I don’t disagree that claas appears to be the most popular brand but they seem to make a bit of an untidy job in my rather unqualified opinion, especially in heavier crops. They’ve got excellent dealer back up here though so always assumed that was why so many use them.On brand, how many contractors do you see not running Claas mowers?
I have an old Claas dicso 3050 plain mower. I bought it second hand and it's suffered thousands of acres of abuse here. It cuts some huge silage crops destined for the dry cow clamp and probably does 4-500 acres pre mowing each year. Today it is cutting docks, thistles and rushes on undulating pp parkland. When we finally kill it I'll look to replace it with an identical one.
