In this video I will see how we harvest green beans on our farm with a one row picker and how we get them washed and packed for Farmers’ Markets. It sure beats hand picking them!

Oh my gosh. One of my favorite dishes is fresh green beans, ham, and potatoes. I am not bragging, but I make great ones. Like my Momma taught me, never overcook the beans. I like a little snap in them. When will they be ready Jason?

Oh man, I just drooled, sounds good even for breakfast! We plant beans first of May and begin harvest in late June or early July normally.

Nice to see that machine work. Can I borrow it this summer? Sure beats bending over those rows and picking 5 gallon buckets at a time lol.

Hahaha! We used to pick about an acre by hand with a handfull of employees now we grow about 8-10 acres. That picker cost $33,000 13 years ago, now the same machine is over $58,000!!

I am the son of a broad bean farmer and we are looking for a better way of harvesting than hand picking. Do you know if this machine works on broad beans, if not do you think that a larger plant can be a problem for the machine, and do you think bigger beans will stil work on the machine. Love from the Netherlands.

How long does it takes from planting to harvesting ?, great video and inspiring for a new farmer like me.

Whats the minimum horsepower tractor you can use with one of these?

@wishwellfarms 2 ай бұрын

I don’t know for sure, but my 3020 has 71 horse and that is more than enough, I would venture to say that even half that would work. The only way to know for sure is to call a dealer of Oxbo.

Para que es el gato hidráulico ??

@wishwellfarms 3 ай бұрын

Solo hay una función hidráulica de la cosechadora y es subir y bajar el cabezal recolector. Demasiado alto y perderá los frijoles y demasiado bajo y recogerá tierra y piedras.

What herbicide do you use in the bean field?

@wishwellfarms 7 күн бұрын

Command 3ME and generic dual pre emergent and If weeds get out of hand, we put on some reflex or raptor, but normally not needed.

Can you use this on soybeans to sell as edamame??

@wishwellfarms 6 ай бұрын

I used it on edamame one year but it picked up quite a bit of dirt with the bean pods. It does however pick soybeans pretty good whenever some volunteer plants have grown alongside the greenbeans.
