    I absolutely love the bigtractorpower videos. I harvest blueberries in down east Maine with 9 harvesters, 2 with double heads. I love big tractor power with a passion. Thank you for providing a great TH-cam channel.

      Dank Cummins in Germany it's on Top with bis Harvester like the Legion 770 and 780 on TerraTracs. But they only us headers with 12m up to 13.5m we didn't have that flat landscape.

      Western Kentucky has large scale farming. In our town there are several 1,000 and 2,000 acre fields. Right next to the field this video was filmed in is a 3,000 acre field where we get allot of our Case IH footage.

    always find it fascinating that a freshly cut field of corn can be sowed with fresh seed with minimum cultivation. normally in Ireland, one run of a moldboard plough and then a powertiller/seeder combo restarts the cycle

    How much Combines can unload in one of these grain carts until it is full?

  • @todds4101
    @todds4101 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Fascinating video!!!! I've been slowly cycling through the bigtractorpower videos and they are all very well done. Now I'm curious what the price difference between the Claas vs the S690 is? I come from a JD partial family and have heard the Claas is a superior machine..........but the cost is much higher than the competitive machines.

    • @MrKaba1985
      @MrKaba1985 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Todd S the price is about 400.000 € a new machine with header a bit more so I would think 350.000$ if you want all the stuff and control units like GPS, Laser Pilot, Crop control etc.
      At a test in Europe the Lexion 780 was the best Combine with less on lose and less fuel usage than other. Or we say for 2 Lexion full equipment you can have near to 3 Case or JD.

    Jeez sure looks like a summer monsoon in the background. Would the seeder take cover with the combines or keep on going if lightning isn't to bad ?

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The seeder was headed back to trucks to park for the day. Once the rain starts the seeds do not drill in the ground very well.

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes we film at this farm though out the season. Check out video archive. We have a video of them shelling corn last fall with all 5 S690s running side by side. It is a neat operation to follow.

    Have they so many tractors???

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      They have to cover allot of ground to cover in a short time. The main tractors on the farm include a Challenger MT875C, three John Deere 9620Rs, four 9420Rs, two 8245Rs, three 7210Rs and a variety of smaller horse power tractors like a 6430, 6330s, 5500s.

  • @jhonkenthdelfin6146
    @jhonkenthdelfin6146 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    This John Deere S690 harvester has a failure in cleaning system, I think they made this combine fast and easy. And I think they don't realize the cleaning system if it is good and excellent. Ahh, it's okey. At least they have a new one. John Deere S700i series combine harvester and in UK and Ireland the W series and T series are new looking features. W And t series is more good clean harvest than S600i. I do not think if S700i clean properly. But when I review it, I found the answer that this S700i combines are good than previous harvester like S600i. Oh no! I need to watch more videos on bigtractorpower!!! To learn more. Support this channel!😉

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I am excited to see the new S700s in wheat this year. I filmed an S780 in corn last fall. The farm featured in this video will have S790s for harvest 2018.

    This video is cool and all but I would much rather see that farm owned by 10 or 20 different farmers than just one. The big guys are getting to big and there are becoming less and less actual family farms.

    • @stevenpayne3707
      @stevenpayne3707 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      David Son , risk versus reward. If the family has farmed for generations and all generations of the family choose to stay in the farming operation, then the operation has to continue to grow to support all the generations involved. You can’t fault people for being willing to stick their necks out and take the risk of increased overhead costs with land, seed, fertilizer, and equipment in order to grow their operation. A thousand acres divided by 10 or 20 results in nothing more than 10-20 hobby farms that are not profitable in this day and age. It’s not 1860 anymore.

      all of those brands i listed all make flex heads with all of them when you drive across the field they all flex
      if you buy a non flex head from any of those brands they dont bend at all the style of head they are using are designed to flex and follow the ground with that they also flex in the air

      Drew Tibert hey dumb ass I am a John Deere master tech with 20 years of Deere under my belt , I am a field tech and I bet I can tell you more about headers than you could ever dream of .. my main point in my comment was that Macjunk is flimsy crap poor design and way to light built .. Back when I was younger I worked at a cat dealer working on these pieces of crap they are nothing to brag about waisted 16 hour of Macjunk training from the engineering dept that came to the cat dealer to train us but when asked why they are so lightly built and flimsy they said we are working on it .. So I will accept your apology and do the letters FO !! ??? Mean anything to you ??
