  • Today is day number two of picking corn and it was a big day! This is part two of this big harvest day. We had a very successful and efficient day of harvest. The New Idea corn Picker and International 686 ran great. The Oliver 1650 was hauling loads all day.
    If you haven’t already make sure to go watch part one, and stay tuned for the end of the day in part three! Thank you all for watching! Happy Harvest!

    Aaron I have an idea for you. Make a box that can be moved with the forks of the skid steer
    that has a bottom door. you can place it under the elevator to catch the kernels.
    Enjoy watching corn harvested on the cob.

You definitely take pride in your farm with all the hard work you do. Nothing against farmers expanding at all. But small family farms are what started the creameries and co-ops. But never recognized

    Lots of memories. Doing ear corn. Several farmers in our area lost their hands and arms in the pickers. So much easier to clean out when leaving it running. Bad deal never safe to get off tractor with the PTO running 🤢🤮😱

  • @JEFFEMERSON-q5w
    @JEFFEMERSON-q5w Місяць тому

    Could you not put your small trailer under your convoyer and catch the shelled corn falling out instead of the tarp where you have to pick the tarp up and empty it? You said picker was leaving more corn on ground than a combine, how many kernels you guess wound be in a 12 by 12 inch square? That would tell how many bushels per acre the picker is leaving over what a combine would. We really enjoy watching your videos. Thanks

    Good looking corn! I have parked the grinder/mixer under the elevator and ground the shell corn as it fell out, kept tractor (JD4020) at mid idle and infeed auger slow (Gehl 120) and used 3/8 screen. An afternoon of unloading corn made for enough for a batch of feed, and I didn't have to shovel any. Next morning just finished out the batch with the other stuff and unloaded mixer into bags or bin if there was room. Moisture was a bit high, but we fed it right away.

    I enjoyed watching the corn sliding down inside of the wagon. Am glad things are going pretty well.
    Really sorry that Mason couldn't have found his deer. Maybe some day you will get one and find the scar. My nephews like to hunt our corn fed deer. My father, brother and I all have an uncomfortable reaction to seeing blood. Too bad, because I always wanted to be a nurse, but that's life.
    I planted multicolored morning glory's once and as the years passed by, they all reverted to purple. They were a PAIN to get rid of as their roots can go down as much as 15 feet. Another plant (bindweed) has the similar characteristics, but with smaller white or pink flowers and smaller more pointed leaves. They are exasperating.
    Thanks.

    • @MorganOtt-ne1qj
      @MorganOtt-ne1qj 10 місяців тому

      Bindweed is (unpleasant curse words), and makes Morning glory look like a mere nuisance. Both are late season germination seeds, so you have to make another pass with the sprayer to whack them. 🙄👎
