Thanks for your excellent video. I am a subscriber. If corn silage, potatoes, sugar beet etc can be dumped into a truck while the harvester keeps going, there is no reason why wheat cant be dumped into a semi while the combine continues to harvest the wheat. By eliminating the tractor and cart it means less augering of the grain which means less fines in the grain, less diesel used, less wear on machinery, less manpower required, less soil compaction of the soil since a tractor and cart dont have to drive back and forth between the combine and truck. This will mean higher profits.
At a rate of 110 pounds wheat seed a total of 4 plus hours times 3 seed drones gives me a ruff ideal of 2025 winter wheat your video seeded. THAT WAS AWESOME IDEAL for double crop.
Yes, sir! Thanks for the comment. Also, be watching our channel as we plan to do a follow up video after the corn is chopped and the wheat has sprouted.
Is this the first year you’ve tried this? I assume you’ll turn the pivot on until the wheat has sprouted. How many pivot passes do you anticipate are needed?
Hello! This is the first time we've tried seeding with an unmanned aircraft(s). You're correct, once the corn is chopped to silage (any day now as the crews are chopping now), we'll then run the pivot 2-3 passes contingent on any rain that we receive during the next month or so. I'm planning to make a follow up video and will provide some footage of the circle once the corn is off and the wheat has sprouted. If you think of any other questions, just shoot them our way. Thank you!
Great video! I have the same cap as the operator! Early season milo harvest has already begun here in the Texas panhandle. I have some drone footage of it on some shorts of my channel if you would like to see.
Thank you and glad you're liking the hat!!! Good to hear milo harvest is underway. We're still a month or so out here in Kansas. We'll check out the drone footage! Thanks for the comment!
We do not have any video of the field after the weeds died but that is a good idea for a future video. With the milo being so tall, it was hard to see any of the weeds below the canopy. Thank you for the suggestion!
Que belleza de tractores, hasta parece la vitrina de mis juguetes...para mi ir en un viaje de turista a un lugar como este, y conocer personas como estas seria mejor que ir a Disney... Saludos desde México
Tool box in the cab is best never seen that before awesome to see the appreciation of these series sad to see what the next generations of farmers if they will appreciate these tractors and the 6030 to out pull 46 series is very interesting !!!
There needs to be another competitor for stripper heads such as MacDon, Agco, Honeybee, JD; Case/IH; NH or any other company. Agco used to make stripper heads but they stopped making them.
Thank you for the comment! We're in the process of ordering more merch, so stay tuned on our channel for more giveaways!! You might check out a vendor by the name of Applequist who make the Falcon Stripper Header.
There are a few strippers on farms in Europe for harvesting grass seed. After harvest the grass then recovers for a while before it then gets mowed and baled for cattle feed. I have also seen them used for soybeans and oats. Where a crop can lay on the ground they work well. A second more niche use for a stripper in Europe is for traditional roofing straw called thatch. They grow a 4 foot long wheat variety where the long straw is way more valuable than the grain. They strip the grain from the long stalks, then cut the stalks with a bar knife and then finally round bale it very loosely so as not to break the stalks so that it can be unrolled and used for thatched straw roofs on ancient houses. A barn on a farm that I visit stores hundreds of bales for this use every year.
