It's just amazing that a combine has the power and capacity to handle the corn from 18 rows especially @ 30% moisture. Plus powering the chopping corn head and unloading on the go.

Mike, you justly deserve 100,000 subscribers, can hardly wait for it to happen, as always great photography, filming and the use of the drone and the information you give us, thanks Mike✌️

Mike. Excellent video Thank You

Always like to see what's goin on down home,born and raised in the thumb and spent many,many hours driving truck for different farmers hauling corn,beans and beets when I was younger. Great videos !

Another great video Mike you are right high moisture corn does smell really good when it's fermented into silage as well.i never get tired of watching your videos mike.keep up the good work Mike you are doing an excellent job.

I always appreciate your videos Mike. Been watching for a long time. 🤙💪

Again a great video! Always love the details.also I love the smell of chopped corn.thanks again.

Glad to see the Thumb of Michigan content ! That combine looks like it has its max capacity with high moisture and that big corn head.

All the corn farmers say the smell of drying corn is amazing. Which always makes me want to make old fashioned popcorn balls from scratch, esp this time of year. Closest thing I have to the smell of drying corn.

You always hit it out of the park with your videos Mike!! Well done!!

It's really nice to see how the corn gets grinded👍😉 Great video, keep up the great work😁👍

Another good one, Farmhand Mike. I learned to drive on Dad's Ford 9-n and 900 tractors. I am a 65-year-old man in Nebraska. Careers and the "economic imperative" took me away from farming/ranching in 1985 or so. Now, 41 years later, here I am, operating a Case/IH 340 Red, pulling a 1300 bushel grain-cart -- for my first tractor driving in 35 years. Also, agree with Francisco Sandiego -- Let's Go Brandon!

Awesome video Mike! Thank you

Hi Mike love this video i worked on this farm in the 80 for 10 years back then was about 5000 ackers .

My experience in the grain elevator business remembers that that high moisture corn does not like to flow out of those gravity wagons, but they seem to not have any issues. Another great video Mike, that's my first 18 row corn head (I didn't know they made them that big). Wow.

I have seen some comments on here about Michigan weight laws so I figured I’d explain. Michigan is a axle weight state that means how much you can haul is based off how many axles you have and how you arrange them. So you are allowed 18,000 pounds on your front axle (if you have a 385 tire) 16,000 on each one of your drivers and 13,000 on every one of your axles. Unless you have a 9 foot spread then you are allowed 18,000 on that axle. In the video the truck the grain cart was loading into is called a 2 28. The first trailer AKA the lead has a 9 foot spread on the first axle meaning 18,00 pounds then 2 axles in a row 13,000 each or 26,000 total. Meaning you can get 44,000 on the lead. The second trailer or the pup has 2 axles in a row (26,000 pounds) and 9 foot spread (18,000) and another to axles in a row (26,000) plus the 50,000 you can get on the truck. It all adds up to 164,000. The trailer dumping at the bunk is a 5 axle this means 5 axles in a row that can haul 13,000 each with no 9 foot spreads. So it can gross 65,000 plus the 50,000 you can get on the truck for a total of 115,000 gross weight.

I believe that is the widest corn head I have seen so far. Very cool. There's some outstanding deer hunting in the thumb area to. :-)

Another great video Mike .

Another excellent video mike!

Great vídeo Mike.

What an enormous field.

I only live about 45 minutes from there, the dairy i work on has our corn hauled in so it’s interesting to see how other dairies around here do it.

My Uncle and cousins used a 3 row snapper corn head on a pull chopper for high moisture corn. Not sure what my cousin uses today. Great seeing you in Michigan again!

awsome video mike!

Am in love with farming.This is just great

Hi moisture corn is the best smell that there can be on a farm. Love that smell

Awesome video.

great video Mike 👍

Great video 😃

Wow, awesome Dude, mechanised agriculture...!

Great video

Michigan, my home state,

"Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸

Great. Well done.

I just love harvest time in the thumb it’s stressful but it’s a great time

omg you were over at my cousin's, i was told they have 40 plus locations in 5 different states, also do field farm tilling ,cement plant and sell landscape pavers.

Great awesome video mike, I like the new intro but miss the old one too , I guess you have to get use to it , nice equipment doing high moisture, your almost there at 100000 subscribers

i love your combine sir,,,😍😍👍👍😎😎

When we use to do that we would keep that grinder going 24 hours a day until we filled the bunkers with that type of silage.

Mike buen vídeo amigo que dios te bendiga

Those Michigan boys sure like putting a bunch of axels under trailers!

Nice vídeo 🤠🇲🇽

Nice mike

A Mike Less video on my Birthday o-yes...

great vid🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🌽🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Yum! Grits!

Cool 👍🤝

Drago corn head 😏🔝

Wonder what HMC-silage smells like… I only know the smell of grassilage.😖 Thanks a lot for the video! 😊👍🏻

@Farmhandmike...what was/is the biggest operation in acres that you have filmed?

SUPER!

Hi. Question.. Do the forward axles of the 5axle trailers steer.? LOVE THE VIDS.🥰🥰... KEEP'EM COMING.🤞🥰... RICH(UK).🥰🥰🥰.!.!.!

how fast is he running wit that 18 row corn 🌽 head it looks like he's running just under 4mph wit that class 8 S780 combine I wonder what his rpm range is

My smell is off too since the virus i guess we will get it back some day.

Do they have the concaves set to capture any of the cob?

Mike, I know farmers are always trying to the get the cleanest sample in the combine, but for silage is it better or worse to have a “dirtier” sample?

How do they open up fields and or lands with that wide of a corn head? Pretty sure that they cannot make a complete length of the field.

Silagem de grão úmido. Muito bom para os animais.

My first time seeing high moisture corn,what's the advantage over silage.

Hopefully you find some sugar beet equipment. Most have not seen; I’m sure

I'm thinkin Corn Bread made in a black iron pan !!!!

Good video Mike, I wonder how long those corn rows are

Are the farmers in your area planning to plant as much this time on caught of high fertilizer prices

You should really checkout Atwater farms sugar beet operation while your in the thumb

Come on almost 100k

A lots of farmers are going in hop town ship

When did Drago launch an 18 row 30 inch corn head? Personally, I find that to be a bit big for that combine. I would run that on a class 10.

Ruth, that's where I live!

I like Mike less videos on KZfaq, from the imperial co California.

I just got over having Covid a few days ago

Ruth is a village I live near deckerville

Surprised at how high of moisture that corn is by how brown it looks. Where I'm at (midsouth) it would be around 17% maybe a little less or more depending on variety. But I can see that corn piling tall on that grain cart like high moisture corn does. Bet that guy wishes he had one of those Claas combines or a X1100 with that big of a head

✌️✌️✌️🇧🇷

FJB and his handlers and let's go Brandon.

Get that head on a Lexion 8800 and eat some corn

Quante file sono

Love the video but I feel like the music takes away from it. Much better while hearing the machines in action.

Puuuuro bla bla bla.!!! Como aburreeee.!!!
