First cut silage 2019 on Alan's Farm. With the pro's and con's of having your own Machinery, find out Alan's perspective and when does the stress take away the enjoyment. Will the Harvester find the flails in the grass?

When your doing your own silage, sometimes it’s better because you can work with the weather. When a dry spell comes you can start right away and not waiting for a contractor.

Yes Luke that's very true, though I have been caught with the flip side where the contractors would have been quicker and had the grass in before the rain came

Big problem these days is getting drivers gathered up when you need them

How much would he be Saving by cuttin his own time etc etc,,,?

@alanclyde8253 5 жыл бұрын

It's a tough one Liam. I think a lot of the time we don't count our own time. Depends on how many acres I'm dropping and if any break downs eat up the savings.

@farmflix 5 жыл бұрын

That's a much discussed debate. I suppose it all depends on each individuals circumstances and set up

@@liamfanny9802 Your right,getting drivers and paying labour is tough. hearing prices £50 to £60. If my machines go done I don't think I'd be rushing out to buy new gear
