Just realise how long i have been followed you. Watching Ahao grow up, Dawang be fatten up and your baking skill level up over years has been one of my great joys.

How much is a Harvester like that?? Million?

[@MichiganFarmPhotos]

I believe brand new they are over a million correct. But before this machine you had to have a tractor and a beet topper and another tractor and a beet lifter and 2 operators. This machine is a one pass tool which says on equipment needed operator cost and fuel cost.

Brand new are around $900k. Not quite a million yet
