Combines R 72 vs A 85 9895

[Illinois_Gleaner]

I traded a R75 in on an A85. Have only run in wheat. I ran a 30ft head on the 75. I am running a 40ft on the A85. The 85 will run just as fast as the 75. Good sample. So would that be 33% more capacityIJIJ Will no more this fall in beans and corn. IG

They look decent,on the corn side. The beans depends on when you planted them. The early ones look good,but so many of them were late. My last ones were July 18th. They arent even blooming yet. IG

Hang in there with them, we finished up 60 acres on July 11th, they were 4.3's, al little long for that time of year but is what we bought last winter and were no others to be had.. Our's have boomed and about 1_2 are pods and filling now..wont be great but with prices likely we may be in the same shape as a good crop 2 years ago.. I have always heard that beans can sense and adapt to climate more than corn. My 2 cents
