Farming Video | First Loads of Corn Harvest with a Brand New Cart

24 Sep 252m 0s

Kelly Garrett and his son Cael are kicking off corn harvest and breaking in their new Demco 1300-bushel grain cart. It’s Day 1 of harvest, Load 2, and they’re already seeing the benefits of the right-hand unload setup—better visibility, smoother operation, and way less chance of spilled corn. Kelly walks through the control system, the iPad-linked scale setup, and all the little things that are making a big difference already. It’s a quick look at a piece of gear that could change the game on busy harvest days.

00:00:00 Kelly Garrett from Extreme Ag Day number one of corn harvest load number two with our new Demco 1300 bushel cart. 00:00:10 She's talked to us about this control. Let me unload before we can do anything here. It's the right hand unload cart. I gotta say 00:00:17 Little unused to that. I'm not gonna lie. The visibility of the auger though, it's right there. Yeah, 00:00:22 No, that's handy. I don't know why they didn't put the augers on the right hand side all the time. 00:00:26 I imagine you can open it up wide open, but we're not there yet. Can you show the, uh, show the controls on the screen 00:00:36 Open and close on the door, obviously, and then just auger in and out and back here. I've got a trigger that will raise 00:00:43 and lower the auger, so that's kind of cool. But The, it doesn't fold the auger. It raises and lowers the whole thing. Yeah, 00:00:48 It raises and lowers the whole, the whole set of auger. And then right here I can swivel my, uh, spout any direction up, down side to side. Yeah. 00:00:58 I don't like it when the corn hits the, uh, strap because it bounces out of there. Yeah, No, this is, I can dump from anywhere now. 00:01:03 We'll be unloading on the road like nothing either. This would be a way, way better deal. No reason to spill corn now. 00:01:10 Vern could even do this without spilling corn. No, I was gonna say, I bet Vern could spill corn on this. I was just about to say that. 00:01:17 We're not going down with a half load, that's for sure. Come on now. There we go. Half a semi loaded. How long, how long is the video? 00:01:30 Two minutes. There You go. Two minutes. The truck's ready. We're out of here. So then you got the iPad over here with the new scale system 00:01:37 that, uh, Demco helped us line up as well. Yeah, no, this is really nice. We got the truck where we're going. All of our bushels. 00:01:46 Everything's set. We got records now that we can actually keep track of What field it's coming out of, 00:01:50 what truck it's going into in the destination. Besides the scale. It's all on there. Yeah. 00:01:55.455 --> 00:01:56.985
