    Thanks for the video. Northern Ohio was super wet this spring. Corn just tasseling too on the lake Erie shore. Normally start chopping labor day. Not this year. Never met a dairyman that didn't LOVE chopping corn silage. Most favorite time of the year!! Size of equipment doesn't matter. But super fun to watch this big stuff! Can't wait to watch the sorghum chopped

    Thanks, BTP. I haven't watched your Forage videos because I didn't know a thing about this type of harvest. Cattle farming is/was virtually nil here in the Bootheel. I knew one cattle farmer when I grew up here. But I'm enjoying watching now that I'm taking time to sit & watch it.

    It's great to be able to chop corn already at the end of July, here in Germany it's usually done at the end of September.

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  6 лет назад +2

      Germany has some impressive farming. Corn is planted here in March. Chopping will run for about two weeks and then the combines will start picking. By the end of September here the fields will all be plowed up and ready for wheat to be drilled over the old corn ground.

    It is my understanding that Harvestores require drier corn silage than bunker silos, but the silage for the Harvestore looks about the same moisture as the other silage. Do the owners have a different brand of unloader that allows them to handle the wetter corn silage? Thanks.

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  6 лет назад

      I am not sure. I plan to a full video on the Balzer Silage Deck. I will see what I can find out.

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  6 лет назад +2

      Corn that is harvested green is completely harvested. The entire plant and ears of corn are chopped up into small pieces where a combine only harvests the ears of corn when the plant is dry to collect the grain.
