James T Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 Hi guys, this farm is dairy: they mix silage, barley, supplements, brewing waste hence bucket/grab changeover. Weather was rather crap today for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeredriver Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 We used to cut out as much as you was going to use that day with the sheergrab then take it off and use the bucket to load the silage as well as maize and all the other stuff How do you like the jd loader theres a few over here now but they stoped making them now good pics by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James T Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 I don't actually work or live on the farm, I'm taking the photographs as part of a project (and part of a hobby too!) The farmer swears by the JD loader. Interestingly, the dairyman told me yesterday that the JD operating the Keenan was the one of the largest around those parts when it was bought new in the early '80's. How times have changed!
