Very professional and informative. We only did conventional stave silos when I was on the farm. Excellent drone footage. Once again thanks for letting me farm from my sofa haha.
Never seen any bagger work up close, this was a real treat to watch! That rotary head is the cat's ass when you have wind damage in the field! The last corn I chopped for my uncle was with a two row pull type and I remember some corn down from the wind and that head wouldn't follow the rows very well!
Those truck ag baggers do a nice job and yes can put up ALOT of feed. The bagger we use could push our trucks as we dumped. Our trucks are rear unload HnS and meyers boxes. Love your guys vids
Excellent video great explanation didn't know a cable was pulled through the feed like that thought it worked with the braking system on the tires thanks for your time
Nice bagger , no back stop or side cables to deal with. Your lucky to have a nice place to put the bags most guys have them in the mud up to there ass with too much waste . Good luck chopping ,lots of rain here.
Great vid andy. Thats a nice bagger, we have an old kelly ryan with the back stop and cables its a bit of a pain to set up and pretty old it doesn't get much use anymore for feed. We mainly use it to bag sawdust bedding, and that is about the worst job to have do.
Great video Andy, I've always wondered how exactly those bags were filled. I have also seen round hay bales wrapped and looks similar. I didn't hear you mention how you get feed out of these bags...? Seems to me they'd be a pain to get feed out of no? Thanks for taking us along, Cheers
See a lot of these bags at farms in my area now I know how they are filled and sealed this City Boy is always learning something new from you guys thanks
Wow, as from 10.25 the thing goes into high gear! Feels as if you've got someone from the "Mission Impossible" film team in on the music production side. 😎
The dairy where I used to feed cow's at used the ag bag. It was a pain in the rear when we had to cut them open and make sure not to get any pieces of the bag in the feed trk and make sure we didn't feed any pieces to the cows.
Just curious what he charges per ton to bag silage....here in Nebraska hardly anyone bags but we've been looking to try it and minimize our spoilage.... love the videos and streaming, always something interesting!!
Video is very interesting. What determines whether you bag it, put it in conventional silo, or put it in the bunks ( or does only haylage go in bunks)?
@@FarmingFixingFabricating you're right about costs. Our cutter that retired bagged for pretty much the same price as the new cutters charge for packing our bunks by the time we pay for the plastic etc. But we prefer the bunkers now that we built them.
12 foot tunnel is in the neighborhood of 1.5-2 tons per foot depending on what you’re bagging. There are vents you can buy that you put in the bags or you can cut small holes and tape shut later.
Have you ever stated in your videos the dangers of the gases coming off the bags, pits or silos so the non farmers understand not to mess with these things, they are deadly, till the contents are cured and off gassed
The ensiling process produces "silo gas" during the early stages of the fermentation process. Silage gas contains nitric oxide (NO), which will react with oxygen (O2) in the air to form nitrogen dioxide (NO2), which is toxic. Lack of oxygen inside the silo can cause asphyxiation.
