[QUOTE="warksfarmer, post: 7720821, member: 192"] I see very inefficient 🤷🏻♂️. You’ve still got a corn cart driver and you’ve still got a combine operator. The ‘combine’ might be cheaper but look how much slower it’s going and how little it’s actually cutting compared to a 35ft proper combine. Even if there was modern versions of this contraption you still ‘need’ a driver. Clive’s trying to work around labour not machinery so this kind of setup won’t help his quandary. He probably needs 2 or 3 contractors that will cut and cart so his staff can be in the yard putting the grain into the sheds whether directly or via the drier. 3 contractors cutting on the same day would see in excess of 200ac harvested assuming they are all running machines cutting 70 ish ac per day.
