While yield reports have been good, the uncertain weather has led to a frustrating time for combine drivers. Luckily, the day the Deutz-Fahr 6040 HTS combine was on test, we only encountered one light drizzle, which impeded progress for about an hour.The 6040 HTS is regarded as the entry-level combine by Deutz, while there is an update of this machine on the way. Deutz-Fahr has told us that the current model will remain in production due to demand and the stock of Tier 4 Interim engines at the company’s production centre.
