Feitsma Services making corn silage in Saskatchewan, Canada. To contact Feitsma Services: Hague, SK (1-306-381-7689) Music: Lindsey Stirling - Elements
Great video and away beyond what a normal CZcamsr can do with a camera and software, all so some great editing as well, loved the music, you have great talent.
+Peter Hanson when they put a white kinda blanket over it is drying and fermenting if i am correct so it if it is chaffed when dry it is sooner done . that is my guess but it is something like that so
+Peter Hanson In canada the growing season is shorter so the stalk is dry before the by the time the ears ready. If you chopped it green up there there wouldnt be much on the ear of corn
+Peter Hanson in Alberta and Saskatchewan it can be tricky getting silage in at good moisture due to our normally early frosts. We started ours this year at 69%, which is a bit too wet but finished 25 days later at 50%. Some years it freezes before it is even ready so you have no choice but to cut it too dry.
Great video and music selection! One quick question, what is the benefit of putting the silage in a mound instead of in a bunker with walls, similar to the others shown in the back ground? Thanks for the great content.
+lepaul26 Claas only makes a 12 row head for the 900 series choppers, and these are 800 series by the look of things, but even if you could get a claas 12 row head for an 800 series you'll see more productivity out of an 8 row, since the choppers they have would be pretty much maxed out for capacity and horsepower with a 12 row head
There is some very different opinions on that. The more green the more milk but high risk of cows cant handle it and gets sick, less green, less milk, less disease
Gustav they probably didn't get too it fast enough. when it's too green or kernel milky it will cook up good a little up on protein but lower on energy. you want to harvest it when the kernel is doughy or a little harder with processers.when it's brown and the plant is dried down it is tougher for fermentation to occur which doesnt help with converting sugars to usable energy

+PilgrimTitan theirs a lot if science in silage and it all depends on the moister for good fermantation so u don't want to chop it to wet or dry but you want to start chopping when its at 60% moister

lots of rich dutch famers moved to Canada due to cheap farm land. some of these guys have so much money they just came over here to play. witch is kinda b.s because they made the price of Ontario land sky rocket.
Awesome video guys, always love your farming videos!
Excellent video.😊 really enjoyed it here from Ireland looking forward to seeing more😊
Loved it so happy you're making videos more often

Beautiful Video
Greetings from Poland
that corn seems more ripe that other videos ive seen, most of them chop it when its green. would it not be too dry for it to ferment?
big work,big vehicles nice job 👏
beautiful vid realy amazing
nice job and nice music
just awsome!
Very nice video! Is this made with a drone?
Nice what type of drone you use
Noise music love it!
How many acres was that field , it's huge
Very nice video :)
What's the benefit of bringing in the corn so dry, if it's for silage ? Wouldn't you want a little green corn ?
+Peter Hanson when they put a white kinda blanket over it is drying and fermenting if i am correct so it if it is chaffed when dry it is sooner done . that is my guess but it is something like that so
+Richard Kip in BC on West coast we don't let the corn get this dry, as the cows can digest it better when it is a bit green
+Peter Hanson In canada the growing season is shorter so the stalk is dry before the by the time the ears ready. If you chopped it green up there there wouldnt be much on the ear of corn

+Kevin Campschroer makes sense 🐄🚜
saska diary can i email you personally i want to ask you some questions?plz reply fast
What is the purpose of letting the corn almost ripen before cutting it?.
From Portugal...
What is the production per hectare, and what is the FAO planting area?
perfect 👌
very Nice video
why so late with the corn harvest is it for sliage?
what a hand whit our krone bigx 500? XD
Go big or go home right?
amazing ....
Vood98 Holland you know

+HNT4JCT you woul need a very big bunker to put in that much corn + your feed speed would be to high.
Nice !
Where are you farming outta
i like this
We like to do the corn silage when it is green with 30%+ moister
We're gonna need a bigger pile.
nice bro :)

great
Is that a farm or customers
Feitsma does both farming and custom work
Weird that the choppers don't have larger headers ? Like 10 or 12 rows
but they use like 3 or 4 chppers, so they don't really care
+Bart Stoffers
They don't care about time/costs ? Hmmm, must be another reason.

+Lucas Bauman to me they look like 900's with that bigger back
+Lucas Bauman and slanted engine deck
is this in Australia???
+Kyle Feagins Canada...
OK thanks
There is a guy that stole your content. The name is Dafek. The video is called SILAGE IN USA. Video almost have 900,000 views
Why do some farmers harvest the corn when it's brown and others harvest corn when it's green.
There is some very different opinions on that. The more green the more milk but high risk of cows cant handle it and gets sick, less green, less milk, less disease
Brown corn is when the plant has died out and will have a lower moisture content where as green corn is younger and has a much higher moisture content
Gustav they probably didn't get too it fast enough. when it's too green or kernel milky it will cook up good a little up on protein but lower on energy. you want to harvest it when the kernel is doughy or a little harder with processers.when it's brown and the plant is dried down it is tougher for fermentation to occur which doesnt help with converting sugars to usable energy
Nice 5.5
They obviously know more than me, but isn't that corn too dry?

I am not a farmer so I dunno I was just thinking what could be right
Thanks guys

Feitsma, sounds really Dutch...
+Bart Stoffers cause they are
Some Dutch people that moved maybe
