Hey Mike, you should get a smaller drill for one of the berts and go seeding with it next spring. I really want a video of you driving one for a day. I think it would be very entertaining.

Many questions!! First how many bushels do those hopper bottom bins hold ,2nd how do you decide which grain you're going to clean for seed , 3rd how come all the augers and conveyers instead of a central leg and dump pit and overhead loadout bins , 4th did you say it was one and a half hours one way to the terminal 5th do you use any of the grain out of the bags for seed or are you emptying any of those yet sorry so many but inquiring minds need to know !! Sorry weather has sucked , not bad here harvest progressing fast !! Never out grow a snowball fight !!
@mikemitchell25544 жыл бұрын
#1 around 5000bu, #2 we just start cleaning what we think we might be seeding according to our crop rotations. #3 our augers prb cost 25,000 maybe.. Haha vs legs a few hundred grand.. #4 the terminal is near 100miles away, and we try for 3 or 4 loads per truck a day!... #5 we are hauling the bags out to the terminals and yes we can use what's in the bags for seed too
