I work at a grain elevator in southern MN and everyone is bringing in loads with pods, green pods, and lima beans. They are testing at 8-12% though. Just this week some guys were bringing in 12-14% corn straight out of the fields.

[@jacoblandis4535]

Same here in N IL

[@stevecanfield9862]

😂 no pods in the tank the only combine that is that way is one that never seen a bean before

[@larsharris]

I unloaded corn at Glenwood. You should post a pic of the soybean bunker pile. I am guessing it will be over a half million bushels by time closed up. Likely well over. You can see the pods head toward outside.

[@bluegrallis]

I've been running a Red Massey combine for my neighbor and can say for certain, it's never had a pod in the tank. It's always had a corn head on it. 🤣

[@donalderickson-si8ww]

thank you for taking time out of your day too show what goes on on the daily life of a farm family a second cousion owned a 200 ackers farm and grew corn we had family gathering there and be fore we went home the kids would help carry the milk pails to the holding tank and that was fun know everyone is gone so it is fun to watch you take care of your farm and rember the old days.

Excellent video .. this was actually a good representation to show people theirs a lot to do before jumping in a machine every morning that we have to get done.. I also noticed that your crops are similar to ours in Alberta Canada where everything ripened differently this year with green patches here and there… luckily you don’t have seed trying to sprout on you like alot of other people are finding up here

Love your videos but I have to tell you we have a oliver 525 with a round hole sieve and a grain cleaner up top the clean grain and now we get .1 dockage with no pods. We also put the JD style Knife sections on and she cuts like a champ. Since you have Agco in youre genes I just had to rub it in.

I'd be interested to know if you guys can desiccate the beans? In Aus we hit our faba beans with a low rate of paraquat to bring them in evenly. Otherwise patches hang on green forever. Different beans, but similar problem.

Back in my teenage days, we we're trying to finish a field when the dew came in. After running our of shear pins for the JD 24T baler we put in a grade 8 bolt. Not a good idea. No we we're unable to get the rest of the alfalfa field baled.

Setting up the combine seems a little like setting up the race car. Conditions are always changing and sometimes you get so far off that you have to just go back to square one with the "factory" settings.

[@anthony4701]

[@dallasberneking2985]

Is that normal to have the sieves unevenly loaded? Do they have louvers underneath them that can adjust the air streams?

[@Kitosa_Hinoyosha]

Hopefully its just a bad sensor giving you wrong calibrations thats easy to swap out.

[@myfastcars]

Do you sharpen (or have sharpened ) the old removed cycle blades? Don't know if its cost effective or not. Just a question from a farm consumer who wants to better understand what you do to feed us.

Honest question. Has a combine ever been a smooth running machine or hasn't always been prone to small problems and glitches? I am refiring to not just todays machines but also back 20-25 years ago. Thank you.

I marvel every time I see any or you guys replace sickle sections and just take a wrench to the bolt and nut and swamp them out. I dreaded having to replace a section on any of the equipment we had years ago. Get the chisel and hammer, knock of the rivet, hit the punch to break it loose. Then use the rivet tool to squash the new one down.

Thanks for another interesting harvest video. It was most interesting and enjoyable to watch. Sorry you are frustrated with the settings on the combine at harvest time. Good you have the dealer coming out to look at it. Know you had some work done on it so maybe just needs some more adjustments made. Hard to tell sometimes. Sometimes it is just the operation also. Not pointing fingers at you but think you know what I mean. Our hired man and me could never agree on what was Right and what was wrong!!!!! Those were the days!!!!!! He has passed on now, probably got wore out with me complaining all the time; some humor there and I know very little. Lots of the KZbin channels I watch are like you; too much green stems right now, had to quit with the combine. Just that time of the year I think. You could hire me as a high wage consultant and the answer would be the same BUT I would have some money in my pocket-ha!!!!!! See you had you and Dad and Onyx and Jim out helping. Pretty good team of good old farm people!!!!!!!! About it I guess. You all take care. Will be anxious to hear how you come out on the combine settings. Take care ALL!!!!! The Iowa farm boy. Steve. 😊👍✅✅💕🇺🇸

[@davidanalyst671]

if your dryer had a pre stage that would pull out pods and leaves, you could have been combining last week. Having an adjustable spout really works great when you are on the go, and need to take care of busiess quick, does't it lolz

Awesome seeing your family. With the green beans and pods in sample.maybe a manual sieve calibration.? First time I saw that sieve calibration on a combine other day. Had buttons on chassis for each sieve. So computer was all up the cock as to where they actually were? We're never opening fully nor closing. Does your combine have that? Made all the difference. And it had been in to get ready at the dealer. I had wondered what these buttons were for and wasn't in manual?

[@bradenconway9066]

I don’t know anything about beans but in peas our case does an unbelievable sample, yes we do get pods once in awhile but compared to my uncle and cousins deere it is much cleaner. Definitely not saying a deere is a bad combine, i would definitely buy one if need be but we do like our red stuff. Neighbor has a 9770 that does one heck of a good job on wheat but can’t clean peas as well as our 7120. In the end the dockage is basically the same at any elevator anyway so just depends on what color you want to run

[@scottshawn1]

How many times have you sliced open a knuckle or the back of your hand changing sickle sections ?

[@TheCountryMan101]

the same machine performed ok last year? could it be the new concaves? compare neighbor settings?

[@clearskiesranch1362]

Last year is totally irrelevant when setting a combine. Might give you a good place to start once in a while but in 45 years of farming I’ve never had two harvest seasons the same

[@coleengogerty3852]

We have been drier than a popcorn fart here in West Central Iowa. Red flag warning indefinitely so farmers are having to watch their equipment extra close for overheating or anything fire risk wise. Our crops are in Central Iowa and had more consistent rain there but most of our beans are out now. Just have a little left and then onto the corn. That lawnmower last time was interesting. They are quite expensive though. Hopefully they drop in price quickly. Thanks for sharing as usual. Hope everyone is healthy, safe and happy.

They are warning buzzers on the monitors. Beeps when engaging and disengaging autosteer system. You can also set the monitor to beep when you are a certain distance from the end of a pass. Too many other things explain but the beeps are just normally a warning of something being engaged or disengaged.
