Harvest 2018 rolls on...for the most part. Today we had a belt break on our John Deere 9870. The soybeans are wetter than we would like.

We combined about 40 acres of beans today. They were around 15%. The ground was actually pretty good. We were evan able to load the trucks in the field. I hope you guys are able to find some dry beans. Weather sounds nice though. They're saying mid 60's on Thursday. Thanks for the video

I remember when all fields looked like that when everyone farmed on the shares. Haul the customers to the elevator in town haul ours to the scales and then grain bins. So you would see fields all over will 12 rows standing 12 rows shelled. At that time most grain heads were 6 row. Great content as always 👍

@SoybeanFarmer3300 5 лет назад

with my little John Deere 3300 85hp diesel I just don't have the hp to bring in high moisture beans. this leaves me with no choice but to wait for 13% or below. wet flexible bean stalks just won't go through the concave. and then there is the mill dockage for high moisture beans making me wish I'd waited. huge difference in our farming considerations due to our extremely different climates. Minnesota and North Carolina are like two different worlds this time of the year. thanks for taking us along on your harvest.

@lfeco 5 лет назад

I'm in the grain business and we really appreciate guys who DON"T bring in wet beans. Look at the forecast, they'll dry out. If you farm so damn much ground you have to grind out wet ones, maybe you have too much.

@chickenpermission 5 лет назад

@larrymangan3261 5 лет назад

To get that cob out of the sample, open the bottom sieve completely open (straight up) and adjust the top sieve until the sample is clean (with whatever fan speed is necessary). That allows the air to get up through the sieves and cleans the sample. I know your corn is higher moisture than you would like and it may not be an option to slow the rotor and/or open the concaves, but that will keep from breaking the cob up into small pieces.

@SomeTechGuy666 5 лет назад

Listen to this man.

@farmermatt629 5 лет назад

I would agree

@treytonzoss1853 5 лет назад

This year we ran our bottom sieve wide open, and shut our top sieve to about 3/8's or so. it worked great in corn! Also adjusting the rotor speed and concave is important (to not shred up cobs)

@MrJohnnyScrabble 5 лет назад

Here's hoping the beans cooperate in a timely manner for you. Been very wet too down here around Des Moines and Ft. Dodge. Several fields haven't even been touched yet. Thanks again for the great content. Been watching all your videos from the very beginning over the last few weeks, finally caught up. Really enjoy your straight up, this is how it is style and character. And as a bonus, I do understand your humor, even in text form!! I delivered a couple of cultivators to Midwest back in January and February of this year. Good folks up there. Very friendly to work with and quick to off load a flat bed! (I'm sure the temperature had nothing to do with it...) Keep the videos coming, and here's hoping for a safe, plentiful, and happy harvest the rest of the season for you! #ForPetesSakeBeck Haha

Love your videos. Very educational. Not a farmer myself. I have a 50 mile commute to work through he country. As I look at the fields being harvested I wondered why I would see certain rows being left behind. Now I know.

The rows you're seeing left are probably there for an insurance adjuster to inspect

Hi Zach! Long time watcher, first time commenting. How do you go about measuring the moisture of the corn? Is there a specific gauge or tool? Curious about the moisture points system.

Don't worry what other farmers think of your fields. I think it is great that you tested 2 different varieties in the same field like that.
