Great Video of the gleaner tractor combines ,what a work horse !! Enjoy your ride alongside so much with a lot of these experienced old mountain climbers . God Bless the Farmers
Very cool. The R7 is a rare one. That is a combine I would like to see. I can’t wait to see the A2. I’m always hoping there will be more Gleaner combines at the show.
That rabbit at 1:39 barely got out f the way in time LOL I really like the Gleaner's for some reason. They may not be the biggest or most fancy new machine, but they do the job and do it well. You said it was 8 tons lighter than any other class 7 combine. Is that correct or did you mean 8000 lbs lighter? 8000lbs would be impressive, but 8 tons lighter is really impressive.
Amazing Centennial edition !! I was so lucky to join the Gleaner booth in FPS last year. Only a few days after meting @bigtractorpower in Rantoul. Cheers from France !
@@bigtractorpower maybe we will fly back to the USA, not sure for now. The Frenchys are ready to welcome you as we said when walking through the corn 😉
The farmer who owned land and farmed all around my residence and the town there when I was a kid used a Gleaner combine. In fact, he didn't have a barn big enough for it, so he parked it under another open-walled but roofed extension on a former farmer's barn, who continued living in the farmhouse on the other side of me after he retired. I really think farmers are going to need to do more to force prices of equipment down. Going from $375K to almost $600K for a combine when consumers cannot afford the inflated price of wheat bread every week is heading for a trainwreck.
Gleaner combines do a great job harvesting. Unfortunately food prices are extremely frustrating especially to the Farmer. A bushel of of wheat sells for $6.50 cents. A bushel of wheat will produce 90 loafs of bread at a retail price of $3.99 each. The farmer is not making the money.
@@bigtractorpower my neighboring farmers these days take 2-week Florida and Carolina vacations every year. Last year, one of them went on a cruise to the Bahamas. Sorry, but financially, they are not hurting! And they are not paying anything near what I pay per acre in property tax on my residence, farmers getting special exemptions that help them profit even more without negotiating a better deal on equipment price. I'm not anti-farmer, but I do steadfastly say they buy luxury equipment they could do without, and need to be better controllers of equipment costs, because it DOES find its way into food prices. (the bread I buy costs $1.75, not $3.99; bakers aren't getting rich) Farmers better start preparing for the trainwreck, because the percentage of consumers on fixed incomes is increasing.
@@rayrussell6258 So you think taxing farmers the same as you on every acre they farm will make you feel better? You must be a democrat. How about they lower the taxes you pay on your property? Pretty sad when people feel raising taxes on others will alleviate the burden they themselves feel... smh.
Gleaner are a fantastic combine. The headers are a huge detriment to combine. Headers from outside manufactures actually improve the gleaner performance.
The AC all crop combines were good harvesters. Very popular to harvest clover. I have a video of one harvesting corn in this video ua-cam.com/video/V87dZBOZTOQ/v-deo.htmlsi=b8ij4HOQ_eOOrQXp
I have always preferred the Gleaners. The last one we bought had the Agco engine instead of the Cummins. In was down on power and always derating. We are thinking we will have to try a new color after 40 years. ☹️
The excel in corn. Here is the same farm farm this video harvesting corn with the S97 last fall at ua-cam.com/video/KcOpw6SQ0Hk/v-deo.htmlsi=uVE9pbCZMOTWAhIx
In 14 years of filming every brand of North American combine on the market I will say Gleaner continues to produce the best sample and least loss in the field. If you are looking to harvest a large acreage and move allot of grain well Claas with two rotors on tracks really stand out nicely.
We’ve had new holland and now gone to claas. Good capacity and sample and acceptable losses. Here in Canada we struggle with weather getting in the way so conditions aren’t always in our favour.
Having filmed every brand of combine for 14 years I would say Gleaner by far has the least loss and cleanest sample of any combine. They do a great job.
Not a true rotary system............threshes the old conventional concept (nothing new here ) separates via rotary like all other modern brands. Would not be my chosen brand because not rotary by todays machines plus discharge not width of machine.. Video interesting. thanks !
Are you seriously smoking something? Rotaries have a concave in the front of the rotor then grain is separated as it flows through. Gleaner is as Rotary as it gets. The chopper actually acts as a vacuum and pull the straw out so it doesn't need a 3 foot wide chute. Plus it spreads the residue just as good as any other make. Wind direction affects all makes. Ill put money is the evenest distribution of any make.
Gleaners transverse is absolutely a rotary design. Crop is spun around the rotor starting at one end, then exiting the other. It’s just mounted sideways. Not at all to be confused with a conventional cylinder setup that threshes one pass across a 180 degree concave. Please do more research.
It’s not discharge width because it doesn’t need to be. The chopper is narrow but by then other mog has gone down through the accelerator roles down to the cleaning shoe. Gleaners intake to the rotor however is one of a kind because the crop doesn’t get squeezed narrower nor does the crop flow change direction. It may have a narrow feeder house, but that’s the width it also enters the rotor. The other brands (especially Case in this area), have a very wide feeder house that transitions (more like “jamsitions”) down to a much narrower width to enter the rotor.
@@daehlerfarms No not a true rotary. Nothing was said about not having a concave !!. Regardless ...... whether rotary or conventional both concepts thresh over a concave.
I love Gleaner. I still run my 1983 F3. That my Great Grandfather purchased new.
Wow what great family and brand history. Very cool.
Gleaners are the best combines made!
I always love seeing a gleaners going in the field.
Gleaners and wheat are a great match.
Wheat harvest and Gleaners....really awesome 👌🏻. The ride alongs and interviews are always appreciated Jason. 👍🏻
I like talking with farmers it gives a good perspective on why they chose to use the machines featured.
Great Video of the gleaner tractor combines ,what a work horse !!

Run R7 as my main horse, and a R50. Got a 83 L3 im going to fix up and just picked up a nice A2 with 3 row to take to Rantoul next year.
Very cool. The R7 is a rare one. That is a combine I would like to see. I can’t wait to see the A2. I’m always hoping there will be more Gleaner combines at the show.
Love to see the Gleaner Combines.
Me too 😁
Definitely one of my favourite combine of all time. I didn’t realize the weight savings with one of those 8 ton that’s quite a bit.
They are significantly lighter, and that really helps in a wet harvest or just in general for compaction
Your videos are always top-notch. The close-ups and in-cab views of the combines make it feel like we're right there in the field with you... 😉
good to see gleaners harvesting
They are a great part of wheat harvesting history.

They work great for us.
I spent many an hour on a Gleaner C-II and a G when working on a wheat harvest crew back in the day. One of the best summer jobs I ever had.
@@slundgr yeah we’re hoping to try our wheat tomorrow, we’ll be using our Gleaner M3 for it.
@@Hinesfarm-Indiana Good luck. Make hay while the sun shines as the saying goes.
@@slundgr oh yeah 👍👍
The Gleaner is my favorite machine, among the other United States of America made machines.
They are the best combines for the least loss and cleanest grain sample that I see each year.
I agree fendt is also top.
Looks great 👍. We’re hoping to try our wheat tomorrow, we’ll be using our Gleaner M3 for it.
Very cool. The M3 is a nice combine.
@@bigtractorpower yep it ran good for us this year, we finished wheat this past Tuesday.

Rantoul is a great event. Will you attend the 2025 show?

@@rayrussell6258 buy some land my freind and get after it🤑
I always like to see gleaners😁👍 silver combines are great👍👍
They are one of the best what harvesting machines on the market today.
We run a gleaner r72 and r62 with two 36 ft honey bee headers and in wheat and safflower. they are absolute beasts!
Big Fan of the gleaner. WAs excited when Brian's family farms got one but due to cost and them wanting to go to one combine only sad to see it go.
In filming every brand of Combine on the market for the past 14 years, I have to say Gleaner has the least loss and best sample.
@@bigtractorpower thanks yes I heard that its great to have that info. Thanks for filming these I really enjoy watching!
Great clip Jason. Like those Gleaners!!
They are great harvesting machines.
gleaner is one of the best !
I agree. They do a great job harvesting.
Gleaner are a fantastic combine. The headers are a huge detriment to combine. Headers from outside manufactures actually improve the gleaner performance.
We had an F2 gleaner and an L2 gleaner growing up on our farm
Very nice. Two great Gleaners.
We run an R72 and an R65. Corn and soybeans and a little wheat. East central IL
Very cool. The R72 is a monster and a cool combine.
The Galvanized Gladiators!!!! My dad started with a K to.
Very nice on the K. I like Gleaner combines
We've had Gleaner EIII, K2, F2, M3, R50, and R52. Looking at an R55 and R65 now.
Nice to see the Gleaners from the shorts 👍👍👍 don't think the rabbit at 10:00 was so keen 😀
Shorts are a great way to preview what’s on the way to the channel. I see allot of rabbits in wheat and a surprising amount of turtles.
Cut my teeth on my dad's N6. I run an S78 and R72. Most efficient wheat combine on the market!
Very cool. The N series is big on my wish list to find and film.
1981 M2. We raise wheat and soybeans
Very nice combine.
Went I was farming used F3 with 13 ft grain head
Very nice combine. I hope to film an AC or Deutz-Allis F3 some day.
My Uncle had a pull behind A/C combine that was pull by 60 John Deere.Does that tell you how long it been!
The AC all crop combines were good harvesters. Very popular to harvest clover. I have a video of one harvesting corn in this video ua-cam.com/video/V87dZBOZTOQ/v-deo.htmlsi=b8ij4HOQ_eOOrQXp
Use to run a N7 AC engine
Monster combine. I hope to get to feature an N7 someday.
Do you have a drone
I do not. Have friends film the drone views for me.
@@bigtractorpower Thanks for the information I really appreciate it
Hey what’s your favorite combine brand
I like them all. I have filmed Combines harvesting for 14 years and I do find the Gleaner produces the best sample and has the least loss.
Currently have to barrow a neighbors combine after dad blew up our M2 doing high moisture corn.
Run a K soybean special here in central Michigan
Very cool. True classic.
See the little rabbit run out of the way?
Rabbits all over in wheat fields. I see a bunch each year.
I have always preferred the Gleaners. The last one we bought had the Agco engine instead of the Cummins. In was down on power and always derating. We are thinking we will have to try a new color after 40 years. ☹️
I have not heard any complaints on the AGCO engine before. What has been the hardest crop on it?
👏👏👍👍
Wonder why they not doing straw bales also. I heard it was almost as money as the wheat prices.
We make more money off the straw than the grain. We bale 65-70,000 small squares and 500-700 big round bales a year.
@@gregjames5070 wow thanks for shareing
Gleaned are the best combine out there jd over price and the new ones break down to much.
sadly they're not baler friendly, especially Red Spring Wheat straw
Rotor combines never are
These machines are only good for small grain, that's my understanding.
