The Best Wheat Harvest Video on KZhead
I recently spent a weekend in Colorado filming some 2021 winter wheat harvest for my KZhead channel. Here is one of the farms I filmed at. Poss Farms is a family farm operation near Hugo Colorado. In this video I explain the entire operation.
I’m elderly lady of 76 and this is a refreshing change to watch these videos in place of hustle & bustle of people arguing. I just happened to find this one day & now I’m watching all the time. 👏
If your studying farming, this mike is the best way to start, thank you Mike, thank you farmers god bless.
Love this video. Being a girly girl, many are shocked to learn I love combines. This video is impressive. Beautiful farm equipment!
From a baker and a pasta maker, thanks everyone for what you do to feed us all. Farmers and Ranchers are the best

Beautiful field. First time I have ever seen a stripper head on a combine. I am a fan of red tractors. Thanks for the video.
Hay Mike how is the crop this year !!!! there are analyst out here say'n the crop's are not what they should be, and they are also say'n that major food shortage's are coming down the pike !!!! what i don't under stand Mike is here we were all locked down for 20 or 30 months for some anyway, u would think there would be major surplus of about everything !!!!! what's your thought's !!!! and to all you hard working farm hands and ranch hand's out there, thank you all for your service, the country could not survive with out you !!!! you guy's and gal's are the best!!!!! and i and the rest of the world salute you, thank you Mike for what you do and thank you, and American ranch hand's and farm hands God Bless you all have a safe corn,wheat,or what ever season you are doing, and we love you very much !!!!! just say'n !!!!
Crops are looking pretty good around here and several of the places I've been. I know there is some drought areas in the country and some wet areas as well but I'm not an analyst.
you should come down here and see us cutting rice in arkansas! we run all versatile tractors.
Advancements in technology have made agricultural machinery smarter, from automation to data collection and analysis.😊❤
I hope someday we will have these machineries.i didn't find a common platform for farmers from all over the world . I'm trying to connect all the farmers so we can guide each other .
Big flat fields, just like we have here in Australia, and that sunset was amazing. Great Video, thanks for sharing.
The Western Great Plains or High Plains is a special place. It starts SW of Lubbock and heads north past Denver. It is really a flat uplifted mountain top. The soil is mostly silty clay loam that was the dust bowl. Its origin is volcanic loess that makes it a very fine textured mineral rich productive soil. Mostly level north to south, the 3 to 5 thousand feet above sea level makes it a place where one can see the curvature of the earth. The more than thousand miles South to North is where the custom harvesters spend the summer for more than 80 years.

Such a fresh and organic harvest
Inside the cab of those combines is impressively quiet. Also impressive is the accuracy of their cuts, given that the first guy into the crop is three header widths away from the last cut edge - obviously the sattelite guidance plays a big part in that. They can really race right along since they dont have to process the straw - should imagine they'd have a fair saving on fuel useage for the same reason ? I thought their leaving the straw stem intact in the ground was to prevent soil erosion ?
Always nice to see a British company doing well especially when they had little success or demand for the headers here but I can see how well it fits some systems
yes , the stripper headers seem to have so many advantages , particularly the fact that there is much less separation required ( much like a corn header) , higher harvesting output, I wonder what the disadvantages are?
@@robertlonsdale3826 here a lot that tried them it was the losses, at the time they first came out the residue and either the loss of straw or another pass if you want to bale it plus it meant a second header rather than just running the reel for everything we can be rather tight when it comes to spending money here. I wonder sometimes if that is why little maize is grown here that is combined rather than chopped compared to other crops
Hay Mike!! welcome to Colorado so awesome to see you come out here and film in our great state!!!! I live 30 miles north of Denver and it's pretty cool to have you here love to see more videos from Colorado!!!!! Farm On!!!!!
34:06 that sunset is amazing!
Mike great video as always. Love the variety of machines and regions/ climates you show us. Keep up the great work. Appreciate the effort you put in.
Nice
Your videos are beautiful! Thanks, from Italy🇮🇹
It must be yielding good they are keeping both carts busy. The stripper headers sure look to help with capacity, they are moving right along for class 7 combines. Another sweet video!
That or them Red Combines actually put the Grain in the Tank... unlike Deere John
These headers make it similar to a corn harvest you don’t deal with any extra material so it’s throughput is greatly enhanced.
After spending 14 years in Colorado and moving back to the Midwest, I was familiar on where you were at in eastern Colorado. Enjoyed...
THANK YOU for your efforts!
Beginning of the video, "This area gets very little rain", and the end of the video features a thunderstorm in the backdrop. All joking aside, another good video Mike. I love them all.
Hi Mike , I certainly love the music for your videos and the videos themselves. Something "mesmerizing watching these big machines doing what they do best. Lovely combines. My favorite is the Fendt but those Claas 7600's are amazing. Great videos and also greetings from Ontario , Canada . Oh yes i am also a subscriber to your videos. Keep 'em coming.
I enjoy the longer videos, another great video! Thank you!
The bounty of a blessed land.
Another awesome video! Thanks for the education on those different grain heads!!
Watching from City of Imperial Beach San Diego California
I know that at the 24:48 mark it looks like a wedge type tornado. I've seen this type cloud cover in other videos and I know that farmers and workers for farmers wouldn't be that mindless to do work like that in tornadic weather conditions. I love your videos, especially the corn silage ones. I'm crippled and don't get out very much so watching KZhead is what I do most of my day. YOU'RE AWESOME AND HAVE GREAT VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!! Keep up the great work.
Absolutely awesome video Mike, miss doing the harvest. From Ireland
Yes Mike it was very good as you said you don't disappoint think videos are the best 👍🏴
Great job Mike, enjoy all your videos from calif
Best wheat harvest video on the internet = yes. Combines gps ? Semi Tractor trailers , aprox bushels? Thanks for all your hard work. 😀👍🏾🚜🌽
Excellent video Mike. Much appreciated from Calgary.
Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming.
Thanks mike! Great vid!
Great presentation 😊
23:17 I do like foreboding weather scenes. Great video Mike
Those evening shots were great.
Great job Mike! Those stripper heads are amazing - the combines go much faster with them.
I would surely enjoy being there
I really enjoyed this video very much Mike please keep up the good work . Happy New Year 2022
This deserves every single view! Awesome!
Great presentation Mike... Well done
Nothing prettier than a field full of red power
💪

Awesome video , loved the scenes at dusk man that was pretty keep it going Mike!
Awesome Mike 👍
Awesome video Mike great job👍
Greetings from South Africa! Have been following you for the last few years. Thank you for the wonderful information about the tractors and implements. If possible, could you give a bit more detail and information (maybe footage too) about the implements for the main equipment. e.g. the ripper used with a tractor. Keep up the the good work.
Super Video.
Absolutely by far the best wheat Harvest video out there. You did a great job covering the combined grain carts and trucks and the sunset clips were awesome. GREAT JOB MIKE. I do have one question white type headers were they using? And are they just for small green or can they be used for soy beans?
Now that is American Exceptionalism
Great video Mike.
very good video, thank you for sharing❤
Those headers are pretty cool !!
Goodmorning Mike. Great video the drone footage is really good. Looks like the wheat must of been making good.
Yes they were very pleased with the yield.
That's a proper coordinated setup
Nice movie, great work with filming it men, cheers from Poland
Wonderful video and red equipment ……..that’s a winner…..!
Nice video
Great video thanks Mike
Fantastic! Thanks!
Looks awesome
...fantastic video. Thank you.
Interesting contrast to Montana where, because of the sawfly, they cut the wheat down and leave it in swaths to dry-out. Then they harvest the swaths with combines and conveyer heads. I find it very interesting how the farmers vary the techniques for various conditions.
Great video, Thats a nice truck at 16.20.
Nice job.
Great job mike.what kind of yields do they get out there.? Thanks
Great video mike
I've always loved "Amber Waves of Grain". How many acres all together?
I like this long videos . Im in South Afrika.
The drone shots are amazing😁👍 shelbourne heads look cool👍😉
Thanks mike I like it very well
Super vidéo !!! et pas de musique envahissante !! bravo!!
Really like the video Mike, the drone work is awesome, the sunset and night footage is great! Looking forward to the corn videos, my favorite! Keep up the good work!
Great video!!
Nice grain carts.....
Great video
That is a very nice video how many bushels was grain cart and combine
Great Vid Mike👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜🚜😎😎😎😎💖💖💖💖🌾🌾🌾🌾🚜🚜🚜🚜
That looks like a really good crop for dry land wheat!
Knowing how to farm on the Western Plains make for a good dryland crop.
ive heard about a lot of farmer who do snow trapping for moisture on their fields, Have you ever heard about snow rigging where Ive seen a couple farmers that made some attachment for their tractor and another one made em for their cultivator. Looks funny watching someone working in a field during the winter but when you need the moisture
Another great video Mike and I've said this before and I know it's hard to tell by videos alone but it just seems like case-ih has the quietest cab
I've never been in a combine, and I was surprised how quiet it was. His breathing wasn't labored or anything but you could hear it over the machine. Crazy quiet.
Stripper headers are a lot quieter than a conventional header, helps reduce cab noise quite a bit.
I don't think a combine equipped with stripper headers, can pick up everything on the East-Montana-West Dakota side this year. What would it look like in lentils ????
Mike you need to head down to Northwest New Mexico to the Navajo Reservation, the tribe runs a pretty big farming operation near Farmington ,N.M.
My wife's brother ran the potato farm for years. But had to go because he was not Navajo!
Would you say that's fuchsia or magenta on the front of that perty tractor?
Another great video! How does the lead combine knows where to start so that the others can follow without leaving a sliver of wheat behind or overlapping already cut wheat?
All the combines have GPS auto-steer with preset swath widths. All the lead combine has to do is skip over a couple swaths and start cutting.
This method is easily the most efficient way of combining assuming the lead combine can make the swath it leads out on.
Can they not get water to irrigate? Water table too deep?
Great video Mike, do you know how are they processing the "stubble"? If they are mulching it, or any sort of tilling, or just directly sowing?
I suspect they are planting corn right into it and putting rollers ahead of the row units on the planter. It’s slick as snot on a door knob, your getting moisture retention as well as weed control.
The Western Great Plains or High Plains is a special place. It starts SW of Lubbock and heads north past Denver. It is really a flat uplifted mountain top. The soil is mostly silty clay loam that was the dust bowl. Its origin is volcanic loess that makes it a very fine textured mineral rich productive soil.

The more than thousand miles South to North is where the custom harvesters spend the summers for more than 80 years.
You can’t see the curve... You can look at an ocean for thousands upon thousands of acres and no curve... But it does sound good!
How many acres do they farm? Great video!!
Full steam ahead!
Beautiful area!! Last time i been thru colorado was in 2010. Nice to see. God Bless u and ur family sir!! I like the in cab view . Hope if possible, u could do more of that especially during corn silage. If not possible well it is what it is. God bless🙌🙌🙏
I'd like to see the mechanics of how those heads work They never pick up the head at the end of a row!
