ihatepoundland Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Following on from http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=17250.0 Contractors may have a heart attack...3.7 acres in 4.5 hours The reason why there are no close-ups....dust Nice and full The reason it tooks so long; the Claas driver joins the 6290 driver and they both leave. Now they come back, with the Claas driver driving a 6170 (which gets parked up). The 6290 is now pulling a different trailer. Once the 6290 is full, the driver gets the 6170 from where it was parked Once the 6170's trailer was full, the Claas driver got into the 6290 and they both left again. Last one.....they hadn't quite finished when I went out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Nice pics Rob That looks almost too dry to be clamped to me, more like haylage than silage I was thinking the same earlier but not being an expert thought I better leave the numpty for someone else!

Gav836 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I was thinking the same earlier but not being an expert thought I better leave the numpty for someone else! I'm no great expert but I have baled stuff with less dust in it than that in the past month for haylage at a local livery yard As if I'd give you a numpty anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 I was wondering that too, I carefully avoided mentioning silage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGEL FORD Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 had the field been flooded to make all that dust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihatepoundland Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 It has a wet spot near to an old pond in the bottom right hand corner, but the puddle is only ever 5m x 5m maximum...the rest is steeper than it appears, we haven't had that much rain (comparatively). It was pretty dusty last year, but the clover was no where near as dry then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihatepoundland Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 Probably short on men and did this to keep a customer happy I reckon They are the customer - Agree with the short on men part , awful lot of hassle if you don't have the workers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
