Todays job was to clean some oats for planting later this week. We plant oats and tillage radishes as fall cover crop and soil builder after rye harvest. Some
years we chop them in Dec. for silage. Cleaned about 125 bu into the Deere 68 grain cart that will be used to fill the notill drill. Tom

Even though your cleaner is mounter on a trailer. It looks all most the same as the Fanning Mill we used when I was a young boy, except we actually turned a crank by hand to run the mill.
 
Nice clean milling job. Looks like it is a lot more work then if the mill was set in place and had a bin over it. ours has not been used in several years. there is a bin overhead with 2 legs beside it one for the mill bin and one for the clean ready to bin seed. It's not a real big mill. About 30 inches wide. I think it says a no.32 clipper.
 
Looks beautiful . We played in those wagons as boys at harvest. Ours had no auger in it. Just a grain box of wheat or beans. Was pretty cold when we cut milo usually. Cover crops have sure grown in popularity in recent years here in Missouri.
 
Tom, too many grasshoppers and won't go through the drill?? Can't see why you clean them for just feed seeding, be different if you were planting for seed to harvest.
 
Always pieces of straw and other types of trash that will plug up the feed cups of a drill plus if and weed seeds in the oats you are planting weeds as well as the oats. Do you want more weeds by planting the weed seed?
