30:42 even though that s670 is a decade old, it's still an impressive looking machine. There are a lot of smaller farms that only dream of having a combine like that. And I think your spot on with the 500 hour mark telling you whether you're going to have a machine that lasts 20 years, or it's time to get rid of it. I guess that 500 hours on a tractor or combined is about equivalent to 20,000 mi on a car or truck. If they've been maintained well, I would think that any problems would show up by then. Obviously, if you've got farms that only keep a combine for a year or two and don't really do any maintenance, then it's a roll of the dice.

That’s a long trip for most…. I work for the largest custom farmer in my area. I’m their applicator running a 2023 John Deere 612R. We farm in 7 counties in PA, 2 counties in MD and 2 counties in VA. When it’s time to spray in VA, it takes me 5 hours to commute there in my JD. 35 mph the whole way. I take back roads , highways and interstates to get there. I get some pretty good looks/hand signals on Interstate 70 ( a 70 mph road )!! I just smile and wave!! Remember it’s guys like us that feed the world!!! Be safe out there! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Nice part of doing the winter wheat with beans is it spreads out the harvest and risk
@Melting_Fireman
@Melting_Fireman Ай бұрын
Brown Family Farms or Hartung can probably attest to that. Think they're about the only two farmtubers that I see doing double crop winter wheat after soybeans. I've never farmed that way in ND & here in Arizona it's multiple crops on a field. September they start growing winter lettuce and veggies and then they go to cotton or wheat but hay goes year round here in Southern parts of Arizona.
@EvanC8
@EvanC8 Ай бұрын
@@Melting_Fireman border view farms does it as well and they are pretty successful. You definitely need precipitation and or snow. Irrigation is even better to do this otherwise it’s not a great idea to do double cropping. We grow winter wheat but we don’t double crop cause we spread and work in multiple passes of manure. So there’s no time to seed anything after we are done. We love getting a lot of manure applied to our land.

I was taken a back for a moment seeing Marty wearing a hoodie that wasn’t red! I wasn’t sure it was him! It doesn’t matter how many hours Andy. They all have problems that can strike at any time. Lost an engine in our first baler cotton stripper with 300hrs. It was a known problem with water pump. Things happen! Trust me I know plenty about oil field shenanigans living I west Texas.I’ll tell you a little trick if you know you have a mud pit from an old oil well that’s salted the ground, or they didn’t operate the topsoil when trenching. Plant barley as a cover and let someone cut and bale it. Barley pulls salt out. Takes a couple of years but it works.

Andy, thanks for the great coverage of harvest. It's been enjoyable as heck to watch as you and your family get things done. If I take one thing out of this harvest overall(based on watching several Ag channels) it's this. If I owned a farm that was big enough for multiple machines, there's zero chance I'd be loyal to one brand. There's a huge operation down the road from me and that family runs every color out there. They've set records of the number of bushels harvested in a 24 period with one combine. I won't mention their name because I don't have permission to. I think the best plan (looking in from the outside) is to have a nice mix of equipment. Hopefully it all comes from good dealers with strong service as well. I've seen too many John Deere issues this harvest across the channels I watch. That's just me though, an old, retired grain and options trader who never owned a farm. LOL

I just don't understand how that giant piece of iron had gotten in the middle of your field. After how many years of tillage and other things? I just wonder if the jealous neighbor threw it in your field. Hope not... Glad you have ingestion insurance. Is that something they only offer on a new / In warranty combine? Once again, we thank you for being one of the most well spoken and detailed farm tubers out there. You explain everything with great detail and make it funny all the same.
