First cut silage 2019, mowing the grass.

[@mp40submachinegun81]

Great to see how you guys do things vs here in Canada. Great to see your MF 35 still sees the field our 135 is only used to run augers for grain silos. You should do a video showing all of your tractors and equipment. Love the videos keep up the great work!

[@phattlezshey3473]

Well done Dan great video 👍👍

[@themeparkkieran4573]

Massey Ferguson is my favourite brand and class is my 2nd so nice to see you using both

[@whiterazer1]

Dutch dairy farmer here. Very nice machinery you've got there! We are doing things in a similar fashion. We already have been using double mowers for many years, but last year we purchased a Tera Vitesse forage wagon. The cows graze, and in addition we load fresh grass and mix it into the TMR, but not during summer or winter (then we use regular silage in our TMR). May I ask why you have chosen a disc front mower rather than a drum front mower? To my understanding disc mowers can't quite match drum mowers' capability to create a narrow swath. This is important to avoid driving over the grass, especially when directly loading fresh cut grass with the forage wagon. Furthermore drum mowers might be able to take more rough handling. The front mower is commonly used to push into corners etc.

Hey I like farming I'm only a kid I wanna be a farmer when I grow up

[@cianmccarthy8051]

Ran a 3200C on the back of a Claas Arion 640. Some piece of kit

[@casto-]

Looking good Dan 👍 I'm hoping to get a similar set up but an old school one for my trac. Did I spot an old 600 series in the back?

[@CowfarmerDan]

Yes, there's a 698 there. If you go back a few videos to the bedding cattle in straw yards one it's in that.

[@casto-]

I'll have a butchers! We've a 698 with after market turbo on. She's a fair rig 😊

[@astonmcleod5344]

Dan, good video, explaining the thinking behind your investments makes an interesting video. where do you farm? All the best from Melbourne Australia.

[@CowfarmerDan]

Wiltshire, in the south of England.

[@djdfarminglife731]

so dose the cows go out to the fields at all

[@benjaminbauer4883]

DidGaming Gaming there do but when there is a shortage of grass on the farm where the cows can graze they will cut the grass from other fields and bring it to the cows. It’s is cheaper to have the cows graze than it is to cut and carry(zero grazing)

[@davidwhittredge3416]

Nice looking setup Dan, what where the large leaf plants in the grass?

[@senankeane]

Docks

[@steviechalmers1218]

For a first cut it’s not that heavy ‘ great video though 👍

[@ianthomas3938]

Two very different swaths? The front looks like a plain mower no conditioner maybe? Good video content as usual thank you Dan

[@nickaf5262]

Ian Thomas front mower doesn’t spread the grass so the swath goes between tractor wheels

[@ianthomas3938]

@@nickaf5262 oh yeah thanks Jack

[@jimr9762]

@@nickaf5262 The difference is much more exaggerated here than others I have seen.

[@CowfarmerDan]

Both mowers have conditioners.

Is that your tractor

[@CowfarmerDan]

Yes.

[@dereklitchfield7574]

Your makeing us sea sick mooring bought

[@christhemilkman1]

The rear mower looks like it is spreading the grass and the front mower looks like it isn't spreading the grass, can't the front mower spread grass.

[@CowfarmerDan]

Yes it can, but didn't want the tractor wheels running on the swath as the ground is damp.

[@danielmccallister7719]

Is there something funny about the wheels of this tractor?

[@CowfarmerDan]

No, just standard wheels.
