Wheat Harvest & Double Crop Soybean Planting | CLAAS Lexion 8600 & Fendt Momentum

Wheat harvest and double crop soybean planting are happening at the same time in western Ohio! In this video, we visit Zimmer Farms south of Greenville, Ohio, as they harvest their 2026 winter wheat crop and no-till plant soybeans directly into the freshly harvested wheat stubble. Wheat harvest is underway with a CLAAS Lexion 8600 combine equipped with a MacDon FD140 draper head. Just down the road, the farm is no-till planting double crop soybeans with a Challenger MT738 tractor pulling a Fendt Momentum 32 planter set up as a 32-row planter on 15-inch row spacing. Most of this video was filmed from the drone as we go back and forth between the wheat harvest and soybean planting operations. I also explain what is happening throughout the video and how the farm is moving quickly from harvesting one crop to planting the next. Ten days after filming the original video, I returned to the field to see how the double crop soybeans were doing. Be sure to watch until the end of the video to see the soybeans emerging through the wheat stubble!
