Here are two Gleaner combines in the same field. With two combines it won’t take long to finish cutting wheat.

This is a John Deere combine working in Dickinson County. The big reddish-orange box to the right of the combine is a grain cart. When the combine is full of grain the farmer will dump the wheat into the grain cart and start cutting again.
