[@1planenut62]

When I was a kid in middle GA, we lived on a diary farm with 2 pit silos dug in the side of a hill, similar to these above ground ones. We'd pull the wagons in with one set of wheels on the sides, then turn into the pit with the wagons. Unload on the way down, then out and back to the field. We used a M Farmall to pack between loads. Neat to see this still going on. I thought this 'old style' wasn't used any more. This video brings back good memories.

[@PSchuler92]

Many farms here in Sweden don’t use upright silos anymore, instead they use U-Bunkers like the one you see in the video, they compact grass and chopped maize in them for feeding the cattle. I have seen shredded sugar beets go in and be blended among the chopped maize, but that was at a biogas plant in Germany.

Hi. From NW Ohio. I can recall filling silage with my father in the 70s. I was 5,6,7,8,9 then he sold out. We had three ( 1948,48, and a 50). Farmall M's and 3 second hand Gehl wooden wagons. The oldest M sat on the blower and PTO'd for all two days and nights. I recall sitting by it while dad chopped with a 2 row NEW IDEA. The rings were worn so badly she'd belch out the occasional burning cinder of blow by...Man,. I loved it. None of our tractors ever had a decent battery so we always had to Hill start em. YOU BE SAFE NOW YA HEAR ME???!! It aint no easy job thats for sure. Farming IS intense 24/7 work. We milked three times a day and IT wore my parents out. Dad worked thirds in a steel mill to pay the bills. ( that is still the case if you were really poor ) Speaking of CASE, my g'pa had two. A 970 and a 1070 comfort cab...It had AIR CONDITIONING!!! Take care, God Bless and THANK YOU for FEEDING THE WORLD!
