Harvest is much more work than this tranquil depiction would indicate. The heart and soul of the Kansas wheat industry are the Kansas wheat people. The combines roll all across the great State of Kansas to bring the world its daily bread. The locations and equipment are different, but the long hours of hard work are always the same. Harvesting proves to be a bit of a sticky situation following a common Kansas thunderstorm.
Harvesting requires more equipment than just combines.
Grain carts, utility vehicles, grain trucks, and repair vehicles are just a few examples of the machinery needed each harvest season. Eventually, the trucks filled with grain arrive at the elevators for selling or storing. The sun sets as another successful harvest season is now nothing but a memory.
