*I'm constantly blown away by the sheer power and corn-eating prowess of these forage harvesters. They're truly remarkable machines! Fantastic video* 👍🏻
What an impressive machine, almost 1000 HP. Huge engine thanks for sharing BTP
Always amazed at the power and the eating of corn those forage harvesters display. Quite the machine! Awesome video 👍🏻.
It won’t be long before they surpass 1,000 hp. Corn takes allot of horse power to process.
@@bigtractorpower Krone Big X 1180 got 1080hp. 24,2L Liebherr engine
"Incredible!"
super video shot thanks
That’s a fantastic for harvester it still just amazes me how fast it can chew corn
The drone video you do is outstanding. I enjoy seeing the varied landscapes as well as the equipment at work.
Drones give a great perspective. My friend Josh filmed this one.
What a beautiful song that machine sings.
Forage harvesters have a great sound in corn.
Can you imagine a recording of this monster over a set of loud speakers over a Halloween corn maze?!!
Looks like Andy hourigans uncles new chopper he had one burn up this summer
That’s what I thought too when I saw the silage boxes on the trucks
Pretty sure it is Andy's uncle
It is his uncle John
This is the new one. It was cool to get to feature a new 50th anniversary model.
970HP?! What a beast
The Krone Big X 1180 has even 1156 hp.... 😉
I expect the next generation of forage harvester from Deere will reach 1,000 hp.
The krone big x 1180 1156hp
Those truck boxes looks like the ones Andy from Farm Fixing & Fabrication build. It's a great channel. I'm pretty sure that was Andy driving.
This is Andy’s uncles farm.
Hey thanks for the drone footage of us man! Great video
Thank you for having Josh out to film this year. Impressive chopper.
Nine hundred horse power, that is incredible, and one million dollars for that chopper. Great video, I always enjoy your videos. Thanks for taking me along, and making them.
Thank you for watching. The 9900 is impressive harvester.
Looks awesome, thanks for the great vids 👍👍
Thank you for watching.
Many Thanks Buddy For This Awesome Video!! Many Greetings Sebi!!
Thank you Sebastian.
Always look forward to your video's, interesting content and clear to the point narration!
Thank you for watching. It is fun to track down these machines to share here on CZcams.
Deere also introduced the 160hp 5200 in 1972.The JD dealership my father worked during the 1970s sold a brand new 5400 to Roy Everetts of Schuylerville,New York
awesome video!
Another great video..!!
Great chopping video, I follow Andy and was glad to see you there, was hoping you'd talk to him, but it was still great thanks for sharing
I have a video I plan to publish at Andy’s farm. This is Andy’s uncles farm in this video.
Crazy power!
One of the biggest on the market.
That is one powerful chopper😁💪 cool to see it eating the corn👍👍
The 12 row 772 with 956 hp behind it clears off the acres in a hurry.
Andy and Hourigans? I really like watching his Farming Fixing and Fabricating videos.
probably his uncle
Andy's chopper doesn't have duals.
That’s his uncle
@@philrogers8160 he used one like that for a while when his was down.
This is Andy’s uncle.
Hello everyone good vidéo big tractor power
Hi. Thank you for watching.
Great video brother
👋 hey 👋 from Dexter,Missouri
Super awesome video.
Have a super awesome night🌉 be safe.
Amazing machine
The 9900 eats up the corn acres in a hurry
My neighbor runs 6 of the JD 9900 choppers. Chopping wheat, triticale, Sorghum, and Corn. This area around Dalhart TX is about to push NY back to 4th in US milk production.
That is an impressive line up.
Impressive machine. We run a John Deere 6910 chopping corn, hay, triticale, and sorghum sudangrass, on our 100 cow dairy.
I lived on a dairy farm in Amsterdam NY as a child that used 2 old International 10 wheel dump trucks that usually were chained to a 2 row corn chopper pulled by a 5020. And taken to a big( at that time ) bunk silo. Times have changed. The farm soon sold the milking cows and just went to crops and hay and some beef.
Wow a 5020 chopping into IH trucks. Very cool. Was the 5020 open station?
@@bigtractorpower Yes
I live in the Town of Florida, just south of Amsterdam.
@@Darren.R LOL, that's where I lived . Back in the 70s. Holloway Bros farm. Wow
Over on Millers Corners Rd, I go that way occasionally when I go shopping in Esperance. I love it over that way, the views looking towards the river are awesome.
Good video.
Thank you for watching.
Great video! Can't believe that Andy didn't want 2 talk....lol. Love the channel and content!
This is Andy’s uncles farm. I do have a video filmed at Andy’s farm. Stay tuned.
That's some piece of kit!!!!
Thank you for watching.
We run a 2018 JD 8300 forage harvester and it’s been a great machine.
Very nice. I saw an 8200 this summer. The 8100 to 8500 is a good size. Do you run an 8 row head.
@@bigtractorpower we just run a 6 row head.
@@bigtractorpowerThese John Deere forage harvesters are not manufactured in Moline, Illinois? They're German?
Great Vid Hourigans have several Milk farms up in NY Uncles brothers quite the operations🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🌽🌽👍👍
Great dairy farm family 👍👍
We run a 2014 John Deere 7480. Harvesting corn silage, haylage and spring cover crops either wheat or triticale.
Very nice. I just saw a 7480 and 7980 suiting next to each other on a John Deere dealer lot.
👍 👍
Nice
Thank you for watching.
Early this fall had a family gathering at the farm our land is rented out to a bigger dairy farm a they just started chopping chopping corn Claas self propelled. My older brother An older sister dad, mom an I happen to be sitting outside a watched them. I said how things have changed since the era of dad having the one row chopper. Got a good laugh !
It’s amazing how chopping has changed. I had a neighbor with a one row Hesston chopper in the late 70’s. It was neat to watch but a field took a week to chop.
@@bigtractorpower yes, I remember when we started chopping looking at the field an my dad’s chopper ohh this gonna take a while.
We run a 7300 and a 7550. Mainly chop grass and maize (corn) and little bit of barley
Those are Andy's silage boxes on those trucks.
That’s Andy’s uncle’s farm that is why the trucks look like his
@@laneluckhardt5510 yeah, I recognized the boxes and I zoomed in on the truck and saw the hourigan name on there and figured it must be somebody in the family.
FFF built silage boxes. Good solid silage hauling.
@@bigtractorpower Side note: The last two years building boxes Andy's daughters have done 99% of all the fabrication welding
Hello Jason, how are you doing? I do hope you’re having a good weekend.
Hi. I am doing well. Thank you for watching this big harvester.
Pretty good group of people to work for and with!
👍👍
I agree……. We used to work together..
1977 when dad broke his leg milking cows. had two neighbor s one came to cut windrow green oats other neighbor had a john deere 5400 jd chopper.
The 5400 is a cool chopper. It was a stand out in the 70’s. Thank you for sharing.
John deere and class be the main machines here in ireland for grass silage
Was a great video we have a custom op come do our silage an he uses a claas 960 I think
Those guys chop an unbelievable amount of silage. Have you seen all the bunkers on Andy's farm? The farm I work for chops with a JD 8600 and we run for at least a couple weeks to fill 2 bunkers that probably combined aren't as big as one of those on Andy's farm.
That is Andy's uncle's farm.
👏👏👍👍👌👌
Thank you for watching.
They need to put that engine in a 4wd tractor call it the 9RX 960
Give it a few years. 4wds are getting bigger.
We were big time with our AC WD and a 2 row. My how times have changed.
Hey Jason, if you ever lack for content I have acouple neighboring farms in the lower part of the Fingerlakes Region that are huge! The one has something going on constantly from manure hauling to earth moving, I think they own every tractor model under the sun!
Thank you Dave. Send me an email at toytractortimes@gmail.com
It's fun to watch those big machines eat, Do you know why they are running duals in front vs the LSW tires most seem to have on them now days? Kinda neat to see that.
LSW tires might not be ideal in corn. Lots of sharp stalks wearing the tires. Duals space the rows. Duals also can offer better traction in certain soils than an LSWs. In KY where I live triple tires are perfected over LSW on the red clay. No one runs LSW here.
@@bigtractorpower Maybe the correct term for the tires I am talking about would simply be the large metrics that would match the ones being run on the rear of this FH in this video. Andy on the farming, fixing and fabricating channel runs them on his JD FH up there in NY. Never seen triples on a FH. That would be really cool, to see, or were just talking about on the tractors etc like you've shown on here before?
Hello! Such an amount of horses eat lots of green...
The 9900 with the 12 row head eats up the acres.
@@bigtractorpower 👌
So $1,040,000 in the field, wow. scale of equipment is crazy today. i bought a clean and straight NewHolland 880 to make cow chow, paid $600 will probably put a couple grand into bearings belts n chains but it's all i need for 120 cows
The 880 is a solid chopper. 👍👍
4:35 The ‘70s model looks so much better.
The 70’s was a great decade.
@@bigtractorpower My Dad bought a john deere self propelled in 1974 for his custom operation. He had two JD pull type #38 choppers and put up 200 to 250,000 Tones a season
What is the engine torque rating?
Something sounds like there's a belt slipping real bad. :o
Most choppers have that squeak to them. It’s a normal sound.
It's probably the corn head that you hear. There's blades that spin like a circular saw to cut the corn, they make a high pitched sound when going through the corn.
Q. was that andys uncles chopper that burned thi summer?
Yes.
Those look like "Hourigan" Dairy trucks
It is Andy’s uncles farm.
@@bigtractorpower It was the silage boxes and tires on the trucks that gives it away. LOL. I've been watching Farming, rfixing and fabricating ever since i moved here to New York in 2018. You do great work.
Better have 20 trucks to keep it moving chop it!
It fills trucks in a hurry.
Hi Jason. Impressive machine! 100/125 acres per day doesn't seem to much, considering the capacity it has, is this number ok?
This about the same acreage as class 9 combine with a 12 row head. It’s not only the harvesting capacity but the field size, how many trucks are hauling the crop away and how far they have to travel.
I’d absolutely take that. Like Jason said, logistics matter
… And most: the yield. In 25-30T/acre corn this machine will comfortably do 3000-3500 ton in a 14 hour day
The acres / day depend mostly on yield, trucks and size of fields
Nice upgrade. Their old one burnt
The 9900 is impressive
That's interesting that these machines are actually built overseas in Germany, I thought at first that John Deere had their factories for building these behemoths in the US, similar to their combines.
The 5400 to the 5820 were built in Otumwa, IA. The 5830 moved production to Germany. All brands of sp choppers are built in a 30 mile radius in Germany and Belgium. Claas, Krone, New Holland and John Deere.
Noah Ater: Unfortunately soon (this winter) there will be damn all built in Germany due to the breathtaking stupidity of their politicians relying solely on Russian energy and then adopting the suicidal policy of imposing bans and restrictions on those same Russian energy exports to their country. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you. I hope smart level headed Germans prevail.
Leibherr ?? expensive and ANIMALS too
BTP, can you put together a video on big gasoline tractors of the 1960's and 1970's? Nothing under 60 hp...
I would like to. It would take a few years of filming to try to track those down. I am always looking for unique tractors.
@@bigtractorpower I know where an IH 656 gas is in Iowa, but I'm guessing you have closer ones in Kentucky.
Tall about hog out a swath of corn!!!
Not to sound morbid but what happens if they come across a dead deer carcass? Do they just mow on through it? Be awful hard to see it in time.
No they would go around it. They would not want that in the cow feed.
Pretty nice way to spend a $1 million pluse.
It is a big investment to feed the farm for a year. It helps beat the weather and harvest a peak times.
@@bigtractorpower oh yea pluse great way to make money custom chopping
Are you going to go to the other Hourigan farm sometime in the future
Already filmed from the field to the pile 😁
3800 JD pull type
Very nice. What do you power the 3800 with?
@@bigtractorpower JD-4320
Is that farm location in Elbridge NY? If so i have delivered feed to their farm!!!! Brings me back when I lived in CNY!!!!
Million dollar choppers? Yikes we thought the 5830 john deere chopper was a lot of money in the late 80s!!!!
I made a video on a 5830 a few years ago. I want to say it was $120,000. Just a few more zeros for todays big chopper. The 5830 is a cool chopper. One of my favorites.
Clauss is Cryin Now I like Greene
Don’t understand estimate the 925 hp CLAAS 990 on Terra Tracs. I have a video on the 990 posted at czcams.com/video/RR_j8LGyC2Y/video.html
That's a lot of silage so animals must be hungry.
Not to tall of corn can hardly see cutter in our fields
It was a drought year in New York this year. The corn suffered from a lack of water for a month.
I pray he has corn next year to actually put that bad boy too work bad ass machine
@@mikedrieth3070 hopefully 2023 will be a good growing year.
HEY YOU MASSAGE
Over $1 million worth of machine how many cows does he have to milk to pay for that
A few lol
Check out Farming, Fixing, Fabricating videos, and watch the one about the new barn. Andy tells the number of cows in just one of their barns.😃
The main question is how efficient is the harvest speeding along 12 rows at a time making feed at the peak quality for an entire years worth of cow chow.
That's pretty good aiming. Have you compared the differences of forage choppers with American vs European German made John Deere and Claas?.
