50ft JOHN DEERE HD50R Draper Harvesting Soybeans 

This technology wasn't invented buy Deere, they were late to the party by years.

Because of the beans blown over they have to have it down. I know this from personal experience. If you don’t do that the beans do not feed in well and grain loss can occur. However in my opinion that’s too low, and you will start loosing grain doing that too

u see how fast he had it running

I would slow it down some to avoid knocking beans out of the pods. Even so it beats the heck out of the John Deere 45 with a 10 foot header that I started with 50 years ago! I can’t imagine one combine with grain header costing right at 1 million dollars !

Agreed

40 year old New Holland Technology with Green Paint

comes with a cost.

The 8010 is a nice combine. Congrats on a successful harvest.

😁👍👍

Thank you for watching.

@@bigtractorpower You're welcome

It’s fun filming these machines at work.

This was a fun filming opportunity

good for you bud. 9500 was and is one of the best

How fast do you go? I thought 25 was the limit for a 9500

Your expense $ 35000 this x9 with head $ 10000000

Great video

Yea but man they have problems at 25 years old. We are down day after day. Had to have a sts rotary come save us. It was good for it's time and still good for around 1000 acres.

We thought 24 was big time.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching.

that machine ain't exactly crawlin neither

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching.

It is a monster.

The X9 combine is an impressive harvester.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching.

What part of the world were u...where they call the cops?

@@wLBlue New Jersey, New Yorkers who moved from the city, aka city slickers!

Piss on them

Very true.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching.

I have filmed in Gibson City. 😁👍. The 9770 is one of my favorites. Thank you for watching.

The hinge flex is impressive. This fields were so flat there was not allot of flex to see.

@@bigtractorpower to fff f f f and f tv news Today

The first combine I ever rode on was a 1060.

👍👍

The X9 can cover the acres. A big new Case IH combine is not too far away. As these machines grow to the size of the CLAAS 8800 50ft drapers will be needed to keep them rolling at peak efficiency.

I would like to track down an 8800 as well. I just filmed an 8700 over the weekend. It was impressive.

@@bigtractorpower They are really impressive, especially in Corn. There is a video here on youtube, with a guy demoing an 8700 with a 12 row. He was running 7-8 mph, and the head maxed out before the combine.

Monster combine for sure.

Congrats on the chrome X9. Very cool.

@@bigtractorpower Thank You Sir for showing us all this Great Farm Equipment. My Hat is off to You👍

I want a 1/64 version. But I can't find a header cart big enough for the draper.

What part of the country?

@@shaggydogg630 southern Michigan and Northern Ohio. We farm in South East Michigan near the Ohio border. We farm 8000 acres between our land and rented ground plus we do custom farming.

Nice combines.

They were neat to spend time with.

Thank you for watching. Soybeans are a very dusty crop to film.

It’s a game of quantity. Just 1000 acres at 90 bushels per acre would be 90,000 X current soybean market $12.32 = 1 million 108 thousand and 800 dollars More than likely they farm more than 1000 acres. They ain’t hurting. lol

@@davidoden It ain't all profit, son!

​@@davidoden Good math, highest number you ever see on the yield monitor X price X acres = farmers take home pay

"time is money" meaning if the product is *just right* then the more massive the volume throughput the better *QUALITY* is the outcome. That means *COMMANDING* a higher price. With prices this high just for beans creating a "premium product" really counts as you want to separate yourself from the competition. In short even at one million us dollars "worth every penny" if you know what you are doing and you have top shelf weather conditions as appears to be the case for 2021. Same said be true for wheat, corn, oilseeds, peanuts... making *quality* in the agricultural business is really really really hard...but some times you get lucky and now seems like one of those times. Good news for Big Grocery (Kroger, Publix, Royal Ahold, etc) certainly! This excludes obvious savings in fuel and possibly maintenance costs although I don't really know how all this new electronic gizmo stuff in fact actually works at the Dealership level. Top shelf business model for the Farming Community at the moment seems to me tho. Gives John Deere an opening into small scale 100 acre farming in theory as well now ("Good works tractor" RU-vid channel.) Just ten acres and a greenhouse can yield an enormous amount of food and do so Year around. Very surprised to see pricing where it is at the moment but as the saying goes "make while the Sun is shining!" absolutely. Take it right from the combine to the food processor at these prices. Surprised the food Company hasn't shown up to the field and take that problem off the harvesters mind now that I think about it as "time is money" to them even moar bigly. "Need to get their product on store shelves immediately immediately immediately immediately immediately immediately immediately" when consumers are hurting like this and just refusing to consume. Long $tsla Tesla Motors Strong buy

@@MilkMan608 yea, I know that just did the gross. What I am saying is they ain’t living on food stamps.

He has it going to fast and it is to low and could go ahead a little.

@@freebooter247 Deere actually have the 50 foot out a year before Macdon has the FD250, Honey bee was out for a few years earlier with the airflex but the 60 foot is a rigid only header so you won't see it in soybeans, peas or anything you need to shave the ground.

i think every one copied deeres single point hookup all companys copy

@@freebooter247 Is there some sort of rule book or a game with points? What a ridiculous comment. Any manufacturer giving farmers another choice of equipment is a good thing. It's a one-upmanship contest only played by Internet wannabes.

Machines have grown and grown. It will be interesting to see what the limit in size will be.

@@bigtractorpower size is Probly going to be maxed in 10 years. Going to full auto so they will run alot later and longer will be the next HP wars. Put us all out of a job in 15 years.

Thank you for watching.

Wow awesome harvesting team.

@@bigtractorpower 😉 Like your vidyas.

Thank you for watching.

From the guys I know they say a lex 750 will still slay an x9 and do what 2 s680s will do. What the 8900 lex can do is almost pointless unless your in Nebraska wheat and tough straw. We not a big enough operation to even demo such things.

@@MRSludgedude one problem i see, same here in the uk, is that the output of these x9 combines, the 8900 etc have such massive output that the grain augers, drying systems, corn carts etc cannot keep up. I grew up driving a 13foot cut new holland and thought the 20 foot cut a neighbour had was huge at the time, amazing how things have progressed

@@bens8919 yea we can't keep up at the elevators wen they run a lex . Nobody has any x9 here. But a few have 740 and 750 lexion and they do the work of 2 deere s680s at much less HP .

@@MRSludgedude If that were true everyone would just run a Claas. Period.

@@davidwilson1107 no because they have a bad rap on service and parts. Plus they cost more than a deere. Break down you might wait two weeks for parts. Deere keeps you going in hours . Seldom any down time with deere. The guys in the field next to us run 2 770s and other runs a lex 740 and the 740 gets done at the same time as the two greenies. And a 740 is one of the smallest. Now I can't say who has more loss. Everybody here blows it out the back no matter what color.

Which of the two headers do you like better?

Thank you for watching.

A combine is a big ol' sifter - you can change the "screen" size to select for the crop you're harvesting. To maximize harvest of the beans the plants need to be dry enough that the pods crack cleanly & release all the beans inside the combine.

@@ryanwaege7251 Thankyou. Amazing equipment.

There are 60ft drapers in Australia where the ground is flatter and grain yields are lower from the dry climate.

😀

Thank you for watching.

I am not sure.

Already filmed 😁👍👍.

The 6620 is a great combine.

Use to run a 6620 but got rid of it because it didnt have a fridge or kitchen sink or bathroom.
