And, you know, we put everything through a grain cart scale, so we post-calibrate the combine to make sure it's as tight as possible.
Yep.
Heck, I measure everything out of the bin, and I'm always within a point to a point and a half after it's had the bin fans run on it for weeks after it's went in too.
So I can't stress enough the importance of looking at precision if you're not doing it today, especially as farms get larger.
These large operations, and bends aren't getting any smaller.
I mean, you've got a nice bend here behind you.
They're not getting any smaller, are they?
You get a bushel and a half maybe.
That's right.
But those, you know, there's more commingled grain because operations can't have, hey, that bend, that 200,000 bushel bend is one entity in there.
It may be multiple entities where the precision provides that solution to utilize that bend for efficiencies on the farm and not have the headache of...
Plus, I like to know soon.
Yeah.
I don't want to wait for that bend to get measured to see if I was right or not.
I want to know as soon as we get done with the field.
I found out this year a couple of bends have more capacity than I realized.
Oh, yeah?
But I couldn't get in them.
No.
The spinner stopped turning.
