Going Green - Iowa 2009
2009 Holiday
No journey to the Holy Land (Iowa) would be complete without visiting a Farm Implement Dealer. After such a visit and acquiring the prices for these Harvestors you can appreciate the fact that our Farmer in the U. S. A. do an excellent job of providing the food stuffs that we all enjoy on a daily basis.
A Corn Combine such as this starts at $250,000.00 and can cost much more depending on the options you need for a specific farm operation. In some parts of the Corn Belt Farmers much acquire the Hillside Model which has a header that adjust to the terrain as you operate.
A view of a row of Combines waiting to be purchased. Once you obtain the basic combine you must buy a corn header and a small grain header if you also grow oats or wheat.


Of course before you can harvest a crop you need to prepare the seed bed. This John Deere Tractor has a base price of $306,000.00. If you desire the widest tires available for the most traction in moist spring time fields you can quickly add $12,000.00 to this price. Of course you can cover a lot of soil with a Tractor such as this.
