Harvest 2019

[4course]

combine away in good time this morning no dew sunny with abreeze, ideal moisture 15.1 % out of combine tank ,driver shouting for trailer 1/2 way back up the field so that roughly means 1/3 more grain as usually we can get up and down its 3rd wheat just starting to lose the odd grain but not a panic situation

Dull again ... no wind .

Have you tried changing your diet?

17.5 percent. It's like the magic never drying wheat.

 

[Fish]

20% + late start

 

[Wombat]

Having some lunch then going for a look

 

[Manny]

Slow frustrating morning here wheat still between 17 and 19%. Would like to cut dry but need to get cutting. Even the neighbours big combine is moving a lot slower than yesterday and with very little dust.

 

[DRC]

Slow start here . Over 17% and pretty dull and humid

To counter some of the above, 14.9%@12pm
Just finished the seed wheat.

I realise we are very lucky to be getting on

 

[czechmate]

My store is taking load upon load of rejected shite , trying to spec it up a little

Do you do milling?

Fetched the combine out again today to fit trays for sunflowers. Strange being in it again, cereal harvest seems a distant memory.

Lets play moisture top trumps. I'll take your 14.9 and said you 13.8% at 1pm, acording to our trailer man.

 

[fingermouse]

Been going 3 hrs moisture down to 17. ,5 % from initial test of 19
It’s nice and sunny now with high cloud I am thinking we might see some dry stuff this afternoon Been 10 days now since we have had anything remotely near 15%

 

[mixed breed]

Back on binder, had more important stuff to do yesday.
Feels more like a proper combining day.
Planet, laid well, but coming off tidy

 

[teslacoils]

First load of sub 16 percent corn cut!

 

[Phil P]

After two weeks of crap weather and not cutting anything! finally got going again, spring barley 15.2% which considering the rain yesterday is quite surprising.

Wind and rain has taken its toll though

 

[Zippy768]

Off again after a shitty morning

 

[robbie]

Wheat sub 15%.

Diego second and continuous wheat doing close to 4 ton acre, mountains of lovely bright long straw and a nice bold sample. After reading all the stories on here about the super duper new varieties like gravity,gleam ECT I can't really see a need to change just yet.

 

[Wombat]

After 15 days we finally have a load in the 14’s

 

[bobk]

Do you do milling?

No , have enough trouble growing shite , saying that it's coming back at 13% protein
