The fuel savings are unbelievable (not Calling out anyone) but less burn twice the production WOW? Can see some JD seeders being traded out for another 80 footer and (possibly) a new Case quad track. May even be able to get rid of one Tractor
A very nice video Ben , just like always. Two questions, what is the seed spacing on the seeders and secondly, I am assuming that at one time the country was covered in trees and then removed for farming? Any significance to the reason why the trees were left ? Thanks.
Hi Ed, the original trees were Mallee (small gum tees) and Scrub (small bush trees). The trees you can see have been planted. When this country was cleared, the main aim was to try and leave 15% to 20% to bush as a wind break, nature strip mainly on the gravel ridges and creek ways. The John Deere spacings are 1', and the Disc machine is 7.5".
Some years ago a farmer in Western Australia 🇦🇺 planted 16000 hectares of grain in 16 days. Not sure of the working width, but it took about 9 minutes of pulling and pushing hydraulic levers to set the machine.
Great Video Ben, I always knew that Aussie was different, thanks for sharing
Awesome looking airseeder and cart

Im here to comment. Nice. We run Horsch Cougars at the farm I work at.
Seem your winter wheat. Hows it looking for this year? Do you broadcast spring fertilizer?
@@7rixee we put the fertilizer in with the water for the herbicide. We dont broadcast, no.
@@TrevorStruthers Ah, gotcha. Woulda thought you couldn't spray the amount of N the crops lookin like that need.
@@7rixee when we seed we put a lot down. Then again when we spray
Somewhere in australia they showed 200ft plus air seeder largest in the world. We have 100 ft borough seeder out of canada now.

Does it only take about 3 hours to empty it??
Everything is big in WA I live in Melbourne but loved working WA best climate thanks for sharing Ben 🦘
Why no lupins?
Because so much was produced last year and being a local market, the risks were too high to put another crop in this year.
Kun olemassa lakko-oikeus työntekijöillä työehtojen neuvottelussa, onko työnantajalla samanlainen oikeus työsulkuun omien kantojensa vauhdittamiseksi?
