This is the little tractor Zenz Brothers brings to pack down and push around our chopped corn in the pit silo. For those who don't know, a pit silo is just a three sided bunker to store chopped corn. As the chopper works through the corn field, the skilled truck drivers follow behind and catch the corn.
They have to keep running from the chopper to the silo in perfect rhythm so that the chopper isn't left waiting in the field. Even with the slip clutch going out in the chopper on the first day, these guys managed to get 100 acres of corn done in just 2 days.
So my final picture is our silo full and ready to feed our cows for another year.
