How does a High Tech Combine work? | Field Mapping iPad
How does a High Tech Combine work? In this video we show you how our John Deere 9570 Combine works and what Tech is used to make the combine more efficient. We use a Precision Planting Unit that tells us information like yield and moisture. An iPad Mini is then connected to the Precision Planting Unit for recording the information and performing field mapping.

    We can see that you're in love with the entire process. Can I be honest?....I feel like for the effort put into the composting process, the anticlimax for this process is the long duration to compost. Certainly, this is a hot composting method without turning. Without the pipes, the materials can break down in that same amount of time. But, you are the first person to demonstrate the complete breakdown of all layers

      Johnson Su is a year long process to compost, a continuous flow worm system is a faster composting system that only takes about 3-6 months. The benefits of the Johnson Su is a more fungal dominate compost. Which is great for agriculture use since we are fungal deficient.

    To save you back, you could place a couple trays under the flow-through composter so that, when you crank the bar, the compost falls onto the trays and you don't have to shovel it, especially in that awkward position. You can then lift and move around all the compost in only one move.
