[QUOTE="puppet, post: 7007825, member: 25962"] You should be having 2 cuts that far south and just need to spend time taking the sheet off. It's only once extra. It picks all the grass, chop is short enough for sucklers, best done before too stemmy. Have you a big tractor as you need one so we use contractors. We have done 6 years now and like it. Short hauls help and average around 3 loads/30 tons or 5 acres an hour which for a medium tractor and buckrake gives time for rolling. Sometimes had 2 wagons but[ATTACH type="full"]889875[/ATTACH] need extra tractor for rolling then. Main advantage is one phone call to the contractor instead of finding 4 tractors and trailers and all the extra diesel. Far less compaction in a wetter spell as only 1 machine. Disadvantage is you do not have 4 extra folk to sheet the pit. We make around 1000 + tons. Plenty pictures on other threads. [/QUOTE]
