ScanStone Destoner - Stone Harvesting

[@rodneyhendrix1292]

Looking like this years crop, was extra productive for the rain we had this year!!

[@miman-ck9jv]

Looks like a good crop of stones this year

[@CT_Yankee]

Kinda like farming in most of New England.

[@rquance1]

Where I live in NY state we have lots of stones in the field and it would be handy to use this picker and then sell the harvested stones to a Gravel Company that has a crusher, for profit or at least to help defray the cost of using the Harvester.

[@rajbeekie7124]

That is crazy. I didn't know rocks grew like potatoes. Amazing stuff.

[@wurmfutter8974]

Scots were tired of replanting taters every season, so they opted for something sturdier!

[@symonsheppard5519]

Impressive machine and a great idea, so much easier for harvesting potatoes once this has been done providing this is clearing the stones down to plough depth. There is also an added bonus if collectable stones such as agates are found in the same area.

[@oby-1607]

Wow, look at the insane potato harvest. Real good crop this year.

[@exilfromsanity]

The quietest rock picker ever>

[@bigDH123]

Ive seen rock in a field before, but never like that. That is insane.

[@GetMeThere1]

Awesome machinery! Thanks for posting.

[@DCM8828]

Around Edmonton AB gravel is becoming more and more valuable because trucks are having to go out a hundred miles or so to get it. Crushed concrete rubble is now also becoming valuable as gravel in its own right.

[@ShannonFreng]

Hi, from a fellow Edmontonian.

[@timcotter8879]

Very impressive equipment. Stone picker is brilliant.

[@simonvanwiechen3628]

so many rocks it looks like you picking potatoes

[@watchthe1369]

given how much volume you are loosing, mI am mildly surprised you didn't try a rock crusher. You got some great stuff to line any creek or river with to prevent erosion heck if it stack high enough you might have a wind break and maybe catch yourself some dirt......

[@StephenKelly-ey6ne]

Excellent bit of design.

How often do you destined a field? More stones will work their way up eventually. 5years? 10 years? Next glacier?😁 Winter frost pushes up some field Stone in my area, a few, you see a pile in front of most fields.

[@michaelbarry7103]

Should have some cribbing on the side of the trailer to stop the stones from rolling off the trailer when it’s nearly full

[@austrorus]

they still need work for next year...

[@ATOM09]

Amazing! How much land is that? Do you make one pass or a few to get all the stones?

[@abdoubouazzaoui3626]

Good job

[@hemnsoran568]

Very very good , amazing .👍👍👍

[@0501245]

Love it! It my dream to get one for a farm in Africa.

[@barbwellman6686]

Great machine & then the rock can be used on farm roads!

[@samfrancisco8095]

The more people you try to cultivate, the more clods you turn up.

[@ajones8699]

Good clean spoil.

[@raincoast2396]

Looks like more dirt clods than stones and rocks.

[@josephastier7421]

How long does it take the rocks to grow that large?

[@tomoneal3165]

So why wouldn't you show the frontend in operation? ie how it initially picks-up the dirt & rocks, how deep it goes, etc. You spent time showing the underneath on the back end, so why not the same shots on the front end?

[@おとはまちゃん]

A machine that crushes this stone is out on you tube

[@AnsirSaghirKhanCSSPMSMentor]

Info says this is in Angus Scotland

[@stephenross1581]

Elevator needs slowing down

[@johnmoore8016]

Do they go back over the fields with any other machines to remove more of the stones? First time to see rock harvesting

[@jeffjefferson3364]

This machine will get practically all the stones you'd ever be able to pick up. The gaps in the elevators are very small to let fine soil through but not stones of more than 1.5 or 2 inches through. The soil is rotovated and ridged first to work up the stones from a few inches deep in the soil and to make the soil fine enough to pass through the elevators.

[@rickymurphy9173]

Precious piece of equipment but I noticed it was still a whole lot of rocks in behind it on the ground and many times do you have to go across it to get all the Rocks up because he's a whole lot of Little Rock's laying behind it but it does pick up a whole lot of rocks like to know

[@samkom33]

hehe yes but it helps removing 95% of the stones, you never get all.. and NEW STONES rise to the surface every year, specially if you have several periodes every winter where the ground freezes 1 week . then rain 1 week and then freeze and so on.. When the wet dirt freeze,, the rocks in the dirt get pusd up, becouse water turning to ice EXPAND, pushing the stone up.. but most times when it gets varmer and the dirt get varmer again,some dirt-sand fall under the rock, stopping it to fall back as deep it was before,, so every freezing period stones SEAM TO GROW UP IN THE FIELD.. I HAVE SEEN IT PERSONALLY IN NORWAY BY THE COAST. where we had to plow and remove new stones every 5 years. ore so

[@No-hf1xq]

Wow now they are factory farming pet rocks too. The animal industry is truly disgusting, just look at poor pet rocks being thrown around like a piece of pebble.

@scanstone do u ship your machines to India or is there someone else that I can contact here please let me know

Please send your equirement on [e-mail] We are from India.

[@chrisfryer3118]

just the job for farm tracks i'd expect

[@TWOCOWS1]

de-stoning a land allows it to become an ideal farmland. potatoes for example. otherwise, the mechanical pickers will confuse the stones with potatoes and you end up with them in the processors instead of the potato. quite dangerous in fact

[@ShannonFreng]

Well why would they be stupid enough to run a rock picker, when the potatoes are ready for harvesting? Your comment lacks any coherence.

[@TWOCOWS1]

@@ShannonFreng Sweetypie, it is de-stoning the land before planting things, NOT de-stoning it at harvest. Dah!

[@ShannonFreng]

@@TWOCOWS1 Really? Ah, well no shit! Perhaps you might consider improving your writing literacy, as it could easily be inferred that you're implying they'd be stupid enough to run a harvester, when there's that many stones. But then you sound the type who likely goes to AA meetings (or the like), as well, so I'm not surprised--your diction rather matches that crowd's. Oh, and by the by, don't use that epithet, to address me.

[@austrorus]

what are they doing with the STONE>S afterward? to the rock crusher, concrete factory?

[@samkom33]

in norway there usually is a road construction prosjekt nearby that needs stone.. ore they need stone for foundation for a building most of the bigger contractors in norway have a mobile rock crusher that love small rocks. hehe kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqLMi4aApadpo9U

[@Axgoodofdunemaul]

Very interesting. Thanks.

[@farmcentralohio]

most places that place would be called a gravel quarry. but here, i guess not

[@josefmann551]

Great Video :)

[@marcusgault9909]

Just because you can, does not mean you should, i.e. anyone considered what this is doing to the soil structure in the longer term?

[@buckhorncortez]

Why don't you tell us? If you want to EAT FOOD it has to be grown. NEWS FLASH - food doesn't simply magically appear in the grocery store. Let me take a wild guess - they're making the soil better for growing potatoes or they wouldn't be picking the rocks. See, here's the problem. To get the best potato yield you grow them in mounds. Every so often during the growing season, you take a machine made to groom the mounds, and pile a little more dirt up so the roots will make more tubers (those are the potatoes). At the end of the growing season, you wait for the plants to be wilted by frost. Then you run a machine, that works much like the rock picker, down the mound row and separate the potatoes from the soil. If you have rocks in the soil the same size as the potato, then you'd be harvesting rocks AND potatoes. The rocks would bruise the crop in handling, and at some point you'd have to separate the potatoes from the stones. So, they're preparing the ground to remove the stones so they aren't harvesting rocks at the end of the growing season. Now - your idea...is...?

[@marcusgault9909]

My questions still stands, unanswered, current farming is simply murdering soils, with cheap HP, all for to produce too-cheap, or undervalued food, a not insignificent proportion of which is then dumped by the consumer, because hey! food is cheap. And yes, a North Irish(the home of Harry Ferguson) farmers son does know how potatoes are grown.

[@he5890]

@@buckhorncortez Have you ever heard of the dust bowl in the western plains of the U.S.? you are showing your status qou bias and ignorance due to outdated standard farming practices. Sounds like Someone needs to read up on soil health, maybe take a few sustainable agriculture classes or work shops, and learn how it interacts with plants on a molecular level and how conventional methods destroy much of the micro fauna and beneficial bacteria and fungi that actually HELPS your crop be more productive because it creates healthier soil. standard methods deplete nutrients and minerals when the soil is disturbed to this level, kills earthworms (which are the best thing you can have in a field/soil) and exposes heat, wind, and rain that all create erosion of top soil organic matter and often leaches nutrients and minerals too deep for the plant to reach. instead, yeah lets keep doing what we're doing, we can always fix it with chemicals and synthetic fertilizers. Its poor management and practice and you're clinging to it like its a 1200 caret diamond for, in this case, one of the most useless crops grown in terms of nutrient value and health for people. I'm not opposed to using the machine to clear the field once or twice a year to get many of the rocks out as possible, but all before anything is actually planted and not in the same year. I think a year gap with a nitrogen producing cover crop that gets turned in or no till drilled through after mowing or threshing, then plant something of some value besides potatoes, and i don't mean just market value. there are hundreds of other crops that could be planted that would create a better yield and outcome. Your suppose to be farming the SOIL not what you put in the field because those crops WILL flourish and produce if you care for the soil health.

[@59nang]

Ok so who's to say they're not crushing this stone & putting in back in to the field?

[@stevebuchanan4829]

It improves the quality of the soil, thus the variety of crops that can be grown on this soil is expanded. When a cover crop is planted on this field, it can be plowed back into the soils more easily making the soil more fertile.

[@Mr.Saephan503]

Imagine if they had it spread fertilizer at the same time when digging up the rocks 🤔

[@buckhorncortez]

To make a bigger rock crop the next year?

[@Mr.Saephan503]

Buckhorn Cortez - no not to have a bigger rock crop next year. I know thing must be hard for a KID so I'll help you out. If they're cleaning up rocks then they must want to plant some crops. If they want to plant some crops then they might want to fertilize the land after they removed the rocks. So instead of removing the Rock and then coming back to fertilize,they can just have a machine do it all while they remove the rocks. LMFAO like I said I know thinking hpVERY HARD for you so I did it for you KID.

[@Mr.Saephan503]

Buckhorn Cortez - just to let you know....they're growing potatoes on that land if you can read the machines and the info in the description box

[@gary24752]

So what made all the furrows ?

[@Scanstone1]

+gary24752 The furrows are made by the bed maker, this is a separate pass done with usually another tractor, as seen in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmO0lmZ5mLaDe6c

Are they sown or planted ?

How much is this machine?

Looks like the driver could pick up a gear or two. The tractor is going so slow and the side conveyor is going 90 miles an hour. I sure hope he doesn't run the potato harvester the same way.
