    Thats a poor argument. Anyone who is put off by someone else running is not who we need in said position.

    Staffing Requirements

    Thinking about this as well. Against a 70k diet feeder, 80k telehandler, 70k tractor and wages. Probably stacks up depending on layout even without the grant.

    What silage clamps have people built recently.

    What silage clamps have people built recently. Don't want to do posts and panels as I have a couple and can't stand putting the side sheets up on them. Wonder if I could just do a concrete pad and use L shape panels for the walls maybe 6ft or 8ft high?

    Given where milk price might be, what fert is now and what you can lock in straights for. I think it will be another very profitable year.

    Converting 3m Cambridge roller to a silage compactor.

    Agreed. A company up the road make them. Ill have to get one made a bit narrower and lighter than the standard. Don't think our tractors will be man enough for a full size one.

    Converting 3m Cambridge roller to a silage compactor.

    I've got 70 years worth of tractor weights to hang off a frame. I think that if there isn't enough weight in the wheels it will just stall instead of turning?

    Converting 3m Cambridge roller to a silage compactor.

    Could I cut the draw bar off a 3m Cambridge roller, weld on a 3 point linkage, add some weights and use it as compactor. Would the rings still turn okay on the axle or would they stall?

    Very few people block calf properly its all about calving between the 4th of January and the 4th of December. Last few weeks beef only so you have no calves on milk over Christmas.
