2 Minutes with the Farmer: Complete Hydroponic Fodder System From Seed to Fodder!!!

in #dtube6 years ago


Today on 2 Minutes with the Farmer we are going to give you the tour of the complete hydroponic fodder system. We start with a small wheat seed and we end with some really nice wheat grass fodder. I hope you enjoy the process.

Thank you for spending 2 minutes with me!

Howdy sir Farmer! hey that looks wonderful and you can tell those calves love that stuff but what does that do for them? I mean what is the purpose of feeding them those sprouted wheat mats?

It is high in nutrients and highly digestible. to be perfectly honest we are not 100 percent sure if it is worth it or not. We are still experimenting with it

ok well it's a very interesting endeavor so it's going to be great to see if it pays off. I'd be using it for salads at least! lol.

Impressive. I'm surprised each tray is 25 pounds of feed. That seems like quite a lot. Maybe you can keep expanding and start growing other stuff to sell to the public.

We have had some horse people asking about it. We will have to wait and see

Seems like that is just some extra nutrients for them, is that the main purpose?

I see you said to @janton that it might not be worth it, what would make it not worth it? Cost of seeds? Lighting?

It is just a supplement for them. We have been weighing the calves to see if they gain more weight. We are seeing if the extra time and money are worth the weight gain

Awesome invention for minimal effort and space :) Are you also eating this ? :P
