Harvest season is upon us

[Matthew Arnold]

Bring it on. Been hauling ass since 7 this morning. Just stopped for a BBQ supper then back on it. So far we have hauled about 700 acres of wheat and rape. Two fields were "collected whole" due to them being organic fields which had pigs on last year so lots of Wild Oat, Poppies, Orache and lots of Bindweed.

 

Been using a New Holland T8. 390 all day. Had just been run in so could her some beans with a full load of grain up the many hills of Crichel Estate.

Just re-read your post,700 acres already cut, if your only using 1 combine and considering your cutting around 100 acres a day, man your harvest is early

Got 3 on the go. One New Holland CX 8080 and two New Holland CX 6090 on the go, 3 tractors per combine but 6 of the tractors are subbed in from a local firm complete with drivers. The combines are the estates. The rape has been ready for about 2 weeks now and in places was going flat on top of the hills so got them done first.

 

We had a Jag harvester doing the organic stuff. I arrived just as they finished the "small field".

Seems early for wheat most of its still green round my way in midlands. Seen the first combine today in OSR. Forecast for next week looks good so maybe see it get going in full swing. That will be the start of 3 meals a day out of a lunch box!!

On time if your whole cropping wheat I should think. if you was combing the ear for just grain then your lucky and early !
