Two John Deere X9 1100 Combines with 16 Row Corn heads Harvesting a 640 Acre Field in Illinois

[@perrywollam8981]

The guys running those combines are a well practiced team. Cart drivers also love watching a good team. Working together

[@tony98discovery]

Yes, I appreciate agricultural machinery operators. They are a group that works very well together.

[@marcusjames3814]

Mike my friend absolutely 💯 amazing 👏 u done it again capturing our big class 11 X9-1100 combine harvesting corn wit our JD-14X 13.6 liter power tech pss 830's diesel engine wit twin vgt wastegate turbo chargers rated at 690hp to 743hp max at 1,900 rpm's most farmers have turned there combines horsepower back up to stock horsepower of 690hp to 743hp on our X9-1100's in stead what we at deere had them at for 2023 603hp to 690hp that's were the problem comes in at a bunch of our customers are complaining about the lost in horsepower cause there dumping on the go there kilowat meter would be in the red!!!

[@tfs4499]

I think they've done this before! Great video! GOD BLESS our farmers and ranchers!

[@justincase2830]

Good video Mike! Beautiful section of land. No fuel truck and no service truck. It was magical and worth another view!

[@ScottPykare]

That is one huge field. They definitely need 3 grain carts and a lot of trucks to keep 2 X9's with 16 row heads moving.

[@supercuda1950]

Poetry in motion. Again American workers show how we get more done with less. Great video and great harvest.

[@DonWelter]

Takes a well-coordinated effort between the combine and cart operators...and a huge fleet of trucks to keep it all moving. For the volume of grain moving out of the combines and carts, definitely need to be on-target!!! Even with our 40 yr old machine, need to keep a close eye out when unloading into a parked wagon!!!

[@wayneroland8220]

That farm must own a lot of land. Have all that equipment. They know what they are doing harvesting.

[@jjarm]

Impressive row lengths! Wow

[@tmeyer2022]

Simply Amazing. I can remember my dad pulling a 2 row picker with an Intermational Super H tractor with a trailing wagon picking ear corn for shelling later. Then, in the late 1950's he bought an IH Combine with a 4 row corn header and an 8 ft wheat/soybean header. Combines of that day didn't have a climate controlled cab. He would have to button up his long sleeve work shirt, wear a bandana over his mouth and nose to avoid breathing "most" of the dust. You can't imagin just how dirty he would be at the end of the day. No semi's No grain carts, no grain bin storage, haul it all to the elevator with a 1951 Dodge truck with a 10ft grain bed. Old times were truly different. 😎

[@dcw1540]

Very impressive Mike.thanks😊

[@glennspreeman1634]

Works to the 2 combines are covering an acre per minute!! Wow!!

[@tamiller84]

Great Video - is that dance called the Hokey Pokey :-) You put your left auger out, you put your left auger in, you put your left auger out and empty it all about. You do the hokey pokey and you shift your rows over, that's what its all about.

[@sandrodalazem5834]

Thanks GREAT VIDEOS longe Mike

[@chrisosterhoudt1767]

Absolutely excellent video, very refreshing that you don’t talk or narrate the video, rather you let the equipment speak for itself.

[@aga1nsty0u]

that 8R with them wide tires sure looks nice

[@burtzorn4059]

Sure is nice to have two machines to punch through them mile plus long rows. My boss back in the day had one machine an 8820. Always had some loss doing it with one. They sure do a slick job. I ran the cart tractor a John Deere 4640 fwa quad range with a John Deere 500 cart It was bought from the supplier that built the Dveere cart so it wasn't green .

[@KhathuMunyepuli]

Turning an old playground into a heavy machinery adventure park was so yesterday. Today, we're turning it into an agriculture machine wonderland. Let's plow through!

[@marcusjames3814]

I work for john deere when I test demoed our big class 11 X9-1100 combine for a customer wit our 16CF folding corn 🌽 head harvesting corn 🌽 in 290 to 320 bushel corn 🌽 we had two X9-1100's wit two 16CF row corn 🌽 heads that's 14,800 bushels an hour of corn 🌽 that's enough corn 🌽 to fill 13 semi trucks and we doing it our class 8 S780 and class 9 S790 wit two 12 row corn 🌽 heads thay harvested up to 10,000 bushels an hour if I remember correctly wit two 12CF corn 🌽 heads

[@lesliejentzsch1063]

I still cant figure out why i find watching these videos so captivating. Maybe its teamwork thats involved to accomplish the harvest. Thanks for the vids

[@OpunktSchmidt1301]

Awesome Corn-operation! 😃 Thanks a lot for the video! 😊👍🏻

[@Machines85]

Great video Mike Less! I am impressed with the seed discharge rate of the John Deere X9.

[@mikebutcher6452]

Watching them open a field is quite different than when my grandfather did it walking between 2 rows followed by a team of horses and picking and shucking then tossing the ears into the wagon the horses pulled.

[@ryanharter3411]

Technology has came a long way. My great grandfather used to do the same thing. Then bought a cabless picker before retiring.

[@russell1821]

I like your harvest content, the aerials, and the sound of the machinery)) RL

[@ronaldboake7574]

[@jamesbinkley4325]

[@SimonKL11]

That's an action packed corn harvest video😉👍 two x9's really keep the trucks moving👍😁

[@jeffreyhoover2105]

Mike this was a really good video I can't imagine harvesting 16 rows of corn at one time . Not mention in a field that is one mile long that is amazing . I would love to have a ride in these new combines they have today . Just to imagine how much technology goes into one of those combines and to handle that much corn at one time is just amazing . Thanks again Mike for all the work you put into your videos . I never get tired of watching them God bless and keep up the good work

[@ViXciter]

Hello. With which speed combine can run with 16 rows header? What is the power of combine?

[@FarmHarvestHaven]

This video beautifully captures the scale and precision of modern agriculture at its finest.

[@brandonhickman6658]

Great video as always Mike! I won’t mention names, but I know of this farm and I hope you can catch back up with them next spring!

[@theburnhams2925]

Another great video, Mike! Especially the "bird's-eye view" drone footage. Always enjoy your work. The finely-choreographed "dance" of the big machines is most satisfying to watch.

[@BigTractorPower-z8o]

thật tuyệt vời ..khi có những cỗ máy này

[@TheBiggRiggz]

2 questions, #1- what is the goin rate for either a combine operator or a grain cart operator? #2- if i just walked on to one of these farms and said "hey, i wanna run a grain cart for a day or two or a week", what are the chances they'll tell me to pound sand? I can drive just about anything, been doing it over 20 years. I think the harvester would take me a couple minutes to figure out, but after that I'm golden.

[@NitaChoctaw]

VERY GOOD

[@rickwoodvine.7529]

290+ bushel an acre, two dumps per combine. Three

[@8704031462]

[@staudtj1]

This square mile of corn is probably about 7.5 million pounds . . . Wow!

[@aali9933]

[@TheBiggRiggz]

Ha! I didn't know that "splitting fields" was an actual thing. I play farm sim 22 with my boys. When i play with my oldest, we do the hardest settings which include crop destruction. We were pretty much in this same scenario in game, i got full & he was right behind & beside me. Took me about 2 minutes to think of what we were gunna do, and that was it

[@Parents_of_Twins]

That 2590 Brandt grain cart fully loaded must be pushing 180-200k lbs. It's impressive how quickly that tractor can pull that beast. It's also impressive how fast those combines are going through that corn. Are farm semis exempt from weight limits?

[@Beyonder8335]

I believe they have a higher one during season

[@tomcander3669]

Not in Ohio...you're allowed 5% over the legal gross coming out of the field

[@XLFarmsProject]

With two harvesters of this size, why doesn't the farm use a Walkabout Mother Bins (4000-bu of in-field grain storage), for instance?

[@tumbleweed4185]

They have 5,100 bushel of storage with the 3 grain carts and everything is mobile. One less step than augering through a mother bin.

[@markhaas9265]

I am curious what their yields were. They have to be well north of 215 bushels to the acre. Those hoppers were filling mighty fast. I guess you need all that corn to sell to make the payments, do the Mtce., and feed fuel to that equipment. Very nice video and great field execution on the part of the operators. It is like watching a symphony of farming. 👏👏

[@rickwoodvine.7529]

It's bringing in the same amount as it's unloading

[@TechBo-69]

Does using a 16-row corn head like this really make a big difference in harvest time? Does it significantly improve efficiency?

[@marklollar8120]

That’s a lot of fast moving corn. Did that big cart ever get a chance to empty completely? Not sure I’ve ever seen one that big 👍
