      Me too.My grand father was a big time paddy producer in Kerala India.There was no meecanization at that time and all the harvest was done manually for 3000 Acres.I always remember my grand father when I watch these big combines.This would have blown him away seeing these machines at work.

    Mike - Nice video. The plains of eastern Colorado certainly do lend themselves to these huge fields. And many combines (like many hands) make for light work. Thanks for sharing. I'm a retired Pastor living in Davenport, Iowa, but did live in Colorado Springs for a few years back in the 60s and 70s. Take care.

  • @leesteele9290
    @leesteele9290 5 років тому +7

    Two things kinda stand out to me, that round and round harvest pattern is sort of unusual and the fact I think these guys are actually driving those machines , pretty novel today especially for an operation this size!! I'm sure whoever is in charge of the harvest has everything figured out for efficientincy but I'm surprised they don't have wider platforms , crop looks pretty light but wow what huge fields and beautiful geography!! I've certinaly never seen this much iron in one field ,thanks very much for taking us along!!

    • @FROSTY2588
      @FROSTY2588 5 років тому +1

      Lee Steele it’s probably a nightmare to drive back and forth with 12 combines, round and round seems it would work out for lots of machines in the same field. I’ve heard rumors from a Facebook group about this farm in Colorado. Apparently one field is 10k acres

    I farm in Colorado and this operation is known far and wide for their mammoth wheat harvest combine fleets. They used to run red combines and they would get 20 some new combines every year. I was told it was a special deal with Case where these guys would put some hours on the machines and then they would be shipped to Australia as “used machinery” in order to get around a tariff on new machines

  • @ThatRoadrunner
    @ThatRoadrunner 5 років тому +19

    Very nice work, Mike! As a European, it's great to get such a close look at how you guys do things across the pond. The operation is absolutely massive. The limited commentary in the video really puts this down as a sort of amateur documentary, which definitely adds to the whole thing in a positive way.
    Thoroughly enjoyed, subscribed, and looking forward to seeing the rest of your work. Thanks a lot!

    This video gives us city slickers a better appreciation of a loaf of bread. The costs that are being incurred just to produce the basic ingredients that go to the miller, the baker, the retailer to get to our table. And in between each step the trucker. Each step also has huge costs for equipment, labor and energy.
