    I’m going to readjust canola to 18.98 mt from my earlier as canola yields look 60 plus and harvest not hitting those numbers. Dry areas some not over 9 bpa. It’s a recovery but no bumper. Heat in July aborted flowers.

    WHEAT HAS FUZZ and Ergot problems and yields 40 and up not 60 and up.

Looking like a small day today with the fog heavy this morning.
      We had that also happen to our cart, the upper auger had a rubber torsion damper that stripped out and under heavy wheat it would slip and backlog the grain. Im not sure what kind of cart you have but ours was a 2012 brent.

        Our cart in a 1282 Brent, after getting it all,welded up again we spent hours trying to get the auger back into the tube. This auger has the 22” intake and then goes to 20”. we spent hours pounding with a sledgehammer to get it back down the tube. I was ready to throw in the towel but son in law finally got it pounded down after supper last night, so we’re back harvesting with a cart again. After not having a cart for 2 days you realize how productive it is.

        The 9.9 has good capacity, probably about 10% more than the red 9230 that I drive. We’ve had it for 3 years now and I still haven’t driven it in the field yet. Well another short day last night, by 7:00 we were chewing wheat at 2 mph and all 3 machines were grunting. Hopefully we can get out there by noon today.

          Better check out this torsion, put one mark on the flighting and one on the coupler and use it a while and check to see if the marks are still lined up. If not the rubber is torn out in the coupler and it will put a ton of pressure on your lower flightings and gearbox.

              About half that, but it rained the whole day.

                      Sure would be interesting to see a 10.9 run against the x9 in your big crop country in wheat and canola

                        Doesn’t the larger portion separate at the bottom with a big bolt? Other carts are that way

                          You might be right, sure would feel stupid if that’s the case. At least I wasn’t the one on the the sledgehammer.

                            Guys who worship John Deere green always make me laugh, as soon as they spray the green paint on something they think it is special and different. New Holland was the first with twin rotors, certainly still the most affordable way to get two rotors imo.

                              From experience, JD's conventionals are the only way to go in forages.

                              They are built to handle tough conditions.

                                if you are green here , you hasta keep a 9400 in the shed to do forages
                                the case, massey and NH all do it fine
                                but those 9400's were a good machine
