  • To answer some of your quastions: The crops yielded between 1.5 t/ha in canola to 6t/ha in some of the swathed barley, but the majority was wheat which averaged around the 3.5t/ha.

    The lexion 600 has a 45 foot front, and the newhollands had 40's

    Harvest didn't really start till November and were finished by christmas eve.

  • what's on the back of new hollands @4:00?

  • @08plexus :

    There was Cyclones (the black bin on the back of the headers) fitted to two of the CR which allowed the chaff to be placed on top of the swath, where it was then baled and the bales turned into compost, this cut down on weeds, because the majority of the weed seeds are in the chaff.

  • Mud Flaps are for flattening canola, wheat barley stalks before the tires roll over them. The Straw stalks damage the lugs on the tires over time, its mad!

  • Just North of Esperance,

  • A 11,000 Ha farm, Western Australia. One farmer, two farms, two CR9080's, a 9070, a 970 and a Lexion 600.

  • Hello, What is in the tank being pulled behind the Macdon Swather. I have never seen anyone apply a product onto swathed canola before. Would it be something like a Pod Sealant ??

  • POLACY przejmują te żniwa :)

  • incredible ! im going to be doing that in a few years !

  • Класс!!!!

    Klass!!!!!

  • Those GPS units make some nice blocks! My crew were rolling in Deere 9860s with no GPS so we basically had to guess where to strike out. Lots of wasted time picking up 10 foot swaths to finish a block. Those front dual wheels look pretty badass too. Last season was really wet in NSW and our 2wd machines just sunk in the mud too many times to count.

  • wot is the name of dis guy.is he sound to work for.few of us heading out there to do combines

  • that intro is fuckin' quality with the header revving up ! 

  • Could you tell me who this contracting company is? or who you worked for. They seem a smart setup and wouldnt mind working there. Cheerz

  • who was the bloke you were working for? cool vid though

  • Yield isn't very high at 3:58 (look how little grain is going over the draper..)
