GRASSMEN are the fast-paced, global agriculture phenomenon whose video content and merchandise are recognised worldwide. The business was started in 2009 by current director Gareth Gault, known to fans as ‘Donkey’. His love and passion for machinery allowed him to experiment with cameras and upload content to TH-cam. To his surprise, a large following soon developed and the niche in the market for real-life, documentary, farming and machinery action made it possible to drive the brand forward.
We at GRASSMEN, pride ourselves on providing an exclusive look into agricultural manufacturers, meeting real, working farmers, showing and demonstrating tractors and machinery through all seasons such as silage and slurry and ultimately educating and entertaining our fans.
If you love all things agriculture from top manufacturers such as John Deere, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, JCB, Land Rover and many many more, come and join #teamgrassmen, we would love to have you!

ran a demo pottinger vc160 on some hay.
impressed me,

[@SlyFoxl]

And it ended with me buying it. Started around june 15 and got 1400 bales out of it before our current rainy days. It makes proper high quality bales 👍

[@Modlendingen]

Nice baler for sure! Would have been interesting putting against some other vario baler/wrappers as well, the Fendt Rotana and McHale Fusion Vario. I think bigger bales is the way to go if you don't have a pit or a silo. Just wondering when we see the first squarebaler with a wrapper behind ;)

[@christiaanboer6053]

i think it would get very long, but it might work

[@Grassmen]

Suppose it is possible to be fair.

[@jascollinscork]

Is this the baler that was dropped back to Clonmel last week🤔 👀😀

[@Kablemo]

Whats the idea behind having one clear film and one black, havent seen it before, is clear film cheaper?

[@Grassmen]

Probably just a coincidence.

[@7810ftw]

i think your turbo isnt right on the 820 , my 820 doesn't squeal like that

[@mattafakkah]

I think your the one with a bad turbo on your 820... they make that sound on high rpm's

[@7810ftw]

@@mattafakkah mine is spot on thank you

[@mattafakkah]

@@7810ftw If you say so

[@Grassmen]

I could be wrong but I think it's possibly some of the baffles in the exhaust causes the squealing!

are the engineers of this company playing around with being able to feed chopped maize into it to make round bales of corn silage.

Cheers boss

[@darrenbarclay4833]

I don't see the point of the bale rotating just before the wrapper starts should just start warping that bale straight away and wounder how the transfer of bales is like on hills

[@davidporter9556]

It seemed to tidy up the tale of the barrel wrap
