  • @kevinnorsworthy3926
    @kevinnorsworthy3926 2 года назад

    There is something satisfying about watching the corn being eaten up by the combine. Just the shear volume of material being consumed. Even as a kid I would ride the old Massey with my uncle .Probably explains my poor hearing now. Used to have nightmares about about trying to keep trucks empty to stay ahead of two combines. Other than extreme cost any reason why you guys never bit the bullet and put up an elevator and some big bins? Good luck with harvest.

      Nope. We have farmed around them all for so long that we know where they are. Of course, we also pay attention as we go through the fields! All of our inlets are the orange/yellow ones that are 2-3’ tall, so they are hard to miss.

    @gavinburkett5829 2 года назад +1

    So I’m not trying to tell y’all how to run your operation by all means. Everyone has reasons for everything but just going to put my opinion out. To me it seems like y’all would be more efficient with a 12 row on your 780 since your trucks can’t really keep up or what’s yalls opinion on that. I know a 12 row head is expensive but it would have to be cheaper than 2 8s and the cost of running 2 combines

    • @aTrippyFarmer

      I think you are right. We will make the switch sometime. It’s just painful to trade up for a folding twelve row… they’re expensive! Appreciate the comment!

    At what point does a complete grain bin system make sense and how much capacity and cost
    ?

    • @aTrippyFarmer
      @aTrippyFarmer  2 года назад

      Anything can make sense if you are a believer in it. Grain storage in general is a good investment. Adding a leg and a drier is another worthwhile venture if that is a direction that you’d like to take your farming operation. It’s more of a capital allocation decision and less of an efficacy thing. I think we will add something within the next 5-10 years to the main bin site. I’d like to put up a few more bins in the meantime.
