Sunflowers harvesting started in our area in September. As you can see in our pictures, our friends Juan Julián de la Fuente (father and son) used for the first time their new Moresil GB 700 cuttebar. This header has 7 meters of working width. The most important feature is its chopper which is attached to the bottom zone and it allows us to crush all stems of sunflowers, so the stubble is perfect to harrow with chissel plough or discs plough and we don't have to pick up any stems as we carried out before using this type of cuttebar. Where there aren't stones this chopper can work at ground level and stems can be absolutely crushed.
About the result of the sunflowers, it is being fine this year because the winter and spring were rainy... we are getting an average about 1,500 kg/ha that is a good result for our area.
In the first harvesting days, sunflowers were not completely dry in a few areas, so the combine had some problems and few augers were clogged and we had to clean it manually as you can see in some pictures

ReplyDeleteI think these sunflowers are extraordinary and the machinery even better.
As always, an impresive post.

Gracias por tu comentario.
Hemos tenido muy buen resultado este año con el girasol. La maquinaria utilizada trabaja muy muy bien.
Saludos.
Buen reportaje. Se nota que tenian humedad sobre todo en la foto de las pipas en el remolque, se nota que no "corren" bien. Da gusto ver como deja el rastrojo el Moresil.
ReplyDeleteUn saludo.
Las que cosechamos por la mañana si estaban bastante húmedas. Por la tarde-noche ya era otra cosa. El Moresil funciona muy bien.
