[QUOTE="laoisfarmer, post: 4304704, member: 928"] After a difficult harvest combine capacity is up in the air . We currently run two 6 walker deutz's with 20ft cuts ,a 4075 and a 5690. While both good combines we are starting to think that one big combine might be a better option. Main reasons being staff issues and output , we loss one valuable driver during the busy period. It can be easier to get a tractor driver than a combine driver, we currently don't side fill which slows down operations. One good operator keeping a large combine moving the whole time would be a better option. One combine frees up trailers and drivers allowing side filling and maybe more output. Rotary is not an option so looking at either a large new Holland cx 8070-8090 or maybe a new model or a class 670. Head width would be a maximum width of 25ft as straw is very valuable with use and wider heads make straw harder to get dry. Any options and opinions on above combines are welcome. Tia [/QUOTE]
