Wheat Harvest Day 10. How to cut in the hills. - Grain Hogs S02E08

I drive up a few draws and cut out a new piece for us. I try to show how the bridging can cause me to skip and how the hills cause issues with harvesting.

Trevor, your wheat harvesting videos are the most impressive videos on KZbin. Thanks for sharing them with us.

[@cliffblackburn8102]

I can't believe.. how huge them field's are I'm amazed never imagine

[@richardmatthews3304]

Watching from the uk trevor, brilliant videos, i dont expect the camera does the scenery justice it looks amaizing, thanks for sharing it with us

[@TrevorStruthers]

Yeah its steeper than it looks on film. Most would want off the ride. Thanks for commenting!

[@tonymckeage1028]

Great Video Trevor, i enjoyed you cutting out the draws, particularly, thanks for sharing

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Nice long drive across the field to get to cutting...lol.. Nice thing about the rotors, all the dust blows out the back 👍 Keep 'er close to level buddy!!!

[@boomerang379]

The term bank out is a California rice country thing. They haul the rice out to the bank or field access road. I’m in Mississippi, we raise rice too but they’re called grain carts here. Field roads are called turn rows, a name that comes from row crop farming. The turn row or turn road is where the cotton picker turns around or in the mule farming days the mule team turned around to go back the other way.

You know your on steep ground when your fully leveled out and you and your grabbing the door handle to stay in your seat. We may not have as much really bad ground as you folks do in Washington, but here in Wasco County we have enough.

Magnifique champ de blé en pante 😮😊

[@alberthinds78]

I'm 55 years old in The Dalles Oregon, bottom of action yard hill. Experienced hillside Field Man, Grain cart, rock picking extra. Will work for a place to put inn a new clutch and left springs on my truck. Have my own tools and will pay for my own Parts. Will need use a ranch truck to tow my trailer to the job. My clutch is not dead but damn close to it.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Passed along.

[@alberthinds78]

@@TrevorStruthers I emailed you my phone number. Thank you.

[@zacharbert6604]

Great stuff, I'm guessing about 5000 acres?

[@simonott5924]

Does that kind of tire pattern on your combine perform better in those hills than the common ridged ones? Haven't seen that too often. Really impressive footage btw, keep it coming!

[@PistoKTM]

I always asked that to myself... Here in Italy, where we use "real" hillside combine, we use regular tread tyres. We cannot use duals, as the tyres remains perpendicular, so its a different kind of levelling. Never see here a diamond tread, or a tread likes that on a combine. I saw some photos of older Case 1470 or 1670 (factory leveled, so like ours) in the Palouse with singles and diamond tread. Maybe diamond tread and similar have better side stability, but here in Italy we also Need traction because often we have to do tight turns uphill, or work the field up and down, we cant work the field around like in the Palouse.

[@farmingnodak]

Do you go through a lot of rims on the combines or are they specialized to handle the heavy side loads?

[@TrevorStruthers]

Nah, not often do the actual wheel (or rim) fail. Ive seen a big roller on a john deere t track crack in half. Thats on tracks, but is like the rim of a tracked tractor.

[@TrevorStruthers]

Axles and hubs can crack out though and break. Which makes the whole wheel Come off

[@danemeyer7340]

Why is the wheat out there planted in such wide rows? Wheat I've seen is planted in rows 2 inches apart. Is that a special variety of wheat that requires that? What is the typical yield?

[@BryanLarson-d5q]

No wheat is planted 2” in 2” rows. 12” is common for hoe drills… 7.5” or 10” both common with disk drills

[@TrevorStruthers]

Averages vary across our farm.

[@jackwillie2729]

Are thier rocks in thr area your harvesting

[@TrevorStruthers]

A few in certain places. For the most part, no. Its just deep dust

[@John-nc4bl]

Trevor, are those 40 foot headers that you are running-?

[@TrevorStruthers]

Yessir

[@omarklach71]

❤❤❤❤

[@karlmiest4684]

Are you about finished with harvest

[@TrevorStruthers]

A few weeks yet to go. Last year it was 67 days. This year maybe 40 something

[@alanjohnson5914]

Where is this located?

[@BryanLarson-d5q]

The Palouse, that’s in Washington state.

[@StuartDLehr]

What are the row pattern measurements.

[@danhalverson3618]

What are you saying ?

[@joesanders652]

Like your content man , but that camera mounting was making me dizzy with all the moving

[@TrevorStruthers]

I just uploaded a video where it wasnt on my head

[@timwasserman1063]

Mount the camera permanently,you’ll making us dizzy.Tks

[@saint5345]

You're moving your head too much making me dizzy

[@kurtkriener3583]

Having the camera attached to your head while filming is never a good thing. Makes me dizzy watching it, so I just don’t bother watching.

[@TrevorStruthers]

I get that. Ill try other shots today. Check again tomorrow. Thx
