Right place at the right time and it helps to know someone or be part of. What a large operation there. I would be just amazed to be able to see all this and I must say you are so lucky to be able to do that. I worked at the railway for the last 31 years of my working life and it would be about what you see and do. Not the same but very few would ever see what goes on in the operation of different parts of the railway. I only wish that I had the technology back then to have what we have now to produce videos. I could have made so many of them but it didn't happen as it was not in this area. Thanks for posting your great videos and keep them coming I really enjoy seeing what you video and explain to your viewers.
We have some ride along videos with this farm in beans and corn in our archives. We did not get one in wheat this year. We do have a 20 minute video of all 9 combines working from the ground. In that video they have a demo unit from Claas in addition to all of the S690s.
They have 10,000 plus acres of corn, 10,000 acres of wheat that goes into double crop soybeans. They plant 300 acres of tobacco and raise 600 acres of hay for their cattle.
They like MacDon. They droned a 45ft Deere but liked the MacDon set up better. We have s video of the Deere demo in our video archives on TH-cam. Search 6 S690 combines.
Five of the combines are new each year. Three are held over from the prior year. Five combines are 2016 models and three are 2015 models. The 9420R 4wds are 2016 models and traded each year.
In this area most farms run one combine for each 1,000 acres of wheat. There are two factors. The first is they want to cut as fast as possible because soybeans are drilled in right behind the combines. You want your seed in as early as possible to beat the summer heat during the blossom stage of the bean. The second factor is rain. We have heavy thunderstorms and that can delay harvesting, delay soybean planting and cause disease in the grain.
Thanks, It's great to get a look at the way it's done on the other side of the world, keep the narration going.

Thank you.
Never thought of farms this size In Kentucky! Thank you for posting!
There are several in the 10,000 to 20,000 plus acre size. Some even larger.
Never stop narrating, the information is awesome. Great video, thanks You
There are more videos on the way showing all these combines at work and the three air drills.
Thank You, I will be watching and glad I subscribed a couple of months ago, one of my favorite subscriptions.
This is an awesome farm operation. It is probably a tremendous job keeping things in order and going.
Awesome display of green POWER!!!!!!!!
It would be awesome for you to do farm tours. Shops, grain handling etc.
You make some of the best videos on TH-cam KEEP POSTING!!!!!! Good job!!!!!
Thank you.
It would be cool if you did a interview with the owner of the farm
Wow!!! Would love to get on that crew
best video yet
You should do a video riding in the combines with these guys

Keep up the good work this video was awsome
Awesome John Deere Video!!!
só das bos em?😂
Wow thats quite a work force!
They work hard to get over 10,000 acres of wheat.
I would hate to see a spark! Holy cow!
Nice vid and info! Why don't you use a drone to film these machines?
We plan to start using a drone in the near future.
Do they crow other crops than the 10000 acres off wheat and soya beans do have more land to crow other crops great video as well

That is a big farm thanks great video
What would be a typical efficiency for this model of combine? I mean to say what percentage of the grain goes on the ground?
Very nice, I guess this belongs to some custom harvesting and not a single farm?
This is a family farms' combines not a custom crew.
Oh, thanks - then it is really impressive!
So the growing season for Beans is end of June to when?
The beans are harvested in late October.
+bigtractorpower many thanks 😊
+bigtractorpower We can't do that here in the uk.
He's breathing really heavy 😂
do you have a fire engine with the crew in case of a field fire?
where was there location and what day @bigtractorpower
This past weekend about an hour North of Nashville, TN. The 2016 wheat harvest is over now.
is there a reason why they arent using standard jd draper headers. i dont know a lot about jd so im asking because im curios

ok thank you :)
Are the machines traded out every year
Five of the combines are new each year. Three are held over from the prior year. Five combines are 2016 models and three are 2015 models. The 9420R 4wds are 2016 models and traded each year.
+bigtractorpower Opps I should have listened closer. Who ever knew that gold comes with green paint on it?
What year are all the macdon combine headers
Same as the combines. Brand new each year.
I live in that town!
millions of dollars in equipment
Awesome
Isn't 8 big combines overkill for 10,000 acres of wheat. My buddy in Montana harvests 10,000 acres with 3 combines.
