You can add about 15% to that calculation for the difference between US gallons and ours, the rest is all various costs incl. duties, carbon tax and vat.

Sorry John but I allowed for the us gallon at 3.78 litres. That price is more or less right.

I didnt realise there was prices in a picture, thought you had worked off the script and it wasn't adding up for me.

My only experience of Milo was cutting it with self propels and ensiling it. As the bagger driver I used love it because it didn't yield half of the corn and I could take it easy and fall asleep between loads in a bad crop haha. Believe it or not I never actually saw a crop of it standing, only the chopped up stuff in trucks.

We'd a JD one when I worked there. No-one liked it. Underpowered and troublesome. Have you got to drive a packer tractor?. One of the best jobs I got to do. 400hp artic steer tractor with a dozer blade taking a 53ft semi load of corn is some job and the pits big enough to drive around on.

Jd wouldnt have d greatest of a name with some lads around here. D new holland we had last year has a brutal air cleaning system d radiator would block up fierce easy and d massey has been cleaned out once all year i think and d cutter bar is better on d massey is 10x better than d new holland last year but they still have bolts holding in blades they take a while to change. Never done anything for a silage crew its mostly south africans that work on them around here id love to have a spin driving a chopper aswell iv never ran 1 or a packing tractor on a pit. Iv ran 2 case quadtracs and a few different artic steer deeres on land alright their a fair bus to drive

not my department but id guess you have to go through someone like you tube or vimeo to get it up.
you can have it relatively private by setting it up so the link can only be found here and not on the tube.
not so simples.
unless the smarter ones know a way round it.

What will the stalks be used for? Are they normally baled?
