3,000 Acre Corn Field Harvested by CASE IH 9250 Combines

In this video Big Tractor Power spends time out in a 3,000 acre corn field with two 550 hp 410 bu CASE IH 9250 Axial-Flow Combines equipped with 4416 16 row corn heads. Watch these new class 9 combines clear off 40 ft of corn per pass while unloading on the go at 4.5 bushels per second with 620 and 580 hp CASE IH Quadtrac Tractors and KINZE 1100 and 1050 Grain Carts. This video takes viewers for a ride in the combines' and tractors cab.

[@jerehummelgaard5319]

Our “big” combine was a 76 model model IH 815 diesel with a 6 row, 30” corn head. Support equipment was a 1965 model IH DCOF 405 road tractor with a 38’ Trailmobile grain trailer, a 1962 IH Loadstar 10 wheeler and a 400 by Grain O Vator auger wagon, pulled by either a 1256 or 1566 IH tractor. Average corn yields back then were 130 bpa. At times the combine would sit with a full tank, waiting for a truck to return from the elevator. We downsized in 1982. The row crop equipment was sold at auction in 1982. Dad finished out his working years doing custom fertilizer and custom haying work. I went to town, got a job working for an elevator and escalator manufacturer and spent the next 30 years working for that company. Dad passed in 2017. I never lost my passion for farming and red equipment. Thanks for this video!!

[@jerehummelgaard5319]

I should’ve mentioned mom was the real hero. She did a lot of running, keeping us well fed and fueled up and occasionally taking a loaded truck to the elevator!!

[@scottpykare801]

Quite a large field. Only two class 9's would take a while. Would like to see the grain handling setup for their farm Jason.

Bodie farm! Cool story behind them brothers. About a 5 star hotel that wouldn’t rent one of them a room. He went in the back talked to the manager and came back with the manager who said get him a room, he owns the ground we sit on.. ha! Cool to see! Thank you!

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍. I had heard that story as well. It’s a farm with an interesting history. I think Mr. Turner has done a few history talk on it.

[@microsoilenhancersinspirey5750]

@@bigtractorpowerhe has. They tell another story that one of the brothers went to town and bought the first scaffold wagon in Christian co. They were big tobacco farmers and he bought all 6 on the lot. Hooked one to his truck and when asked about getting the others said he didn’t care about them he just didn’t want anybody else to get one. Ha!

[@RedDeadSpearhead]

We run a Brent Avalanche 1086 Grain Cart on our farm in central New York, and it gets hilly. That being said, we pull it with one of our magnum 280s, it can be a struggle sometimes, but if you use your head and keep momentem up, it does the job we need it to, but it certainly requires you to think

[@Thewaywefarm]

We got to demo a 9250 with a 12 row this fall here in western New York, great combines! We were in a 14 acre field, what a difference in Western Kentucky!

In 1969 the 95 John Deere was a big combine. Dad traded for his in about 1979. It was a good combine.

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool combine. The 95 is one of my all time favorites. My neighbor had one when I was very young. His was a 95EB with a 3 row corn head and a 13 ft grain head with the flat wooden bat reel.

[@tf7274]

Anyone who sold 7 dollar corn($11 in Canada) bought newer equipment in 2022. The more acres you have the bigger the jackpot. The used market was very active.

[@andrewbeenken1989]

Dad and my oldest brother farm just over 1,000 acres. We run a John Deere 9770 with a 8 row 30 inch corn head and for beans we run a 35 ft draper. We have a Case IH 305 that we run on our kinze 1050 grain cart. We have 2 semis and 2 gravity wagons that haul to our farm.

Not everyone can afford to replace their equipment every couple of years, at least not at the ridiculous prices at the moment . The good thing about doing the maintenance yourself is that you not only learn how it works, you at least know that its been done properly dont worry about how long your videos are Andy ill watch em no matter how long they are great video Andy.

[@billwellman7380]

Wow, impressive! Long way from when we used to run an IH 715 with a four row head - we thought we were doing a heck of a job! Ha ha - great video!!

I am not sure if I can get that. The field is right next to Ft Campbell, KYs air field. There are many fields in that area that are a no fly zone for drones. I will have to find out about that. Google Earth would show it. It’s about 2 miles east of Layfayette, KY. There is a 1,000 field that film at right next to it.

That's a very impressive harvesting operation. Thanks for sharing it. And some nice night views as well. When the combine is unloading, how do it and the grain cart adjust their position to fill the length of the cart? If the cart tractor operator does it, how does he know when to do it?

The corn raised here is used for ethanol which has a by product of distillers grain to feed cows and chickens. A lot of this corn also ends up, going down in Tennessee to be used for Jack Daniels production.

[@cl9133]

Case Af11 will be with twin rotors tech, a New Holland painted in Red for the North America market. The af10 will stay a real Axial. After for the engine it's the cursor 16 from FPT Industrial and go to more than 1000 horsepower

If you have a yield of 300 bushels per acre, every acre fills the grain tank. My grandfathers truck held 300 bushels

[@kathyhathaway8823]

I know some farmers has the computer system on there tractor combine an also the ones in the grain cart tractor where they all are tied into each other. Where it lets the grain driver see the combines gauge’s so when the combine are getting closer to full it let’s the grain driver know to get there because it is getting close . Does your system work like that ??. Thanks

[@mrourcanada8964]

That’s pretty impressive 40 feet at a time

[@bradjenkins932]

Silver seeder.

[@bigtractorpower]

Gleaner makes the best combine on the market in my opinion. The 250 Axial-Flows are also very good. If you want to harvest good quality corn in a hurry, the 9250 with the 4416 head will get the job done well.

[@user-up6zo7ke3j]

[@davidhouser586]

Case is coming out with a new combine bigger than the 9250 565 bushel grain tank 675hp still has the single rotor but can take massive load.

[@bigtractorpower]

The 9260 was just introduced at AgriTechnica last week. It looks like we may see the new AF10 at the 2024 National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, KY. It is reported to be 775 hp and 567 bu. It will be exciting to see.

[@themunter4488]

Well they need to compete against the X9 from Deere and the latest CR11 from NH. Makes sense as those are really big capacity machines.

[@user-up6zo7ke3j]

also how can they keep up with it producing so much grain?

[@404nitro]

Wow, 3000 acres is even bigger than the 2800 acre field on the farm Billy runs. Those Case combines are sharp and they sure do eat. What's this take to do with two combines? 10 days or so it sounds like. With that many acres in one place, I'm kinda surprised they aren't running some of those huge grain carts out now days. I know matching the grain carts to the truck capacity matters etc, but it seems it would save a trip or 6 to the trucks across the field.

[@matthewtaliaferro]

It doesn’t take 10 days

[@matthewtaliaferro]

You need to rethink your math

[@mattsimon7309]

They said they run 30 acres per hour (15 acres per combine), for 10 hrs per day. Sounds like about 10 days to me.
