Thank you for this video. I've had a rough day, am in a somewhat antisocial headspace, and get back to my computer to find another amazing video from you. Now I can sit back and watch and put aside my questionable mood. Please let Matt know that we really appreciate his inviting you and us into his day. Cheers! :)
This may as well have been a movie! I like the footage of the servicing of the combines all the way up to the emptying of the grain tank. These weekly doses of BTP does me good. Keep up the good work. Tell Matt thanks for allowing us to follow him during harvest 🤘🏻
I miss farming everyday if I could go back I just woulda stayed part time at UPS for my insurance and farmed. It was just a better time of my life that I voluntarily gave up. Great video buddy!
I like your normal videos, but this was a nice change of pace. It'd be cool to see this start up/shut down in a little more detail... Greasing, fluid checks, etc. Maybe some discussion on some of the automated features that have significantly reduced operator fatigue..? I grew up working on a dairy farm as a kid, spent a little time working on a larger cash crop farm, and then at a co-op. It was pretty groundbreaking to have "GPS" in our machines which just consisted of setting an A-B line and giving us right/left commands. We still had to do everything else... Thanks again for the great videos!
About 20 years ago they ran Gleaner/Massey stripper heads in wheat. You can not harvest corn with a stripper head. In corn the header only picks the ear the rest of the plant is left in the field. Only the ear goes through the combine.
I mean a corn stripper head it just looks like a lot of stolk going in the machine. I probably don’t have the right name but the head that chews up the stalk. Thanks
@@bobbysears6626 I think you mean a chopping head. But like BTP said they aren't pulling the whole stalk through the combine. Generally you will see where some ears break the top of the stalk off. But most of the stalk gets pulled down through the head breaking the ear off the stalk and only sending the ear through the combine
Those 790's are monsters... Rode along in a 780 harvesting Milo and that thing just trucked along... once it got into self learning it was something else.
@@theloniousm4337 From what I understand, when you are on an A to B point, you can go into the combine and tell it a lot of things via the troubleshooter, and it learns from that. If you say you are leaving grain on the ground, etc... it will adjust from that. It was really interesting driving a grain cart chasing that one... the operator had to put it into manual so we could accurately match. My part of working #harvest19 was fun and I would not change it for anything.
@@barrettgpeck Interesting. I left farming before gps was a thing. Everything was manual. Spraying was the worst. Always guessing (and stressing) if you were missing or overlapping. No more guessing.
This is some of the best footage I've seen you shoot yet BTP. watching that corn in the bin go down as quick as it did was pretty impressive. Also watching it unload on that Kinze topping it off while almost spilling it off the back end. lol been their done that. That corn bubbling up pretty dang quick! How long does it take to get a bin?
Western Kentucky.....I know you’re from there but think it would be cool to do some videos in different parts of the country and show the viewers other ways of farming. Thanks and I do enjoy your videos!!
We're will all this end I see your next video showing a24 row head man I can remember running a 4 row header then went to a used 6 row header thought we really had something simply amazing
Great video thank you for sharing and thank you to the farms that let you film. How are the soya beans coming along that were double cropped into the wheat stubble?
Thank you for watching. The double crop verbs were awesome but unfortunately we have had three weeks of 100 degree heat and no rain. Early beans will do ok but late June beans will not fair well.
@@bigtractorpower it is frustrating when that happens we stitched in some new grasses into several of our fields they were coming up beautifully then the weather turned unseasonably dry and cold and a lot of it failed the only one that took off was sheltered from the wind
Second great video in one day. Just a thought, do the workers bring their own food and drinks with them as they appear to be in the field all day long.....? Great video btp. 👍👍
Great Q - I was wondering the same thing. I can see bagged lunch in the cab but 8am to midnight is quite a long day w/o a break. Years ago they used to bring warm evening meals out to the fields - does anyone still do that?
@@theloniousm4337 that's what I always got and I'm 40. Bagged lunch and a hot supper but no stopping to eat it usually. They bring it right up the steps to you and you take off again.
I love your stream and have a question it's about compaction.I see you all are using tires on theses combines is there a big difference from tires two tracks and also what is the moisture content of the corn at Harvest thank you sir
after driving an 8820 II for years driving one of these new combines looks boring. lol on those earlier combines everything is manual. Think I'd rather drive the cart instead where the action is at keeping up with all those combines. lol
First combine I drove after moving to Canada was the Titan 2, but the first thing I can tell you you'd notice is the quiet, not having that big pumper right beside ya, lol. Next would be how you engage the thresher, go from a big lever y's pull to a little yellow button.
Man, all that equipment is in dire need of a good pressure wash. And btw why do you never show sunflower harvest, are there no sunflower fields in the USA
@@noctorius666 The heads they are using are only 12 rows wide,which is 40 feet,they could have opted for the 16 row head,which is 45 feet. This would still be only 22.5 feet wide on each side of the combine.
A question I've had: Is the head chopping up the stalks already, beyond cutting it off the ground, or does the the thresher eat them more or less in one piece, barring some inevitable chopping due to feeding the plants it into there?
Stalks are pulled through stripping/deck plates by snap rollers in the head. That’s what gives the appearance of the corn getting shorter or being pulled down in the head. Some heads also have choppers, similar to a mower, under the rollers for further sizing. Portions that make it into the combine are threshed by the rotor and then sent through a chopper as they exit the machine.
Listen closely to the radio communications at 6:28 . I hear “do we have a little pot grow over there?”... “yeah”. Lol at least that’s what I think I hear. I’m sure these guys run into all sorts of stuff over 30,000 acres.
bigtractorpower lol! I was hoping it was something else haha. I thought something else had ran through the corn header. I’m sure it has before. Thanks for setting me straight there.
What’s the point in that tho? More head shell cause you also have to run the header faster. If you slow everything down then it just works better plus another benefit is that if you run enough machines going to a 16 row you might be able to get rid of a machine
Got that right!!!!! 3.5 mph with a twelve row head! Ohhhhh we’re pushing 5000 bushels an hour with these things!!! Nope, it’s more like 2000 an hour as a realistic expectation of what these can do. Lexion destroys them.

2xKTfc Do I ever know how that feels. Could watch this stuff for ever at the moment.
@@edwardwarrington1809 Hey man, hope your Friday is better than your Monday was, and the weekend gives you a break! :)
I can imagine when the Garnet family calls the dealership about updating part of the fleet they have the dealers undivided attention, lol.

Jarred Bratcher that’s exactly what I’m doing. Working preload for the insurance and farming full time
Good for you buddy you wanting to get into driving?
Not if I can keep farming. I will if I have to. Which is another reason why I won’t leave. Be a good safety net
Nothing like watching these Green Machines go at It😮

Nate K pretty sure he has a video on S series maintenance.
Really great film, thx for your work !
Thank you for watching.
Fantastic video! Thank you Jason
Thank you for watching.
Great video, love it when you are in this area with this family.
The size of this operation and the amount of money tied up in equipment alone is absolutely amazing! Go big or go home! Wow!
Absolutely love the night shot
Big tractor I am a John Deere guy so I love this video thank you so much❤️👍🏻
Great video as always! Love seeing the John Deere working! Thanks for sharing!
Holy green machines..impressive
Thank you for watching.
Good job matt
That was a great new perspective on harvesting I enjoyed watching that
So awesome, thanks for sharing an amazing video
Another great BTP video! Thank you.
Great video! This is one of my favorites.
Wonderful Shots, I appreciated the lens inside the holding tank filling with Corn kernels, very cool.🚜👍
Matt is helping me get those views. More combine clips on the way and very soon close up tillage views.
Like the different angles.more in the future i hope .
Big thumbs up Thanks😎
Big operation, well organised and cool machines.
Thanks for sharing great video 🌽🌽👍👍
Excellent video. Loved the new format. Keep up the good work.
Ha ha, the forMatt.....
I really enjoyed the video. It gave a true sense of what a day is like - although very abbreviated.
Really enjoyed as always!! Thank you BTP!
Thank you!
You would think a big farmer like that would run stripper heads ! That’s a lot of extra stuff going through the combine. Thanks for sharing BTP!!
About 20 years ago they ran Gleaner/Massey stripper heads in wheat. You can not harvest corn with a stripper head. In corn the header only picks the ear the rest of the plant is left in the field. Only the ear goes through the combine.

The auto adjust feature makes these combines very efficient.
Thanks for this video!
Thank you for watching.
Great video. Was nice seeing the details, though would like to see more of that back compartment. Nice seeing the real thing in action.
They must have a huge dryer to keep up with all those combines
They do. You can see some of their 3 million bushel grain bin system at ruclips.net/video/phAR1EaNFrw/видео.html
Did anyone else get that 'Deer in the headlights' feeling? 🦌
Hey BTP have you done any videos on harvesting the hemp yet? I'd like to see how that is done.
bubba wubba I saw a video for that. It was very unique....
might check out tractorspotter for something like that
Awesome video you sir are the competition
Great video with awesome footage!
Let Matt know his tatoo is awesome looking >>>
Awsome video more videos like this will give me a good mood
I think you should include Matt in more of your videos
I really enjoyed that video really informative
Outstanding Mike a great video and it went good with my lunch as always thank you for your time.💪💪👍👍

Hi, Reasonably new to your channel but you do a great Job ! Making good entertaining video's keep it up 👍
Thank you Robin. I appreciate you watching BTP. Many more farming videos on the way.
Big bucks
Dan Conner would like this video
We're will all this end I see your next video showing a24 row head man I can remember running a 4 row header then went to a used 6 row header thought we really had something simply amazing
John Deere S-790 the standard that others are measured by.
4 gauge the new CLASS is phenomenal, check it out sometime.
@@GeoffPeterson33 I have and why Deere is the"standard"other brands are judged by.
Wieviel Kubikmeter hat der Bunker des Dreschers und wie lange dauert die komplette Entladung?
Does the farm have their own fuel truck or do they have a local distributor come out to the field to refuel their equipment? Good video Jason 👍🚜
The farm has 2 fuel trucks
Wow. I never realized how big the farms are in Kentucky.
I did not either until I moved here 20 years ago. It is a big agriculture state.
Great video thank you for sharing and thank you to the farms that let you film.

what was the corn making ....bushels per acre?
I’m curious how many acres the farm in the video farms?
You’ve may have answered this before but it’s very impressive to see this operation in action.
Don't know if you ever found out but in another video the guy Matt mentions they harvested about 11,000 acres of corn alone this season.
Great video as always. Thanks you very much👍 just a question? Is Matt part of the Garnett family ?
I am not part of the family however I have worked for them for almost 15 years.
Hey bud, is this a wee teaser into Matt TV ??
I wish I had time to dedicate to my own channel. But for now I’ll get some video and let Jason make the videos.
how close are thy to bean harvest or are thy using the other combines on beans now
No soybeans until October. The beans are all still green.
When they were unloading into the grain cart, what was all the black buildup on the mirror and the hand railing?
Corn dust is my guess. It builds up with the acres they are covering.
Especially if you’re doing high moisture feed corn that stuff is relentless.
after driving an 8820 II for years driving one of these new combines looks boring. lol on those earlier combines everything is manual. Think I'd rather drive the cart instead where the action is at keeping up with all those combines. lol

How does the 12 row corn head fit into their operations?
generationll probably have a a 24 or 36 row planter
What's next field work after corn harvest?
Why don't they operate with 16 row headers?
At 11:07 look's like a lunch box fell open and the contents flew out.
spliceon charlie ya know what? I just now saw that.... lol 😂
HOW MANY BUSHELS DID THEY CUT THAT DAY!!!!
Where u driving one of the combines
I was not.
Does matt have a RUclips channel
anywhere near I-24 ?
Yes we have a few fields close to I24
First! 'am a ninja! :D
P.s. great video as always!
Thank you for your enthusiasm and for watching.
@@bigtractorpower Thank you! :)
They must have thousands of acres to afford all that equipment or do they lease it?
Do you work on the farm
I do not. I just follow it through the season the film their machines.
Man, all that equipment is in dire need of a good pressure wash. And btw why do you never show sunflower harvest, are there no sunflower fields in the USA
How long is the unloading auger on a s790 looks to be a pretty long one
28.5 ft.
Is that the longest that john deere offers I know the new claas ones are going to be like 32 feet I think
@@noctorius666 I'm sure the new John deere combines will have longer augers because there're putting out a 50ft header for em
@@noctorius666 The heads they are using are only 12 rows wide,which is 40 feet,they could have opted for the 16 row head,which is 45 feet.
This would still be only 22.5 feet wide on each side of the combine.

The head cuts the stalk from the rut wad and strips the ears of corn from the stalk.
Do you ever treat these guys for letting you film them
Is your buddy matt a garnett?
He is not. He has worked there many years.
@@bigtractorpower very nice!
we all can agree that no matter what, deere's puke the grain out the back like crazy
About 4million worth of equipment right there huh?
I would say over 5 million. Lots of acres to harvest in corn, wheat and soybeans.
bigtractorpower I didn’t see the last combine. Man that’s a helluva monthly payment to the ole bank I can assume.
Listen closely to the radio communications at 6:28 . I hear “do we have a little pot grow over there?”... “yeah”. Lol at least that’s what I think I hear. I’m sure these guys run into all sorts of stuff over 30,000 acres.
Be is asking if Paco is over there. That is one of the operators out in the field on a combine or cart.
bigtractorpower lol! I was hoping it was something else haha. I thought something else had ran through the corn header. I’m sure it has before. Thanks for setting me straight there.
Nothin' runs like a Deere
24 billion kernals per 1000 acres..wish i had a dollar for 1 acre of kernals
So does the farmer 😁
Why in the world would you buy that big of a machine and only run a 12 row. That’s a waste of HP
Waste of fuel.
You can run at a faster speed with a smaller head.
What’s the point in that tho? More head shell cause you also have to run the header faster. If you slow everything down then it just works better plus another benefit is that if you run enough machines going to a 16 row you might be able to get rid of a machine
Ohh, it's like 0.5 speed after new lexions
Got that right!!!!! 3.5 mph with a twelve row head! Ohhhhh we’re pushing 5000 bushels an hour with these things!!! Nope, it’s more like 2000 an hour as a realistic expectation of what these can do. Lexion destroys them.
