Hi Austin, thanks for the great video. When you point out our engineering talent like that, my heart naturally beats faster. A beautiful Sunday. dieter
Nothing says Harvest2023 like the GPS tracker on Austin zipping around in the fields and running all over Canada. You said this was a quick vid but you managed to cover some awesome big machinery! Bet if you put the wing attachments on that Rogator, you could turn it into an aerial sprayer. Best in show though has to go to the Fendt Ideal 9 with the lean mean Geringhoff header (complete with FLA decals).....and who knew, it even comes with a chauffeur....that's better than auto-steer. With all your high tech ipad skills out in the field, I was a little surprised you didn't just hook that wheat sample to the drone and airdrop it over at the elevator. A low-level hover while they run the sample, a thumbs up from the Man, and you could have been off to the combine races in 10 minutes. #Harvet2023 videos look like they are gonna be awesome. Crank it up bud! 😎 (petition TH-cam for Fendt emojis)
That is some amazingly beautiful country you have up there. I'm on the Eastside of Minnesota and around me and heading into Western Wisconsin a 90 ft boom works out really well but it still could be a lot to manage. When you have 20-acre fields that I have a few trees in the middle and not a square Edge Hawkeye really performed well there!
That is a nice looking hopper of wheat. Harvest seems so early this year but then my corn has been ready for two weeks now and I usually don’t get any until closer to Sept.
Is the added competition from Geringhoff going to bring the price of draper headers back down from the stratosphere? The cost of these new headers is more than a new combine from the mid 2000's.
The thing with farm equipment is it’s one of the only things that haven’t been outsourced to cheaper countries. It cost a lot more to engineer, design, build and produce components all in Canada. Hundreds of hours of labour goes into these equipment and Canadian wages aren’t cheap.
Sadly I don't think it will bring the prices down. Competition is tough but also demand is through the roof across the board. Thank you for the comment!
I enjoyed chasing the big black combine around and doing demos on farms. I was the free support person to the customer. And it was an absolute enjoy going to a John Deere farm and telling them I'm the guy that for free can come out and help you dial in the combine solve little basic monitor settings things like that. How could you Parts in an emergency make sure that your inspections are getting done.... the John Deere and case guys have no clue what that experience was like I also loved it when the salesman said hey we have to go out to another Green Farm and demo against another S Series combine. Because we knew field performance-wise we were going to blow that overhyped hog feed making sheet metal combine look silly It's too bad Millennial farmer had to lie about how the lexion demo really went. It would have made a lot more entertaining video for the people watching to watch that lexion eat that deer live. Funny what some editing can do
I own a John Deere repair shop. when I was a John Deere technician versus when I was a support person with Agco / claas , there is no way on Earth I would have been able at John Deere to spend a day with a customer without charging them As far as the whole b******* about resale value. The standard large farm practice around here was 123 years on a John Deere and then you had to get another new one I'm. With the German machines to run the same anchors on a 10 to 12-year life was a lot more common. Now if you look at repair maintenance you will ours per acre lost corn dockage the annual payments. After 10 to 12 years you could literally Park the German combine Outback and still be a large margin ahead of the typical John Deere guy around here. The John Deere combines are an absolute joke, they're over marketed cheaply built and use that horrible 12-5-13 5 engine. They literally have to be the worst performing, and on the market today and one of the most expensive to maintain annually
@@giligan6534 I wonder why John Deere guys would come onto an ideal video just to argue? I guess you would have to ask him. The guy that bought one of his used machines is running around saying what a great machine it is. John Deere still has the worst performance combine on the market
No wonder pasta makes me feel awful when I eat it … you all separating paraquat all over it a week before harvesting it … and mind you I’m a farmer myself …do what’s right for you for sure and not what’s right for the people that will consume it
I grew up between Asquith and Langham. Farmed hard very young, cheers
Great video Austin

Great video. Excited to see harvest 2023.
Awesome video Austin. Thank you

Good video.
Great video Austin, thank you for explaining all the new equipment, sadly mine is all over 40 years old.
What brands of equipment do you have? Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!
Great video bud sure wish you could be our sales guy and get that equipment from you
❤❤❤❤❤❤
5:05-5:08 Man that's some bad looking arthritis in that first joint. 😁
I’m joking, I know it’s just the glove.
Do you run the standard ideal balance pans when you order IDEALs in or bring them in with the corn/soybean return pan?
I would like to see that head on a Gleaner S98 with the extended unloading auger.
Is this wheat for animal feed or for breadmaking?

Yep exactly...
wonder why mike Mitchell got rid of his ideals and went back to John Deere

@@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754 not here to argue, sir. just asked a question but if that offends you I apologize
Why is it that auto steer doesn't make turns? All the TH-camr farmers I watch manually make the turns.
Ours will turn for you but I don’t like it so I still turn myself.
