Deere-est Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Wow that looks challenging!! Thanks for going out in the rain all day to get photos for us, Bas I really enjoy your topic. Those huge tyres on the trailers are very gentle on the ground but when they go down they must be hard work to pull out with those huge tyres bulldozing so much soil infront of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the drivers have seen it after one day, then it's no fun anymore. Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Dedication to the cause! Thanks for going out in far from ideal conditions to take another fantastic batch of action shots of the maize silage taking place, a joy to look through on here.

Deere-est Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Wow!!! The man on the towing tractor must be pretty sharp to keep the other one along side the forager when he is so far away from it. Quite some operation to get the maize in this year. Excellent photos though, well worth getting it wet for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent photos though, well worth getting it wet for! not really, the tractor on the trailer just has to clutch and the one on the rope at the front will no longer be moving forwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texas Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Ever think of using smaller trailers if ground conditions don't allow the big ones? \ You are right those USA trailers are also very heavy. The Kaweco silage trailer had less problems. This dairy farmer must make some miles from the field to the pit. Sometimes they drive 2 hours for 1 load ( from pit to field and back). That is also the reason they still use those big trailers. texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
