We use a clingfilm for wholecrop and then silostar on...

    I remember when.............

    All this canter about electronics, powershift transmissions, computer control etc just makes me smile when I cast my mind back to 1966 when a new Nuffield 10/60 arrived to boost a fleet of 460's. My Gosh - 10 gears instead of 5 just with another lever! Whatever will they think of next?

    silage wrap prices

    Any of you folks got prices for silage wrap yet? Getting told from rep today that any stock they have is standing on last years price (silotite £55) but any new stock is going to be considerably dearer!! Pulling a stunt or is this what others are finding?

    Vacuum Silage

    Are there any livestock farmers still making Vacuum Compressed Silage? It is a system that produces very high quality grass silage and used to be used in the 1960's and 1970's, but I may have been the last to use it in the UK when I retired in 2002.

    Coloured wrap, what's the point.

    Do those different colours make any odds to the bales, l very much doubt it, pink, green, white, and black.
