    light stuff in the wind blows away before you get it loaded on semi.

    It was AC Brandon.


    But the low is 12.5 so far with a high of 13.7

        My AC Brandon is 14.8 pro, with the lack of good protein looks like mine will be sitting where it is.
        Yield was actually decent considering what transpired. It weighs 67.5 lbs

              No ice i turned the deal down.

              Why buy new S690s when the S790 has so many more decent things it can do. Just to have new iron sitting in my shed all winter and mine really don't have that many hours.

              So no Deal here.

              Mother corp needs to get their shit together and finally realize they priced them selves out of the market.

                They all have priced themselves into the stratosphere. All colours . But the need for new iron put the price there. Most Combines work just fine through 2000 hrs with a little maintenance

                  ......and people (especially me from my posts) think land is expensive. It may correct but unlike iron it doesn't depreciate over time to scrap metal prices!

                  Now to stay on topic....how pay for any of it with current commodity prices.....over a loooooong period of time! Or subsidize it with alot of paid-for dirt. Or just rent a bunch from an investor because in some cases its financially EASIER to rent than buy......given wheat prices!

                    Funny thing you bring up the how to pay for it.

                    Talked to a few bankers recently and some lease companies.

                    it seems most BTO have zero equity in their iron and like housing if the shit hits the fan it all crashes like the titanic.

                    Just saying\

                      Have to agree this protein issue is annoying. But they are finally paying for protein , many have complained for years that no real money for good protein .
                      But I agree its frustrating when you haul out of one bin , from one field and each load varies from 12.5 to 15 ..... off the same field that was even and had very little yield difference through out .
                      Some fields here had big fluctuations in yields from 35-90 due to moisture retention in the soil. In those cases you know there will be protein differences.
