Video: Gleaner S98 Combines in Action | Harvesting Wheat Near Preston, Kansas

Kansas Wheat Harvest is in full swing!
Join me near Preston, Kansas as this farm harvests its 2026 winter wheat crop with two new Gleaner S98 combines. One combine is equipped with a MacDon FD240 FlexDraper while the second runs a Gleaner (AGCO) draper head, giving viewers a chance to compare both harvesting setups in the same field.

Keeping the combines moving is a powerful Versatile 610 Delta Track pulling a tandem axle Brent 1598 grain cart, hauling wheat from the combines so harvest can continue without stopping.
If you enjoy modern farm equipment, wheat harvest, combines, grain carts, and seeing how farms operate across America, I think you'll enjoy this one.
