Best swath wilter ?

[Yale]

Due to some huge crops we have been picking some fields up straight out of the row with the silage wagon.

Putting 2 rows into one after tedding out is creating lumps and problems in these conditions.

Currently we haven’t got a swath wilter however one may be useful for fluffing up the rows especially when they’ve had a shower like today.

Is there much between the makes or are some better than others,i.e.agressiveness etc.?

Not sure any of them are useful tbh.

Lift a swath to make room then use a single rotor to move it over/fluff it up seems to work much better.

I know a chap who does a bit of wagon silage for himself, tried a few machines for this exact problem, even that old teagle wuffler thing, all pretty much meh, bought mower that can drop grass in a wide 'blanket' and a single rotor claas rake.

Yeah,we used to have an old single rotor years ago and did that.

Neighbour only has a swathwilter and runs up and down the rows instead of spreading.

Seems to work OK

We've a Connor, its been no bother.

The wufflers with a mower grouper on back look a good idea as your moving grass/straw onto dry ground. We're going to try to fit one to ours!

Fransgard make one. Not sure how useful they are, I may be wrong but if I remember correctly @puntabrava had one.
