You dont go down to the new equipment dealer and add up the cost of equipment! 🤦‍♂️ Like shit! Of course they think its out of reach when you do thaaat! 🙄 We have all older equipment except one later model combine. Its the only thing with a payment. Bought our big ag chem sprayer for 8k. Our TR 98 combine for 14k. A 4 wheel drive tractor for 20k. All your implements you can get pretty cheap on farm auctions. And you dont even need that big stuff when you start out so that makes it cheaper yet! Just learn to fix stuff! Lol

    The question I would have is, how much do they pay the guy keeping the planter full or what work is he sacrificing to chase the planter around? If he would just be waiting in the truck anyway then good idea, but if this means you have to stop a different job or hire someone else then the cost adds up quick. The contraption is one time cost which might cost plenty but you add another monthly/yearly wage plus benefits yikes!

    As a guy who grew up on a farm in the 80s and 90s its hard for me to understand the dollars and time spent on this type of thing. Same goes for 400hp tractors running around with 1000+ bushel grain carts. We would drive grain trucks in the field for high yield crops, and just plan our combine rounds for dumping full, never turning off the harvester. Efficiency comes at a hefty cost and I wonder if it's paying off. During seeding and harvest time is crucial. Its just so much money. But perhaps we're looking at leases rather than ownership. Farmers are some kind of inventors though. There will always be someone willing to try new things. Margins are thin.

      I drive grain cart for the JD out fit I work for and my unit I run is a 9510RT with a 2000 bushel twin track grain cart. We have six JD combines and one 1000 bushel grain cart the little cart takes care of two combines I keep the other four going. Very seldom do our combines stop its all about timing. I grew up in the 90s my grandfather ran a 7721 pull type JD behind a 4650 2wd JD and also had a co-op combine and just a couple of three ton grain trucks. I'm 28 now and I just can't believe how big farming has got we get retired nabours to drive combines for us and they get blown away when I take all four combines and sometimes my lead once more before I go dump and I'm able to fill a B-train and part of a tridem. Hard to believe only about 20 years ago a 7721 pull type was still a decent sized combine a legend at that now it's tiny in today's world of farming but in my opinion probably the best combine ever built.

    I will openly admit to not being a farmer, but unless you're running from a rain storm, does stopping to fill the tanks really take away from your day to justify this cost? As I've mentioned, I've never farmed list this, but seems like the operator would enjoy a few minutes to hit the bushes, grab a drink and stretch the legs for a few minutes.

      If there were not millions of acres of farmland, the factories wouldn't make such devices, and everyone would still be using horses to sow the seed.
      How much does corn for seed cost? Plus, what is the yearly operating expenses of a farm that size? You know, things like property taxes, electric bill, equipment loan payments, the whole shabang.
      I just did the math. Based on the last USDA crop yield predictions, 5,000 acres has a max potential of netting $4.15 million, assuming $5/BU.

    The saddle tanks on the tracked tractor would have less psi on the ground then the gators running across the field. The thing is the tanks on the tractor really need to be centered on the tractor and not hanging off the front. Also for the price of this outfit you could make a center track for the front of the tractor than could be lowered to the ground after you turn around to lower compaction.

    Leaking so bad that he has to run the wipers to see. I hope the Gator gets washed down every load or it's going to be a rust bucket.

    Time is money, a couple 3 or 4 fill ups in a day and you have spent well over an hour. Multiply that out over the amount of planting days. Not to mention it seems like we lose a couple days every year from the previous year.

      allen schmitz last year my cousin has a farm. One field is split and the other is the farmers next door. Same seed planted 2 weeks different. The other farmers corn was planted 2 weeks earlier. There was some cold nights and days. He waited to plant. and by fourth of July his corn was at his eyes he's 6'5 the other half of the field was just under knee height. It's amazing what cold weather does to the strenght of the seed. I have pictures and it looks unbelievable.

    when i first saw Yeild 360 introduce this in there winter conference I thought it was an early April fools joke. Interesting to see it in action, but still think its one of the dumbest ideas I've seen in modern time. You still have to stop to fill for seed. Most farmers are using 2" lines and pump to fill 28% on the planter if you want to speed it up upgrade to 3" that would be way cheaper than buying a separate 6x6 gator and lining Gregg Sauders pockets with more money.
