Makes you think the next time you go to the grocery store and see all those cans of corn, all the machinery it takes to produce them and the operators that have to know what they’re doing. Quite amazing.

Dad raised about 5 acres of sweet corn back in the 70's & 80's. It was a strictly "hands on" operation. I remember early on we sold it for 40 cents a dozen. I guess that's why we never owned an OxBo. lol! Great video Jason!

Next time you’re on the east coast come check out Delaware and eastern shore Maryland, lots of sizable farms, large equipment and variety of crops. Delaware has plenty of row crops as well as truck farming operations; sweet corn, green beans, Lima beans, watermelon, and during late spring you can catch the green pea harvests

A lot of sweet corn in my home state of Delaware too! One local farm saves the cobs from field corn! It's a giant machine pulled behind a combine. The cobs are hauled off site and ground up for chicken house bedding! Delmarva is famous for our chicken 🐔 Perdue and Mountaire are based here!

This is cool to see Jason. Sweet corn is grown in Bainbridge, in southwest Georgia where I’m from, but mostly migrant workers do that on these custom made harvesters that they sit on made from old military trucks. Oxbo makes some cool harvesters. I’m sure you’ve heard of the Vogel vegetable harvesters too.

@bigtractorpower 10 ай бұрын

Very much so. Byron was the original builder of of these sweet corn picker. They started out as a New Idea dealer to source Uni power units to mount Byron red beet harvesters on. In 1974 Byron developed a sweet corn harvester for the Uni. In 1984 Byron released the 8400 which was a beefed up power unit and harvester. The 8420 followed and Byron acquired its competitor Pixall and formed OXBO. The 8420 XL came online then the 8430 and in 2021 the 8530. They have been in the sweet corn harvesting business almost 50 years.

The machinery is very cool indeed. I have another take away also. From reading the comments many seem to gloss over the fact that the "food shortage " is a myth. There is an over abundance of greed. So much of agriculture land is used to feed the industrial appetite and not the sustenance of humans and live stock.
