Nice to see a mowing video again. I have always enjoyed watching triple mowers, windrowers etc at work.

Thanks Jason, it’s been a while since I’ve watched some of your videos! It’s actually relaxing to watch!! I enjoy your narration and the information you provide!
Have you ever done a video on the cost side and the anticipated payout of these machines?
Example, this machine is $250, 000, since it’s not the only machine in the barn. What has to happen in order for a farmer to afford this equipment!
Guesstimate:
$400, 000 combine
$250, 000 for a tractor
$150, 000 grain truck
$150, 000 + disc, planter,
You can have $1, 000, 000.00
Real fast in equipment!
Not including maintenance costs and facilities to store the equipment! I know the payoff is long term! But this gets pricey!
Thanks again for your videos.a” bringing attention to our farmers who deserve a big thank you for keeping us going! My respect to the farmers who work hard every day!!

I'd sure like to drive one of those. Very quiet and productive. Thanks Jason.

My favorite windrower is a John Deere r450 (like peck hill has now), hope to drive one someday.

Jason: “I hope you enjoyed watching”
Me: absolutely, my enjoyment meter pegged.
Bigtractorpower was the first channel I ever subscribed to a little over 10 years ago. You still put a smile on my face.

Great video. I use tractor IMT 577 and mounted mower conditioner Taarup 3124 8 feat I think its Kubota brand in US. We have much smaller fields in Croatia .To use W200M would be waist of money so this is a only way to see them in work so thanks for that.

That's is some really good looking rye grass

[johnclarkkitner]

Nice mowers. My brother and me still use 477 new Holland.

Used to do the same thing with a 780 Deere swather with a 40 horse air cooled Wisconsin.

Mowed down cereal rye calculated at 125 lbs. per acre when broadcasted.
It took 4 hrs. to mulch my 50' x 75' patch, with a 15 hp. Simplicity Regent lawnmower.

Id love to use one of those on my hay for a weekend...If the rain ever Jason

[Railfan]

Awesome video. Awesome machine!! Well done as usual.

[mattschelling]

Interesting video. Looks like those heads have some issues to overcome.

No reason for lumpy windrows.
Uneven cut, eventhough the crop is standing straight.
The stems in the windrow are still straight, look uncrimped.
Crop isn't all that heavy, not going very fast and still using all the horsepower?

Nice video none the less.

I just drove by those swathing wheat for seven springs in Cadiz Ky earlier

[standodge]

I keep forgetting to hit the like button once in a while but I enjoy the videos

[Hinesfarm-Indiana]

Cool video Jason. We got some rye that we’ll be harvesting this summer.

[houndsong]

Is this rye solely for weaving into matt material, or will the seed also be utilized?

[Blackwellll]

Out in my area southeastern Wisconsin alot of farmers have triple mowers or pull type seen some windrowers but not alot
