It used tae tak weeks tae put a wheen o acres o silage in...noo ye can dae it in yin or twa days!.. When i was a wee fella we would cut the grass and cart it into the silo on an old buckrake and it took ages to get it in,then the single chop jf or tarrup harvester came along... but today this is how it went in..well it was mowed down and kicked out yesterday then most of it lifted today and tomorrow we will cover it! The contractor was using two self propelled harvesters, almost 1300 horse power between them..my father and i cut corn with a P3 ,T20 tractor and binder in the same fields and built two corn stacks...she didn't burn as much diesel as the silage outfit!...by the way does anybody know what horsepower the P3 ,T20 was? P.S. if you are viewing this blog and don't know what silage is..just look on the web.
