I remember harvesting milo on my grandfathers farm in the early 1970’s using a open cab John Deere combine. Not sure what model but the dust was horribly itchy.
Custom harvesting is sure different now than it was in 1979 when I went I also went in 1983. With GPS, auto steer semis and big combines! And grain carts carts! The crew I was with out of north Dakota had 2 7700's tandem trucks and 24ft headers. It was fun times back then when I was 19. Now I'm 65 and I would do again in a heartbeat!
GrainSorghum is one of the major grains. It is gluten free. It originated in Africa. Still used for human food there. It takes about 20% more water to produce a bu than corn but will still produce well with limited water. Makes an excellent grain to feed to hogs. A large part is exported to Mexico.
Good job young dude ! Don't let the Haters and keyboard TROLLS get to you ! Your doing fine. I'm a former major market radio DJ and did many commercial voice -overs as well as a daily radio show.. Long before that I worked on large farms running large tractors and machinery. A hint, SAY Nothing when your thinking and stalling for the next thought..You don't have to fill in dead air..A question ? how do you get around copyright fees playing the music of others? . I'm about to do the same thing you do at age 67 in North Dakota.
Hi Cooper! Really enjoying you new TH-cam channel and videos from here in Ireland. 🇮🇪…I’ve been following other U.S. harvesting channels for a couple of years now…just came across your channel earlier this week. Your presentation is superb!! Best wishes! Michael 👍
If you know anything about combining you know that in 6000 lb grain you would be going 1-1.5 mph with a 60ft header. Look at x9s on you tube cutting 100 bushels wheat bigger headers do not always mean more Efficient only more expensive
@@perrywollam8981 Thanks for your comment. Combine separators will increase throughput in volume and will be able to handle 60 feet fine at a good groundspeed. There are lots of 60 foot heads running now in Australia.

Nice looking milo crop

Great video
Thanks for the visit
Cutting fields that big you’re harvesting for the King Ranch.
It might be. But I'm not able to say who the customer is that we are working for. 😉
Quite saying uuuuuuumh
Thanks for your video as always.
Is this milo harvesting on the King Ranch-?
I can't say who I am working for. But I can tell you they have a lot of Milo to harvest

Awesome! Thank you!
I'm 67 and about to work for a custom harvesting operation in N.Dakota.. Never too late man !
All of those combines need 60 foot Honeybee headers for better production.
I'm not affiliated with Honeybee in any way.

It would definitely be fun to see one of those 60 ft honey bee heads
That is the King Ranch, for those who are wondering.
