combine adjustment

     Seems like almost every year I see a few really green fields after corn and soybean harvest but this year seems worse. We had about 3.5 inches of rain a couple weeks ago after our month+ of hot and dry so the soil is still damp enough to support germination. The last couple of days when I have been out and about I have passed several fields that have a nice green carpet of either corn or soybean plants. I can't imagine that much grain passing through a combine if the operator is checking behind it. Some of the fields I know have had green machines harvesting. A couple others I know had red combines. Don't know of much else around here. Anyone else see something like this? Are the newer rotary type machines worse about this? 

Crop condition, growing conditions, plane old luck some days. As much else as is different out here on the left coast this cannot be that different.

Yes all the early picked corn looks like they trying to double crop around eastern Nebraska!!!😳😳

This is our second year of the R-42, we are still new to it and rotaries in general. We had a K, an F2, and then Went to a JD 9400 for a couple years. Dad works at our local Agco dealer now so made sense to go Gleaner again. This year in our area of Ohio we got a lot of rain in the beginning of summer, then none from late July until late Sept. We had some small beans in the pods. Book settings we had a pretty dirty sample and we were loading up the chaffer and sieve. Open the chaffer and air up all the way and clean sample but throwing out some of the smaller beans. A bit of a trade-off. We ended up closing it down just a bit more and I think closing the cylinder gap slightly, and settling for a little dirtier sample but saving more beans. Of course when the plants are that dry you have some header loss and there is not much to do about it.
