  1. The most important person when it comes to silaging, is the farmers wife when she brings out hot pastys and a cuppa  ;D

    Best part of the day!

    There is no king in silage making. The rake cant rake without the mower. The forager can't pick up efficiently without a rake or trailers. The trailers can't be filled up without the forager. The silage can't be consolidated without the clamp man. Silage is only successful if the whole team work together and everyone in the team has to have consideration for the other people working on the job. A tractor and trailer cannot turn as tightly as a forager and the rake cannot have every row perfectly straight and trailer drivers should never dump before the last load is up and rolled. If you can get to the clamp that quick they will manage without you in the field for a extra 5 minutes.

    But nowadays foragers has amazing outputs so a contractor that really worries about quality will run a second tractor on the clamp to roll.

  2. Agricultral law is getting silly now.

    Its just one step closer to wiping out british farmers.

    50k tractors now are generally fitted with air suspension so I dont know if that changes anything.

    BUT.....to drive a tractor at 50k will require a HGV license (law is still not agreed yet) and then if you are driving on a HGV licence it is not classed as a agricultral vehicle (classed as a industrial vehicle) so there for, it would be illegal to run your tractor on red diseal.

    Boy, the govermet like to make it tricky!
