Muddy Caseih Corn Harvest 2008

[knutson246810]

Nothing like picking corn in the mud.

hi we are planting corn but our corn length is very long like 3-4 meters also,  one decare gives two tons corn sometimes much more than 2 tons

[Farmerknowsbest]

Well that is not a common crop of corn for this area at all! That is a very wet area of a field and so the corn was set back considerably. Not only that, we had a heavy snow storm before we started harvesting and that broke almost every stalk to make it look even shorter. In a good year our corn will be 3 meters as well and yield on average 4.5tonnes per acre. I am not familiar with decare as a measurement of area.

that look like a real waste of time there is no corn going in u should have parked it did that farm yeild 50 b/a

[Farmerknowsbest]

I do not agree with you at all. The field yielded much more than 50bu. You are more than welcome to leave money in the field, it is not our way.

[ThankGodImCountryBoy]

ya the only time we dont harvest is if the corn is not going the pay the fuel cost of the combine which is not very often

[03800rev]

@Farmerknowsbest did u lay tile in ur ruts

[TOOLfan8700]

cool gods country what side of ottawa i'm west

[kinser7220]

man i cant believe you didnt get stuck! that combine had to have rear assist didnt it? Should get some tracks. lol

[Farmerknowsbest]

Yes it is RWA. The front tires are also R-2 treads so they take a good bite. Tracks would be nice but are expensive to be only needed every so often.

how come you were tring out new combines if you have a 2003 2388 we have a 1990 1640 and its never left us behind

[Farmerknowsbest]

The farm is expanding and the capabilities of a 2388 is not enough to take care of it. Either 2 88's or a new bigger combine is needed. We traded a 1988 1660 for this 2388 in 2004. Those 1600 series machines were bullet proof.

[Farmerknowsbest]

Thanks man!!!

[oneskip]

man, that was wet. have you seen case ih's new 9120 track combine?

[Farmerknowsbest]

They would be nice for sure, but our Rice tires get us through a lot!

[ACFarmer89]

Doesn't look like your getting much there.

[Farmerknowsbest]

You get what you get some years I guess.

[LADUGE]

No, I'm just getting around to putting up harvest videos. We finished a week before Christmas in the snow.
