3000 bph in corn is entirely possible with two 1000 bushel carts and a minimum of three semis if they don't have to haul far. We have combines available to us that will shell 5000 bph. The Lexion 580 is capable of that for a short time with a twelve row head if everything clicks right, and then there's the Lexion 590 which is even bigger.

If they sell out it's a pretty good guess they won't have much money to retire on unless they own a good amount of paid up land. Jim
