Thanks for watching!

Love these kinds of comments! Thanks!

Thanks a bunch! Rice fields are flooded while the rice is growing but they pump them out to harvest. And yes, if you look at some of my other rice videos you'll see it can get very muddy sometimes. Guess it depends on how much rain there is during harvest also. Sometimes its dry though. Sorry for the late reply !

Glad you enjoyed it ! Thanks for watching.. I have a bunch of rice videos if you're interested

Man, I'd love to get up there and check out some corn harvest but I been burning the roads the last three weekends with rice and need a break lol.. How long should they be harvesting?

@@AerialAg most the farmers here finish their corn around the 20th.

With such an amazing machine, you can begin at 4:AM! & be done by Lunch!!

Thanks! I usually try to get some shots like that, but on this day there was a storm approaching so I was trying to squeeze out every bit of combine footage I could get.

Rice special combines have a different concave, but in general the internal parts are just tougher because rice is such a tough crop it wears the combines down alot if they are not rice specials

July 30. 2022. As a Civilian, (Not a Farmer)!, I've seen that modern Tech has led to too much land being farmed, & too much Aquifer water being used for such massive irrigation projects! ..Brothers & sisters! We've got to Slow things down! I suggest you all let a 1/4 of you're land return to Natures embrace! This benefits all Farmers in the end! As it reserves precious Aquifer waters, & Hunters will rejoice! As Deer & Gamebirds move back into those Reborn bushlands!! &!! The hunters will Pay you to hunt there!! You're the Winner in this game dear Farmers! Holy God guide you!

Thanks man, actually this field was very dry for rice harvest. If you look at a couple of my previous videos you’ll see a much more muddy rice harvest..

@@AerialAg haha!! Yeah I seen another before I watched this one and it was much muddier! Oh and you're more than welcome!

The X9 cost about one million USD my friend.. not including the header. Big bucks lol

Hello back, so do I !

@@AerialAg how much money is needed, have x9

@@thannham8679 I think its right under a million dollars USD

45 foot head .. and yes that 8R was pretty sweet !

I might have to check them out.. I saw an all Case operation a couple weeks ago.. I have a video of it up.

@@AerialAg awesome! Love your videos! Keep up the great work!!

@@b.m.breaux7401 Thanks a lot I appreciate the support!

The farmer was surely happy with it.

Thank you!!

Ideal moisture is around 18-20% for harvest if I'm not mistaken. In Louisiana most farmers measure yield by barrels per acre, 162 lbs per barrel. Hybrid varieties are reaching over 50 barrels per acre, between 40 and 50 is not bad, depending on the numerous factors farmers face (price, weather, bills, etc..)

Thanks, no this is a class 10 machine. We touched on that topic of them using tracked tractors but I don't think I got a solid answer. I may try and visit this farmer again in a couple weeks to go see this monster again, if I do I'll find out for sure.

@@AerialAg How high do these 'classes' go then.? - I have always been led to believe class 9 were the highest/biggest in rating and capacity. Or is it, if the likes of JD or CaseIH build an even bigger "Monster" then the class rating will get go up even more. The very large farms use bigger 'grain' trailers, - that one was getting 'pushed to the limit' taking the contents of those 2.

Christopher Lovelock That's exactly right, class 9 was the biggest but they've simply just built bigger. The outside isn't that much bigger, but the cleaning area, grain tank, engine etc etc are all much higher capacity.. the farmer was very impressed with this machine.. he said he can cut much faster and here was nothing on the ground behind.

@@AerialAg HI. Not being rude to you at all as a proud US Citizen, but to use an English expression, - "trust the yanks to build, (whatever it is), taller, wider, longer or more powerful". From your 'shots' it looked wider and quite a bit longer, that 'grain tank' looked massive, I was wondering how much heavier it is when it's full. I could see those tracks were w-i-d-e (lol), but aren't they going to find problems with 'sinking in' on any soft ground when loaded, - (or are they all going to be 'Tracked'). What's it going to be like if 'MacDon' or JD bring out a header that's even bigger than the 50' one you can get now. Oh, yes just out of interest - How Much Is It.? Cheers. .. Chris.

@@christopherlovelock9104 I believe the grain tank is about 1.5 of what S790 has. I heard through the grapevine that JD will be making even larger models in the next couple years. Not sure how true that is but one does have to wonder how big can they get? This field was pretty dry (especially for rice harvest) so I didn't get to see it in the mud. If the weather cooperates I may try to make another trip out and see this machine again so maybe I'll know more then. I believe its $975,000 w/o the header.

Not sure, I was racing the rain so I didn't get a chance to jump in the cab

It's harvested at about 18 19%

@@chrismeche8008 I appreciate you letting me know

That's a great question and honestly I'm not sure. I'm not a farmer. I just love farm machinery and happen to have photography as a hobby. If I had to guess I'd say the smashed parts would not grow back.. I can ask next time I talk to a rice farmer though.

yes you can. usually but it doesn't catch up the stubble that didn't get flatten rice farmers roll after so they can be even. I think its better to mow it.

This farmer also has some land in Lake Arthur, not far from you

@@AerialAg damn I’m fixing to work for klumpp

Damn that’s cool Gerald klumpp?

You should add me on snap tho so we can keep touch

@@ianfontenot5659 That's Oak Tree farms? I have a video of them, I saw them last year.

The farmers down here in South Louisiana flood the fields after harvest and raise crawfish. The chaft provides food and protection from predators for the crawfish.

@@AerialAg oh! Neat.

I believe some farms may do that but not here in Louisiana. They will flood and raise crawfish in these fields after harvest. The crawfish need the straw.

Sorry but I don't like the sound of my voice on recordings and I just do this for fun.. They harvest rice pretty much like soybeans or wheat if you're familiar with that

You are correct but this farmer was specifically selected to get a rice model this year .. Deere was in the area doing work on other prototype machines though

What's up Marcus!

Man its hot out here in north texas temp 104° degrees 😫 😩 out here chasing S790'S and S780'S and X9-1000's and X9-1100's harvesting wheat up here by the texas Oklahoma state line

Header is 45 ft

No they bought this one. The rice version is not in production yet and they are till working on it. Deere picked this farm to get one with the rice package early. They weren't sure why they were selected but jumped on the opportunity. I thought the bean/corn version was ready to go this year?

@@AerialAg i might be thinking of the 9r series 2022 release also that 8r looks amazing with deep lug tires looks like a proper tractor

@@angus4202 Yea it was cool to see. This fleet was pretty much all brand new .. I was like a kid at Disney World lol

@@AerialAg Is this heaven? Close enough. Beautiful beast.

I have a bunch on my channel, check 'em out !

I just do this as a hobby, and I don't care for my voice on recordings.. Its just a combine cutting some rice, what questions did you have?

Sure doesn't

Nope they bought it
