JD Combine Advisor

Question

Anyone have experience with the JD Combine Advisor in the S-series machines? Worth it or not? Looking at two different combines, same year/model one with the Combine Advisor cameras and the other without them...

Answer

We run 2019’s. And the work ok in the hills so I keep it turned off. The 2022 are supposed to work much better and I am told . I really like the cameras in the clean grain and tailings return though and use them to set the machine and never stop to  check and I quite second-guessing myself.

Answer

My first year with it found myself using it at first quite a bit adjusting my settings off watching loss monitor and cameras, found myself opening up sieves more for capacity by the end of harvest had it shut off and using my saved settings, if you have somebody running machine that isn't familiar with setting combine for changing conditions maybe worth it.  I did not have any luck with the harvest smart tried several different times it has a lot of bugs in it, if they could get that figured out I would definitely recommend it, when I got it to work it worked great but was very seldom so shut that off also. IMO your getting some cameras and little more technology, I purchased for the full package and feel I got about half of what JD said it could do.
