Rice Rice Baby “It’s good for you and the chicks love it too!”

Youngsters from Arkansas Rice Farm Rap Their Version of Ice Ice Baby

By , Farms.com

The year of 2012 could be known for agriculture’s newest farm-fresh commodity – musical parodies of popular songs with an agricultural twist. I just saw a new one today and thought I would share it with all my farming friends. This one is called “Rice Rice Baby” and features a couple of little guys rapping their hearts out to Vanilla Ice’s “Ice Ice Baby”.

It’s great to see the next generation of farmers engaging the public more than ever; and sharing their messages with non-agricultural folks in the digital realm. I know for myself I personally appreciate this new approach to information sharing – using popular tunes that everyone can relate to, while singing, or in this case, rapping about rural life and growing food for the world.

Enjoy the video below of the Searcy boys from Wynne, Arkansas rapping about rice farming.

Step into the field for a full day of spring fieldwork as this farm plants corn using classic Allis-Chalmers power near Arcanum, Ohio. In this video, the farm is working ground with an Allis-Chalmers 8050 pulling a Salford field cultivator and Brillion Culti-Packer to prepare the seedbed. Right behind, an Allis-Chalmers 7020 handles planting duties with a 12-row White planter, putting this year’s corn crop in the ground. You’ll see a mix of aerial drone footage and ground-level views capturing all the action, along with a voiceover that dives into the history and legacy of these two Allis-Chalmers tractors. It’s a great look at how reliable, older equipment is still getting the job done during spring planting season. If you enjoy classic farm equipment, corn planting, and real-world field action, this one is for you.
