00:00
So guys we're in here today, Matt Miles, lane Miles, uh, father and son, operation DHA County with extreme ag.
00:00:07
Doing some comparison on a combine's midseason. So, uh, we had a really early year this year. We cut beans really early.
00:00:13
We started, um, about the third week of July. Once we got about midway and we wanted to sit down and kind of see what the S seven 800 looked like compared
00:00:23
to the, to the uh, S seven 80. Uh, basically a new combine, new features, uh, lot better data.
00:00:30
Mm-hmm. Um, lot of different features that you'll see on on future video. So what we're doing here, so we add the seven 80
00:00:37
and the S seven 800. We probably compared 'em more in soybeans than we did any other crop and also some in rice that we'll, uh,
00:00:45
we'll we'll use 'em some in rice that we'll see at the same time. But as mid-season, um, you know,
00:00:50
we were cutting these early soybeans, we're able to compare the two and I'm gonna turn over lane lanes of data guy and we've got some pretty, pretty
00:00:59
exciting results, what we've seen so far. Yeah, so right now we've compared, uh, one s seven eight hundred and two seven eight s seven
00:01:09
eighties and it said 160 acre block. Just trying to kind of hone down to kind of find our best, best data.
00:01:14
Once a year goes on, we'll do it in bigger blocks, but, uh, right now when you're looking at 'em, the S seven eighties picked up, you know,
00:01:21
just about a half an acre an hour just in initial initial use. Uh, it actually picked up two acres an hour over one,
00:01:29
one machine and we're also looking at about two tenths of the gallon per acre of fuel savings. Then just as far as like your, you know, gallons per hour,
00:01:40
it's the same thing or saving there as well. Um, our throughput versus one mach one machine was roughly about the same.
00:01:47
The other one, um, the, the machine that was running a little bit slower, obviously we have a little bit more throughput there,
00:01:53
so we feel like we're gaining a little bit of little, little faster cutting. Um, hopefully through the year, we'll we'll get it tuned in
00:02:01
and, and be able to get it going a little bit more. Um, and then as far as like getting out behind the machine, you know, getting past, you know, a computer screen.
00:02:09
I mean things look really good behind, behind the combine. I mean, you don't, we don't find as much,
00:02:14
obviously we're gonna find some, but we don't find as much behind the combine and uh, looks like we got a pretty clean tank as well.
00:02:21
Well, and, and looking at the, you know, the biggest deal to me on the fuel efficiency is that, you know, it,
00:02:25
there's 68.3 bushels per gallon with the S seven 800 versus about 61 bushels per gallon with the seven 80.
00:02:36
Right. So you're looking at, you know, six or seven bushels per gallon. Right. That adds up to a lot of money,
00:02:42
especially where it fuels at today. Yep. This Is just kind of the initial run of what the S seven eight hundred's been doing so far
00:02:49
what we see we like, they'll be side by side in the rice, not sure there'll be so much side by side in the corn.
00:02:55
We've got the S seven 800 set up, mo mo mainly to do the corn because of the tires. We got tracks on the other machines,
00:03:02
so they'll cut more in a heavy clay ground. Corns are better ground, so we'll put the tire machines there, but we'll be back with you at the end of the year,
00:03:09
be able to show you kind of what these combines did 00:03:11.795 --> 00:03:14.525
