Harvest/Yields 2020

[Two Tone]

If @Brisel is where I think he is now, he is in pretty decent farming country. A lovely part of the world!
My wife is from the Thirsk / Northallerton / Bedale area and I would happily want to farm in that area.

 

[Brisel]

Bit of a difference to your old stamping ground!
My wife comes from North Yorkshire.
What brand of Combine do you have up there?

NH 9080 and a 9.90

 

[lloyd]

It must have been the choice of combines that swung the deal!

Sorry this is probably in the wrong place but after a bit of advice chaps got a fair bit of skyfall this year possibly milling if it makes spec but never bothered with milling wheat before .
Question been what’s the max temp I can run the drier at .Its a farm fan continuous flow and normally runs about 140c
cheers

I run a batch drier but burner temp was set at 110c, all went for milling no issues this year

Yesterday we cut a block of 1st wheat diego after osr and its our best so far at a conservative 3.75t/ac, bushel of 78 and 7 5ft rounds an acre.
It's just a shame it's not all been like that.

Were going to have a go at some spring barley today rather than bring the combine home to do wheat then back again for barley.
Dont think its fit but we'll have a go.

And you think you're a light land farmer!!

 

[robbie]

And you think you're a light land farmer!!

We are light land but likely we haven't got to much sand land most of ours is sandy loam.
The bit of real sand land(sand and flintin equal quantities) only did about 30cwt/ac but likely that was only 9 acres.

Not sure what you mean?

 

[Zippy768]

Finished Wheat today

Only 2 blocks we managed to drill.
Guesstimates 4.5t/acre and 3.6t/acre and lots of straw.
Very pleased, just a shame we only drilled under 50% of what was planned.
Spring barley next.....ranging from not at all fit to not quite fit.

Has this thread been hacked by Farmers Weekly ?

Not like down the old place where you could always get extra combines at the drop of a hat . Mind if you pay the haulage anything is possible . You are better to have 2 NH combines than them things that self combust at the sight of sunshine . Hope all is going well up north . Dec drilled gleam cut today has done just over 10 ton ha. very pleased with that . Sb on our worst ground 5- 5.2 ton ha on better ground 6.5 ton ha . w beans that we cut so far 4 - 4.5 tons ha .

Please can you come and guesstimate mine when you’re finished?

 

[shakerator]

Spring wheat here 4th cereal 4t/ha

 

[DRC]

Tried my Costello after maize, but it ain’t quite fit, as it was testing 18.5%, although we did have foggy, mizzle until lunchtime .
Not drying it from that, so parked up for now.

 

[7610 super q]

Moisture dropped from 18.5 > 15.6 in the last few hours. (SB). Still too many green heads about though for my liking.
