    Absolutely excellent video, very refreshing that you don’t talk or narrate the video, rather you let the equipment speak for itself.

    The guys running those combines are a well practiced team. Cart drivers also love watching a good team. Working together

    Simply Amazing. I can remember my dad pulling a 2 row picker with an Intermational Super H tractor with a trailing wagon picking ear corn for shelling later. Then, in the late 1950's he bought an IH Combine with a 4 row corn header and an 8 ft wheat/soybean header. Combines of that day didn't have a climate controlled cab. He would have to button up his long sleeve work shirt, wear a bandana over his mouth and nose to avoid breathing "most" of the dust. You can't imagin just how dirty he would be at the end of the day.
    No semi's No grain carts, no grain bin storage, haul it all to the elevator with a 1951 Dodge truck with a 10ft grain bed. Old times were truly different. 😎

    Mike my friend absolutely 💯 amazing 👏 u done it again capturing our big class 11 X9-1100 combine harvesting corn wit our JD-14X 13.6 liter power tech pss 830's diesel engine wit twin vgt wastegate turbo chargers rated at 690hp to 743hp max at 1,900 rpm's most farmers have turned there combines horsepower back up to stock horsepower of 690hp to 743hp on our X9-1100's in stead what we at deere had them at for 2023 603hp to 690hp that's were the problem comes in at a bunch of our customers are complaining about the lost in horsepower cause there dumping on the go there kilowat meter would be in the red!!!

    They sure do a slick job.

    It was bought from the supplier that built the Dveere cart so it wasn't green .

    Takes a well-coordinated effort between the combine and cart operators...and a huge fleet of trucks to keep it all moving. For the volume of grain moving out of the combines and carts, definitely need to be on-target!!! Even with our 40 yr old machine, need to keep a close eye out when unloading into a parked wagon!!!

    Not mention in a field that is one mile long that is amazing .
    I would love to have a ride in these new combines they have today .
    Just to imagine how much technology goes into one of those combines and to handle that much corn at one time is just amazing .
    Thanks again Mike for all the work you put into your videos .
    I never get tired of watching them

I guess you need all that corn to sell to make the payments, do the Mtce., and feed fuel to that equipment. Very nice video and great field execution on the part of the operators.

    Very impressive operation. The x9 are eating a lot of corn! Do you know if they were pushing the marketed 7000 bushels per hour rating? Second, I was a little surprised that 10 trucks struggled to keep up with 2 combines. I figured distance between field and elevator, but noticed the trucks were only about 3/4 full. Any thoughts on that?

    • @farmhandmike
      @farmhandmike  Před 5 měsíci +2

      Trucks were not being filled to the max because they have to stay under 80,000 gross I imagine. Staying legal. I'm not sure on the bushel per hour here but I know one farm with an X9 cranking out over 6500 bushel per hour. I'd say these guys would be doing the same.

    • @drewl4762
      @drewl4762 Před 5 měsíci +10

      If one combine is running 6500 to 7000 bu/hr instant then they together are probably somewhere around 12,000 hr actual. That is a truck load every 5 minutes. If the trucks have a 15 mile drive one way that's around a 40 minute round trip meaning each truck is doing 1,500 bu/hr to the bins, that 15,000 an hour with all 10 running. It doesn't take but a small hold up here and there for the combines to get ahead of the trucks. As far as filling the trucks I'm sure all the carts have scales in them to get the truck filled where they like them which looked to be around 1,000 bushels because the 1100 grain carts where emptying the whole cart in a truck

    No need to back up with second combine opening up just keep going he's unloaded can make it through

      Actually there is a need for it. Sorry that you’re too ignorant to see it.

      Actually the first combine has to back up and move the end of the header. Both end snouts travel down the same spot between the rows

    Imo an X 9 is not that much faster on a 16 row than a Caseih 9250.

    It’s not very intelligent doing 1 mile rows this way. Most people would put in break cross rows at 1/2 mile and work both sides from there.

      I seriously don't know anyone that would put cross rows in the middle of a field like this.

      Please explain your logic! Only place to unload is on the end they’re unloading, so what do you suggest? Build a road in the middle? Lol

    The guys running those combines are a well practiced team. Cart drivers also love watching a good team. Working together

      Yes, I appreciate agricultural machinery operators. They are a group that works very well together.
