Don't care how ya cut it that is a lot , 3-5 seeds in a square foot they call good . I know that my little OLD Massey 300 did a fine job and you had to look real hard to find 3-4 kernels in a sq .ft. header loss depending on dryness ran 2-3 . I had less loss then the guy with the 6600 Deere . And this came from the people that he use to combine for and the grain samples were far better off the Massey then the Deere . I ended up with all his custom work when his combine went down due to a Error on his part when he was rushing and stuck the wrong fuel hose in the tank and filled it with gas and not diesel . It started off with just going to a neighbors place and run 84 acres and the word went out that i was doing a great job . I finished that one and was cleaning the combine when another guy asked if i would do his that was 102 acres then 74 then 90 and it snow balled . Doing two rows at a time ya get lots of seat time and learn a lot about how to make the adjustments . Some guys really don't take a few stops and a few min.s they got to go and rely on the fancy sensors and computer . They run with the new fangled chopping heads down almost on the ground Feeding in more plant matter so they can chop the stalk shorter . Around here we had to worry about ROCKS and i still found one , a wedge shaped setting behind a stalk standing a foot and a half tall . Crop conditions can change and setting have to change to keep loss down .

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
