Those john deere 3040 and 3140 tractors were incredibly great tractors, know 1 who bought in 1979 a 3040,still going today at 28.000 hours. Engine sleeves change 2 times plus brakes but what great substance.
I can remember this is the way silage was done in the 80's, Zetor Crystal 8011 two wheel drive, ford 7600 power plus two wheel drive, ford 7000 all with home made trailers and a Michigan 35 loading shovel with London Brick still on the side of it in blue lettering

The 2 3040 John deeres with the opu cabs with yellow roof look great 👍
Judging by the accents I’m guessing north Kerry/ Limerick area maybe?
Class video,brings back a lot of great memories from the 80s drawing silage with a deutz dx 90,the lads are living the dream
CAT 910 the best pound for pound loader CAT ever built. All down hill after that for silage anyway.
Brilliant video 👏👏
Who were the contractors and where based?
