Record setting because of how fast it was done or the amount of the harvest? I'd like to know how many millions worth of equipment are in that field at one time. Wow!

Why so many combines in one field?

Opp's, missed a bit of the information.

With 100 combines and several grain trucks in 10 min. and 15 seconds.
This record will be entered in the Guiness World.
Proceeds to be sent to a Kids camp.

The first shot looks like a publicity photo for Deere. The wider view shows other manufacturers. I wonder if it was some sort of demo/farm show? I was at a Farm Progress Show a few years back that didn't have that many combines in the field at once. Is that normal?

I see now. It's easy to see that each combine had it's own section of the field to harvest. I'd love to know other statistics like how many bushels of grain were harvested in that recorded setting dash.
