Wheat 🌾 Harvest 2024 with 2388 Case IH Combine

[@Machines85]

The part about automation technology on combines really blew my mind, I never thought agriculture had advanced this far!

[@Thomasfarmstn]

That’s 20 year old equipment

[@azon79descubrimiento]

Modern machinery has greatly improved productivity.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

And we are 20 years behind

[@AgriTech-x6v]

Agricultural machinery has helped people a lot.

Man yeah, y'all were getting it done!! Looked amazing to me!! Love the drone footage!! Had me rolling talking about the singers yiur Dad was fond of 🤣😁 I was supirsed at what my little patch made, curious to see how much straw I can get baled Monday. That's pretty cool he came and baled that straw, little money in your pocket too!! I saw the mirror there, the ole hair has grown alot !! Looking fwd to seeing the DC beans!! Thank you Russ for bringing us along!! 😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏻👍🏻🌾🌾🌾🌱🌱🌱

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Yeah it’s time to get a hair cut. I’ll have to text you to find out what you made.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

@@Thomasfarmstn 😁😉 I bet your daughter loved seeing it grow though!! Happy Father's Day too!

[@RandWFarmstead-TonyWalsh]

Blessed with your wheat harvest and your bean planting Russ. Take care and have a blessed rest of the weekend my friend.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Have a good weekend Tony.

[@nathanalmond8280]

Thanks for sharing the video Russ. Nice looking wheat. Take care and I hope you are knocking along with your bean planting.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Done with bean planting, if I don’t have to replant.

[@Husker3435]

Good to see wheat harvest under way, hopefully the hydraulic line is the only break down for wheat. Funny when ya said said Morgan Wal Mart 😂hope the yields keep climbing hoss. Hope you have a great Father’s Day Russ. God Bless all y’all 🇺🇸💪🏻🇺🇸

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Thanks Husker!

[@microsoilenhancersinspirey5750]

Congratulations Russ on your wheat crop! Our wheat in this area is having a rough time getting test weight over 55 with all the rain we had in may.. I had a field of cereal rye never made a head and I spent a bunch on it so I get your idea on not spending a lot on your wheat!

[@Thomasfarmstn]

I spend enough. I shoot for 80-90 bushel. Last year was my year for low test weight. I’m just happy with what the good Lord blessed me with.

[@terryhobdy5727]

Good video Russ im glad everything is going well.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Thanks Terry!

[@SoybeanFarmer3300]

[@jamesharrod8733]

glad to hear your combine is working well, not bad looking wheat , wheat is turning up here in southern indiana

[@Thomasfarmstn]

I figure yall would be in full swing there.

[@jamesharrod8733]

Not yet there are still some planting , some hay is being baled since no rain in forecast

[@danaedwards5464]

looks like the weather is working with you for this harvest

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Yes and this week is hot and dry!

[@Onealfarm9967]

That auto steer work pretty good in that combind 😊good looking wheat all the wheat around here turned into hay

[@Thomasfarmstn]

No autosteer on the combine, yet!

[@turbo5488]

Hey Russ, how's everything going with y'all there today? I went out and looked at corn and soybeans, and they looked great. Corn is 3 feet, and the soybeans are 8in tall, and they are looking good I want y'all to have a great weekend and a great wheat harvest 👍👍👍

[@Thomasfarmstn]

It’s Hot here Mike!

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Hello Russ wheat looks great from my view thick. Be a long month before combine any around here. Hope I can cut some hay next couple days. I was thinking bale some straw if I can get some but not sure if I can find a market for small squares. They say if dont try cant succeed , I'll try. Enjoyed your video thankyou have a great day.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Small squares are a hot item here.

[@jamesmorrison1884]

@@Thomasfarmstn Maybe I'll truck there if worth it.

[@luisnunes7933]

Hello, Russ! Fine looking wheat with lots of kernels but the excessive late rain damaged the specific weight!

[@Thomasfarmstn]

I think the excessive rain and doubling over the nitrogen in places hurt the yield.

[@craigrudd6093]

nice drone shots

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Thanks Craig. I did bring the camera, lol!

[@randywilson9611]

Good video Russ good to see you

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Thanks Randy!

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

It must be a great feeling seeing golden grain flow into the hopper. You ought to try and find some vintage Dave Dudley for the radio. Good country from way back.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Was he the 6 days on the road guy? The last real job I had was an office job. I listened to an AM country station a lot. They played old stuff.

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

@@Thomasfarmstn Yep, he did 6 Days On The Road. My favorite is George Of The North Woods.

Hope you wheat doing well here in the piedmont of nc the 10 inches of rain made all the wheat Feed wheat

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Yield wasn’t what I wanted but the test weight I was happy with.

[@TheGrumpyFarmer]

I like Jeff’s wheat harvest better. His new combine operator is better looking 😂

[@Thomasfarmstn]

I hear ya! 😂

[@gregrhodes8451]

Hey ole buddy! We went wet to dry faster than I ever seen. God bless you and your family

[@Thomasfarmstn]

It’s getting dry here. Just finished double crop beans.

[@danielbrown8602]

Pretty sure I saw some wheat on the cab there Russ.

[@Thomasfarmstn]

Guilty! Thought I could make it to the truck!

[@GordonBright-sq4ef]

Had your little helper with you figured might store some see if price might go up

[@Thomasfarmstn]

I am planning on storing a little if there is not store after paying bills.

[@BadFarmer85]

What are the wheat harvester settings: rotor, wind, concave distance? Good job. 😊

[@Thomasfarmstn]

I would have to go look. We have generic settings we start with then tweak until we get it right.

Did dealer fix issues you had on combine ok ?

[@Thomasfarmstn]

We didn’t use the automatic header control in wheat. But I think it’s fixed.
