    Do you really think the world's largest and most profitable farm's haul combines over a wooden bridge like that?


    That's not even legal in Brazil or Argentina or Uruguay.

    Pretty sure that's somewhere in Africa...

      That's SF3!!!!!! During the flooding years....homemade bridge to cross a normally dry ravine.

      Sorry, I couldn't help myself, you can handle it!

          Regardless of where it is, I would like to know how they rescued the combines and trailer. Can't see any easy way to do it. Any link to where you found the pic? I tried a google image search but google thought it was a tree, reasonable assumption, they are green.

            See that would be my luck move to Brazil load up the machines and the dam bridge break.

            We just drive through water like that.

            Hahahah

              Ha, Pic is actually of saskfarmer moving north of the valley during a wet harvest. Had to build his own bridge cause government one washed out.

              He and a couple of neighbors salvaged some lumber from an old grain elevator. Luckily they bag everything cause there is no way that bridge would have stood up to hauling 1000s of tonnes of grain back over it!!!! Next time maybe try a stone crossing.

                    Some more fun facts on south america.

                    Brazil has 2,000,000km of roads under 10% are paved.

                    Canada has 1,000,000 km of roads just over 40% are paved

                    Argentina is 240000and 65000 so about 30%. Not bad

                    No wonder Brazil has huge issues moving product to ocean.

                      The first picture is a bridge in brazil. Must be on the frontier of farming.

                          I stand corrected...


                          No way that's legal. And just think about it... What do those machines weigh? Hauling two on 5 axles? Those tires would be ready to blow.



                          Mato grosso is the frontier of AG in Brazil by the way.

                              On Twitter this morning. Looks like they got it off the bridge whiteout any damage. Kory Melby tweeted it so yes Brazil
