I can't believe anyone would bad mouth farming!!!!! Farmers are the royalty of the living class!!!!! Remember- No farmers NO FOOD !!!!!!
You guys bring such positivity to farming.
No sense in being negative all the be time! Even if things aren’t going as planned, it’ll work out!
It's nice to watch you cause it makes me laugh cause I'm not the only crazy one with problems
Haha welcome to the wonderful world of farming!
I enjoyed your video. Glad you have a Deere combine. We bought one last year and really like all the technology on it. I’ve never Ben in it. My grandson runs it . All the latest technology is awsome. He sets it once and it will automatically correct for field loss. Keep up the good word . What impresses the most is your honesty about yields. And so forth. They knock the Deere but go to an auction and see what holds their value the most
They’ve definitely come a long way with the technology! The Deere we’ve got is here to stay. Love the machine!
Appreciate ya watching!
Keep going. You have a positive attitude. That helps a lot to work out problems. 👏👍🇺🇸
Appreciate it! We certainly try to stay positive! When it gets bad enough you just gotta laugh.. lol
Great video Jay and Randy
Glad you enjoyed it!
We got a 608C and it’s been a great head! We upgraded to a S780 this year and bought a 616C and we’ve been running it this year and the S780 is handling it just fine! We also kept the 608C around in case we couldn’t get in to all of the fields and we also picked our plot with it!
Our neighbor runs a 616C on his S780 as well. It would be nice to have everything 40ft.. but since it’s just Dad and I, we figured an 8 row would keep me busy in the grain chart and semi anyways! Lol
Great video. Awesome job jay
Great video. Glad your 780 is running good.
Appreciate it! We are too.. lol
Great details. Thanks for the video!
Utterly ridiculous the cost of farm equipment these days.
Go check out the price for Deere CS770,,,, we run two of them. And they are second only to a CP770 in price.
I run grain cart for a guy that runs an S680 and he uses a 12 row 20 inch head. That head is the same width as an 8 row 30 inch head. He prefers that over anything bigger.
Have 16 row planter and 12 row folding head. Works good
12 vs 8 is pretty simple, you can move somewhat faster with an 8 - all those fun benefits.
I have driven red green and yellow combines and why are the green combines so many more moving parts all the way back in the 1970s ? Also even the newest deeres when you unload you would think the roller chain was next to your ear with all the noise
Dad ran an S670 back in the day as a test and he’ll agree to you how loud it was! When Deere started making their own cabs they didn’t use automotive glass which has a lot of noise reduction.
This new S780 is QUIET. I can’t hear anything in the cab. Scares me sometimes because I don’t think it’s running.
I’ll agree on the moving parts as well. So many adjustments gotta be made on the outside of the machine just to go from corn to beans.
Get a 16 row. Run 16 on our 760 lexion traded to 8600 lexion now running 18 row 30 in handles in nicely
An 18 row 30? Never seen that before. Do you have a 36 or 18 row planter?
@@salisburyfarms 36
I don't know if it's a new thing they are all aluminum supposedly lighter than the old 12 row heads. One thing that prevented us from going 18 on the 760 claas would void warranty over 16 rows
That’s very interesting I’ll have to look into it!
@@salisburyfarms just asked boss the name of the corn head made by GTS out if Brazil I believe. They are setting up a plant in Boone Iowa.
This is the first time watching did you trade off a red combine for a green one? If so why? Must not be loyal to one brand?
We needed a combine right away for harvest as our other one caught fire on the second day. John Deere had us a combine within a day, so we traded in a red one for the green! That's all. Not particularly loyal to any brand!
we had the same issue with our combine this year and we changed the sensor and then changed that front filter and it fixed it. the filter had a bunch of sludge in it.
Yep! We changed all that and it ran fine. Had to flush the system though as the hydraulic fluid had lots of water in it.
@@salisburyfarms I'm guessing at some point there was condensation. who knows but at least there is someone else have the same issue bc all of our techs were like never seen this before on an 780. I always say its always something simple 9 times out of 10.
@nickeckel6877 it’s always a bad day when you hear the words ‘we’ve never seen this before’ out of a service tech lol
Who on there right mind would go from red to green
maybe next time you bring a bucket with you!
I run Drago and Deere. The Drago is expensive to work on compared to the Deere. They both do a great job. I like the Drago better. When you have to raise the snouts on the Deere, better get some help and go ahead and call the chiropractor.
Hahaha well I don’t mind if it’s expensive to work on, so long as it’s saving me a couple bushel per acre from head loss. Which I think it would compared to the Deere. That 608 butt shells terribly!
Full watch, great video, first time I see you, liked and subscribed
Thanks so much! Appreciate it!
You might have to speed up your back shaft to run the feed rolls faster it'll pull down a lot quicker and you won't get as much trash coming into the machine
Unfortunately the stalk rolls on that head were just so shot they weren’t grabbing the stalk and pulling down lol
One of the major problems with the Deere head. Rolls cost a small fortune. You can basically add a few dollars per acre to your costs because of them. Seriously thinking about switching to geringhof for the replaceable knifes and to try to cut down on butt shelling.
One would have thought that the dealer would have done a systems check!
Well we bought it and drove up and took it home within 24 hours on a weekend because we were so pressed for time haha doesn’t surprise me something was missed!
that spill valve code usually means you have an injector over fueling or sticking closed
Yea that’s why I ignore it haha we just had all the injectors changed a year or two before so I’m thinking it’s just a bad harness or sensor. But certainly wouldn’t put it past an injector already bad!
I would highly recommend 360 Yield chain rolls. They eat the stalk into the head 10x better than junk ass Deere knife rolls. Put them on the 612fc and made a world of difference for wet grass patches and starting earlier in the mornings no trouble
I wanted to try those out but heard they eat gearboxes.. how long you been running them?
Hmm I'm just now catching your channel and watching this, so I realize my input 3 weeks later is mostly null, but we run a S680 and a 9770 both with 612C heads and use JD1720 16row stack fold planter, and up grading to a JD1725 16 row Exactemerg stack fold next year. and we have no problems running the 12-row head with the 16 row planters. Now as far as my opinion of the JD head, well I hate the header loss it has. And been trying to get the boss to do some upgrades to them like Calmer chopping Stalk rolls and their stripper plates would help but would like to see how a Drago or Geringhoff compares.
Now as far as your FieldView all you need to do is to put a puck in the combine connect it to the IPad and it will record to the IPad directly using the combines info. Anyway, that's what we do with both our 9770 and S680.
Great content and enjoyed the video hope you have had a good and safe harvest so far.
That’s some great information! We’re looking into the Drago GT’s for next or maybe the following year because we also don’t like the head loss.
Glad to hear the 12 row isn’t a problem with the 16 row planter. We thought about trying one out but never did thinking it would be.
We definitely need to get some sort of yield monitoring going with fieldview. Appreciate ya! Thanks for all the information.
Happy farmin!
Larson farms - video they run two heads one a JD & the other a gear.. this year it appeared they both operated the same?
Don’t know much about the geringhoff, but I know I see them enough to think they may be better
Hi i just come across your channel my question is why the hell would you take a step down to a johndeere you must have a good set of wrenches because your going to get to know them very well we run 8250s and love them.
Well they both have their issues I can tell you that! We did like how simple our case was but don’t regret buying the 780, it’s a very nice machine to run. As far as repairs I guess we’ll find out! It’s a good thing we know how to work on em, and Deere has great service here with Prairie State Tractor close by 👍🏼
I love the fuel tank comment😂
Sparland. 25 miles from where I grew up in Peoria. Subscribing.
Visit there a lot!
@@salisburyfarms Based on a sample of two (your wife and your sister), the ladies are prettier now than when I was growing up there in the 50's. Used to wrestle Roanoak/Benson when I was at Peoria HS. Never in the Lacon area that I remember. Felt like I had seen the ceiling of every gym in Illinois.
@toddmarshall7573 haha I think back then sparland would have been considered the Hilltoppers? Not entirely sure on that. But I think Roanoke might have been in the conference at the time!
@@salisburyfarms Roanoke and Benson were consolidated: Roanoke/Benson HS.
yes 708c eric
Massy Ferguson is the king here in Miami County Ohio there big fendt gets down to i have green its all Oliver's
$200 a piece, no low ball offers, I know what I have.
Lot of guys have had stalks coming in this yr. Variety dependent.
I definitely think it was a little bit of that yes, but the stalk rolls were also completely junk lol
Hey you plant golden harvest seed wondering if you went on Alaska cruise. We use a drago head don't like it
Used to plant golden harvest, not sure if dad still is. If so it’s not much. We haven’t been on a cruise, sounds like a good time though!
Really, that’s interesting! What don’t you like about it? Is it a Drago GT?
of course you did. going from case to jd. that jd will nickle and dime you to death. jd service is expensive. I have both because my Father in law bleeds green. every year the jd costs 5x more to run plus the samples are dirtier and harder to keep the grain in the combine. Day he retires is the day we will not have a jd on his farm.
Howdy new Sub here this my first vidjeo from ur channel, it seem as though ur a natural in front of a camera so congrates looking forward to more vids from ya ita noon on 11/12/23 football is fixin to get movin see ya
Glad ya liked it! Appreciate the kind words. Wish your team the best! See ya next time
Why did you go from a rock star cih axial flow to a deere 780?? 😢 if ya bought another red machine wouldnt need to update the 2208ch.
Couldn’t get a red one in time! We loved our red combine but Deere had us a stellar deal made within a couple hours. Deeres S780 reminds us a lot of the case now. They’ve fixed a lot. Still takes some time to set for good sample but a great machine nonetheless the less!
Green is pretty but damn brake alot
Best heads are JD
16 row corn head
It can certainly handle it! Just seems a little overkill for our operation at the moment haha
I have a question. This machine can harvest wheat and corn
Yes it can!
Love our drago gt. But theyre pricey. Deeres do okay. You need to clean those multicouplers with a rag and contact cleaner or youll end up with problems
I’m thinking we’ll run a Deere a couple years then buy a new drago gt. That seems to be the game plan for now!
Put devastators on it
We do have devastators sitting in our yard, just haven’t received the brackets yet… if we were to keep the Deere head we’d also put calmers back on it.
The gt needs a low profile mount I think with out the springs. They use like a rubber torsion setup
We'll have to look into that, I think we want the torsion spring set up anyway so it sets better on our head carrier!
In our area here in Pennsylvania a lot of guys will run a John Deere head on a case combine. What does that tell you.
Used to be you'd see lots of corn in Bean fields the year after a Deere went thru. Thus year, it's the other way around. How'd that happen?
The more technology the more the expense. I ran a John Deere 95 combine on our family farm of 600 acres of corn and 100 acres of white winter wheat and did custom work. Didn't have the problems you have today.
Was a better time back then!
@@salisburyfarms Equipment-wise, yes. The sad thing was the criminal government, which never changed. O. Freeman was JFK's Ag Secretary who pushed the socialist ag agenda. My next-door neighbor, Alex Zsigo, got drafted and was killed in Vietnam.
@@salisburyfarmsHell it was better in the 70s through the 90 than it is today.
Boy I dunno. 80’s sounded pretty rough!
All good but you can't farm 3.000 Acres like we do an also insurance make you have a combine that give moisture an bushels per acer
Good luck getting your combine running
I don’t know why you got that Deere combine! There is nothing you like about it
There’s plenty we like about it! Just haven’t gotten to those videos yet!! Lol
will im depressed now
Fendt
Too bad you need that def.
You sure like to show your face and talk. How about showing the machinery in action?????
Some videos I’m chatty, other videos I’m not. A lot of videos I have drone footage of the machinery in action!
Many Americans have had to run up their credit cards to pay for food and rent. But yet over 50% of the corn crop in the United States is grown for ethanol production which is mandated by the federal government. Next year the federal government is going to hand out over 30 billion dollars in subsidies for farmers. So not only do they get free money from the government for growing corn, but they then get to sell that corn for ethanol production.
Farm bill check it out they don't pay sales tax on equipment either many many perks
The top 10% of farms receive 80% of all subsidies. In fact 50 of the Forbes 400 wealthiest Americans received subsidies. About 62% of U.S. family farms did not receive subsidies between 1995 and 2020.
So trust me I understand. Subsidies are supposed to be there as a protection for farmers. But realistically the average U.S. farm does not see that money. Anybody that went through the 1980’s in agriculture will understand that insurance and subsidies are a necessity.
I just wish there were more incentives for smaller farms. Studies have shown small farms take care of the land far better than large operations. Unfortunately the rich get richer.
It’s a racket.
@@salisburyfarms who are you selling your corn to? Let's look at ADM, for every dollar they make off of sugar it costs the American taxpayers $10. For every dollar they make off of ethanol it costs the American taxpayers $30. So I'm not unlikelihood that you're not receiving any subsidies The market that your sign into is heavily subsidized.
Ok for one thing 40 % of the corn in the US goes to Ethanol production. Second thing the money that has went into the Farm Bill from 2019-2023 was 428 Billion dollars. And of that 325.8 Billion has went to Food Stamps and SNAP programs. And my question is: how much of that could be eliminated if people actually had ambition to work
Yada Yada Yada done with ur channel work more talk less
Thanks for watching!
Ha ha ha what a bull shit comment Lyle., can you feel the love ❤️
I see an auction in their future
From experience?
@@salisburyfarmsbuy a case ih combine
Knowing you, probably.
Why is everybody complaining about the john deere combines? They are a whole lot better than cade IH and Clauss
I imagine it’s because of the thumbnail of the video. But really they’ve all got their pros and cons!
Lol
Read the manual.
Got done with harvest Friday night now doin tillage good luck
Good deal!!
it was bought from a dealer
ergo then it is a negotiation problem
not your problem
with there being water in oil
but there is something I don't understand¨
and it is that you only have 1410 subscribers
but there are 63000 who have seen your video
I can only say you are doing well👍👍👍
Haha yep! They fixed the oil for us!
Also I appreciate the kind words!
