Grew up on a small family-only pig farm in Denmark in the 60-70'ies, with about 20 ha of barley and 10 ha of potatoes, one David Brown 880 and one very small McCormick Farmall 430.

Glad you said something about the noise. Ever since the S series came out I’ve heard lots of people say they’re loud inside. I can’t believe it because the previous models were louder as well as any other machine I’ve been in. Maybe they need to be opening their cab doors more often during operation to get a better since of how it really sounds. As well as to listen for any bad noises that can become problems. Keep up the great videos!!

19 years old? Looks like it just rolled off the factory floor. That's not an accident - good on you for keeping your equipment in top condition. What you said about slowing down after sunset, I had the same problem. What I did was to add aircraft landing lights to the equipment so that I could see further on from where I was working. It's the same sort of argument that you have with driving a car at night and not wanting to drive beyond your headlights. A rack of LED lights on the cab should do the trick.

for those who may not know, when he talks about 1/4 section that is 160 acres. 1 sq mile = 640 acres more or less. and cutting 300 plus in a day is getting things done. I am not anyway familiar with JD engines, but that older combine probably does not have common rail fuel system , the newer combine may have it and that 680 almost certainly does have common rail fuel system. the major problem with all common rail fuel system is this, if an injector tip gets stuck open or a tip gets blown off, as long as the engine is turning the fuel pump is pushing fuel. that means fuel is going into a cylinder uncontrolled. the ecm can no longer control the fuel, the engine will pick up rpms until parts scatter everywhere. only two chances of stopping it, cut a fuel line or punch a hole in a fuel filter. and the engine still may explode before it runs out of fuel. that old combine has a bosch or similar type fuel pump one pump plunger, metering device per cyl. completely different theory of operation.

We have had a 680 for 2 seasons now. The first month of rice harvest I bet I didnt run it a full 2 days. It was having all kinds of electrical problems. Since we started harvesting back around Sept 8th or so our john deere bill for the 680 has been 22k. I know other guys who have had the same problems but I also know guys who've never had to turn a wrench on theirs. It's been running good for a couple weeks now so maybe itll be ok after spending over 20k on it I sure hope so. Other machine is a 9870 it's a damn good combine weve always been pleased with it. But I agree they all have problems. You might get a real good one or a real bad one. Weve got 2 jd flex drapers and we love em. We cut rice as well so it's our best option for rice and beans. Hope the rest of your harvest goes well. Its rained every week in northeast Arkansas. Cant get much done like that but it's coming along slowly but surely.

Draper headers definitely feed better whether they are MacDon, John Deere, Honey Bee, or whatever brand. They also float better which is good if you have rocks or uneven ground. To cut shatter loss and improve feeding try a Crary air reel. In our area (Thief River Falls) even the guys with draper headers are adding air reels.

Yes. When bean prices were higher it took fewer acres to justify the extra cost but it's still worth it. When he has beans popping out when standing in the field it takes even fewer acres to pay for it. I'd say you can easily justify a draper if you harvest 1000 acres of beans per year. At a minimum you'll get another 1 to 2 bushels per acre but you also pick up ground speed since the beans feed into the combine at a more even pace. Time is money. The combine doesn't have to work as hard when beans feed evenly. I've had a draper for five years and don't regret it. I paid more for the draper than my house but the house doesn't combine beans.

Our beans are done, just waiting to get corn done. Also, you say the unload auger is quieter, but for some reason, I quite like the sound of the unload auger

I have never lived on a farm, I have never dealt with anything remotely close to farming, I've lived in the city my entire life.... and somehow this is the most interesting thing to me and cant stop watching your videos lol

I hope you had a good harvest day I farm in Illinois and we had 7 different combine fires around us today

Got to say whatever your brand loyalty, 19 years on any piece of kit with no major issues is good going.

Douglas Orr I agree. We own a jd 4640, owned it least 18 years, and the biggest issue I can remember was the hydraulic pump going out on it. Used to be used every year moving round hay out of the field till we quit running our feedlot operation.

Love your videos I love the diff between Australia harvest and your harvest were harvesting oats at the moment

You just gave me Draper head fever! We are having a hell of a time with shelling. I think I should probably upgrade to a combine that’s newer than 1981 first lol

We have a case axial flow 8120 with a MacDon header and it works very well.

Jaysus, that's one fine looking machine. 19 years old, it looks like new!

9760 with 35’ Draper in hard winter wheat and yes I always find myself running almost 1 mph slower after dark, even with HID working lights on the cab

The nice thing about the S680 over S670 is the unloading auger gears run in oil And yes I always slow down when it gets dark

If you do get one of them headers, I suggest getting the macdon header if possible in your area if you are not already familier with them.

I am so fascinated watching this! Obviously I'm not a farmer. I sure like watching this. I'm going to have to beg someone to let me ride along.

I have a 2014 s680 and I love it I would highly recommend you getting one in the next few years

Always like watching your coverage! Non-farmer here, but there is something about an open field/sky/sun and a sense of freedom. Seeing the work, planning, set-backs that put food on the table for America! Keep up the good work! A few questions: Do you implement the use of drones throughout the growing season? Seemed like this year, corn was a lot higher then "Knee high, by the 4th of July" did yields increase this growing season? Lastly..by chance can you advertise you cell carrier Verizon or T-mobile (being in a rural area)??...awesome tunes in the cab.
