Good operator, he tries to keep the windshields clean on the truck behind him. Silage still drifts on the windshield, but he is aiming high enough to not cover them. We will be chopping soon, and I drive a truck for that job. That's a nice outfit you rode with!
I enjoy your videos. I seen silaged cut before on you tube but i never knew what they got per ton Not that i will ever have any use for that info I appreciate you letting us know I also liked the cattle loading video I never knew what it took after they got on the trailer
Dont think I have ever seen it before. Thats a lot of times of getting stuck. I find it hard to believe someone would get stuck in our lovely red clay....LOL
THATS MY DAD JOSE!!!! Great video!!!! Much love and may god bless! 🙏🏼
@@aracelymaldonado9488 super nice and very knowledgeable guy. I enjoyed riding with him.

@@MorganOtt-ne1qj in a deleted scene Jose told me they cut from July to December. A LOT of experience each year.
That was very interesting. Wish I had smelly vision on my phn. I love the smell fresh cut corn.
That’s some cool equipment !!
@@johnscurlock1204 thanks for watching John!
My favorite thing on my Granddaddys dairy farm was cutting silage as a young boy. We blew it up into upright concrete silos. Sure miss those days.
@@dennisjenkins7040 my great grandfather had concrete silo and a pit. I vividly remember the smell of driving past the pit.
@PatrickShivers we had the pit too that was used before the silo came along. Still did use the pit some after silo would get full if needed.

@@DontbeWily thanks for watching. You’re describing the very purpose of this channel, to inform people the how and why’s of what farmers are doing.
Hello, Patrick! Returning to the past...
Looking for forward to corn results
@@brycekirby1567 me to
I have chopped several thousand acres of corn silage. I live in Iowa and I worked at a feedyard 30 years ago. We finished fat cattle.
@@myronparks3495 Iowa is pig country these days isn’t it?
@@PatrickShivers eastern Iowa is pig country. I live on the west side.
@@myronparks3495 I’ve driven through the southeast corner of Iowa. Pretty country. Never been to the west side
@PatrickShivers where I live the Missouri River is 1 mile west of me and the Loess Hills is 2 miles east
Dont think I have ever seen it before. Thats a lot of times of getting stuck. I find it hard to believe someone would get stuck in our lovely red clay....LOL
@@salt-team-six5883 when dude said “sometimes we get stuck 2-3 times per pass” I said “Hold on, let me cut my camera on and ask you that again!”
Interesting! I thought they liked the corn a little greener?
@@jackweeks8099 they do. This was cut just a little late, but will still make good beef cattle ration.
Howdy Patrick
@@tugboat2739 howdy Tug!
Did you get a weight on the loaded trucks?
@@jamespetty9545 yes. It’s in the video. They drive across scales just before unloading.
There no way that corn is 72 tons an acre. That is just impossible.
@@robbybachmann8061 he said 17. Later on, in a scene not included it was as high as 24.
