Maize 2011 - Tractors in Trouble! + Two Foragers Together!

  • We start with Rob on the Case 210 giving a helping hand, go on to see likewise to a John Deere tractor with loaded trailer. Then, to show it isn't just the Deeres getting stuck, the New Holland with empty trailer tries for it, and also becomes helplessly bogged. Kept you busy Rob?
    Then - wait for it. The 7850 comes into the field and we see the two foragers working together, almost side by side. Never seen this before. . . .

    Thanks for posting this video. They were pushing the conditions a bit, as it was pretty muddy that day, but those huge tires help keep them moving and harvesting. The operators seemed to know exactly what they were doing, probably from years of work together, which is always very satisfying to watch.

    Because if you wait at that time of year the ground just gets soggier! Anyway I made no claim to have anything to do with it other than film it. Not my ground, farm, machinery or anything else.

    The two drums are there containing addtive that helps the grass to ferment and make good silage. A slightly different product is used for whole-crop.

    I suppose if you always throw it over your left shoulder it comes hard to start thinking about the opposite! But you are not wrong - there are likely some other factors in the equation that we know nothing about.

    To MrSDSTRIKEBREAKER
    The Case came with a trailer (see earlier videos on this) but it came off when the Forage Harvester wanted to tow it behind for the headland run. It stayed off and Case was pusher for the rest of the field.

    Yes, it was quite exciting to watch, and listen to.

  • @RobbyLucey
    @RobbyLucey 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very well done as usual. Regardless of ground conditions or drawbar loads, the TM's are not the best, traction - wise.

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, true. But equal conditions rarely happen in real life and last year these fields were harvested quite happily. With normal equipment.

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Well, there's plenty to go at! The early ones, in Scotland, had to be heavily compressed in order to upload them so they are not such good quality - but still interesting. . . . . . . Alan

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for that - but I wouldn't want you to run away with the idea that I'm the farmer. I'm just the photographer who's allowed in to film it. After this disaster here, he said this year "Don't come tomorrow, we will be on that sticky bit" So I didn't, of course! Perversly, of course, I understand that everything went wonderfully well that day!!

    To MultiTheScout
    I asked the driver if he had fun - he didn't seem to think it much fun!

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Late, yes - because of the weather.
    No corn - it's maize, and it's grown for forage so the foliage is still eaten quite happily.

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks Chuckles. I shall be more hard on them, though, in future.

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks Chuckles - I was hoping someone would try a little fact, to curb all the speculation!

  • @Grumpy_old_Boot
    @Grumpy_old_Boot 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I always wondered why they didn't use the PTO to add drive to the wagons wheels, so instead of dragging them trough the mud, they'd add some pushing power. Heck, add some tracks there and you'd have huge soft ground capability if paired with a tracked tractor..

    I've no idea. There's not a lot of sitting around watching so it's probably a case of "Jump on and lets see you do it"

  • @007TruthSeeker
    @007TruthSeeker 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ah! That happens in farming, as I know, so you have to harvest when "possible," which may include some glitches like getting stuck briefly and such. Good luck.

    I like the part where the NH is squirming for grip! I never harvested maize before, is the Case there purely to push the rest out? Does look steep in places mind.

  • @balmesh
    @balmesh  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the "good video" bit, but I don't need a Deutz. In fact I don't need a tractor at all as I don't have any land! I'm just the photographer.

    nice vid, dont often see two choppers working so closely, do the trailers just have the super single wheels on them or have they got the wide floatation ones? most contractors are going for the wide tyres on the trailers in scotland now, make a big difference

  • @1DirtyMutt
    @1DirtyMutt 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    It’s obviously a wet year and the corn is long past its prime for corn silage. You can chop corn in any direction, why not just stay on the high end of the field? Stay out of the standing water/ low end, either leave it there or come back after it freezes...

    • @anteradnic9007
      @anteradnic9007 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      it is good if you can't have enaugh of hay. this option is cheaper, but milk fat level is lower in case that you are feeding cows with silage.
