2020 Louisiana Sugar Cane Grinding Has Begun!

Carmouche Planting Company in Belle Rose Louisiana on their first day of sugar cane harvest called "grinding" by us in Louisiana. They are operating two John Deere CH570 cane harvesters one being a 2021 model.

[@jeanandre6129]

I am enjoying your video. I am filled with nostalgia and regret watching this sugar cane harvest. Back in the day ,in my country we had a big sugar cane Plant (Hasco),we had multiple sugar cane farms. The Plant was closed. We lost everything.

[@robertlandry3490]

Fantastic. I see the crop wasn’t hurt too bad from the hurricanes. I love how the harvesters can pick up the crooked cane. Best wishes for the rest of the harvest.

[@PaulPupur]

That's cool brother, very love it, sugarcane harvester by John deere CH570 ❤️

[@kennethhuff7158]

Looks like a good harvest ,thank you for all the hard work .

[@joebridges3165]

Wow, that harvester trims, cleans and chops the stalks. I remember living near the cane fields in Florida back in the 1980's when they'd burn the cane fields to remove the leaves before cutting. Pretty nasty when the wind blew into town.

[@AerialAg]

It's messy but I love the smell of burnt cane!

[@FEVB]

Man the working width of sugarcane machinery seems like a pain compared to a grain harvester!

[@AerialAg]

Yep its a much slower and labor intensive process. That's why harvest lasts 3 + months.

[@BRPFan]

Awesome video my friend! That new harvester just about bent his conveyor on the wagon when he went through that first soft spot! 😮

[@AerialAg]

Thanks buddy! Yea, first time I ever caught one on video lean like that lol.

[@BRPFan]

Aerial Ag At first I thought it was going tip on its side but it all worked out!

[@AerialAg]

Brp Fan Yea I'm glad I was not in the combine lol, I had just gotten out.. after that pass he started tracking over the cane rows and went around that bad hole

[@BRPFan]

Aerial Ag Good thing you weren’t in the cab when that happened! 😮 That was a bad soft spot! Sure glad it all worked out, hate to bury a new combine!

[@legaxful]

Amazing, good shot, always watch your videos, thanks for the upload!

[@sarahandtim332]

Great improvement with cinematography

[@christopherlovelock9104]

Great video, - nice to see you back in the sky. That could have turned into a very nasty accident at the 7.00 spot, - brave driver to keep going, as it's not as if they exactly have a clear view of the ground ahead. He could have gone either way. Personally I think it was only the weight of the unloading arm with contents that made him lean towards that trailer, then it was "touch and go" as we say.

[@AerialAg]

Thanks.. Yea I had just gotten out the cab when that happened. First time I ever filmed something like that. He tracked over the cane rows and went around that spot after that happened. I was looking forward to going next weekend, but we have a hurricane headed straight for us so it may be awhile before I get back out.

[@christopherlovelock9104]

@@AerialAg - You were lucky there in more ways than one. If a hurricane hits a cane field does it uproot it and dump it somewhere else or just flatten it. Having seen what it does to houses etc. I suppose a cane field doesn't stand any chance at all.

[@AerialAg]

Christopher Lovelock it just flattens it..

[@Hunter1968]

I am a South African sugar farmer. That Cane looks very green with a long cane top. Do you not ripen your sugar cane to increase sucrose content?

What's the front horizontal bar on the tractors used for?

[@AerialAg]

Down here in Louisiana they harvest cane rain or shine. So sometimes it can get extremely muddy. The front bars are used to push tractors out of the field.

[@vicid16]

unfortunately in Mexico the lands of most of the country are stony or with volcanic tepetate And it makes little possible the use of machinery for the harvest of sugar cane. Labor is required in cutting, spraying, and loading the product onto trucks.

It's rolling along. A lot of the cane is down but the harvesters are picking it up. I shot video yesterday harvesting not far from Lafayette. Should be up in 2-3 weeks. Be on the lookout!

Is sugarcane an annual or perennial ? How cuts per year

[@AerialAg]

Planted cane will regenerate each year. Usually the quality and tonnage can drop after a few years. Its typical to plow under and replant after 3-4 years.

[@rosielangelosilva4000]

Show very good!

[@jmuzik3214]

do they burn the fields too or not? im from florida they burn the fields here and sometimes green cane

[@AerialAg]

Plenty farmers here burn the trash off after harvesting the cane. Some use other tools to remove the shucks off the rows. They do burn the standing cane some places in Louisiana, but most is cut green.

[@jmuzik3214]

@@AerialAg thanks here in florida they burn fields before harvest and when they cant get a permit they cut it green im a harvester operator
