Hi followers,
like you
know, I have moved to Washington State from California last weekend. This
weekend and about 1300 miles more on the truck odometer, I am already back in
Idaho. In Caldwell, ID. I will spend this week to demo the BiG X 1100 and our
trifold 12 row header Easy Collect 903. But first some more about the road trip
through Oregon and Washington State…
The
landscape in the west of the US is changing very often. Especially in Oregon!
Driving through the desert, along mountains and pastures, forests, lakes and
rivers. On the mountain plateaus farmers are growing grain on dry land. Going
from Oregon to Washington you cross the Columbia River, which is the natural
border line between the two states. Just behind the border, you have a very
nice view on Mount Adams. But less words and more pictures…
The demos
last week went very well. A highlight was to chop corn at a big dairy with
about 41.000 cows. That farm was farming about 93.000 ac with corn and hay,
grain, potatoes and vegetables. It was very impressive. Unfortunately I can’t
show you any pictures about that. My camera is lying somewhere in a corn field
in Washington. I have lost it. But a new one is bought already, so there are
BiG X pictures coming next week.
On Saturday
I prepared the BiG X 1100 for the coming week. The corn is not that tall than
it is in California, but customers are talking about 35+ Ton/ac. We will see…
Regards
from Idaho,
Benedikt
