Love your videos Mike . The tractor with no front wheel assist looked odd until I took a better look at it Thank you for your videos . I like all your videos but chopping silage is one of my favorites .
Glad to see they cut their corn fairly short, some farms seem to cut it two feet high. Maybe better nutrition but leaves a lot of tonnage in the field. My Dad always said “ an inch on the bottom equals a foot extra foot on top”. That was when we were filling uprights. Also surprised they do use bunker walls to get more capacity on same square footage of floor. Great videos.
Very nice looking equipment and great setup and do you do custom work or is this your own place I'm from upstate NY and I enjoyed your videos and can't wait to see more videos of corn and especially when you start combine videos of corn thanks for the videos and stay safe and love the view of the fields and the farm
Those big 7 series two wheel drive tractors just look alien like with the small front ends. I guess if you don't need the front wheel assist, no sense in spending the extra $$$. Nice videos, Mike!
Great video Mike, really enjoyed the great shots. I was wondering how long it took for a silage pile to ferment and cure but you answered it lol I had always wondered about that.
It still seem odd seeing so many high horsepower 2wd tractors especially and duals rather than ones with front wheel assist and wide singular tyres like the LSWs. I know a lot of it is down to where the a lot is row cropped where the only crops here sown by precision planters are basically vegetables, beets and maize along with the simplicity of 2wd but it still seems odd
Well Mike, I have ask this before with no answer. So I'll ask again. Does the swirling of the cornstalks as they are cut have any effect on the operator watching hour after hour? It looks to me that it may have a hypnotizing effect.
this was shot at our farm and we own everything that you see other than the 8130 with a silage blade and and the meyer rt220 wagon we rent from our cousins and than my family runs the chopper three wagons and two guys run the two tractors that are on the pile
it could handle a larger head but the limiting factor with the head on it is hp. A bigger head would just mean a slower speed but the same acres an hour

Oh, Lord!! These videos make me want to go there and work on those fields. Nothing more satisfying than watching this. Respect from Brazil!!
Concordo plenamente!
Now that's some impressive shooting, straight backwards over the tractor and into the trailer behind!
Silage oh how I love the smell of fresh cut silage

Great footage Mike! Enjoy all the angles and shots you get out in the field and back at the bunk. You’re a Pro!! Thanks again!

Hello from northeast Ohio Mike. Thanks for the video. We're about 3-4 weeks out from soybean harvest. Can't wait!! Have a good weekend!👍👌
Excellent, love corn chopping videos, thanks Mike
Nice video. A couple of those tractors were in need of some new tires.
Great awesome video mike , it is that time once again to chop corn 🌽 silage , corn and beans are around the corner too
Great video Mike. Love the music. Peace and love from wisconsin.
O yes let the good times roll, corn silage always means fall is right around the corner👍🏻
They were cutting up in sidney ohio today! Good to see the chopping happening! Cool video mike
Love the corn silage videos!

Great corn silage action😉👍awesome drone shots😁👍
Nice video👍
Good video thanks for sharing Mike STAY SAFE & GOD BLESS from Georgia..

Peewee.31 the 7800 looks okay the 7930 no so much
Peewee.31 7230 is okay to but yeah I see you point
Love the lineup on that farm! Great video
That John Deere 7830 is wasted as a 2wd.. Never seen a tractor that big in 2wd format.!! Nice vid tough. Cheers from Ireland. 🇮🇪👍
I like your videos, from the imperial co California.
That is a big cart!
Another Awsome video Mike
Woo that was close. I ducked and still got a haircut. :)
WOW
TECHNOLOGY
PROGRAM WORKING
Hey Mike! Nice video today!
Why do the Packers at the bunk have so much extra time?
Jaguar on the run! 😉👍🏻
Those behind the tractor on the silage pile are train wheels?
Great video Mike, really enjoyed the great shots. I was wondering how long it took for a silage pile to ferment and cure but you answered it lol I had always wondered about that.
That’s gotta be bouncy not having weights on the front end of the 7830 while pulling a cart
I'm curious have you ever seen anyone use a smaller land roller to pack silage??
Hi Mike, watching your videos from liverpool England, this stuff is so interesting. Is the corn silage just unripe corn?
It still seem odd seeing so many high horsepower 2wd tractors especially and duals rather than ones with front wheel assist and wide singular tyres like the LSWs. I know a lot of it is down to where the a lot is row cropped where the only crops here sown by precision planters are basically vegetables, beets and maize along with the simplicity of 2wd but it still seems odd
How many days to harvest that field ?
Well Mike, I have ask this before with no answer. So I'll ask again. Does the swirling of the cornstalks as they are cut have any effect on the operator watching hour after hour? It looks to me that it may have a hypnotizing effect.
LOL I don't think so.
Mike great stuff - watching from down under -Queensland Australia
A question - how many tons per acre.
krabbi metric 1000 kg or 2240 lbs, US 2000 lbs
Yay new video and what is silage?
New subscriber here. Have you mentioned what this corn is for? Enjoy your work!
Corn silage is fed to cattle.
Those look like train tires on the 3-pt hitch packer tractor?
Is this custom harvest or does the farm own the equipment and the help?
this was shot at our farm and we own everything that you see other than the 8130 with a silage blade and and the meyer rt220 wagon we rent from our cousins and than my family runs the chopper three wagons and two guys run the two tractors that are on the pile
does the farm use the vertical silos and if so what for?
I know they use them for haylage and wheatlage.
👍
Does the 8300 have a sticky valve?
Might need an exhaust manifold
👍👍
Finally👍👍
Hello!
City slicker here, cant they put a larger head on that harvester so they don't have to make so many passes?
Larger head needs more horsepower.
it could handle a larger head but the limiting factor with the head on it is hp. A bigger head would just mean a slower speed but the same acres an hour
That chopper close to 800hp takes a lot of power to chop forage especially corn.
I’m really really confused about the comments on here
I removed the creepy ones.
@@farmhandmike looks like some more need to be removed. Sick people...
