New Idea Uni Harvester Picking Corn

  • Picking continues with the New Idea Uni Harvester Corn Picker. The 6-row picker is filling wagons pretty quickly, which was surprising to everyone because there was that much corn there. There are about 4 acres of corn left from chopping corn earlier this Fall. The Deer and Turkey in the area have definitely been sampling quite heavily, so we wanted to pick some to see if there was enough corn to set up the Owatonna 205 elevator in the Corn Crib. There obviously was. The 830 Case is running the Minnesota Gravity Box, and the Farmall B is running the elevator. We show the inside of the 839 Husking Bed and the conveyor. After a beautiful day of picking corn on our small dairy farm, the snow and wind start to pick up. Jen was thankful for her neck warmer that she purchased from a local small business, Rustic Rose.

    Looks like you can get over some acres with that ole girl. Used to take me forever one row at a time 🤣 really like feeding cob corn, better than the stuff mills grind nowadays. Used to add cob, can't even find a mill with them. I don't care what anyone says.... I'll go back to the old days anytime. Take care

    Minnesota wagon and a Owatonna elevator made in Owatonna Mn. We use to be a big producer of farm equipment years ago. The elevator on your UNI is working great after the rebuild. Nice standing corn so you can run the snappers right under the ear.

    Your videos are warm and leave me with a positive feeling. Your family farm requires 24/7 responsibility & devotion not only to the farm but to your beautiful family! I have said this before but what you as parents share with the children are some of the most significant lessons in life. And as parents, you provide & share the leadership with pure devotion to all the kids! In the future, each child will have a defining moment of enlightenment and insight that will clarify the depth of the blessings bestowed on them by their unique, loving parents!🙏
    Globally there are tens of millions of children that have nothing but the air they inhale. Perhaps the big guy upstairs might appoint you both as Global Parents with the power to impart true meaning of love!🙏

    Alan and Jen, Your hard work on the Farmall B is rewarded by starting up in such cold weather. But, as the day goes on I think Jen might of wanted to be in the Cab of your picker., The wind started blowing and the snow started falling that's really not a good place to be on a quad. And the fast ride home, in the dark on the Case had to be chilling but where was Jen? I pray for you all, Skip Ruckert

    The two pieces of corn harvesting equipment I liked were the New Idea mounted picker and the Uni System. You could do so much with the Uni if you had a little thought. I think we had the 702 with a 292. We tried to find a four row head only could find a 3 row unit.

    You did a nice job on the elevator. I put some plywood on the back half of my wagons when I picked. It was about 2 feet high and it saved a lot of cobs and you could fill the wagons a little fuller. I sit run my 704 but the sprayer stays on it now 500 gal and 60 foot booms, got a light bar for a AB straight line and a GPS from the truck to tell me how fast I'm going. Sure beets the foam markers I started out with.

    So after the corn comes in from the header, you have screw like rods that carry it up to the top of the machine behind the cab, and a rubber paddle roller bar tries to knock the corn leaves off, and a fan blows any stalk and leaf material out the side, and the corn falls into the back and up the conveyor and out the back into the trailer? Is that how this machine works?? Do the cows eat the cobs as well or just eat the corn off of the cob?

    • @trinitydairy
      @trinitydairy  ปีที่แล้ว

      It has a conveyor, that carries the corn up from the head to the top of the machine, there it has a fan mounted on the side, that sucks the loose material off, and throws it out the side, Then the corn falls onto rollers that spin, and pull the husks off the cob, it also has rubber fingered wheels, that spin, above those rollers to loosen up the husks,
      Once the cobs get to the end of the rollers, they fall into the rear conveyor, and go into the wagon.
