CASE IH 2388 Axial-Flow Combine Harvesting Soybeans

[@ChrisL-ni9tb]

One of the most balanced harvesters CaseIH ever made. Appreciate the farmers dynamic of dedicated harvesters for corn/beans. That's the flexibility of cheaper, older, and quality màchinery.

[@jllr95]

Best looking combines ever built imo

[@mikesmith4644]

Love these cab rides. It's interesting for us non-farmers to hear farmers like this reflect on the evolution of their family farm's equipment over the years. Thanks!

[@markreetz1001]

Great video Jason. I really enjoy it when the driver engages in the interview like this one. I understand some are shy around the camera, or are busy driving. It is certainly great for them to let you ride along, regardless of their interview prowess. It also goes to show not everyone ones has a new combines and doing just fine!

[@bigtractorpower]

I enjoy the ride alongs. The farmer can tell us about it better than I can from sales brochures.

[@JoshuaSmith-xw6jp]

First self propelled combine I ever ran was a IH 205 Dad bought with a 13' grain head. Great video Jason. The farmer really helps make the video for sure. Just adds something to it I feel. These are my favorite when you interview the farmer. Thank you!

[@jackiejordan427]

Great video Jason, Farmer act like he was really glad you stopped by, my dad has always liked a slower combine operator like this, he says when they operate slower it keeps the reel from shattering the beans, hope Garnett farms didn’t get much damage from the storms, lord bless everyone that did, thanks for the video!!!

[@derekschmucker1609]

I see a few people being a bit critical of using a seemingly oversized head for this combine. I would just like to point out that the slower you drive, the less beans will be shattered at the header, which means more beans in the hopper and ultimately marketable beans, as well as less wear and tear on the header saving on maintenance costs. The other thing to consider is that rotary combines are best at threshing the crop when the rotor is loaded to capacity, meaning less crop loss out the back of the combine. On the farm that I work for we have a 40 ft head on our class 7 John Deere and a 45 ft on our class 8. You might say that the headers are a size too big for the combines, but consider that our combines can now operate at a slower ground speed and accomplish the same (or more) acres per hour. In a poor crop we can still keep our combines running at capacity, while in excellent crop we simply reduce ground speed. It’s a win-win.

[@404nitro]

That's pretty cool that they have had that one farm in the family that long. Thanks to the farmer for having you out to film there.I noticed he has some over sized back tires on his 2388, which I assume was to help with flotation on his particular properties.

[@ScottPykare]

Thanks Jason 👍. I always enjoy hearing the farmers perspective and history. 😁👌

[@bigtractorpower]

😁👍👍

[@joshuahellriegel3354]

I wonder if the people commenting on the 35’ Draper being too big for that machine have ever run one. Running slower in beans helps with shatter loss, and they feed so much more consistently that the combine actually runs smoother and at capacity like it was designed to do.

[@wyattdooley9711]

We have a 30 on ours and in clean dry beans it will do 3.5 or so without losing too much. Reel speed makes a big difference with the header loss too

[@JillKevinKoepsel]

I wonder how much weight was added to the rear to keep the combine from doing a nose dive. It must have the optional 3 lift cylinders. Out by me a large head like that wouldn't work..to many hills

[@guydaubenspeck9206]

Another great video Jason! Good to see that pretty red paint I come from a multi-generational red paint family and we run everything here from a 1941 bn to a 2017 75c Case IH those red tractors have been good to us I do have to say I run a gleaner combine mainly because I wanted to conventional Shaker machine in order to preserve the straw thanks anyway and if I don't get to talk to you again before the holidays have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and we'll be watching for more videos!

[@michaelhelmick8225]

Jason , Hope you got through the bad weather in western Kentucky ok. Blessings to all in that area.

[@bigtractorpower]

Thank you. It is very very bad. The town I live in was a near miss by two tornados. Every town around me was a direct hit and just wrecked. Prayers are needed.

Auger wagon… I’ve never heard it called that before but that’s the most accurate description I’ve heard! So your name is Jason. Nice to finally know that

[@glenncerny8403]

Jason, Great video! Did you get hit by all of the recent bad weather? How did the Garnett Farms fare during the bad weather? 🙏🏼ing for everyone in the hard hit states.

[@OEMPARTS_UFA]

Отличный комбайн 👍

[@sharpshooter7127]

Put many hours on a 2388. They were some great combines we mainly pulled corn and cut wheat. We did cut some soybeans whenever the deer didn't wreck our crops.

[@chrisdobel984]

We currently run a 2388, but Dad is looking at a 7130 tomorrow. We've run a 615, 815, 1440 (still use it for oats) and a 1460 in the past.

[@robwar2288]

Wow! Awesome story! Can’t imagine going from the 403 to the 1460!! That would of been something to see!!! 8930 is Sharp!!!!!

I run a 1460 ih with a 20ft 1020 head for beans and also have a 6 row 1063 corn head. The 1460 is a model year 1983, it has updated cage to a 1660 model.

[@clintonstubbs2319]

We run an IH 1420 axial flow with 15' 1020 header for soybeans and wheat and 845 head in corn. We like the machine.

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool. I got to feature a 1420 last year. I hope to locate a 1620 to film.

I love seeing the american flag on the combine. We had the other red Combine back when i was a kid. it was a Massey Furguson 410 with a cab an a 6 cylinder gas engine. Dad bought from a Former Farmer Neighbor few miles down the road for 150.00 dollars. Neeed some bugs worked out. an got it running decent.

[@BrooksFarms_est1950]

We farmed from 1952 to sometime in the 80s we farmed cotton and soybeans we never owned a combine somebody custom cut for us cotton we did by hand but we farmed with mules until we bought a brand new 1962 Farmall 404 then a few years later we bought another 404 with a picker on top and used it for one year the head cracked and we sold it for scrap we have thought seriously about going back into farming one day but for now a garden food plots and a bird field is enough

[@JamesTyreeII]

I like how slow he’s going and I like the bigger rear wheels and tires on the combine

[@albertwipf3587]

Yes on our farm up here in Montana my grandparents had the exact same combines this farmer had. Although we do mostly cereals and some peas.

[@bigtractorpower]

Very cool.

[@petertwohill]

Love your content mate I used to run a 1460 with a 1010 22.5ft front just sold the combine for a 2004 2388 similar to this setup unreal headers. Was sad to sell the 1460 but won't mind the cab comforts of a 23 series.

[@69druth]

We had a 91,715 and now a 1440 with a 1020 for spring grains wheat and soys. Have not ventured into grain corn yet.

It was neat to see a late model 2388.

[@raywilson800]

Combines are a "modern marvel" to me. The technology was years ahead of its time. The timing and synchronization of all the mechanism is just as if not more complex than any old brain box.......and much more reliable at a fraction of the cost. You know what they say about opinions ....but that's mine and it ain't likely to change. I'm sure you don't want to know why but I'll tell you anyway what has led me to this point in my life. The more "Hi tech" everything gets the more people turn into a bunch of candy asses that won't work and all they do is complain. I drove tough operating mechanical cars, pick-ups and big trucks for 50 years and did most of my own repairs. You can't do that with the stuff they're building today. They build it where you have to have a college degree to dig a ditch. There's always going to physically hard jobs to do and who's going to do them when everybodies a candy ass?

It feeds better going slow in soybeans so if you’re going so slow it’s better to have a bigger header and you couldn’t get a draper back then so this newer bigger draper is better
