This year’s grain harvest poses special challenges for everyone. The long and intense rain, sometimes hail and wind have badly affected the harvest in the region. In addition, the soil is still soggy and the delayed harvest threatens the wheat to germinate and, in the worst case, can only be sold as fodder wheat. As a fair weather window has once again been announced, the requirements are even higher and require maximum concentration – if not now, then when? Drescher driver Rick took on the task in Almisberg with the Leuenberger family with the modified Deutz-Fahr M35.75 from LU Walther GmbH in Wyssachen. The area that was not drivable was cut with the motor mower and transported to the thresher by hand. Except for a few small tracks in the field, this harvest went off quite satisfactorily.
