[QUOTE="DGC1, post: 459786, member: 680"] Sorry james, i have to disagree re not getting same volume in. If the wagon silage is spread in layers and rolled between every load with enough weight then it will match even the best chopper teams at packing grass in. Not trying to diss shovels but with wagons running a fendt 900 can shift grass very very fast from the pit floor and this leaves it time to roll even with 3 wagons running at it. Its faster at rolling than shovel on steep face and even with two wagon loads tipped end to end it will drive out through the loads and up the pit pushing grass ahead of it. The pit is rock solid once its done so weight & hp DO make the difference. We trialled many pit setups in 2012/2013 and a very big tractor proved the best every time with the wagon silage. Never tried it in sp chop so cant comment but for wagon silage big tractor is best. [/QUOTE]
