I don’t know why but I always enjoy to see Chickens running around around a farm yard. My dad always had 20 to 30. I never even thought about them back then.
The material you dug out of the x9 is probably due to the last owner picking corn when it was snowing. I had a field that I had about five acres left and it started to snow. I kept going finished the field watched the grain loss go through the roof. Took the machine to the heated shop for the night so it didn’t freeze and spend the next morning pulling the chaffer and sieves to clean it. Learned real quick it wasn’t worth the extra work to just finish the field when we had more corn to pick anyway.
Andy, what are you going to do with the vertical till at you? Trade that back in. Are you looking at getting like a high-speed disk? Are you gonna replace one ear, guys? Full dry tractors with a different one. You should do a live stream After harvest. Lift u allian lenien Graham and see if Katie would do a live stream. That way is anybody asking questions? You guys will be able to answer them. Would you ever grow wheat as a cover crop? Do hold off weeds to build up some organic matter. To health, a better crop going into the following year. Are you guys possibly looking at putting up another green bin? So that's why you're you're turning the vertical till and sold, you're the truck. Are you gonna trade your denalian and get a new one?
Thanks for the good wishes. We plan to run the vertical till as normal. It is similar to a high speed disk in many ways. I'd be interest in doing some cover crops but I can't get everyone convinced to try them.
Can't resist making a minor correction, a bushel of beans takes up the exact same amount of room as a bushel of corn, or wheat, or barley, or oats. A bushel is a measure of volume, like a cup or gallon. Various crops weigh different amounts per bushel, but it's always the same volume
Your statement is technically true, but in agriculture we think about bushels as weight and not volume because that is how grain is bought and sold. With a 60# per bushel weight of soybeans and their round shape, it is pretty common to be able to fit more bushels of corn in a space than bushels of soybeans. This same principle applies to his discussions earlier in the video about harvest moistures as you get to sell more water with 13% soybeans than 8% soybeans, even though their volumes would be very similar
Whenever a farmer is referring to a "bushel" of any crop, they aren't talking about the volumetric measurement. They are talking weight. You are definitely correct, but it is no different than calling perforated drainage pipe by its old name "tile." We can always fit more bushels of corn in any given space than soybeans, unless the corn is very wet.
@@aTrippyFarmer I hate to disagree, but I must. I"m an old farmer, and when you refer to bushels, you are referring to a volume. A bushel is a legal trade volume equalling roughly 1.25 cubic feet. This is why things such as grain bins are measured in bushels. Now, various grains have differnt assigned legal weights per bushel, corn being 56 wheat and soybeans being 60, barley being 48, etc. Now, if you are harvesting heavy corn, say 65# per bushel, you'll seem to get more bushels in the same space, but only because each bushel is weighing more, not because there are more actual bushelsin the same space. Where the confussion arises is when you talk to your local elevator, who quotes you a price per bushel, but actually pays you by weight, not by a true bushel. But meh, you know what I'm talking about, and I know what you're talking about. The problem arises because we as humans are lazy, and don't want to actually measure the voume of our crops anymore, instead we sell by weight and call it volume lol.
@@kevinhicks1108 you are most certainly right. We are just respectfully arguing over semantics. Volumetric measurements are much more cumbersome than weighted ones!
Dang half inch here mill creek lake was 10% before the rain, Saturday at 100 was 16, tried at 230 cut semi quit just was 13, elevator closed at 4, atsrted loading thung sunday after lunch arohnd 130 was over 13, kept going next day finished last 30 acres first load was 14 at noon, last load at 4 was 11.7
Andy, they make custom tool boxes for combines, really well made. Chet Larson bought several for tools, parts for combines and big tractors. All painted green or red, whatever your favorite brand is. I forget the name of the company. Keep the videos coming. Nice to see your wife the kids riding with you ! God Bless.
U can just get one or two boxes but get brackets for combines, tractors or planters and move it around through the seasons. Cuts thee cost back a bit instead of getting a box for each peace of kit.
That's a worked stone tool Indian artifact. Note the coarser surface finish and lighter color where it's been pecked with a pecking stone to shape. If you see anything with an internal notch it's not factory. What they call L shaped jumps out and there will be a lot more tools nearby.
They lived within 100 yards of water typically on high ground. Woodlands period 200 to 4,000 years ago there that whole time. Most tools have pecked concavities that your fingers fit super. And watch for flaked stuff like various blades. Rare but the hand tools, grinders, and end scrapers are all over the place. Nobody knows it either.
You are soooooo funny, " 14%, 14%, 14%, I don't know if the collaborator is working right. I probably should read the manual." LOVE it, LOVE it, LOVE it.
They are definitely worth the consideration. For the yearly price and labor, it is almost as easy to harvest a little slower and take them to commercial storage unless you feel like you absolutely have to have every single dollar and finish harvest as quickly as possible.
@@aTrippyFarmer I think your mini me is already hooked on farming he is gonna be wanting g to drive a tractor as soon as he is big enough. I was driving the bobcat at 6. Cultivating in tbe field by 9. Your little guy will probably ride with you even longer when he gets a bit older
How long did it take to collect those rocks? I used to mange a farm in the uk ( south east wales bordering England ) and when we ploughed to put maize or corn, we would get about 400t of stone from a 25 acre field every year! It was crazy, we would have stone rakes so row up the stone then use an elevator too lift them into trailers. I’ve never seen anything like it before or since. Best of luck with your harvest I will b following as usual. We just did our 4th and last cut of silage for the year, finally having some good weather this week.
We have collected them slowly. We don't have thick enough rock pressure to run a stone picker. We just go around occasionally and pick up loads of them that have surfaced. Tillage doesn't help.
That comment at 26:45 made me laugh as I have the same issue but with my niece and nephew who love to ride and my seat won’t move back right now though hopefully that will be fixed soon. 😅
Just a question why not throw the beans in the bins and keep cutting. Then when have rain delays haul into storage. Possibly be done sooner and be able to more fall work done.
Next time you have somebody come down from up north, such as an agronomist or whoever, have them take the rock to the University of illinois. They might enjoy looking at it, and will probably be able to tell you what it is.
@ 9:30 will those combine tracks fir the X-9 ?? Thanks for another great video 😁👍👍 Can the new truck be "deleted" ? (the emissions removed) I've heard of people deleting pick-ups but I don't know about big engines
We aren't upset about it. It's not like we clean the inside of the combine out when we put it away for the winter. We run it until it stops blowing debris/dust and wash the outside.
If corn silage, potatoes, sugar beet etc can be dumped into a truck while the harvester keeps going, there is no reason why soybeans or wheat cant be dumped into a semi while the combine continues to harvest the beans or wheat. By eliminating the tractor and cart it means less augering of the grain which means less fines in the grain, less diesel used, less wear on machinery, less manpower required, less soil compaction of the soil since a tractor and cart dont have to drive back and forth between the combine and truck. This will mean higher profits.
I know that you are really big on this idea, but there is a reason that it isn't done. You could drive for hours around here and the number of trucks that are used to "chase" combines is close to zero. They are heavier and create more compaction when loaded than a grain cart.
@@aTrippyFarmer The 2000 bu Brent Avalanche and the 3000 bu Elmers grain carts weigh 60 and 90 tons respectively which loaded, weigh twice and three times more than a loaded semi. Combines are increasing in size and grain carts will also increase in size.

This studied is a bit antiquated, and am 80,000lb legal load over 18 wheels would be a little over 4000 lbs per tire. Regardless, one could speculate that the loaded PSI is closer to 60-70PSI.
