I am considering a mower change as the old claas is getting tired but still works but would need a nice few quid spent on it this year and what with zero % finance deals going at the moment , a new purchase isnt too difficult to justify.
So first up l only tend to cut heavy crops off permanent pasture.
It is mostly for hay or haylage
The mower will be linkage mounted and most likely 3 m or just maybe 3.5 m.
There will be no conditioner
The thing l am having difficulty with is choosing an end pivot model or a centre pivot.
Are the latter way better at following the ground or is the difference only marginal?
I know the end pivot is old hat but it has served me well.
Basically l guess l am asking is there a
" wow l wish l had that all these years "
factor with a centre pivot.
Workload is 300 acres / year.
Thanks.
