I think you should get a case ih 9240 combine with 16 row corn head, Four semi's, a J.D. 9620R 4wd to pull your grain cart with, another 9620R in case the first one breaks down and you should use Jamie's hair dryer to dry down your corn before you put it in the bin.

Ryan have you ever thought of getting a single axle or tandem axle truck to cut down on your turn around time while hauling the crop back to the bin. It would also cut down on the hours on the tractors. You can get a used single axle truck for dang near the cost of one set of radial tractor tires. Just wondering.

+BillTheTractorMan That's the same situation here. We have one grain cart and 2 little trucks with a semi. This keeps up with a JD s670 and 9500 at the same time. So Ryan, why not a grain truck?

@steveholton4130 7 жыл бұрын

Observation - question from a non framer point of view. I don't get why the yield monitor. You are going to continue harvesting till the field is bare regardless of the yield or the reason for it. It would only make sense if the monitor printed out a map showing where the harvest was fat and where it was lean. Then you could try to spot remedy it with nutrients before the next planting and that assumes the fault was not with this year's seed. Why load from the harvester to cart A then to cart B? Why not direct from harvester to cart B if B is the road cart? sdh in CT

@HowFarmsWork 7 жыл бұрын

+steve holton this year's information is applied to next years nutrient plan. It helps you see any problem areas so you can go out, soil sample, and see what's wrong. The reason we aren't unloading directly into the wagon is because we can keep moving the combine if we have storage in the field. We learned this the hard way in the past.

Hey, got a question for anyone who can answer i t. What is the purpose of raking, winrowing, and bailing the corn stalks/trash after the harvest?? Feed? Ethanol production?? Just something I observed over the weekend while out scouting for hunting (geese). I just figured most farmers chisel plowed this trash into the ground after the corn harvest.

@HowFarmsWork 7 жыл бұрын

It can be made for ethanol, but 99% of the time the farmers are raking the fodder up for bedding for cattle.

Breakdowns are just a pain! So, how far away is your ag dealer for getting repair parts? My Uncle's 3000 acre farm is 5 miles away from the John Deere dealership so tractor breakage is usually not a game changer. The dealership carries a wide variety of JD parts so fixes for the combine and tractors. They also carry parts for KMC and Amada peanut farming equipment.

Yeah who would want a semi or a tri-axle dump truck that you could use for various jobs year round when you could be making payments on a second grain cart. Sorry man to each his own, not sure who encouraged and supported that decision but seems way off to me.

@HowFarmsWork 7 жыл бұрын

Probably due to the large price difference? Sorry man, I'm not about to dump all my worth into a truck right now.

@HowFarmsWork 7 жыл бұрын

+McGillicutty88 not sure which jobs to which you're referring? If we got a grain truck it would be sitting 10/12 months of the year. We could haul for people, but none of us are in the business to be truckers. Plus, our accounts are separate so it makes more sense for me to invest in a grain cart so we can get my crops out of the field faster. I could invest in a truck but it would take way longer for me to pay back on it.

@McGillicutty88 7 жыл бұрын

How Farms Work If you had a truck with an end dump trailer or a tri axle dump truck not a hopper bottom trailer which serves one purpose like your grain cart you could eliminate that rock wagon deal you bought and gravity wagons. You would save time and tractor tire wear hauling to the elevator and to your bins. You already have one grain cart two is a complete waste they serve on purpose one time a year. You could move dirt, haul slag for driveways even haul for other people occasionally to help pay it off, even if you had a tri axle dump truck you could buy a old pintle hitch trailer and move hay with it, possibilities are endless. Obviouly I'm not talking brand new $160,00 Kenworths but quilty used trucks. Speaking of not wanting to be a trucker what do you do? You rent a few acres and make youtube vids and that pays the bills?

I'm kind of surprised that you're putting 20% corn into a 20,000 bu. bin Ryan. Do you really think you have enough air flow to dry that down without heat? I'd be concerned about spoilage especially in the center of the bin once it starts to sweat a bit. Around here we wouldn't go higher than 20% in a 5000 bu. bin and even then it might take some heat to get it dried down enough.

@HowFarmsWork 7 жыл бұрын

+ianBeer123 Not at all. Today the moisture of the bin sits at 14%.
