My father ran a custom chopping operation back in 1974 to 1980's. He had 2 John Deere #38 pull types pulled by a 4020 and 4520 John Deere both with turned up fuel pumps on them.and a 1 yr old John Deere 3 row self propelled. The black smoked rolled when working 30 ton per acre corn silage.
Back then it was a "Big" operation. He chopped about 200,000 tons per season in Eastern Washington State. Boy have things changed since those days.
Choppers are nice machines👍😁 corn harvest action for cattle is always cool to watch😉👍
Thanks for the video👍
I love forage harvesting vids brings me back to the good ole days
😁👍👍
These are some of my favorite ag work videos to watch. These and heavy tillage work.
Mine too 👍👍
I'm always amazed at the appetite of those forage harvesters. Thanks Jason 👍.
They eat right through it.
Thanks for taking us along. The price of those choppers WOW, I didn't realize they were almost as much as a combine. Great video.
Silage cutting brings back memories. Years ago when Doves were more plentiful here in W.Ky, fresh cut silage fields were a great place to hunt .
😁👍👍
High power Claas corn harvesting 👍👍💪
That was a John Deere 9600i. Corn chop dust gave it a Claas paint job.
@@bigbird5365 oh, i am sorry 😃👍
In my opinion, I sort of think that forage harvesters do a much better job than combines. But still love both!!
🌽🐄🚜
Great Video! Probably the best I've seen so far this harvest season.
Forage harvesters are much more satisfying to watch than combines, in my opinion. Something about watching the corn get pulled into the header....
these machines are truly amazing thanks for sharing!!!!!
Thank you for watching.
Thanks for sharing how you get silage done. Way back, we had a one-row Gehl chopper 🤓 with corn silage going into a trench silo to help get beef cattle through the winter. Great feed, the smell and the steam rolling in the winter time. Quite a machine taking 8 rows, handling a lot of material.
Farming literally is a very expensive occupation in terms of equipment amazing thank you
It’s an industrial process for sure.
The general public has no clue of the prices of equipment to put food on their table.
@@MaryWehmeier agreed I am not a farmer myself but I like machinery and I looked at some prices over combine Or a large tractor my first thought was wow
I could be wrong, but what little research I could manage, showed all the major self propelled forage harvesters being made overseas, mainly Europe. John Deere made in Germany. New Holland self propelled forage harvester built in Belgium. Fendt in Germany also. Many brands I cannot even pronounce the name so I know it's a safe bet that it is foreign. These guys have perfected this technology and these machines. Incredible what machines can do now vs just 20 years ago. Thanks for the video and always enjoy listening when you give a brief history of the machine and/or company and the specs of the equipment and where it is manufactured.
Have you thought about writing a book? Lots of pics and specs with some history thrown into the mix.
That sound of them reving and winding up brings back memories.
Always loved silage season were I helped farmers with silage and in my many years working at the dealership and helping farmer repair there forage harvesters! Thanks for the video, very nice! 👍
Very cool. Thank you for watching.
Choppers are nice machines👍😁 corn harvest action is always cool to watch😉👍
Thanks for the video👍👍
"Nothing Runs Like A Deere"
Sure beats our one row Gehl chopper on a JD 4030 back in the day. Thanks for the vid buddy.
I would love to film a combo like that. My neighbor growing up had a 1 row Hesston on a Ford 9000.
@@bigtractorpower I'll let you know if I see any, in SW Illinois next to Renner Stock Farm
Man thats one heck of a farm! Love seeing the videos.
I love john deere harvesting Machine
1. That single stalk that missed the chopper. 2. That little horse!
The videos keep getting better and better 👍🏻
Great video on the John Deere 9600i.
Thank you for watching.
Some of that overhead drone footage is so perfect it almost looks like CGI!
Awesome video! Thanks!
Thank you for watching.
Amazing bigtractorpower 💪😁
Very quiet inside cabin. Love all about 🚜 Farming
👍👍
Thanks for another great video!
It was fun to film. Thank you for watching.
What a wonderful video. Such quality. Thank you.
Thank you for watching.
@@bigtractorpower My great-grandfather, my grandfather and myself all thank you for these videos. They are wonderful. God bless.
Going to be starting just within a week with our claas 940. We use tractors with forage boxes to haul our crop
Awesome Video Buddy!!
Those are cool looking machines chopping corn. John Deere has the best farm equipment made in America since 1837.
👍👍
That was a great video Jason!! When it first started I thought they were Kronne machines. The dust changes that JD green. I really liked at 14:40 when a chopper is making the final pass. You show the tall corn and can see a glimpse of the tractor and wagon, the huge chopper goes by the camera and suddenly everything is gone out of frame. It looked really cool.
Thank you for watching. I have a Krone video on the way. I am glad you liked the fade out view. When I’m filming I’m always looking for a great way to wrap up the video.
Looking forward to getting to the field with my 850 claas and 8 row head.
Nice chopper.
👍 Thanks
Thank you for watching.
..what I liked was the cabin was almost sound proof..that has got to be important..🚜
It is very important for sure.
👌Wonderful video!! Oh I like the sound when chopper RpM is going down under full load, smell of frech chopped forage and combusted diesel. Had yesterday that discussion why nobody does make a deodorant or after shave of these smells..... 😋
Now if they had cattle, they could loose them on the field to eat the stubble and poop and fertilize the soil and bring back good dirt. Then winter them over with silage. My Uncle was a very large dairy farm owner and 12 of his 13 grown children and he owned a Co-Op and shared equipment between each other. What a deal they had.
Fresh cut silage love the smell
👍👍
Loved the video of the harvest. The thing that struck me first is how neat the ground is after harvest. There is practically no weeds in that field.
That got me thinking that maybe you should do an interview with this farmer how they managed to get a weed free field. Here in pakistan we have never gotten a weed free field especially in corn during summer.
I love seeing silage being cut!! These silage cuters don't leave any corn ears on the ground!! That's a big improvement over the cutters that came out 40 to 50 years ago...
They do a good job. You find an ear every once and a while. Over all they leave little behind.
I do have to say having 12 wagons is really nice to have don't see many farms with that many wagons
12 is a bunch but most days there could be more needed as they get farther from the farm.
Great video!
Thank you for watching.
Amazing
Thank you for watching.
Nice looking machines
👍👍
Good video silage not my favorite stuff. Was there if any videos from Garrett farm this year haven’t seen any yet all that big equipment & the planning it takes to keep all going efficiently is amazing to me
Fantastic video….. great sounds!!! Is this 2021 maize-silage…… seems very to us here in 🇮🇪!!!
I'm about to head out for our 3rd day of chopping. We run a JD 8600i and haul with 5 tandem axle trucks with silage beds.
Awesome video BTP
Thank you for watching.
👍👍
Thank you Alex.
It would be neat if you could show how they handle the harvested corn and make it into silage.
It's weird, they've just introduced the new 9500i and 9600i in Germany.. Didn't know they made them before. They use a brand new Deere 18 Liter engine which doesn't need DEF which is a big pro in my opinion.
We are starting our corn chopping in 2 weeks. We have a claus 990 with a 12 row head new this year. Takes a month to chop all 4500 acres
Impressive production with no time for breakdowns
This is a horsepower intense process. Wow.
It’s neat seeing it all at work.
nothing like that sound, our farm uses this chopper as well
We chop our corn with a Claas Jaguar 890 with trucks and wagons. We have many different tractors that we’ve used on the wagons.
Looks like most of the country's ground. Hard and dry. Makes for a long day bouncing around in the cab.
The choppers were running great the wagons definitely had some bounce. We had 3 inches of rain over a few days right after this video was filmed.
One note: I think some farmers outfit their harvester with a wideangle camera on the spout, so they can monitor the filling off the truck/box/wagon without turning their head all day.
When your trailer is significantly louder than your tractor...
When they are empty they bounce along.
Wow, fields are really rough,, also never could figure out why they cut so high. We never left a stalk longer than 4".
That's a lot of stuff going in that machine
With something like this and grain carting, machine sync would be great to have I think.
It would. I don’t know if that has been developed yet. There is allot more movement with choppers.
Amazing technology and incredible cost to own and operate one of the forage harvesters. I grew up on a farm in the 70's with a two row chopper and two boxes to fill cement silos. Mind boggling at how fast and efficient harvesting has become in order to be profitable.
I wish I could go back and film in the 70s. My neighbor chopped with a ‘76 IH 1066 and an NH 892 forage harvester and two Lamco forage wagons. In the 80’s they went to a Case 4690 and a 4 row NH 1600 and a DuAl dump wagon. They seemed big time.
@@bigtractorpower my dad worked on a small dairy farm NJ, they chopped corn with a JD 620, NH 717 chopper, one JD chuck wagon and one NH chuck wagon. It would take all day to chop what these machines can do in a hour.
Great video and Nice John Deere’s! 👍
Thank you for watching.
My cousin uses a JD 5730 and 3 H&S 7+4 HD wagons here in Southern Pennsylvania.
Very cool. I am a 5730/5830 fan.
I help on a farm that runs an old uni chopper which is a new idea chopper. Usually run 4 h and s chopper boxes. Pull the boxes with a Massey 1085 and new holland ts110 also will probably pull with the jd4230 we just early spring this year. All gets put in a cement upright silo. I have a friend that runs a big FR780 new holland forage harvester for a custom farming outfit. They haul with 5 straight trucks and 3 tractors 2 with Meyer wagons and 1 with an h and s wagon. They provide silage for 5 or 6 farms in the area.
Very cool on both. The Uni is extra cool.
Like 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷
😁👍
These videos of farming in Kentucky leave me with a lot of questions. Like is farming like THIS common there? I farm in Colorado and have never seen silage hauled with anything other than trucks. This just seems pretty radical to me
This farm wraps all their silage in bags. The wagons are a quick way to fill the bag and move right back to the field.
wow we used a 2 row new holland chopper and wagons so we blew it up into a silo this would have saved us a lot of time 😂
And I always enjoy getting a chance to still see silos in use. Chopping has changed allot.
Was there a video of wheat harvest with your friend Matt this year? Will we be seeing corn harvest with them as well? Will you be at Husker Harvest Days in Grand Island, Nebraska? September 14th-16th.
I will be at Farm Progress this year. I would like to get to Husker Harvest Days some day. I have corn planting and wheat harvest with Matt but have not had a chance to publish it yet.
Hello! Two Big Green in sea of green.
😁👍👍👍
@@bigtractorpower 😊👌
We have an outfit come in with a Claas self propelled chopper do our corn but I bought an old NewHolland Sperry 880 and I plan to rebuild it and restore it to do our own
Very cool. Classic choppers are neat machines.
Chopping corn
✌️🇧🇷✌️
Nothing runs like a Deere. If it ain't green... It ain't mean!!!
👍👍
From Europe, was the farmer filling a pit or towers 🤔
Miss the scrolling text with all the information for each machine
Sure doesn’t take long to cut down the field of corn with two of those working
What is the yellow tubular extension protruding out in front of the cutting head for?
A guide to and brace over the row sensor.
bigtractorpower, are you going to be at the Farm Progress Show this yr?
Yes I will on Tuesday.
@@bigtractorpower I might see you there then, because as of now I'm planning on going Tuesday.
@10:10 on the top portion of the video, what is that yellow metal rod that is shaped like an arrow pointing forward?
It is a guidance bar. The gps sensor is bellow it.
@@bigtractorpower cool, thanks!
What did they work that ground with a buck rake
Hot dry July day when this was filmed. Ground does not have much give on a 95 degree day.
Any idea as to approximate trailer weight loaded?
The wagon holds ten tons of crop material. The wagon it’s self according to the brochure weighs 20,720 lbs.
Is this Robey farms in Kentucky?
Yes.
Hello italy
Hi. Thank you for watching. 😁👍👍🇮🇹
No joon deere work silage fendet. Katana trattore 🚜. Fendet
How Do they empty the wagons without the pto OR hydrolics.
They switch it to a tractor in the field so the chopper can keep on rolling although it's strange to see it this way as in my area it's followed by tractors with chopper boxes or semis with dump or chopper trailers
@@maxhallman1036 I mean. Non of the tractors have connected the pto with the boxes. Why disconnect them?
@@JoanterWeele it's not too hard to hook one up
Very interesting looks like the whole stalk is shredded do the corn cobs get separated at some point in the process??
No separation. It’s all chopped then goes through a processor that cracks all the kernels open and breaks up the cob
Sweet corn harvest in the Pacific NW was pretty cool also. 24/7 till done rain or shine.
A Forage Harvester is kind of like a wood chipper the entire plant and the ears on it go right through an hour processed in the small chips.
I have some Wisconsin sweet corn harvest on the way with the new OXBO 12 row.
get to da chapa
Rough field
These guys are seriously concerned about cutter head hours, appears that they were disengaging between wagons and even on the headlands
I don’t think they’re worried about the hours will just the way I’ve always seen them chop
I use a 3970 john deere 2 row and pull a dump wagon then we dump it in the truck .
Very cool. What tractor do you run on it?
It feels like there’s a lot of waste/spillage when the silage shoots into the trailers. Is the loss not enough for the farmers to care all that much?
They try to limit as much as they can. Some farmers are more picky than others.
You are going to have some loss but I felt this was a pretty clean operation. The wind is going to catch a bit and you might miss here and there but it’s minimal. No worse than grain loss on a combine. You just don’t see it on the combine until the volunteer crop sprouts.
Not enough to feed a heifer.
This farm has enough tonnage for silage as is... they can handle a but of loss
What is the difference between the 8000i and 9000i JD forage harvester series?
The 8000 is the small body and the 9000 is a large body.
@@bigtractorpower thank you!!! greetings from México, once you give us the video of history of New Holland pull type forage harvesters please
Uh…..you sure? The 9000 series is the next newer series after the 8’s I thought.
@@MrMagnum7220 the 9000 is newer but Deere still makes the 8000 and they are a smaller frame. These 9600 have Deere engines, the larger 9700,9800, and 9900 have Liebherr engines.
You are correct. My assumption was wrong.
How many tons per hour?
I would guess 200 to 250 tons an hour. They are running three baggers. With unload time and travel times on the wagons I would say they get 20 or a little more wagons loads in an hour.
What’s with that stuffed animal hanging on the back of the wagon?
I have no idea. It was a stuffed horse toy. I am guessing an inside joke.
heht hets aar toe smal hier we doe 12 rous
Man you're wasting a lot on over spraying in the trailer.
You may say it's not that much but over the whole plot of land that's a lot of good material been wasted.
its not wasted, nutrient goes back into soil
Not wasted it goes back into the soil plus there's still alot of tonnage going in those chopper boxes
Give me a 5020 John Deere 2 row Chopper and and I'll get the job done
