Ik it’s handy for the driver with the trailer to have the back loaded first so they can judge what’s into the trailer but, on wet ground, you have to load the front first as there is more weight on the wheels of the tractor rather than the trailers wheels. Just a tip for next year that you hopefully won’t need 👍
Fabulous share, I just loved that!. Italian ryegrass is 💪💪💪. It will be just fine!. It would be interesting to see your breeding approach on the dairy cows. Loved it. Interesting and informative 👍.
Good video, love that 1260, had a ten x for 22yrs, wanted a 1060 but bought a 5010 torro wagon cos of lack of help. Would love to go back to using a trailed harvester
Very nice harvester to lift with by the looks of it , I have a Jf 900 and very happy with it well mentioned is key , you need the extra power in front I find I’m running 140hp on my 900 had 165 on it before but was bit too hard on the machine I found!
We’ve done 5th cut had some challenges wet bales marked it a bit but all the marks seem to have gone after a week and the grass is coming back well and can’t see the marks from baling it as hauling it
problem with quick growing grass is it does not tiller out and make a turf , we are never putting any in again , good vid though , I respect you having the balls to post it
What is the main drop in the quality from the lab analysis from 1st to 5th cut? Obviously DM, what else? Would imagine all 5th cut is good for is dry cows? Great videos man!
Would dropping the tire pressures way down be any addition to lessen the marking of the fields when mowing? Or would it be pretty minuscule? I feel like that’s something you would have tried already!😂
I use to run a 1260 in fact I done some of the prototype work on it, it was a fantastic machine, I was chopping around 3000 acres a year but I just couldn't live with the depreciation on it so I had to move to a self propelled forager, good luck with yours like I said it's a fantastic machine
There is a 1460 as well with a 900 mm drum, but it can only take a max of 280hp same as the 1260, so my question is would there be any more capacity with a 1460 with the same input?
That Italian kinda grass Is a lot slippery than normal grass cause it’s very open. An u need to invest in a couple a hand held radios Ther mighty job to chat to trailer men lol
We had fields a couple of years ago and couldn't get it cut (3rd cut) we left it and didn't touch it all winter, we sowed fertiliser only in April and we cut it for silage in late May and it was grand and the sward had some Italian
@FarmTheoryNI if you need anything let me know I'm not working there anymore but myself and the old foreman are setting up our own business and still do work on jf harvesters
Don't worry when you have 500k subscribers you tube will pay for the reseeding, you need to be controversial/bog some fields and break stuff for the views , in farming that's easy enough done😂
We get huge amounts of rain over winter. So we harvest grass to feed when the cows can't be outside in the fields. We graze the cows for 200 days a year.
