CORN HARVESTING IN HIGH MOISTURE

MERCHANDISE- www.triplerfarmsal.com
THANKS FOR WATCHING

[@glennrhinehart3186]

Slow your corn head way down,should help on head lose. With the corn stalks still being green and elbowed it’s gonna be challenging for sure. As far as the concave haven’t seen them plug like that except when trying to shell with we had a shower. I’m sure a few more days of good drying days will make a big difference. Kernel looks very good,congrats on a good harvest. Be safe. 😎

[@davidclark-vh8tg]

Daniel, your videos are always so well produced. Nice effort on your part. Let that corn go a couple more weeks. Those leaves are too tough to break down and are plugging the concaves. The loss and dryer costs aren't worth the early harvest .

[@robtaylor6806]

Couple hours/days not weeks.

[@deangelojeremitriusvickers6319]

Couple of weeks? Not down here😂

[@brendanmurphy1265]

When my combine does that in tougher conditions, I close up my concave more and put more rub pressure on the them to keep them wiped clean. Seems to work decent for for us, good luck

[@donhuber9674]

Run the concave tighter and faster.

[@donbarnes435]

I would wait a week. Stalks are very green.

[@user-vl7mb5gw4q]

Tighten down the concave a little at a time to push the leaves out. If that doesn’t work then speed up the rotor and that should work for you.

[@petegraham1458]

Good decisions are not always what you want to do but I think you made the right one to stop the loss of corn . I hope you get good drying weather to solve the problem.

[@corerlt]

Why combine on Aug 1 ???? why not wait?

[@farmboy2848]

Dont worry about the Monday morning Corn pickers .. get it like you know how.. happy for your good crop. Rain is awesome

[@harbourshope5450]

I love your videos. Takes me back to my farm days growing up. Thank you.

[@scottlee1211]

Daniel you love to do the Alabama stomp and swat!! 😂🤣 YOU’RE the dancer in the family!!

[@patrickreilly7894]

Hi Daniel. Good too see your at corn harvest, keep safe with all that machinery. I'm going across the pond in mid September too New York I'm going down south, too South Carolina I've got friends down their, if it's ok with you I'll stop by too see you and granny, from a cross the pond in Great Britain.Keep safe

[@robertbanik7879]

On a new holland I believe there is a special concave for wet corn. It's like a round bar but they are welded in on an angle

[@woodyhinson6527]

I’ve cut some 22% moisture corn before but I have never cut corn with the stalk that green! Happy Harvest!!! Best of luck!!!

[@-Wiegmann]

You will have to close down your concave clearance in those tough conditions to keep the modules from plugging up.

[@jimholty2274]

I agree and keep the rotor full so pushes the leaves out. We do high moisture corn 32-34% and you should be able to run 3000-3500 bu hour easily. We have an 8240.

[@ThornAndel]

Boy them bugs love you Daniel. Hey hey howde Granny ! 😄

[@jimmystrain883]

Good morning Granny, Dan, Daniel and all of Triple R Farms hope yall have a blessed day

[@joshclark8700]

Try opening up your rotor cage slightly, may have to run all round bar grates. Depending on what rasp bars you got on your rotor will affect it too.

[@larrycaughron1321]

I agree with David Clark. The leaves are too wet, take a long iced tea break.

[@Dmass-se1uy]

The corn looks like you had some bad winds and is gooseneck I see why you want to get it out of the field before it goes down

[@jjonathanhamby8549]

You should look in to getting the Midland that mount in the combine or tractor then they will be there year to year

[@glenshepard6960]

Good evening, Granny. Have a great weekend

[@MrPas111]

We had the same problem last harvest, speeding up your rotor and close the concaves. Grettings from Argentina.

[@paulrivera6920]

Thanks for taking time to explain (IN ENGLISH) the header on the combine most guys just talk like we are all farmers,….. BTW looks like you might be a couple weeks early on corn harvest but there again iʻm not a farmer!

[@clintstegall1069]

It’s amazing as adults how we all want to jump in and get ur done, here’s some food for thought, my grandma used to tell us that “ good things happen to those who wait “ man I used to hate to hear that, but you know what, it’s true 99% of the decisions I have encountered. Y’all have plenty to do, keep an eye on it, you will know, the good lord will lay that feeling on your soul. Beautiful corn, you, Pops, and the fellas have done well.

[@jerrybarlar9768]

Afternoon Granny! I had a left knee replacement last Wednesday. I'm a little slow watching Daniel 's videos this week. I promise I'll do better. Good video! Good to see Dad is getting off for a few days.

[@YouTubeFunHandle]

In Michigan, the corn is not harvested until the stalks are bone dry.

[@jjonathanhamby8549]

I'm not a farmer but would love to work on a big farm like yours but like you said needs more time to dry down to me

[@user-iv9sy1og8e]

I have a Pipeliner cloud it is a very good umbrella.

[@randycharest4507]

Enjoyed watching the video Daniel

[@t_r_b8842]

We didn’t have good luck with the midland handhelds either. Went and got 5 micro mobile farm bundles and they work great. Good range, about 4-5 miles. Go ahead and hit up midland, seems like all the farmtubers are sponsored by them lol

[@jamesgarrett8234]

I’m no genius but I definitely agree it needs to dry more before trying to harvest the corn. That dryer can’t be cheap to operate. Plus what corn is going on ground out the back of combine. But keep the videos coming!

[@burtzorn4059]

Have a great weekend Granny Take care and stay cool !!!!

[@jerrydeaver5335]

Corn is yielding good. It will get better everyday enjoy your weekend. How’s Granny doing. Love all the videos.

[@allenwalters9068]

Rotor around 450 480 concave tighten it down. I had some laat year was down on 22 usually run 25 26. I almost put round bars in the seperating part but your hacing problems up front. Before it gets to the back. Are you running spike bars? Any flat bars i know their more on the rear. When i ran gerringhoof i usually ran around 670 680 8 row 7230s amd 7250 that might help some. Would toss some ears some more

[@mattphillips4260]

can you slow the header speed down to help with header loss with the deck plates at wider setting maybe

[@chrisanderson6837]

Wow. We’ve had very seldom have corn that dry but frost kills our stalk. Interesting the different problems you have depending on the area

[@osi2484]

By far the best farming channel on u/t.................

[@user-oq7fj4ri2g]

Great video!! Thanks for keeping us us up to I like you stay up to date hate to stay a month behind. How did Thomas’ s team come out in our great state of Ms.

[@brandonthomas-xg4no]

Hello Daniel just a thought on the walkie talkie you can plug them in the 12volt in your truck to charge them and the truck doesn’t have to be running. One thing I like about GM

[@normobannon2750]

Why do you harvest high moisture corn?

[@matthewprice1227]

Close your concaves a little more and speed your rotor up a little. As long as your not getting any kernel grinding you should be in good shape .

[@thomasanderson1783]

I think that corn needs more time. I know very little about south farming. I understand it’s different as you have other crops to harvest at different times. Just seems like 1 more week might help if no rain.

[@gregjames5070]

I always love when someone says they don’t know anything about farming but want to tell farmers what to do. 😂😂🤡

[@deangelojeremitriusvickers6319]

Gonna be about two more weeks now before we can combine because of the rain here in Bama. Got more coming too with storms😬 never fails, once the combine fires up the rain comes!

[@woodyhinson6527]

I like to keep the deck plates as close as I can but if they are to close they will pull the corn up by the roots!!!

[@rodneyrote6261]

Why not let the corn dry more gotta be expensive running that dryer

[@hulmestanner]

Always a push and pull. Spending some dollars to get a crop in early. If you let it dry down too much it will butt shell and you’ll loose a lot of corn

[@deangelojeremitriusvickers6319]

More rain and storms on the way, we’re going to have to pick with high moisture this year

[@joeldurheim5831]

It’s not very expensive for a farmer to dry his own corn. Only expensive if you have it dried at the elevator.

[@hulmestanner]

@@joeldurheim5831 yep! Every once in a while our local elevator will throw out penny a point drying so we take as much in as we can

[@cute_animalsanddrawingvideos]

High moisture corn better for cows

[@owensanford482]

Looks like a great dove shoot for Autaugaville!

[@landonandrews3013]

[@terryhobdy5727]

Enjoyed the video Daniel.

[@jeannankeefe845]

Where is the new video? I need to see corn harvesting.

[@kennethrunyan3168]

Drago corn heads run less trash thru the combine. I would think those concaves need either opened or closed. Those newer combines that self adjust our different than our old 2388 combine.

[@dalemccary6526]

Let it dry in the field. More yield, less propane cost.

[@gregrhodes8451]

Enjoyed the video Daniel. Corn looks great.

[@EtterChris]

Daniel, First guy on youtube hitting corn. Enjoy all the views. Keep up the good work.

[@stevenleahy5941]

With the heat of AL summer coming on strong…and the added cost of propane…why not wait for Mother Nature to dry your corn…and stalks…intend of drying and trying to dial in your sieves to minimize rotor loss.

[@deangelojeremitriusvickers6319]

But it’s also summer, there’s a chance of rain any day here this time of year. There’s a 30% chance (or higher) 9 out of the next 10 days here in Bama.

[@MarshallLanier-oi1mk]

Weather, deer, hogs, coons....hurricanes. It's always a good idea to get your crop in as soon as possible. But.....I will say it's probably a good idea to give that corn another week to week and a half.

[@gregstone1306]

What is the cultural practice difference in harvesting corn at that moisture content. Here the stocks are quite dry before we start.

[@deangelojeremitriusvickers6319]

We never try to cut that wet but that depends on what is happening too. This early in the game we shoot for about 18-20

[@staceygay6400]

Gonna be in your area in about 10 days would love to come meet all you boys

[@tomgreen1721]

[@warrenhuntley6110]

Another good video Was wondering why you don't use grain bins

[@raymondlivingston4217]

why do you combine corn when the moisture is so high

[@MarshallLanier-oi1mk]

I noticed what looks to be a 6R or 6000R series tractor with a front end loader. Is this something new?

[@chrisbubba6000]

Pull every other wire out what I've had to do in high moisture corn

[@stevenblue3126]

My experience says you have to stop all the trash going in the combine. Should just be getting ears going in the combine. More of a problem with corn head than the combine . Drier corn would be a big help.

[@stakman78]

Hey bud. Awesome video. Tell me do your walkie talkies turn to crap or just the batteries. I've found the batteries straight from the factory in China online. Cheap as chips, literally. And yes I think let that plant die off some. I know the waiting game when your plant sucks up all that ground moisture and the cob is ready. I feel your excitement for combining or chopping. That stuff would be running out the spout of the chopper/forage harvester let alone a combine. Thanks for sharing. Farm hard.

[@randywilson9611]

Good video good to see y'all

[@brokenarrow2835]

Why don't y'all let the corn dry more in the field?

[@drewjones66]

We harvest 25-28% corn in New Zealand, yet don't have the blockage issues you are experiencing. What is your concave setting?( we ran around 32) Rotor speed mid 500s Fan near flat out Round bar all round Good luck

[@corerlt]

Why not wait until the corn is under 20% moisture?

[@jimbob8969]

@@corerltHigh moisture corn for Dairy cows.

[@corerlt]

@@jimbob8969 then why go to all the expense of drying the corn? I don't see a Harvestore or any dariy cows in this video.

[@jimbob8969]

@@corerlt I was referring to the post above from New Zealand. Triple R is trying to take advantage of good prices right now, those prices will decline the further into harvest we go.

[@jocalafarms4051]

Your about 2 weeks early. Great looking ears though

[@bobbysears6626]

I’m kinda wondering why y’all don’t let it dry out a little more? Because here in South Georgia it’s 104 heat index and we’ll be looking for the invitation to the Dove 🕊️ shoot!! Thanks for sharing!!

Good looking corn Daniel. Hello Granny

[@marshallherron8977]

Yea to green wait 3 weeks.

[@mailman4789]

Love the videos! Why bring the mig to the field instead of using the stick? Figured the wind would blow that shielding gas all around

[@deangelojeremitriusvickers6319]

What wind?😂 Bama is not generally a windy state

[@davidrieder90]

Dud. You're combining green corn. You need to wait. 15 decree.

[@buckeyefarmboy107]

I have heard case combines having trouble in high moisture corn, i run a claas combine in corn.

[@RichardThompson-gc1cf]

To early week or two will make all the diff. Let the sun cook it down (moister)

Great yielding corn to start. Hope it continues. How did Thomas’ Team do in Hattiesburg?

Best smell in the world, corn dryer first thing in the morning.

What’s the rush,, why can’t you let it dry down more,,????

[@chrislogan5254]

Good looking corn by the way

[@PughFarms]

Looked like a lot of the plugging was the husks have had that problem wit husks on the ear to damp.

[@harveystephens6115]

Been smarter if you had have killed combine before changing concaves

[@thomasanderson1783]

That might be 300 bushel corn if conditions are right!

[@pioneerfarm4369]

LOL there's only two comments that are close to being right for high moisture ear corn harvest I learned how from an old timer every combine is different max out your fan speed first then open your concaves all most max setting an close your header up the corn stalk can be green from top to bottom it doesn't matter set your RPM at max then fine tune your settings you will find the sweet spot for your combine just remember it will rumble a lot which is normal just saying.👍

[@johnsmith-xr6qy]

I couldn't figure out how you were combining corn in April. Is your farm in Autauga or Lowndes County? It's been near 40 years since I farmed but if the moisture in the corn is high, moisture in the stalk is also high. Hot sun, less rain and time should help.

[@tommathews3964]

They have ground in Autauga, Lowndes, and Dallas counties.
