BC Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Nice finds there Paul...that silage looks to have lain a while after being cut...up our way I think farmers would have been tempted to make hay out of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 I'm not sure if it's a "Q" or a "D" reg Bill, but i'll be passing the farm later on so will pop in an get another look Both New Holland choppers belong to the same Dairy unit, and back in the day when i was at school i can remember them running a pair of trailed JFs with engines on, both pulled by Roadless tractors. The grass been laid for 2 days but was past its best, that was its first cut this year, that usually takes place at the end of May. So much for the weather this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valley Axe Man Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 Cheers for the comments guys, i admit i'm no expert with a camera, just sorta point and clic and hope for the best!! :laugh: 6910, This pair of choppers usually do 3 cuts at about 300 acres a cut between them, but got a feeling it'll be 2 cuts this year somehow.
