A group of farmers and fundraisers want to set a world record by harvesting 160 acres of soybeans in well under 10 minutes on a farm in Perth County.
The project, called “Harvest for Hunger,” will raise money for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank. The goal is to gather as many combines as possible in a field and harvest the crop in a very short time. Organizer Randy Drenth says that between 100 and 200 combines will be required to pull this off.
