That compactor does a great job, very impressed
It really does, have to see it to understand the difference!
Your commentary when you got into the New Holland was priceless.
what would the poor garsoon do if he had to spend the day on a 8210......................

Finally… an Irish man that fills the trailer to the right. The side that make sense in all types of silage lifting machinery.
Im irish and agree with you.Far less painful on your neck too.
Not when his trailer is designed to fill from other side. He's just throwing a fair bit back on floor.If a contractor did that here he'd either change or be off the job.
@@jimr9762so I’m my mind the trailer has been set up wrong (or Irish spec). Think they are also borrowed trailers and he’s not contracting it his own so he can throw as much as he wants.
No it doesnt as other harvesters the spout is further to the other side of the machine, also the trailer man has the harder job so its best to make it easier for him to see, His trailers are also designed to be filled on the opposite side and are sitting far too far off would help if they got a bit closer, also to finish this filling nonsense what side does a combine spout fill from ;p
Saving his neck a bit but losing loads of grass. If he’d have filled the proper side he wouldn’t have to watch the trailer as much as the crates are set up for him.
i never tire of watching the silage harvest. got the extended silage sides on the wrong side of the trailers
andrew i remember standing on beside your dad on the big hill field at doogary when he was mowing ,, a mf 135 and pz 165 what a difference from then to now....
Wooow! 😅 Imagine another 40 years!
Come on Andrew most men would do 14 hours per day at silage, keep the videos coming I enjoy them
Always explained with a smile. Appreciated
The commentary for the New Holland was like listening to 2 men Laurel and Hardy 😂 great video well done.
Glad you enjoyed it. 😅
That’s some going 140 acres in 2 days, well done 👌🏻👍🏼
At some point I will really push and see what we can get done in one long day!
@4.45mins ....."Jeekers man drive forward 10 foot son, i cant cope", quote required there ,,😁
Awwww man, wish I thought of that!
Fair play to even trying to make a video while running a trailed chopper. Great video! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great video, interesting that you fill to the right which makes sense to me as the controls are to the right , however trailers are geared for left in all parts of Ireland.
You should get some one the convert those trailers so the board is on the other side would make life a lot easier
I really should. I must get that done next week.
Great video. Need to get a system going with the trailer drivers so they know what you’re thinking in the absence of 2 way radios… you fill from the back and they drop back as the load fills or visa versa with a few and hand signals if needed. FairPlay to the MF Dealer but the 8S is too new to be giving any trouble? Keep up the good work.
Jf’s also really don’t like dry grass. With there drum and blower combined they aren’t able to create enough blow. Those kongkilde versions need north of 300 hp to get them working really well. Put a NH315 on it last year and that really made her sing
The 1260 runs best between 25 and 35% dm
You need a limit switch wired up to the pick up reel to turn the inoculant pump off when the reel is up.
gotta laugh at armchair experts with "you need" comments.
I want one to detect crop flow, I must build it.
Fine job. 👍 Sally says hi too.
Hi Sally. 👋
Great work
Good stuff
Good crop of silage Andrew, always explained very well, JD trailer man drives like a Mexican .. should be trying to fill the trailer like the other's do!
Nice job and well done thats a nice lift in the time you were at it, do you find any saving putting your own grass in? I used to do all my own but got a contractor the last 4 years i don't see much difference myself but i guess that depends on what each guy charges, however they are much harder on ground than your own outfit without a doubt.
I don't think there is much financial saving, the benefits of doing your own are mainly better silage.
If you want to fill trailers on the wrong side . Tell the trailer boys to look over their left shoulder at you and the forager😊👍
Give the blade a good sharpening good crop just need to slow down picking it
I'm not a fan of slow. 😅
greetings from down south. only started following your vids fairly recently. Excellent as always and delivered with good humour despite the pressure so fair play!
in what way was the JF struggling? It looked golden on the video!
I normally can go a fair bit faster and the heavy grass puts a lot of pressure on it.
Song Choice 👌
Could you do a quick calculation on the pit size and how much tonne was pitted from your 170 acres?
Sure, give it a week or two and I will try and work it out. 👍
Get a few walkie talks for the silage.
Fine pit of silage.👍
Thanks 👍
I was also so confused when I first drive a new Holland about when your in reverse the gears go the opposite way I was reversing and accidentally went into top gear thinking I was downshifting
I think its a bit of driver error at the end there,Only fault i have had in a newholland cab was the guys seat was broken so it was sitting on the deck,she was remapped from 175 to 268 and piles of power
Absolutely was. 😅
@@FarmTheoryNI what was she anyway? Range command?
@@zzirSnipzz1I’d say dynamic command by the badge in the side of bonnet and the changing from c1 to b6, and the fact the gears were “backwards” I’m guessing shifting with the paddle, it takes a minute or 2 to get the head into it but it’s the same as the dyna 4 masseys (62x0 etc)with the dyna on the forward reverse lever
Good.man yaself some.job and set.up.great surprise not out in country.
Dry matter loss ,, spilling grass 😅😅😅😅😅
True story
How do you calculate the amount of innoculant that you are applying per tonne? I have similar set up on the baler and its really hard to guage it correctly. Baler forward speed probably varies more than the JF. A flow meter would be the job but crazy expensive
It's hard to judge, I need a better way to do it.
Want get gerry 6420 fill them trailers with the john deere
Why didn’t you just swap the solenoid on the back for the 540 one and carry on , much easier and quicker than swapping tractors
In hindsight that would have been the best option.
Great Video, I second @bobuncle8704's comment about the commentary in the New Holland, I loved the stress and frustration, what's the JF model? thanks for sharing
1260
@@FarmTheoryNI Thank you
Met the 8s and 2 sowers on the way home from work and men nearly broke necks in the van 😂
I get some funny looks for sure. 🤣
If he has a Case, why can he not drive a New Holland?
Im not convinced on a silage compactor. Seems it it taking psi from the tractor tyres and spreading it more evenly across the top.
Your tractor psi is the same as the air pressure in your tyres... So very low.
What do you mean you don’t like new Hollands. Case is basically a new Holland painted red
Or the opposite
It doesn't have to be logical. 😅
Great video. If you didnt cover the pit that night would you roll it the next day or leave it before you cover it.
Leave it if it was well rolled the night before.
What 8s have you got. What do you think of her????
265. I really like it, the cab is great
That camera seems a lot clearer than usual.
I turned up the frame rate, very well spotted. 🤣
What’s the reason of having the silage pits under roof
Less effluent to gather, sheds can store machinery/calves/fertiliser. Plastic sheeting is dry as are the tyres, much nicer to work with. Can store hay or straw on top of the silage. Pit face is dry through the winter. Silage that falls on the concrete can be scrapped up and fed and not mixed with a load of wet rot if there was no roof. You basically get twice the use out of your silage pits if they’re roofed.
See Barrett's comment. He is spot on.
i've designed a box that i want to have 3d printed, but ive no idea which material to use, it's a prototype, but if it works it'll be permanent, so i don't want to spend alot but also don't want it destined to fail.
options are FMD plastic, SLA resin, SLS nylon, which one would you suggest?
sorry looked back on your past videos, "ASA", thanks for the info
ASA is great but hard to print with.
@@FarmTheoryNI it will be printed by jlcpcb.
Why do you not have a self-propelled forage harvester
Loves the snort of a JF and the tractor can do other things when they are not not doing silage. Essentially he is a farmer not a.contractor and he can justify a bigger tractor than a dairyman would normally have.
At 20.50 your pit uncompacted itself 😂
What did you leave on the whole way down the road? I couldn't understand that bit? Great vid
The innculator. So I put my ecosyl on the road!
which part of the country are you located?
Omagh, Norn Iron
And this is exactly why I prefer a contractor.
Thats just laziness
Fair enough!
It's just opportunity cost. I spend my time rather with cows and milk three times per day than sitting on a tractor. The contractor can do all in one day. The contractor has all right machines and good people. If they break down I don't pay and they have backup. But off course every farm and farmer are different. I do pay alot but if I plan early for a cut I am first and they finished with my field before the rain starts.
Surprised you do not side sheet
It's a pain in the butt all winter
There all the same now days. The difference is in the in cab controls
And we never found out why the cows were still in the house
And we never will. 🤣
Hearing that your able to lift 140 acres in 18.5 hours with a trailed harvester makes me laugh at the contractor i work for mainly do pits just because they want a pit at home but it took us 2.5 days to lift 50 acres a few days ago with a jf900 including about 9 hours of breakdown time and we work from roughly 9 til dark
That's rough!! 😂
What's the song at 12.40 please?
In the description!
👍👍👍.
Y the rough side
I should make a tiktok about this ... 😅
How much acres in total do you cut, Andrew?
140!
Want to swap jobs 😉
What the music please
In the description!
Looking for a job any thing going
you did well not to swear in that video
😅
Is there anything more annoying than the creaking out of the Massey mirror holders 🤮
I know!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
🙏🙏🇮🇪🇮🇪👍👍💪💪
Why do u fill the trailer on right side trailer have high side to be filled on left side what is your reason ?
Because you have to look over that way so you don’t block the real and it would be very awkward trying to look over both of your shoulders
Ye seen that wonder could ya not swap the extension on too the other side
English isn't working
Could just a side of the trailer off.
@@dgmxm175 doesn't work like that on those trailers apparently
Jf going well 👍
It was!
