Matt, if it'll make you feel better, my harvest body count was as follows.....transmission in one semi, clutch in another, 18 semi tires, a new hood for semi, complete exhaust system on another, 8295r fan came apart and went thru radiator, complete 30 ft. pcutterbar replacement, straw chopper bearings, 4 roller bearings on baler picker, main drive roller on module broke in half, one roll of wrap wasted, reader problem, and last but not least inside dual replacement on picker. 😮
This is what I like about you Matt, you offer a different perspective. I've often complained that ours is an industry where no matter what it costs to produce, middlemen determine our price. The perspective of always having a market is not one I have contemplated. It's the biggest reason I "listen" to what you have to say... it's always a contribution.
I’ve rented that style drill from our NRCS office on a couple of occasions. One time I fought that same issue. Of course, they store it outside and the previous user obviously left some seed in there.
All ways the farmers gets screwed. That’s a dam shame they not taken your soybeans at that little damage. Praying it gets better for you buddy cause farmers feed me and the world!! From La!!😁🙋🏼♂️👍
Lol! Matt I would be scared if something wasn't wrong when I started cutting. Dad always said a combine was one piece of equipment that could sit in the shed with no battery in it and still wear out sitting there. This year has been tough. We didn't get a single drop of the first hurricane and not much of Helene. This was our driest year I can remember in a while! Honestly surprised our beans did as good as they did. That's another reason I think we are sticking with pioneer. Seems like they have better holding ability. We have grown other "brands" in the past that the pods split or was so thin any rain at all late doomed them. Havent seen much of that in pioneer yet. Even when we did get rain. Sounds like Tyson will be in short supply of beans if they expect to get damage free beans around here this year!
Matt I work for a large phone company on the emergency generator. I have over a hundred if them to kept up with. There set at 140°. And are supposed to start and produce power within three minutes. It never fails every week companywide all generators start Tuesday at 10 and there's always five or 10 broke. How?
Listen buy you a John Deere grain drill cover hell i just got a new one off shoup I only take it off when I fill up but if I do take it off and leave it off I’m forever making sure it doesn’t rain
I am surprised you don't spin spread the cover crop and lightly disc in to help with residue and incorporate seed to soil. Tyson has put a hurting on farmers pulling the rug out from underneath them with no warning.
@@griggsfarmsllc We had someone use both of our 1590's one fall that we had at the time. They decided to pressure wash them before then brought them back... there was a whole lotta rotten and germination going on in the tubes and a whole lot of cussing and cleaning when we got them out the next spring. Then they couldn't believe we got upset the washed them they said you gotta keep them looking good i said looking good has nothing to do with getting the job done when they're staying clogged up. I didn't think we would ever get them right again. A good heavy dew in 8 to 12 inches of grass pasture is enough to make you pull your hair out
@@88power73 yeah I made that same mistake the first year I owned a drill. One reason I’m half bald now is lol. Now when I pressure wash I run a water hose down each seed tube to make sure everything is flushed out. No problems since.
Only occupation you'll ever have that when you get ready to sell...you have to ask how much will you give me, and when you're ready to buy something....how much is it going to cost me.
@@griggsfarmsllc I understand but I didn't care about the bushel count per say. I was just wondering if it's really a noticeable difference in yield between conventional tillage year after year vs.no till.
@@jeffwilliams3642 I understand what you’re saying but considering I let the public know what my yields are, if I were to say if they were higher or lower, folks could extrapolate what this farmer was yielding approximately and I definitely don’t think it’s my place to do that.
@@griggsfarmsllc I understand. I'm looking forward to seeing if you get much of a noticeable yield bump from your ripped cotton ground. If you can get a chance could you pull up a cotton plant that has been harvested from a ripped field and one from an u ripped field? I'm curious to know how the roots will have grown.
Too much supply, elevators are picky. Might have to bin those beans separately and wait for a year of low available supply. We usually have to haul a lot of grain 50 miles one way... sometimes only 20 miles one way. Some elevators too grade everything so differently (and some sleezy). Same field, same crop, same sample, one elevator came back with 4% dockage, another 0.5%. Stupid really 🤣
Red always break down in shop silver in middle of no where, green they just burn up ! Yellow never gets out of show room ! But you got nice looking combine when not in shop .
It's not everyone it's just you it's you and everybody else with a red machine😅 Just joking but I have to poke back at all The john deere haters every now and then.
if every thing was peachs /creamevery body his brother would be farming next yr will be better im bitter about farming the way farmers are taken to cleaners i did it 40 yrs worked at gm if i had it to do over i never would have farmed just bought land and rented itout cash rent is pretty good now so you dont have to buy a jd junk tthat they wont let you work on
Our local Tyson hasn’t taken any corn for 3.5 weeks. Right in middle of harvest. They are getting corn from Ohio on rail. They don’t care about local growers.

Love your combine, regardless!!!
You're both good!!!
Glad to see the yields not affected too much by the adverse weather conditions.

Amen on the no calls! Never a good call like, hey I bought you're lunch, it's the dang equipment is on fire! Hahaha 😂
Like your videos we have the same problem with ugly beans in southern Ohio we was very dry and then got 11 inches of rain sucks
Our beans arnt damaged. They are really purple. It just looks like damage from a distance.

Bent the rim some was only a matter of time before the tire started leaking
I have a truck setting in my barn and the fuel pump did not work when I got ready for soybean harvest
Not only you.. had a water pimp go out and several batteries in the last wee
So what happens to the rejected beans?
Have to haul to a grainary that will accept them
Awesome Video as Always!!!
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck .I just wake up every morning at keep on keeping on. All I know
Listen buy you a John Deere grain drill cover hell i just got a new one off shoup I only take it off when I fill up but if I do take it off and leave it off I’m forever making sure it doesn’t rain
It’s always something when it comes to farming. It’s been a fun year🙄
Good video

Never grown cotton or ever been around it but that looks like some amazing cotton. Can you do a video on how a picker works?

You are not the only one
Take the whole seed tube out and get a clothes hanger and your air hose maybe a hammer for tapping quickest way to clean it
I did. Nothing would get it out. It was caked in

my breaks down in the barn
just the nature of thinks
How is your cotton yielding ?
Is hybrid rye a viable grain crop in your area
The only market for rye in this area is as a cover crop
Matt you can go over everything from asshole to appetite and still have problems😂😂😂 I know I do
It figures cause with farmin if it can go wrong it's just a matter of time and sometimes it just hits all at the same damn time
Hello! No you are not the only one...

“The farmer is the only man in our economy who buys everything at retail, sells everything at wholesale, and pays the freight both ways.”
I really don't understand what you're talking about the deer poop in the wheat and soybeans because all those elevators have Rat Shit in them
Does the person you did the custom harvest for do no till like you? If they do conventional tillage was there a noticeable difference in the yield?
Yes they no till. I’m not going to speak to their yields. It’s not my business to say
@@griggsfarmsllc I understand but I didn't care about the bushel count per say. I was just wondering if it's really a noticeable difference in yield between conventional tillage year after year vs.no till.

Nope you are not the only one. Stupid stuff like that happens all the time. Leave it long enough and it's called lot rot.
Lot rot…I like that! 😂
No you’re not! Sometimes we have to work on crap just to work on crap! lol.
And repairs are not something you can accurately budget for!
No it happens all the time
Red always break down in shop silver in middle of no where, green they just burn up ! Yellow never gets out of show room ! But you got nice looking combine when not in shop .
It's not everyone it's just you it's you and everybody else with a red machine😅 Just joking but I have to poke back at all The john deere haters every now and then.
My son in law has 3 2024 s780's and they are junk worse combines I ever seen, these combines only worked 1 day out of 3 weeks
They are John Deere combines
That's Tyson for ya Smh
Cotton Bruh
if every thing was peachs /creamevery body his brother would be farming next yr will be better im bitter about farming the way farmers are taken to cleaners i did it 40 yrs worked at gm if i had it to do over i never would have farmed just bought land and rented itout cash rent is pretty good now so you dont have to buy a jd junk tthat they wont let you work on
You’re not the only one.
Nope, absolutely not!
Get the farmers to toot the horn when everyone passes Tyson when they aren't getting any grain they will beg I hate Tyson
Our local Tyson hasn’t taken any corn for 3.5 weeks. Right in middle of harvest. They are getting corn from Ohio on rail. They don’t care about local growers.
First your money, then your clothes...
call trump
You talk to much.
Then go read a book.
Too much whining.
Then go watch another channel.
Thanks for helping the algorithm.
