[QUOTE="puppet, post: 8098883, member: 25962"] They have a weigh cell, our contractor has it set to 10 tons so 17 tons gross. A lot more grass than your average 12 ton trailer. On a longer haul you would need 2 wagons so they will seem to be wasting time carting rather than cutting but alternative is 6 trailers which cost a lot in hire and fuel too and have idle time between loading following the forager round the field. 150 litres per trailer and forager at 300l gives 1200l per day. 2 wagons maybe 500l to do a similar area. £700 saving.
