Ormiston Farms Sets World Record

Joe Denoyer - October 5, 2020 1:49 pm

On Saturday the Ormiston Farms Team broke the most bushels harvested by 1 machine in 8, 10 and 12hrs. They did this with a 2020 CLAAS 8700TT with a 16 row non chopping head, 2 grain carts and 6 trucks. They hauled all the corn to their bins which is 7-7.5miles away to a 12500 bu leg. They did this on 2.3 124ac irrigated fields. This was done  the real world way and did not prepare the circles for the record. Ormiston Farms Thanks their Claas Territory manager Nick Jacobson who helped drive combine so Rocky could take a break?. Last but not least the great Jaeger Family Farms who loaned them an extra truck so they could break this record. This record is now a KANSAS RECORD!!!
