When I farmed I always thought that straight combining wheat was the most satisfying thing you could do......the hum of the machine as you went down the field, the gentle motion of the reel tipping the grain into the head and to see the clean grain coming out the auger.......seemed to make all the long hours worth it. I hope you have a good harvest this year Andy .......in these trying times it is good to know that some things are constant.....I'll be watching..
Hi Andy ! Beautiful weat and a lot of them ! i craq a big smile whit your buzzer going on , i driving bus for my living now and i have a lot of hours whit the buzzer going on . new technology carbage for me . Good job Charlotte ! Thanks Andy for your time and have a good day bud !
The part of the world where you live is absolutely beautiful. As a Brit, the one exception is that the power lines always look a bit low and thrown together. Good to see the combine back in action. Thank you Andy.
Seems to be a good success on grain harvest start. Thank you for sharing Andy. I truly enjoy watching all aspects of your day to day farming life. God Bless
When I was 20 I busted my neck. I was the 1 in a million quad. that got lucky enough to still be able to walk. It's a lot of work to walk, but I lived in the hospital for months with people that will never get a chance to even try to do it. I refuse to use a wheelchair because it would be an insult to them. When I was in college I had a friend that bought a mountain bike. It was such a cool looking bike, I begged my friend to let me at least try to ride it. So he was going to run along side holding me up. After some work to get me on it, we starter going and I pretty much just road away from my friend. I had no idea I could still ride a bike. I did what any son of loving parents would do. I hobbled inside, called my parents, and told them I could ride a 2 wheeler. They did what every loving parents would do, and bought me a new bike. I was in college when that happened and was a lot stronger then. I haven't ridden my bike for a long time. I wish they would have been making electric bikes when I was in college. Maybe mom & dad would have sprung for one of those.
Funny Andy, how when we get a bit older we get more cautious and less apt to run out and plug something or break something at the end of the day like you say who wants to unplug a combine in the rain! LOL
That buzzer sounds like a basketball game going on. 😂 Hope you're having fun, keep up the good wheat harvest and you'll actually know what your crop is after you got it all loaded, and frankly we don't care about other people's crops we just enjoy your show and the way you speak and talk thanks much
I worked as a "Cable Guy" in Boston, MA hanging the drop lines from the house to the pole and yes, I used a ladder against the house to pull the line tight. There is a trick to securing the line high enough but you need size and muscle. Being 6'3" at 240lbs and a avid gym rat, I had no issues pulling the lines tight. :-). Now much, muuuch older, a cherry picker would have been safer bet and easier. But Hey, I was Young, Dumb and Knew it all, right?
Andy can do a farmer buddy of mine the other day. I asked him on an average farming day in the summer when he’s driving a tractor or a combine down the road how often does somebody give him the finger because him and all the people that work for him get really impatient behind farm equipment and for some stupid reason they think it makes a difference to give somebody the bird. How often does that happen to you and even other people that you work with you
Good to see grain harvest started Andy. I can manage metric tonnes per hectare or tonnes per acre but I've never figured out what a bushel is. I need to learn to speak American lol
Take a old inner tube and bolt it to the hole in front of the draw pin and that should fix the problem of plugging up on the draw pin make sure it's a cut piece
It's been a good year for wheat, I would say. You can calibrate your monitor, or you can get the results from the scales . Either way I think you will be happy with the numbers. I love it that your daughters are right there and working! Not picking on the boys, but the young ladies prove themselves up to the tasks . Raising the bar for Andrew. A tough spot for him (been there, done that!) But he will be a better man for following them!
I used to work for the tv cable company here in Cedar Rapids, IA before I started driving trucks. When you cross the road, there is alot of weight on that drop. It's impossible to get it straight. Besides the cold and hot weather makes it stretch and contract. And the center conducter (copper part) would also stretch and contract. So either you had tv, or no tv, or pulled the hook and siding off a house.
Nice to see Charlie in the film. to bad we didn’t get a driving with Charlie and a sister episode 😂 they sure to give you a laugh. I heard Wheat was up 18% hopefully you get in on that Andy.
Love the explanation of having the field view. Most people won't understand taking the same data on 2 screens, but I totally get exactly what you mean lol. Just easier to disect the information for future use compared to deere platform in our life. Also you better stay out of the Labatt blue if your going to hit that grain cart later in the evening! 😅
I’m curious if y’all ever took any of those wires down? Where I worked we had a roll off driver come in with stumps over loaded and took down wires for over 5 miles. He never noticed. 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
I have the exact same combine. I watched a video a while back and thought it might be you showing a paper slide chart on the settings for a 9560. Was that you? and if so would you have the part number to that thing? Every year I have issues getting everything set right just wondering what the chart says.
When i worked for john deere we would just cut the wire to the horn so you could still see your warning lights but not hear the horn till we could fix the problem
I'm use to cutting wheat in Kansas so just a question; Is there any reason you run the header so low? Also the reel to me looked like it was low also. I'm amazed at the /acre you are getting we're use to around 30-40/acre. Thanks.
Put the drawbar pin in upside down, and add flat washers or some other spacer between the pin keeper and tongue. That will put the extra pin length up, out of the way of the wheat windrow.
Try putting some bubble gum over the alarm speaker. It's been done before with catastrophic results like on a railroad engine. But you should be OK with just the warning lights.
Hey there, Hollywood. I hope this finds you well? 🙏 So your wheat is good, but your corn is not so good. Have you had the insect damage on other farms, or is it just this one? 🐛 Your Combine seems to still be pretty quiet inside, especially for its age. I hope you have a good one! "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌 👍 🇺🇲
I'm sure ask every year but have you ever looked at putting wheat in your ration? Had a nutrionist that was trying to talk into growing wheat and running thru hammer mill to use along with or instead of high moisture corn.
Charlie was near an unshielded PTO shield on the grain buggy. I bet the tractor was running. Your PTO sheild management is an accident waiting to happen.
Your farm is very great!!! Don't have problems!!! And have a very great day!!!
Great job combining Andy

nobody here believes in that god shit, please keep your creepy religious cult rubbish off the channel
Just got done cutting hay. Time to take a break and watch my favorite youtube channel!
I love the exhaust stack on the tractor. 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Great video Andy📹🚜Wheat is looking good,all the best with combining this year🌾🌾🌾🌾

Wheat looks great hope you dont get too much rain, nice to see charlotte working in the fields enjoyed the video andy thanks.
Finally someone that got rid of the stupid buzzer. They made them a bit excessive to go off for every single little thing.
I always loved Harvest. Enjoy you taking us with ye.
The ole Deere combine still getting it done. 💪🏻💪🏻 As always thanks for the footage Andy!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great stuff Andy and Co. as always great video and great family…God Bless y’all 🇺🇸💪🏻🇺🇸
Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊😊
You are doing good job Andy I love you’r talking about everything you are doing keep up the good work and have a wonderful evening.
Funny Andy, how when we get a bit older we get more cautious and less apt to run out and plug something or break something at the end of the day like you say who wants to unplug a combine in the rain! LOL
Not bad, looking wheat, Andy‘s at least the combine working good
Allways fun to combine. Have a good day Andy
Tks for sharing Mr Andy. Would have been nice to hear from Miss Charlie with some Buggy chat. Hope you have a sussful wheat harvest.. Good Luck.
Awesome video thanks Andy top job top team 👍🚜🚛🚜🚛🚜🚛
Do you own that round roof barn? I love that style barn. Mud flap under tractor drawbar need. Glad the yield is good for you.
Man , I miss Charlie talking , but we understand she is busy , stay safe , enjoy !
She's a little spit fire. She's got a mouth on her. 😂😂
It's great seeing videos of wheat harvest!
Hello! I just watched your video, it's very good, thank you for sharing, have a good day. ❤
Getting er dun. Great video. Thanks Andy.
That buzzer sounds like a basketball game going on. 😂 Hope you're having fun, keep up the good wheat harvest and you'll actually know what your crop is after you got it all loaded, and frankly we don't care about other people's crops we just enjoy your show and the way you speak and talk thanks much

Andy you gotta give Charlotte the camera her commentary is hilarious!
Andy can do a farmer buddy of mine the other day.

Good video 👍 some corn better than no corn. It looked good from here
Very good video. Thanks for the combine ride.
Old combine tells ya when she’s tough and gives ya the grunt growl…… time to head in and rinse the chaff out of places unknown 👍 great content
Your gonna be hearing that damn buzzer in your sleep. Wheat looks great sir.
Good to see grain harvest started Andy. I can manage metric tonnes per hectare or tonnes per acre but I've never figured out what a bushel is. I need to learn to speak American lol
Good looking wheat.
You go girl! Good start Andy.
From what I see you got some good looking corn
Nice to see the wheat harversting getting done.
Wheat is looking good.i enjoyed the video.
Take a old inner tube and bolt it to the hole in front of the draw pin and that should fix the problem of plugging up on the draw pin make sure it's a cut piece
Good luck combining your wht andy
My Brother rapped a feed bag around the drawbar of the tractor and the baler and tied it there because it was dragging straw, you could try that.
Thank you Andy👍
It's been a good year for wheat, I would say. You can calibrate your monitor, or you can get the results from the scales . Either way I think you will be happy with the numbers.

Dealing with them roads would be a nightmare.
Looks like really good wheat.
I used to work for the tv cable company here in Cedar Rapids, IA before I started driving trucks. When you cross the road, there is alot of weight on that drop. It's impossible to get it straight. Besides the cold and hot weather makes it stretch and contract. And the center conducter (copper part) would also stretch and contract.

Thanks Andy,nice video!
You did good job and Charlotte is doing great job 👏 well done you are smart girl princess that is what you are
Is there a magnet somewhere in the system that will catch that hardware from the unloader before it gets to the cows?
No, it won’t bother them being that it’s just a bolt…. As along as it ain’t sharp
Nice to see Charlie in the film. to bad we didn’t get a driving with Charlie and a sister episode 😂 they sure to give you a laugh.
I heard Wheat was up 18% hopefully you get in on that Andy.
Do you have to explain things in basketball terms to Charlotte for her to understand it better? She’s smart, she will figure it out.
Good video 👍🚜
When it comes to yields they always say the first liar doesn't stand a chance. Nice looking wheat .
Love the explanation of having the field view. Most people won't understand taking the same data on 2 screens, but I totally get exactly what you mean lol. Just easier to disect the information for future use compared to deere platform in our life. Also you better stay out of the Labatt blue if your going to hit that grain cart later in the evening! 😅
You're doing good with the work load but you really should get some sand between your toes for a few days 😊
Great video Andy
I would be willing to bet that young lady was letting some farmer language go when she seen that pile of straw under that drawbar LoL 😂😂😂😂
179 bushel half acre is some good stuff I will drank to dat 👍👍👍👍👍👍🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🚜🚜🚜🚜
We just have to deal with the noise :) - Did not expect so much yield from that field, clearly i not have the eye for it.
I’m curious if y’all ever took any of those wires down? Where I worked we had a roll off driver come in with stumps over loaded and took down wires for over 5 miles. He never noticed. 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Old school is still the best school.❤😊
I have the exact same combine. I watched a video a while back and thought it might be you showing a paper slide chart on the settings for a 9560.

When i worked for john deere we would just cut the wire to the horn so you could still see your warning lights but not hear the horn till we could fix the problem
But when you exaggerate yields that’s when you get the ginormous grain carts and the other cool toys
Whay sort of a milking system do you use?
Funny hows the years differ. Wasn’t this farm the last one you did last year?
I'm use to cutting wheat in Kansas so just a question; Is there any reason you run the header so low? Also the reel to me looked like it was low also. I'm amazed at the /acre you are getting we're use to around 30-40/acre. Thanks.
Dairies want every inch of straw they can cut
Put the drawbar pin in upside down, and add flat washers or some other spacer between the pin keeper and tongue. That will put the extra pin length up, out of the way of the wheat windrow.
Looks like a very good wheat crop
Try putting some bubble gum over the alarm speaker. It's been done before with catastrophic results like on a railroad engine. But you should be OK with just the warning lights.
Do you feed wheat to the cows Andy or just sell it and use the straw for bedding?
Hey there, Hollywood. I hope this finds you well? 🙏
So your wheat is good, but your corn is not so good.
Have you had the insect damage on other farms, or is it just this one? 🐛
Your Combine seems to still be pretty quiet inside, especially for its age.
I hope you have a good one!
"Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌 👍 🇺🇲
Give Charlotte the cam for a segment.
Corn looks prerty good to me Andy , but then again im no cornstar.
😂😂
I'm sure ask every year but have you ever looked at putting wheat in your ration? Had a nutrionist that was trying to talk into growing wheat and running thru hammer mill to use along with or instead of high moisture corn.
we also had wires in the air in the stone age hehe
👍
Andy are you going to upgrade your combine?
No
Been there on my 9550 gets really annoying when it never shuts up.
185 bushels an acre is very good.
That buzzing is gotta be driving you bonkers
Andy how many Acres of wheat do you have this year?
Will you get some custom help again this year
How about a Gleaner.
Thanks Andy
Oh how I miss combining oats and corn
Pffft.....my tinnitus cancels out that annoying buzzer........no problem....
How come you don’t put two-way radios in your machinery or have a two-way radio on W will be better for your trucks
Charlie was near an unshielded PTO shield on the grain buggy. I bet the tractor was running. Your PTO sheild management is an accident waiting to happen.
Can you put beans behind them or is growing season too short
He plants wheat so he has somewhere to put the cow poop. Not to double crop.
I’m guessing it goes alfalfa. Fall planting is what we used to do .
I’m surprised you don’t have two way radios of some sort
What model combine ?
