The process of harvesting is so fascinating to watch.
Probably one of your very best vids....THX!
Really enjoyed listening to you and the farmer, love that X9.
The X9 is a stand out combine.
Wow. They have an X9 1100 as well. What a beautiful machines. What dust. Farmers have to wait all year for this moment. Greetings to all farmers from my beautiful Texas. Respect to all of you. I know how hard work it is, I work on a farm myself. Excellent video. Thanks a buch
The X9 is an impressive combine.
@@bigtractorpower Yes. It makes an impression ...Regards from Texas
A john deere x9 with a shelbourne head, what an amazing combination!😄👍 awesome video👍👍
My friend has been using a Shelbourne for over 10 years and loves it. So many advantages to using one.
Saskatchewan Canada here. We have run Shelbourne Reynolds starting in 1996. Wouldn't harvest without them. We have no need for a million dollar combine. We use a jd 9650 walker combine. Lol
Very cool. The 9650 is a great combine.
Wow, amazing! Technology keeps advancing and these machines are the clearest proof. They are truly useful and full of potential!
Thanks for going over the downed wheat details. I was under the impression that a stripper header but have a harder time with wheat that had been down by weather but very clearly it handles it well.
The way the head works makes it effectively a very large squirrel-cage based sweeper.
The joy of harvesting must be so rewarding
On No-til: the last 4 years I farmed was with a Kinze planter and full Yetter no-til equipment including and especially cast iron closing wheels. I had such confidence. I observed that you couldn’t do any better seed placement with a scalpel and pair of tweezers! And that was way back in 2005!! Imagine what they’ve done in almost 20 years!!
I thought I commented on this video earlier. Guess not. Forgetful in my old age! Great video. Love these Shelbourne heads. So interesting how they work, yet how simple they really are.
Very knowledgeable videos explaining new methods of harvesting! Thank You. It's a shame that JD Corp can't keep it all in USA. The original man, John Deere was a Midwest US man, a blacksmith, who improved and designed the soft center moldboard plow system. That's how it all was born.
Another cool video big T 👍👍👍
The Shelbourne headers are awesome.
This is so relaxing. Thank you
Jason, I really enjoyed this video. X9's and wheat harvest. Doesn't get better than that. Only one grain farm around me runs a Shelbourne head. They have an X9 1100 as well.
Very cool. This was the first time that I was able to see a Shelbourne in action with an X9.
Very interesting especially the header and how useful it is for allowing new crop to grow through the still standing wheat stalks.
The stripper heads create a LOT of airflow on their own, imagine using one of those over-walkway blowers in a store as a leaf blower. These stripper heads produce a couple times that much airflow and you have to be careful with them or you can literally blow grain out the back of the combine... but they DO let you move faster through the field, reduce wear on the combine's own systems and as shown they suck the crop up and in and scrape the seeds off. The heads actually wear out faster than draper/auger headers do because the component that scrapes the seeds off does so because its a narrow V like claw and that wears out quickly and you cannot simply replace an individual claw. They are very very much worth using as a specialty condition harvester here and, shown over on Mike Less' channel, you can then also mow and windrow the straw for use/removal/sale in full length. When you use a mower in the opposite direction of the combine travel it lifts up the crushed stems as well.
I’ve never seen one of those heads in person but sure looks like it does a nice job. Very impressive operation and great video
Mike Mitchell was complaining to Ron from Hartung Family Farms about the turning radius of his new X-9. Ron is an engineer on the X-9 Combine design team.
If you go back, Ron shows how to adjust the turning radius so the X-9 turns tighter.
Great to watch all that modern equipment doing such a good job. Top video 👍. Regards from Down Under.
Excellent video, thanks.
I thought stripper heads were primarily used on the great plains so the tall stubble could catch snow in the arid climate. Neat to see them used in the Midwest. Would be interesting to see a yield comparison vs beans planted into short stubble. Retention of moisture due to the shading makes sense, but the beans are also shaded. Maybe it doesn't matter as much compared to spring planted beans due to the sun's angle in the summer. BTW, thanks for taking chaff to the face to show the before and after of the downed wheat.
In wheat season I get covered head to toe in chaff and carry home quite a bit of chopped straw inside my shoes. It’s worth it to get the close up views. The X9s really blast the straw out.
Interestingly, Western kentucky was the first location that stripper heads were sold in 1991 in the North America market. It was not until a few years later that they expanded into other regions. This area was eager to use them because of the double crop beans previously they had windrow the wheat and then use pick up heads to harvest it to get the double crop beans planted as early as possible. The stripper heads really sped up the season and also when they win road if you got a thunderstorm, then you’d have a lot of wet wheat on the ground.
Super💯video. As always.
That there is a combine
Thanks for the video sod buster.
Great harvesting.
Great video Jason
Thank you for watching.
great video, 💯
Thank you for watching.
عمل رائع والات جبارة وعمليه وقويه❤❤❤
Shelbourne based three miles from me in Suffolk, England
i remember in the late 90's when our first neighbour started using a Shelbourne header they had issues with wheel rims cracking under the weight of those headers but i imagine the tracks are well suited for the job
@@piperdoug428 modern draper headers are just as heavy as the shelbournes
@@TheFied09 well yeah the shelbourn were only 30ft and these drapers are up to 60ft now
Good brother
Thank you for watching. It is an interesting harvest.
I have to admit that I drop everything to watch a Shelbourne Reynolds header at work
I like to hear that kind of enthusiasm. They are really impressive to see.
Do a video on how the Shelbourne head works
I have an older video showing a Shelbourne up close at ruclips.net/video/ERhrLrb6iUo/видео.htmlsi=ChKonpMh4Nrbmutt
We have 2 Massey Ferguson 9540 combines and run a 40 foot agco draper in wheat and beans.
Our x9 has a 50' draper head and we cut to the ground to bale the straw.
Nice set up. The issue here for 2024 was ensuring the harvest of all the down wheat successfully and not having thick straw to drill soybeans into. Very little straw is baled in this region as the wheat residue helps the second crop of soybeans.
Good video.
Thank you Frank. It was a great day in the field.
Is there much harvest loss compared to a grain head?
👍👍
hi where is this field and how is the wheat crop this year did it grow good and pay good price , how many arcas is here and real dry crop thanks.
Big beast right there 👍👍. I’ve not seen any X9s here in my area in north central Indiana.
I guess 'cab corn' will always be a 'thing', regardless of the degree of sophistication on modern combines, lol.
@@jamesbarbour8400 gotta have cab corn lol 😆
@@Hinesfarm-Indiana guess so - you're not really pushing the performance envelope unless you get cab corn ! Or perhaps they just failed to alert the chaser wagon guy in time......
@@jamesbarbour8400 yep that’s true lol 😆
Another question that I have is there a difference between the quality of threshing that happens with the header versus the combine?
Also since the header is doing so much of the threshing does it save maintenance that otherwise would be required on the combine? Does that end up being cheaper?
Howdy bigtractorpower
Hi Tugboat. Thank you for watching.
We run a Claas 8900 on tracks here 15 miles north of London, England with a 12.3m Claas Convio header that has a flex knife which hugs the ground very well when you need to get low to pick up laid crops. The Convio header is a draper belt header, which is a big improvement over the conventional Vario header. It is perfect for picking up laid wheat like in your video here. Does the setup in the video use the stripper header for the soya beans too? If a regular header is used I imagine it would have to deal with the wheat straw going through the combine at that time?
Other than wheat or barley or similar type crops, what other crops can that header be used for if any? They are very cool to watch in wheat.
My neighbour here in England has one that he bought expressly for use on grass seed crops. Grass seed is really tough and slow with a regular header. He some times uses it on wheat. Saves fuel as not putting much volume through the combine and its quicker and saves wear on the combine.
I wonder how much of a performance advantage those stripper headers give the combines, versus ones with traditional headers.
With much less straw going through the machine, there shouldn't be quite so much wear and tear on the internal components.
@@jamesbarbour8400 up to 50% more acres/hour in my experience.
@@TheFied09 Wow ! That's quite the jump. Less wear and tear on many of the innards then, one would assume ?
Thank you for your reply.
@@jamesbarbour8400 you can load the machine right up to its power limit if you can keep losses under control. The reduced wear and tear is really only in the reduced number of hours to harvest the same number of acres.
First saw stripper head on demo in 1995 on harvest crew in Texas
Pretty cool. they first came to the United States in 1991.
What combine were you running them on back then?
@bigtractorpower it was a case ih 1666. The owner had 4 with 25 foot wheat heads. The stripper was on another crew's operation
🚜🚜
I wounder how you manage rodents when stripping wheat, because most bird wont hunt them high stubbles like in the Video. Besides that problem, I really like the idea of only harvesting the heads
How well do these heads harvest (strip) downed crop? Guess you answered that for me..... Nevermind.
I guess you need to be fairly wealthy these days to be a farmer, cost of the green machinery is on another planet...
Farm equipment is a major investment industrial sized equipment to meet tight planting and harvesting windows. This is a multigenerational farm with mainly family members running the equipment. I often think when I’m traveling on the interstate and see construction equipment lining a repair project or an expansion and I wonder how many people question the cost of the bulldozer scraper, greater or wheel loader sitting out there. Big machines equally big cost to get a job done.
👍👍👏👏👌👌🚜🚜
😁👍
I'm courious how 36' stripper header compares to 50' draper header
So, with all that standing straw, does the combine have to work extra hard when harvesting soy beans? I'm assuming beans have to be cut very low with drapper heads. Maybe because the straw has stood and weathered for a while, it might not be much of a burden overall?
Great question I’m sure the straw will be rotten or eaten by bugs before the next crop comes to harvest. Probably gonna be challenging managing that stubble
Serious question: with only a 36 ft header, and a stripper that does 80% of the threshing in the head, and very little straw going through the machine, why would anyone need anything bigger than a class 7 or maybe 8 combine. That seems like a really expensive carrying case for the header. Can someone explain? If Shelbourne would make a 60 ft stripper (and they ought to) it still wouldn't tax that combine.
You're 100% correct. However a combine is a multi crop machine. Those ones probably push 50 foot draper cutting beans and a 12 or 16 row corn head. They need the capacity for those crops.
@@ethanmoore8281 thank you. Good to know I'm not crazy, lol.
Also note ground speed compared to a draper head!
Shelbourne is a foreign owned company which means that profits are going out of our country.
An American company needs to be making 40, 50 and 60 foot stripper heads.
Agco used to make stripper heads but not any more. Maybe Shelbourne persuaded Agco to stop making them-1
Most of your tools are now made in Europe.....
Even the engine of thecjohn deere fourage machine are made in germany by lieber !@@John-nc4bl
Its time for an American owned company to be making 40, 50 and 60 foot stripper heads.
There needs to be competition against Shelbourne.
Shelbourne is the original. They have been selling these headers in the U.S. since 1991 from Kansas. AGCO offered Gleaner Massey stripper heads the late 1990’s and early 2000’s.
You cannot make copy like you will be please they have licence to protection there knoledges 😢
Those Shelbourne heads work great, too bad they didn't make them any bigger. It seems a bit of a waste on such a large powerful combine.
They offer a 42ft model. I have video on it at ruclips.net/video/ERhrLrb6iUo/видео.htmlsi=ChKonpMh4Nrbmutt
@@snekkerenp8036 in good conditions you can easily travel 8 mi/hr with the shelbourne
I run that fast with a 680 with stripping head
How come they don’t move the irrigation, to harvest that wheat under it?
They move it they harvest up to it and then they turn it on and start to move it and keep on harvesting. Pivots do not move very fast so by the time they finish the field, the pivot has moved off to the cleared area and then they go back and get the small amount that’s directly under the pivot.
Hi from Dexter🏠Missouri
Why is the buggy driving over the wheat why didn't they unload at the end of the field just sayin 🤔
You are wrong. The wheat is already harvested, and they are driving through what is standing standing straw
@IG10705 so why don't they cut the straw and bale it sell it if they don't use it ?
@@deancampfield4703 Often you're better off financially by leaving the residue to decompose and saving money on fertilizer than trying to bale and sell it. Standing straw like that would also be good for moisture retention
They’re leaving a lot of heads
It leaves every head. The Shelbourne just removes the grain. Everything else is left in place. It’s a great harvesting set up.
10% sobra na lavoura
Odd looking header for sure.
I don't see how they afford this equipment. Especially this farm.
Deere is woke. I won't be replacing my green equipment with green any more.
Yet no one cares if you do or not. Deere will still make money no matter what.
@IG10705 @IG10705 no they won't. They stand to lose just like other companies did just like bud light. Go woke go broke
@sew1194 you believe that? How many companies can you name that went under because they went woke? I highly doubt Deere will go under period. There's a ton of people and governments that buys them.
Bud light didn't even go broke. They just got called out for their BS and they only lost what 20 percent of their sales if that? That's not much to them.
What's hilarious is that people like you state "go woke go broke" and yet you still buy their products. 🤣🤣🤣
Ask me how I know that? I've seen people do it.
They literally just fired their DEI person and got rid of DEI. You aren't a very up to date MAGA person...are you?
@ThomasAnselmi1337 Maga or not. People don't pay attention to stuff period anymore. It's sad
