Glad you got it in the bin, weather has sure been crazy

We have not had more than a sprinkle of rain in over six weeks and nothing called for the next ten days. Soybeans at 7-8% moisture. Corn running in the upper teens and low 20s.

Neat to see footage of batt reels in action, not many of those left

It’s not been a fun harvest. 4 weight oats and 2 weight barley that probably won’t make malt although I don’t rely on it making malt as a rule. I somehow managed to swath my wheat and get it picked up without getting much rain on it so no sprouts and decent colour. Canola is done so just flax left. I’m glad I didn’t swath the flax yet, it would not have liked all of this wind. Looks like the weather is improving for next week so it might be swath flax one day and pick it up the next type of thing. As long as the 1682 takes the flax straw alright and doesn’t wrap too much. It’s funny, not that many years ago the combining didn’t really start until October. Now, once it just turns to October, I get panicky and want it to end so I can haul my straw bales home and get my fall banding done.

Cold miserable and wet here today. Not as windy as down south by any means but still not nice out in the open. Next week sounds like slightly better weather so hopefully you can get back at it. Might be the last kick at the can unfortunately.

Good evening Ralph in Manitoba we get to much wind too I just hope the weather gets nice again so we can finish our harvest, the corn silage is finished today not as much as in other years but at least there is no corn to combine this year last year it took to mid December to get that done. I reckon the cats pulled straws which one goes outside to check when the food is coming 😉

Good evening Roosty! Get it done while you can!!

Very good looking harvest. Hope the canola didn't fly to fsr...

Hey roosty. Been a long time follower of your channel, in fact it’s what inspired me to buy my own 7721, just wanted to ask a question. What made you choose a self propelled swather over a pulltype, I settled for a pulltype due to price, but honestly I have grown quite fond of it

I'm not to sure why you wait so long in the year to harvest. Everyone in the area is just about done

What variety of wheat are you harvesting?? Looks great.

magnum runs good :) i got a magnum video coming up soon.

Be very careful out there that the green combine doesn't eat up the red tractor. LOL. Your garden looks great.

I wont dig the spuds for a bit yet.

Hey buddy.

Nice looking winrows you have there! I would love to run a combine in those fields!! We're hoping to start shelling corn in a few days here in southeast PA.

I came back to watch again. I just noticed the 510 had no chopper? Did you disc behind?

I would love nothing better to be out there helping I really miss Harvest here's hoping the weather clears and have Great Harvest

Who driving the swather?

Rainy day, good day for a garden update! About the only thing left to harvest here, is corn silage and sweet corn.. Nice having a spare machine when needed! Thank you Roosty! Hopefully the weather cooperates so you can finish up!!

Love your old farm trucks. The thing I like the most is they still work for a living.🙋‍♂😊

Hi Ralph thank you for the harvest update and awesome story about the big slue (I have to check your blog about that, always enjoy reading your blogs) My grandma dad's mom used to bake things with walnuts even baking it in bread, she always put them on top of her chocolate cakes after she made a chocolate glace over it. I still got some potatoes in the garden too, but I think they will last till end of October, going to grow more next year. Last Friday we started with the soybeans about a quarter is done now but a field or two still greenish so that has to wait for a while. When one thinks about it almost every combine full feeds a family per year maybe more

Ah, the patience of harvest.

always an adventure

Long live the farmer

Didnt know this was up. Sheesh. Just popped up. It rained here again this morning. We havent combined since Saturday now.

Spits just enough moisture to keep the combines parked here too.

great old truck, i dont have any IH trucks sadly

wish my l-130 had that tow hitch.

Good morning Roosty ☕☕☕ Free is a good price!! That seems like pretty good patching material, a few more rocks in it would be better, but..

Sandy clay should pack in well.

G day Roosty Yes the word free seems to help sometimes. Thanks I remember in our lane water puddle the more u drove thur with water in the bigger it got. Ths

Sounds like you're getting too much rain at the wrong time & we're getting nothing for a long time. Grass is brown & have to keep watering what's left in the garden !

We were back on canola today again. Was down in the 8’s. Saying a chance of rain tonight or tomorrow morning again though so it might be short lived. Try and haul out a bit of wheat maybe if it rains tomorrow. Have about a 1000 bushels of this years wheat tying up a 4800 bu bin so that’s not good.

Theres no gravel near me. It all has to be trucked in. Costs a small fortune.

We were rained out again today. Its getting old lol

still think theres a market for a modern pull type

always cool to rewatch your older videos, just to think I was three years old that year time sure flies.

G day Roosty I phone my case ih dealer 154 for 20 litres, but they have bulk sale in Feb or March 116; They r right across famous JD , he figured it would be more. Yes no leaky hoses Thanks

haha if i had a dime for every time i was sent on top or inside to unplug one of our old massey's i would be rich, but i do miss it. hate to hear the rain put a pause on things but luckily you got less than we did. i have two gauges around the yard and both read over an inch of rain. hope it dries up soon and harvest runs smooth for you

BTO with two combines! 😅

Oh that’s so neat ,you got a 7721. Very cool.

Greetings from the US. I’ve been wondering after watching some of your videos why the old equipment was never traded in or sold for scrap? I do like seeing the old metal so from that standpoint I’m glad it’s still around.

that sure doesn't sound like fun climbing ontop of the straw walkers and laying on top of em, hope ya don't have to do that again this year. hope that rain stops for a few days with some nice warm weather oh was wondering did you combine that wheat field that you swathed awhile ago? awesome video as always

getting something done is better then getting nothing done lol

Good evening Roosty. I don't miss plugged walkers. Spent way too much time inside, digging them out.. usually had to take a walker or two home to fix..

Had to crawl in ontop the walkers of the 850 Massey a few times. Never a fun job. Used to ha e problems with the chopper plugging too if it got tough or the weeds weren’t fully dried down. Don’t think we ever went one complete harvest with it without dropping some straw. Rained on and off today again. Didn’t amount to much but sure didn’t dry much either.
