    How is the harvest yield measured? By weight or other means? eg: bushels

    • @prezzle208
      @prezzle208 8 років тому +1

      they measure potatoes by sacks which is similar to bushels but it's 100 pounds of potatoes. then they separate them into counts so 60 count 70 count etc.. For this they take 100 pounds of potatoes that equal that certain amount of potatoes. So 70 potatoes that equal 100 pounds.

    • @theburbankblues
      @theburbankblues  6 років тому +2

      myke collins it allows the second tractor to load twice as many potatoes. This fills the trucks faster.

    • @playwme3
      @playwme3 6 років тому +1

      First tractor was just making a path for the semi trucks. That’s why he started in the middle of the field.

    • @daddio7249
      @daddio7249 5 років тому

      OK, all the others are right but the windrower gets potatoes out of ground without needing a side elevator and boom so it is cheaper to buy and run and makes the harvester and trucks more efficient.

  • @mtri56
    @mtri56 6 років тому

    I see there's one lifter with an arm that puts the potatoes directly into the trucks. There's also another lifter that doesn't have the arm, and I saw it as putting the potatoes directly into a valley between the rows of unharvested potatoes. My question is, how do those potatoes get picked up?

    • @theburbankblues
      @theburbankblues  6 років тому

      mtri56 the lifter without the arm is a wind-rower. When the potato lifter digs the rows on either side of the potatoes that have been put on the ground, they get picked up and conveyed into the truck. Thanks for watching.

    • @chuckmid
      @chuckmid 5 років тому +1

      Rik Ham. For potatoes like Russets that are used for French fries, the windrower will be used all of the time. For table stock potatoes like Reds that have to be handled like a baby so they look nice in the grocery store, the windrower is only used to open up the field to make room for the trucks.
