Recently watched a vid where they had an automated tractor work a field. Want to say it was a farm with zoe vid where they left the tractor working the field while they worked on harvesting other fields. AI for a lot of farming is coming but they are not advanced enough yet for AI to unplug a combine.
When I was in college in 2007 to 2008 that was one of ny classes GPS mapping fields soil sciences etc fer the GPS tractors... it was pretty interesting honestly especially seeing things I learned over a decade ago becoming the typical normal...
Considering there are less farmers every year, a i is kind of needed. The combines and tractors already know where they are in the field, they just need to communicate a bit more to know when and where to unload. Plus if the trucks had globes on them then the cart would be able to fill the trailers. It would be easy to make the carts autonomous.
A couple of years ago, I saw, unoccupied, tractors, towing, and planting, that’s tillage, and planting with a tractor that had no cab on it, I believe it was the case I H. It makes more sense to do that with a tractor with a cab so a human can use it when they need to.
Rocking my new HOH swag today
There are autonomous grain carts already.
It was great for me to learn what adj are needed to change from beans to corn. Thanks for that.
I'm not sure if I could be in the combine everyday for months.
I can see playing games with AI seems reasonable to do. Happy Trails to You and Your Family.
Love It!!
We have Definitely come a Long Ways since my 1st Ride!! Cab no AIR but a Cab Cooler on some of my 2nd or 3rd. Water stored in like a Cooler but Not, A round Wheel with Filter Material Wrapping it. And a Cam Arm that would advance the rotation about a quarter of an inch every 10-15 seconds? And a Fan Blowing AIR. DOES GOOD AFTER WET FROM SWEATING 🤠
When we would move always Replace Tires on Tote Trailers, and Patching Tube Tires🤠 one morning put on 26 Patches I think?
I think its coming and yes its cool how it works etc but to me a big part of being a farmer is being hands on. Having machines that dont require operators to me defies the idea of farming.
I agree it's coming. But at what cost?
The US was mostly rural up through WW2, families had large families and small towns thrived, then after the war many GI’s who had travelled the world (Paris, London, Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York to name a few cities) decided that they didn’t want to go back to their small towns. Coupled with that was the mechanization in factories to build tanks, planes etc for the war effort, they switched in part to building Tractors etc. So over the last 80 years families have become smaller, more and more small towns are dying or have died.
Small farms that had more diversity (crops and livestock) became unmanageable with fewer people available to do the work as well as folks wanting a bit of free time (remember we were just at the radio era with TV on the way - also remember that most rural areas phone systems were on the party line), so you started to get larger farms, but the same conditions existed, smaller families with many kids wanting college and a job in the city, so machines had to become bigger so that fewer people could get more done
Add to this is the fact that most kids don’t want to work as hard as you and your family do, historically we have had immigrants come to help fill these jobs, picking crops that machinery can’t or in packing plants etc. With the current desire to stop immigration we will need bigger and bigger machinery (NEXAT) and AI to do the job
Welcome to your new world
No because what with an ai do when the combine plugs or when there is a rock on the header
Good point. But would AI or an autonomous combine plug up or would it prevent it?
AI will probably take over in the future. I think it’s a great asset! Got my HaydenOnHarvest shirt today. Looks Cool
Just wanted to know if speeding up your feed accelerator helped with feeding in soybeans? I always run it on fast in soybeans.
Yes
Hayden follow you everyday. Love your posts. How many hours do you have on your combine? How many do you put on a year? How often will you trade them off? My math has you at about 1200 hours this year on the machine. Also, what is the ballpark figure of how a harvester get paid? So much an acre? A bushel?
Great stream as ever, as sad as AI is don't let it depress you too much, look on the bright side when you're cutting on your own without Mum at least you always win the light game. 👍
The only way to keep A.I. out of farming is to only run older equipment.
I agree. But farms over the years have lowered in quantity but have gained in size. Do people really have a choice to go back in time to get a smaller tractor and expect it to do more work?
AI is all good till it runs a T post thru the combine opening up a field. IMO the more technology the more things to brake. I wonder how long it is till someone comes out with a combine like the big bud tractors. Simple and the farmer can work on it.
To continue with what I first commented
In the mid 70’s I learned to be a machinist, you needed to learn how to setup the machine, read blueprints and then make the parts, since then with CNC machinists mostly are machine operators, in the 70’s cars etc were mostly built by hand, now it’s robots alongside people and I’d guess soon it will be robots being serviced by people
Musk wants driverless cars and is the richest man on the planet (even though he was an illegal alien to begin with), he is more interested in building robots than building Teslas, so my guess is that Teslas will soon be built by his robots - no overtime, no strikes, no vacation and no pension
We’ve all bought into the tech with cell phones, computers, iPads etc - it’s coming and there is no stopping
Lastly, ask yourself how many of you would do what Hayden and family do? Living on the road, working 10+ hour days, 7 days a week, then there’s the fact that they get hired by farmers who already have 4+ combines of their own - what you get is corporate farms
As I said earlier, farmers had small farms with pigs, chickens and cattle, today we already have corporate pig farms, chickens and beef and we send the bodies to China to process and then they send it to us - which if you think about it is insane
And we are talking of getting rid of the FDA which protects us from contaminated meat etc 😂
Welcome to the new world
I think it is good where technology has us now, but to take where you no longer need human is sad. I see that JD now has a tractor/combine marriage where they automatically calculate speed of the grain cart to that of the combine to unload. I know it gets boring doing 1 mile/ 2 mile corn rows all day long. But there is something to be said for having a human in the cab and though it is now minimal, some physical activity for the farmer. Our society is already too sedentary. Thx for sharing.
I’ve been watching combine and green cards or the combine takes over the operation of the green cart while it is dumping the combine will make the green cart move ahead of the boat or backhoe little bit Internet out a little bit until the dump is over with. Then it releases the green cart which goes on its way until the next dump.
I think it would be a big mistake if that would ever happen and that’s my opinion
I think it's stupid, but you are right it's coming 😮
At some point far enough in the future, the “farmer” will be eating breakfast and will pick up his phone and say, “Hey Siri! Combine the north 40” and it will just happen.
What is the biggest challenge in operating this combine harvester?
I guess in the future you'll need to fire up your copy of Farming Simulator IRL to operate the equipment because it's far too dangerous to have a human in proximity of it, they may inhale a little dust or have a cockle burr draw a little blood LOL God only know what the future holds 🙂
😂😂😂
I am a software engineer and I am pretty sure that it's not that far at max 10 years.
You have to look at AI as it being at the level as a 4 year old, but but can calculate and make logic decisions faster than any human. It will take a long time before it can replace humans in a non-static environment. It will change a lot of things in the industry, but framing might not be such an easy thing.
SKYNET is coming!! 😲😲😲
Who?
@ SkyNet. When the computers become aware and take over the earth in the Terminator movies. 🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣
@MillerWB87 ohhhhhh
If everything goes completely computerized what will all the man power do?? No Jobs 😢
There will come a time that AI will lesson profits due to the cost. Remember the more you support technology the more you support China.
AI is probably here to stay, but I think the major players have almost priced themselves out of business, sales at John Deere have slowed and massive furloughs are the result.
I’m a farmer myself and I dislike AI but I’m looking to get on a custom harvest crew maybe in about 2 1/2 years after high school
You're talking about AI ... ChatGTP is a showcase for OpenAI ChatGTP Enterprise chatbots, assisted intelligence (AI) goes back to Ars Magna by Candelo published in 1545, basics of modern AI goes back to Banach space publish in 1932 leading to computer vision with Cyclograph developed by Kirsch and team in 1957. The only thing new is suddenly used by investors making noise as used years ago by automatic machines on a large scale. SpaceX launches Starship, a huge thing in a fully automated process. Flight 5 is a perfect success, flight 6 a month later using modern agile lean process, plan-do-check-adjust iterations at Boca Chica of all places, no pollution, protecting wildlife with a small team doing fantastic work. You use modern combines, know it works, you service it and master its advanced features, displays, possibilities going down to manually configure the machine. The next step is people like you to get the thing working with feet on the ground, similar to all the welders, workers, personal at Boca Chica as automation has limits needing humans leading to a completely new world close to Star Trek with farmers, machines and knowledge ...
The Larson's and the Millennial Farmer already have and use auto-turn combines. JD did demos last summer with autonomous tillage. I think God designed humans to do useful work. Perhaps the driver behind many of societies negative trends (mental illness, suicide, violence) is that we aren't engaged in as much useful work as we need to be balanced
Your not gonna stop technology...if you decide to not go with it you'll miss the boat !!...and this is coming from someone who's almost 60
Personally, I'm not a big fan of such advanced technology as AI. Quite often, things can occur that artificial intelligence cannot begin to comprehend. In my opinion, we're already WAY YONDER too dependent on computers. It would be very easy for any one who is good at hacking computers to bring most everything to a standstill, including our military. The young people of today do not even know simple multiplication tables, or even how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, spell and write in cursive. Yes.....I'm quite old and am old achool, 69 years of age.
LAZY. I personally don’t like it. We are losing our independence . that is what makes farming great is all the equipment .we relying on something else is like technology is like relying on another human. we are getting lazy as a society it probably will be bad in the long run
It's a sad day when people stop doing things...
AI will b terrible
41 second fan! lol! ❤

AI and autonomous tractors will destroy the all the pleasure of farming and the world will be a human cabbage patch.
The real question is do modern day farms care more about the “pleasure” of farming or more about their pocketbooks?
I@@HaydenOnHarvest I hate the thought of this, but I think the number of farmers will continue to decline and eventually big companies will take over farming and most if it will be done autonomously. Think about it. We have people sitting in a room in Denver, flying a drone somewhere in the the war zones across the big pond, and they can pick out a 2' x 2' window in a building miles and miles away, and put missile right through that window. All with just a computer, a monitor, and a joystick. The technology is already there. It's just a matter of time. You may still be a custom harvester Hayden, but you, yourself may never leave your home in Texas. There already systems that can control the grain cart tractor from the combine. Cody could be out of a job. All you would need are trucks to move the combines and someone to service them and fuel them. I hate the thought of all that, but I think it is where we are headed somewhere down the road.😢
One of the main “trills” of custom harvest is seeing the world and meeting new people along the way. You may be right one day, but for me, I couldn’t see myself doing that.
@@HaydenOnHarvest I hope I'm wrong and that never, ever happens. One year in the near future when I retire, I would love to spend a summer on custom harvesting crew. That was something I always wanted to do. We had a local harvester that headed for Texas in May and worked their way back up to ND. And they would have taken me along cuz I was a farm kid and new how to run everything. But my dad would never let me go cuz we had more than enough to do on our own farm. We had cattle and grain, so there was hay to be put up all summer, and he even hired that guy when they got back on a lot of years if we had a big crop and couldn't get done with our own combine. I hope the work will always be there for you guys in the future.
I am not a fan of AI anything
