[@noelhickey1684]

Good man on the pit,must be a bit of a draw with all those trolleys

[@MCMilkingIt]

Ya about 10 or 12km

[@faFsman]

Very efficient, clean work, top job. It will be interesting to hear how the silage results do, it looked nice stuff.

[@padraigking5185]

Good stuff

[@adriant900]

Great work lads. Does the contractor always leave the loader for ye to cover it? If they were under pressure and couldn't how would you get the tires up on the pit?

[@faFsman]

They have a jcb of their own

[@MCMilkingIt]

Normally they would help cover it or if they are under pressure they do have 2 loaders so they can always leave one behind and maybe someone with it

[@MCMilkingIt]

Only trouble with the 4cx is if the pit is too steep the jacks hit the concrete when you try to climb. If it's not too steep it's ok

[@patrickbrennan6449]

Did you feed any of your 1st cut silage? Fine pit of silage you have.

[@MCMilkingIt]

No nothing fed yet, bit of 3rd cut left to go in

[@CalbertBennett]

Do you spray off any of your grass fields with herbicides before ploughing or any form of cultivation

[@MCMilkingIt]

Yes if we are going reseeding we normally spray off first
