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

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.

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

Many mower men have said keeping the window shut has saved them from a stone or blade coming off

Never open back window when cutting. The window could save your life. Open side window so you can hear her running noise
