In this video I am out in a sugar beet field south of Declo Idaho as this farm is busy harvesting/digging their 2023 beet crop.

In the video I show and explain the process of what they are doing. First up they are running their Massey Ferguson 8650 tractor pulling an Alloway defoliator ahead of the harvester. After they run the defoliator/topper over the beets they are coming through the field with their Fendt 936 tractor which is pulling an Amity 2700 digger/beet harvester. They are side loading the beets into several different truck which are hauling the beets and stockpiling them in the field temporarily.

Later in the video the local beet processing plant is loading the beets out of the field and into semi trucks. The loader is a Holmer cleaner/loader and once the beets are loaded up in the semi trailers they are being hauled to the processing plant to be made into sugar.

I've done other usage beet harvest videos that are on my YouTube channel in Michigan and Colorado. I was also able to video a potato harvest video while in Idaho and that video was just posted two weeks ago if you'd like to check it out.
