so what tractors on the mowers now then

Fendt 818

Smart Photos Powerstar I enjoyed looking through that lot :)

My one question is mate, does the deere spfh without additive barrels on the back have a built in tank like you can get on claas jags?

Thanks Jamie! The forager was new 2 weeks ago, the old additive barrels, pump etc still hadn't been taken off the old forager (JD 7300), but now, both additive barrels and a rear PUH are on it.

What does "Prodrive" mean on the new forager ?

Basically,in a nut shell, it means you have a 40k road speed, and a 20k field speed, it has front and rear speed matching axles, (sending oil to the axle with most traction), And other little gadgets to do with better diff lock system and push button park breaking. Thanks for your comment Mark  :)

Nice few shots there Luke - is the silage in full swing then yet ???

Cheers Colm, yeah it's pretty much hitting off now, all the main big dairy farmers have cut, and a few of the smaller farms are knocking down grass at present. What's it like up your way?

And just to finish off, relating to Colm's question. I won't be online that much now. I've only just got in from silaging tonight now, and its the earliest all week. Will pop in when I can, share a few pics have a chat and what have you, but in the mean time, it's work, work, work :)

Take care everyone!
