This year, I ran a John Deere 8120 (tinted windows) and used it to pull an A&L F705 (700 bushel) grain cart to empty the grain tanks off of a John Deere 9660 STS 200 bushel combine, a John Deere 9660 STS Bullet Rotor 250 bushel combine, and a John Deere 9760 STS 300 bushel combine. No, I can't pick up all 3 combines if their grain tanks are full. We used all this equipment to tackle a little over 2000 acres of wheat.

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool. That many combines will keep the grain cart on the move non stop.

[@JacobDoffing42]

Oh yes, indeed it did.

[@khoperator478]

Wonderful activities

This is Awesome. Love to see Challenger Track tractors & Lexion Combine.

The farm in this video has an MT855 and three MT855Bs. Solid tractors.

Awesome equipment Jason... Thx bud.. gotta get you to the farm in northern KY when I'm planting with the 784 international... I've kept it in great shape...

[@bigtractorpower]

I like 784s. Great tractors.

[@scottpykare801]

I do really like Agco equipment especially the Challenger two track series. This farm obviously grows a large amount of winter wheat to have 3 combines out there. Thank you Jason for getting those shots and getting pelted with all that chaff!! 👍🏻👌🏻

[@bigtractorpower]

In WKY they want to combine the wheat as fast as possible because they plant a second crop of soybeans right behind the combines. I eat allot of dust through out the year. Rarely do the sun and wind match up.

[@bigtractorpower]

Thank you for watching. Are the small grains in your area planted in the fall or spring? Wheat is planted here in Kentucky in October and harvested in June so that a second crop of soybeans can be planted behind on the same ground.

[@Bald_Cat2007]

What year is the combine?

[@jascollinscork]

Great video nice equipment but why oh why do Class combines need to be in Cat colours???

[@bigtractorpower]

CAT contracted with CLAAS in 1998 to provide the company with combines. In 2001 when CAT sold Challenger to AGCO, CLAAS combines we’re only sold at CAT dealers so they opted to continue to paint them yellow in North America. In 2019 the yellow paint was retired and new Lexions are sold in CLAAS green and white.

[@davepayne9162]

planted in the fall over here,

[@bigtractorpower]

👍👍

Ok

[@MeadowFarmer]

I find it interesting that farmers often have a header from a different manufacturer than the combine. The CLAAS combine had a MacDon header. I imagine there must be a performance or price advantage to that.

[@bigtractorpower]

MacDon is the industry leader in Draper Head sales. Almost every brand of combine in this region run MacDon. They do a good job in cutting and gathering the crop.

[@wilsondeandrade4845]

✌️✌️✌️

[@bigtractorpower]

Thank you Wilson.

[@Cursethedawn]

I'm curious about the Claas Lexion colors. I usually see them in the bright green, white, & red. Are the colors of the Lexion in this video an North American thing?

[@bigtractorpower]

CLAAS Lexion combines were sold in yellow paint in the United States from 1998-2019. In 1998 Caterpillar contracted with CLAAS to sell Lexion combines through its dealer network to offer a more complete farm machine line to go with Challenger tractors. CLAAS sold Challenger tractors in green and white in Europe starting on 1999. In 2001 Caterpillar decided to exit the farm equipment market and sold its tracked Challenger tractor line to AGCO. AGCO created the Challenger brand selling tracked tractors and taking Massey Ferguson wheeled tractors, Massey combines and Hesston hay tools and painting them yellow and selling them as Challengers through Caterpillar dealers. CLAAS dropped the Caterpillar name from the Lexion in 2002 and continued to sell yellow CLAAS combines through Caterpillar dealers. In 2019 CLAAS end the yellow paint program with the release of the 7000/8000 Lexion combines in the United States. I have a US 8600 video posted at kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3eWc5hnfr9ofrM In 2020 AGCO dropped the Challenger brand colors and name and the tracked tractors were reintroduced as Fendt MT900 and MT1100 tractors.

[@Cursethedawn]

@@bigtractorpower Wow, couldn't have asked for a better answer. Thanks for the information!

[@jarrettfullerton2580]

I don't know a ton about how things are done down there, but isn't it cut awfully high? I can't imagine the payments on a farm like this

[@bigtractorpower]

A second crop of soybeans is planted after the combines cut the wheat. They like talk stubble for the beans.

@@bigtractorpower makes sense..thought it might be hard on the tires, but that explains it!

they seem like their field could use a change of philosophy maybe direct till or no till coz those yields are very inconsistent

[@bigtractorpower]

The part of the field I rode in the combine cab is a low spot that hold water in the winter which reduced the wheats yield in that section. Typically we see 95 to 190 bu wheat on average.

[@fazeobama8872]

@@bigtractorpower right ok that does sound better than what i was able to catch haha

[@1thundrus]

You forgot that it’s a conventional combine first. The rotors are there for tough conditions to finish threshing what might be left in the straw

[@bigtractorpower]

The APS system is good on the CLAAS I simply mentioned the rotor length because I mentioned it on the IDEAL. I have a few videos here on the channel where I go more in-depth on APS.

[@2xKTfc]

It's still odd to me to have Claas machines not painted Claas-green. Especially now that they have less to do with Cat.

[@bigtractorpower]

Starting in model year 2019 CLAAS North America Lexion combines are produced in green and white.
