    This is incredible. Our farm cuts around 1500 acres of wheat per year. We have a case 2388 with a 30 ft Mac don header. And a John Deere 4440 pulling a little old grain cart. 2 old Mack tandem grain trucks and one old Mack semi pulling a Wilson trailer. It’s awesome to see all the big operations like this

    I have driven truck on the wheat harvest and it is busy I have driven combine on the wheat harvest I have also driven grain cart and the grain cart is by far the toughest especially in corn it is crazy how you do not get a break you are balls to the wall from the start of the day and you usually are the last to shut down the only time you get a breather is changing fields and he has to keep the whole thing going my favorite place is in the combine

  • @jamieshields9521
    @jamieshields9521 4 роки тому

    This vid is most interesting because this is my job during harvest, our fields up not big straight or flat in some cases what works is I only have chase one combine. Sometimes crop conditions can change which effects speed of unloading. Other farms I have chase you deal with older equipment that needs time to service so judging time in fixing problems and keeping up to combine can be tricky. Planning ahead where equipment needs to be, mother bin try be central then trying chase three different combines setups. In the dark is hairy as you can quickly lose your way, I place lights on field bin or call on UHF for truck put his lights on.
    We used CaseIH 215 Magnum pulling 18t chaser but had chaser hook up to NH TM 120 or McCormick 130
    Other farms TW15 to 23t chaser / JD 9520 to 38t chaser / CaseIH 9130 to JM 25t? chaser / Fendt 700 to 23t chaser

      They have to keep 4 for spares, they are John Deere. If they stop for lunch 3 out of the 7 will not start, the plastic parts will break. ( really ought to consider a little metal) All operating levers will be put in the most difficult place to use. The brake will not come loose. You can always be like the millennial farmer and buy New when they break. Brilliant new design putting the alternator inside the engine, easy to change when it goes bad.

      I grew up doing this making $5.15 per hour. During harvest season we would work +100 every week until we were done with the harvest. The farm paid no overtime so I would make just under $600 per week. This was about 20 years ago. While I do miss driving tractors, I don't miss the small pay for the long hours of work. Waking up early to do daily maintenance and going sleep late gets old really quick and, yes it looks fun but being inside a tractor for 16 hours a day is also very tiresome.
