Geringhoff World Travels - Brazil

With the winter farm shows wrapping up here in North America, I thought would be cool give you a glimpse of a Geringhoff's booth at an Ag Fair in Brazil. Geringhoff will attend 2 more shows in Brazil this year and one in Portugal and we will bring you looks at those when they happen as well.

Unveiling the Independence

In the weeks leading up to the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville KY, the message from Geringhoff was clear: "The future isn't what it used to be". True to that statement; Wednesday, February 15th 2012 became Independence Day.

That is where, in front of a packed crowd of media and show attendees, Geringhoff unveiled their Future Concept Corn Head; the Independence.

Elite Series Round Up

With the busy winter show circuit right around the corner, it’s going to be the general public’s first real chance to get an up close and personal look at the new Elite Series cornheads. 

So before you step on the lot at one of Geringhoff’s 14 booth spaces this winter, take a chance to recap all the new exclusive features the Elite Series has to offer:

U.S. corn yield and harvest tracker

Here is a neat tool that I discovered over on the Agweb website that I thought was worth bringing to your attention. It's an application that compiles user generated information to track and record harvest progress and yields.

The map is fully interactive and like I mentioned, you can submit your own harvest information and it will update the map the next morning.

I was playing around and as of this afternoon, the highest recorded yield I could find on the map belongs to an area just outside Macon, Nebraska with 244 bu./acre.

Can you beat that? Click the link below to submit your info.
