Grass is usually too wet to whole crop and wheat and alfalfa too so when chopping haylage or wheatlage we like to mow it with a swather and then let it set overnight then run the chopper with a pickup head. And the additive is what we call inoculant and it’s basically all the right types of bacterium to promote good fermentation.. it stinks like yeast which is actually basically what it is. Just some info for ya
One advantage on whole crop/chopping, is that you can harvest before ripe (1 growth stage early). This means I could forage a crop and possibly get a winter crop planted, where if I waited for proper harvest, I would have to wait until spring to plant the next crop. AFAIK the yield from a Chopper is the same as the Mower (with the usual margin of error), it's the crop type that affects the yield amount - corn best, others not so good.
Thank you. I've farmed in Michigan my whole life and never seen a machine like this in operation. I was clueless and feeling dumb. I'm a farmer for christ sake. Thanks again now I can argue with the neighbors about something besides their darn dogs
I had never seen one either - most of our farmers use side pull (1 or 2 lane) foragers that dump into a chaff wagon, like on the American Farmer Mobile Game. Now I am starting to see some of these in the fields around us though. There is a big cattle farm in Spencer OH that uses a Class Jaguar - its really cool to see it at work!
Thank you for the great vedio i was stuck couldnt figure out why my forage harvester wouldnt do grass i was totally lost thanks to your vedio i have it all fixed now
I love your videos so much haha I have watched them since I was like 7 and I’m 15 now but yeah recently got the game and I’m so happy to find you again
Choppers work on Corn, Wheat, Barley, Oats, Canola, Soybeans, Sorghum and Sunflowers (change from FS19 where they only worked on Corn - unless you played with Maize Plus!). Mowers work on all of the above and Grass. Choppers have a max operating speed of 6mph, mowers run at 9mph. Big chopper is probably the way to go as the greater working width more than compensates for the lack of speed, but if you're running a low power harvester (or the tractor doohickey) then you're probably better off with the mower. One thing to watch with the mower, since it does grass, trying to mow crop near the edge of the field may get buggy as it tries to mix grass with the crop - you may do better to take a mower/field roller/mulcher around the edge of the field first or landscape a grassless headland to avoid mixing.
And I do know of a r/l farmer who uses a small tractor towed forager (like what we had in FS19), normally he forages corn for his silage, but last year he did sorghum, they never explained why - possibly seed cost(?!).
Arthur, i think konskilde is pronounced KONGS-keel-deh also. the weber basically pounds the chaff with a really heavy weight. it basically works like a vibrating soil roller compactor vehicle. example: Case SV215E, SV217E Vibratory Roller
Since Giants added variable length months (1-28 days per month), everything was refactored to monthly calculations: production cycles; animal food consumption, breeding and production; and silage fermentation (bunker and bales!).
Kongskilde is pronounced like kong’s ( as in king kong ) kill so kong’s kill. It is Danish ( quite close to me actually and both my Older brothers and my dad has workes there. The name is from the near by village and translates to “the Kings spring” kilde being a natural water spring. And kong being the Old Danish spellling for king. Other Danish brands in the game include, hardi sprayers, Samson and nordsten. And probably a few others that I am forgetting.
@@TheBarser you are correct. But in an effort to help Arthur pronounce it close to correctly it was easier to drop the e. besides, without the e. it sounds kind of like a classical danish country side accent
Kong, very close to the Old English cyning (konegr in Old Norse?), pronounced Koon-ing, if you say it very fast with an accent you'll just sound like you said king and that is probably how the word morphed after the Great Vowel Shift.
I'm only here because I bought this cool looking harvester and destroyed an entire field of soybeans, only to be left with chaff :( This game is so complex!
Dont use tippers use a sugar cane trailer so when the forage harvester fills it you can dump straight into a dump truck or semi that what I did in fs 19
I feel like it’s a dead game at this point. I am pretty sure it’s been abandoned by the developers. It had a lot of potential. Sad it didn’t get finished
Yes, you can sell silage to the biogas plant. If you are going to do that, its best to make the silage using the silo at biogas plant and use a front loader to load the silage bin. I think it takes 50k liters at a time and then you have to wait for it to process. Dont forget, when you sell to the biogas plant your silage also makes digestate, which is free fertilizer and can be spread with a slurry spreader. Good opportunity to use the pumps and hoses DLC
A better thing to use for silage is a leveler it helps out alot for how big of feilds I have and it take very little time it just helps out in the long run
@@Vbluguitar Ok. Trying to figure out the gameplay purpose of changing tires. Our small tractor with narrow tires can drive over crops without destroying the crops. If we change it to normal or wider tires, it destroys crops. But our large tractor destroys crops even with narrow tires. So trying to understand why we would ever use narrow tires on a large tractor. Was hoping you knew the secret! 😊
@@brianrutherford3681 aha. That explains it lol. I may return to it but I need to pair down series a bit to make room for some of the new games that are coming
It depends on the situation. 3am, your dog is barking at deer and waking up the neighbor, thats a problem. 2pm and someone is trying to break into your house. WOOF WOOF, good doggy! Problem is the dog doesn't know any better, like you said. I try to let me dogs bark as much as possible without pissing off neighbors. Lol. A balanced life.

Ah - good to know! Makes sense why they mow first. The forager has a dryer stage too, doesn't it?

Grass collecting: Rather than use a forage, put a Mower on the front of a tractor with a forage wagon behind. Cheaper, easier and quicker.
Agreed
True why do most players bale? I don't get it. I'm new to fs but as soon as I learned about bunker silos I haven't baled grass for silage since.
Helpful video! Thanks Arthur.
Glad it helped!

That is really cool!
Does the kilde in kongskilde really sounds like kill in english? usually kilde sounds like kille in english. A fellow dane here

This really helped thx

Hey, that is how I learned about them too lol
That’s the cool thing about this game is how you lose money learning bow everything works. Once you get it down you’ll make a ton of money.
There are two types of corn. Sweet corn and normal corn for flour cow feed etc as much as i know.
Good to know!
Dont use tippers use a sugar cane trailer so when the forage harvester fills it you can dump straight into a dump truck or semi that what I did in fs 19
I have to look - I don't think those trailers are in 22
Can you help me with mowing on farming simulator 17 and 22 ? And sugarcane harvesting? Thank you for the Forage harvesters Video s.
I thought this was a big cool harvester. Used it on my sunflowers. 💀
NOOOOOOO lol - been there, done that.
Are you going to do a series in cattle and crops? I bought the game and I am just doing the tutorials at this time
I feel like it’s a dead game at this point. I am pretty sure it’s been abandoned by the developers. It had a lot of potential. Sad it didn’t get finished
Can you please make a video about loaders ? Merry Christmas
So can I sell corn that I chop I don’t have animals so after I chop and make it into silage can I sell it?
Yes, you can sell silage to the biogas plant. If you are going to do that, its best to make the silage using the silo at biogas plant and use a front loader to load the silage bin. I think it takes 50k liters at a time and then you have to wait for it to process. Dont forget, when you sell to the biogas plant your silage also makes digestate, which is free fertilizer and can be spread with a slurry spreader. Good opportunity to use the pumps and hoses DLC
Can you use forager on straw to make chaff?
Nope. You used to be able to in older versions, but they don't do it in real life so they removed it from game.
A better thing to use for silage is a leveler it helps out alot for how big of feilds I have and it take very little time it just helps out in the long run
No millennial here my friend. Stuck in the 70/80's forever

I will! Should have something for you be the weekend
@@Vbluguitar good
Lol 00s thank god im an older gamer
How you use a forage harvester to harvest sugarcane, Arthur on farming simulator 22 ? 30:46
I don't think that you can forage sugar cane.
I found a mod about it ruclips.net/video/s5U-8Ay7hlQ/видео.htmlsi=UqI5qVeVypjHcWBG
Where is the biogas plant in farming simulator 22 hagenstedt map ? ,Arthur
I haven't played on Hagenstedt. I am not sure.
Can you please make a video about logging for farming simulator 22
I sure will - I was going to actually do that in the next week or two, since we have the big logging update coming next month!
What map is that
Elm Creek...
What the hell did you quit playing farmer's dynasty???? I miss seeing your farmers dynasty videos.
You just noticed now? lol - I haven't recorded an FD video in 6 months or more ;)

Not gonna happen - lol - my videos require popcorn or a snack to be eaten while watching. If you want super edited stuff DJ GoHam is your man
Lol streams interrupted by internet throttle. Recorded tutorials interrupted by barking dogs and clicky keyboards.
woof woof
why do people insist that dogs ain't allowed to bark, they dogs that what they do i hate people.

I found his vid quite comical not too serious and most importantly exactly what it said on the tin, I think your just in a bad mood. Good day 😉
seems like a ridiculously expensive way to pick up grass...
agreed - they are best used chaffing corn.
