corn silage and snaplage 2024

[@traviskaehne906]

Love seeing the old iron doing the work yet. 1586 and 806 putting up some amazing feed

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

I don't have much interest in new tractors. These old girls don't take long to pay for themselves . Thanks

I had the rope for the swing hitch, on the haybine, tied to the seat, it hooked the pto, and almost pulled the seat off! That sure woke me up !

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Wow, I bet it did 😳. Really show a person just how fast a catastrophe can happen with those pto's

[@duaneschmitz2674]

Matt just wanted to make sure you and family are doing ok have a good holiday 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Yes sir, everyone is doing really well 👍. Dad got a clean scan the other day, so hopefully he'll be in good shape for a few years. Thanks 🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@farawayfarm2520]

Good to see the feed piling up. I could watch corn getting pulled into a Kemper head all day. Wonderful invention.

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

It sure is. Thanks will 🍻🍻🍻

[@pinesedgefarm1155]

I had one of those cables wrapped around the shaft too. That'll be nice having the Case available for other things. Looks like you scored on the chopper for the most part. 🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Just goes to show how fast a pto can cause catastrophe. Glad to have the Ole comfort King back👍👍🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@danaedwards5464]

nice job on the weights for the chopper and hope your Dad is doing okay

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Thanks. He's doing good 👍

Silage, earlage, and snaplage are all products made from corn that differ in the amount of the plant that is included: Silage Made from the entire corn plant, usually starting about 6 inches above the ground Earlage Similar to snaplage, but typically doesn't include the husk and has little of the shank Snaplage Includes the entire ear of corn, including the husk, cob, grain, and part of the shank

The latest video to watch on Dr John Campbell "Cancers"

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

I'll look that up. Thanks

[@bryanginder5903]

Classing up the Deere with some Massey combine weights!👍

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Yes sir 👍

[@kvboldtimefarming3499]

great video, and you have some nice corm

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Thanks 👍

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Man yeah!!! Loved every min of it!! Anxious to hear, did the hydraulics work out on the comfort king? Wouldn't be normal without breakdowns would it 🤦🏼 Hopefully the worm/mold issue worked itself out, I remember that last year😳 Man that was a pucker moment I'm sure on the cable deal 😳😳😳 I would LOVE to see any video on the parking paw repair 😉😉 Glad things went well and the process was alot quicker worh the new chopper and head. Thank you Matt for bringing us along, look fwd to seeing some rye and corn stalk bales!! Hope things are going well my friend!! 😁😁🇺🇲🇺🇲👌🏻👌🏻🌽🌽🌽🌾🌾🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

We've got hydraulics again 👍👍, the old case sure is getting used alot here lately. I'm sure happy with the chopper, it really sped things up this fall. Thank you sir 🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Good evening Matt. Damn, we had more than enough of that 100°💩 for the year!!

[@koryleague8833]

Great video. Glad to see ya back. Looks like you had a good harvest. Hows yourdad doing?

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Thanks. Dad's doing real good yet

[@lesterhertel2945]

Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Thanks for watching

[@jaykettlewell3922]

I totally understand why you have so many tractors. I've got an uncle who always told me you are better off having 5 or 6 old tractors than one new one. If you have one new one and it breaks down you are done for the day. If you have several older ones you just grab another tractor and keep going. Makes perfect sense when you think about it

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

It sure does. I also like that I can actually fix these old tractors instead of having to call a service tech with a computer to figure out what's wrong with them

[@keithrobinson1331]

Great weight bar Mat 🇺🇸🇺🇸🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

[@joeladinski789]

Always enjoy your videos, keep up the good work

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Thanks

[@duaneschmitz2674]

Glad to see you are saying business matt 🍻🍻🍻

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Thank you sir 🍻🍻🍻

[@stephenkeller6894]

I’d love to have that setup for earlage!

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

It works pretty good for it's age

[@stephenkeller6894]

@@hartungdairyfarm0713 we have the same vintage of a unit. Gehl 1000 with a snapper head on it lol

[@MissouriRob]

Should be against the law for someone to have that much fun...... it never ends. Looks like dad was a happy camper in that new chopper..... now it's time to haul manure👍🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

If I was having any more fun, I don't think I could live with myself 🤣🤣🤣. Dad sure likes the chopper 👍👍👍

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Be nice having another tractor running! I told you, you'd love that Kemper head! Parts are freaking outrageous!! And aren't near the quality they used to be..

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

It's good to have the old comfort King available for more jobs 👍. You were definitely 100 percent right on that Kemper head. Thanks Ed 🍻🍻🍻

[@red_power79]

Good to see the new chopper in action. Just curious how many acres of snaplage did u do?. Do u do enough for the whole year?

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

I did just about 20 acres, it probably will only last until late spring. I'd love to put up enough for the year if I had enough crop ground . Thanks

[@keithrobinson1331]

Maybe I missed why you need the weights on the back of the chopper?

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

In some of my fields, you have to go downhill and turn a corner , the wagons really like to push the back end of the chopper if it's not weighted down good. 🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@aaronjarvenpa1743]

Why is the corn being chopped so high off the ground ?

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Depends on what you're asking about. The part where the corn head was way up was when we were making snaplage. We only take the ears off when we do that. Also when we were making silage, we ended up cutting a little high because we hadn't gotten a feel for the height of the Kemper head yet. We've got it dialed in pretty good now
