d rev back up when needed ? Huge increase compared to 4045? #Agtwitter

Anyone know of companies/people that can vulcanize rubber conveyor belting. The closer to southern Alberta the better.

@AllamFarmer Put the parts downstairs, lunchroom/office upstairs. Papers are lighter than brake drums.

@EthanKlassen2 @BantrySeedFarms Crops won’t wait till it’s figured out what happened so you’ll be footing the bill to fix it no matter what happened. 😩

@pvg403 @BantrySeedFarms it ran for 24 hours maybe, the scrape is from it rubbing on the barge as they pulled it up because it wasn’t centred in the hole. We don’t pull them in winter, the turbine mfg said it’s not necessary. Very good chance it could’ve been damaged with the crew that did the work here

Has anyone else had nothing but issues with pivots this year. No matter the brand. Or 2 months old or 60 years old ? FML!! #Agtwitter

@EthanKlassen2 @BantrySeedFarms Did it run this year yet? do you pull them for winter? Looks like there’s a scrape down the whole front of it. Maybe damaged on install?

@pvg403 @BantrySeedFarms I just saw that now that you mention it, I’m not sure how that could even happen considering it’s dropped down through the barge and nothing can get underneath of it

@EthanKlassen2 @BantrySeedFarms That bowl looks dented? Is the impeller hitting the inside of it?

@BantrySeedFarms Pulled a turbine out of our floating pump today, 2500 hours and she’s seized up solid. They don’t call it irritation season for nothing

@ISchmidtFaced Another vote for screen in the tank. Had this on the same tractor.

Who’s a 9.0L Deere expert? My 8360RT all of a sudden lost power. Changed filters. Turn, go up a hill, run hydraulics tractor falls on its face with no power. Doesn’t smoke unless under load and still not a lot. Turbo? Injectors? Nonserviceable crankcase filter thingy? Starts fine

@chaduthf We use Uattend. Geolocation handy for field starts. Can allow or disallow editing for the forgetful. Payroll folks can access at anytime. We like it, it bulk exports in formats that we were looking for.

Does anyone use a app for tracking hours instead of time cards if you do can you let me know how you like it please

@Martyupnorth_2 It’s no different in the US. Particularly in the West.

61% of Alberta's land (green) still belongs to the Crown (i.e. King Charles). We have to keep that in mind when discussing the idea of sovereignty or becoming a 51st state.

@liz_churchill10 @ABDanielleSmith @realDonaldTrump When any person or product is leaving Canada the only checkpoint they go through is US Customs and Border Protection. Fix your own border. It’s far more strenuous crossing into Canada than entering America.

@ABDanielleSmith @realDonaldTrump Just close the border. He wants the drug trafficking and human trafficking to END. Why don’t you?

(1/2) I am disappointed with U.S. President Donald Trump’s @realDonaldTrump decision to place tariffs on all Canadian goods. This decision will harm Canadians and Americans alike, and strain the important relationship and alliance between our two nations. Alberta will do everything in its power to convince the U.S. President and Congress, as well as the American people, to reverse this mutually destructive policy. We note the reduced 10% tariff for Canadian energy which is partially a recognition of the advocacy undertaken by our Government and industry to the U.S. Administration pointing out the substantial wealth created in the U.S. by American companies and tens of thousands of American workers that upgrade and refine approximately $100 billion of Canadian crude into $300 billion of product sold all over the world by those same U.S. companies. It is also worth noting that if oil and gas exports are excluded, the United States actually sells more to Canada than Canada sells to the U.S.. As I’ve stated to every American policymaker I’ve met with these past months, Canada buys more from the U.S. than any country on earth - more than U.K., France, Germany, Italy and Vietnam combined. There is, therefore, no economic justification for tariffs imposed on any Canadian goods. Alberta will continue our diplomatic efforts in the United States to persuade the U.S. President, lawmakers, Administration officials and the American people to lift all tariffs on Canadian goods as soon as possible and to repair our relationship with the United States. I encourage all Premiers and federal officials to do the same, especially as the effects of these tariffs begin to take their toll south of the border. Americans need to understand the detrimental consequences of this policy decision. Alberta will also work collaboratively with our federal government and fellow provinces on a proportionate response to the imposed U.S. tariffs through the strategic use of Canadian import tariffs on U.S. goods that are more easily purchased from Canada and non-U.S. suppliers. This will minimize costs to Canadian consumers while creating maximum impact south of the border. All funds raised from such import tariffs should go directly to benefit the Canadians most harmed by the imposed U.S. tariffs. Alberta will, however, continue to strenuously oppose any effort to ban exports to the U.S. or to tax our own people and businesses on goods leaving Canada for the United States. Such tactics would hurt Canadians far more than Americans. We also continue Alberta’s call for the appointment of a border czar to coordinate the securing of our border against illegal migrants and drugs moving in both directions, and to achieve our nation’s 2% of GDP NATO commitment by 2027. These things should be done for the safety of all Canadians regardless of our trade dispute with the United States Despite the disappointment of today’s decision there is also an incredible opportunity before us as a nation. Canada can and must now come together in an unprecedented effort to preserve the livelihoods and futures of our people and expand our political and trade relationships across the globe. We can no longer afford to be so heavily reliant on one primary customer. We must stop limiting our prosperity and inflicting economic wounds on ourselves. Rather, we must unleash the true economic potential of our country, which possesses more wealth and natural resources than any other nation on earth.

@Martyupnorth_2 10 year expiration date. They beep and don’t stop. They are probably all the same age and all installed at once.

Last night three different carbon monoxide detectors went off in our house. A first for me. Today I bought a portable detector. Zero traces of CO. I'm at a loss to figure out what happened. Was there an extreme pressure event outside that pushed the furnace exhaust back into the house?

@chaduthf You grow some nice potatoes!

Soon to be waffle fry

@NickPloeg Sulphur dioxides…. Pollution damage.

@chaduthf Whatcha building?

That is a slick trailer

@chaduthf We use them to hold the soil down in Alberta 💨 😆

@pvg403 Why would you put rocks in the field😂

This thing looks awesome

@sweatystartup How much of the 8.6m are your other companies responsible for?

Big news: I'm buying controlling interest in a company at a $52 million valuation. 6x earnings. I'll be raising $20 million to make this happen. I'm looking for intros to family offices and individuals who typically invest $1m+ into operating companies. My DMs are open. (accredited only)

Be on the lookout. Stolen from sunnyside area north of Lethbridge!
