Even though i retired a while ago,after 47 seasons cutting up to 2000 acres a year in the UK (Britain) i still miss it and would love to harvest in Australia.

I noticed the fire 🔥 fighting tanks and pumps on the chase trailers. Also the clear sky.😊. Wonderful Back here in Australia 🇦🇺 the days can have storms building right when we are trying to get the crop off. Fire 🔥 is always an issue.

How far are you trucking grain ? Does crop go directly to market or is it stored at another site ?
@BenCrosthwaite111 ай бұрын
Most of the grain is carted to Geraldton 80 to 100ks away and delivered to CBH a co-op run by farmers to store most types of grain.

Interesting to see the figure of 200t per hour which I assume is the total from four harvesters. I hear the highest capacity harvesters will do over 90 tonnes per hour in heavy wheat crops in the UK so it illustrates how different the yields per hectare are between intensive (UK) and more extensive systems (Aus). I guess moisture in the soil makes a big difference too. Great video and always informative seeing how farming is done different around the world. Long time retired farmer but I still do my bit trying to keep people informed about why farming is so important. Farming under political attack from every quarter here in Europe.
@BenCrosthwaite111 ай бұрын
200t per hr from the four headers. I don’t think we could match your yields our soils aren’t as fertile as yours and our rainfall would be less. The interesting thing about our country, most of it was only cleared about fifty years ago.
