  • 3 Choppers Filling 1 Truck - Corn Silage Harvest
    Video from Convoy Ohio Of three Self Propelled Forage Harvesters all with 12 row corn heads filling one truck.
    Hall Ag Services was chopping corn silage at a Dairy Farm near Convoy Ohio with their John Deere 9800i choppers and K&L Tractor out of Fort Recovery Ohio brought out a new Claas Jaguar 990 chopper and Kenn Feld Equipment out of Van Wert Ohio brought out a new Deere 9900i chopper. Several of the guys ran both machines to compare. I will have an upcoming video on that but after all this they lined up all three choppers and filled one truck with 3 choppers for this video.
    This video was just for fun as normally they would not be chopping corn silage like this.

    I remember as a kid when we upgraded from a 1 row corn head to a 2 row and eventually 3 rows...the power it took... Now to chop 12 rows WITH a kernel processor...unbelievable!

      @emmaleamcelhinney8650 4 роки тому

      Yes! Most of the time silage is used for dairy cows, but it can be great feed for any other cattle that is not on lush pasture. I’m also from Iowa so I totally get where you’re coming from. When they chop corn they’re using it for feed (this type is called silage). In Iowa most of the time we harvest corn for either seed or grain. Seed corn will be detassled, grain corn will not. Both will be harvested at about the same time, using a harvester (combine) with a corn head. Hope this helps.
