What is the box/tank on the side of the silo?

[fuelfarmer]

It is a tank that was used to gravity feed a liquid supplement into a mix wagon.

[fendtguy930]

yeah thats 4 tanks though we have the biggest dragline in canada 8 inch soft hose to 5 inch hard hose and spreds 40 feet wide it pumps 1300 g a min

[fendtguy930]

dragline is way better we can pump one million gallons in 12 to 13 hrs

[BMAN4500]

we do that in.....8 hours .....with 4 5000 gallon tanks

[nchayfarmer]

@BMAN4500 yeah and he has mabey 100 grand in it counting the tractor you on the other hand have 4 5000 gallon tanks I doubt your running tandems so say 4 tractors so you have 4 tractors 4 tanks 4 operators just dumping thats probally around half a 600 grand

[BMAN4500]

@nchayfarmer well as a matter of fact they are tandems....just so you know...... and where are you getting these numbers from?....and btw if you like working up to your shoulders in shit have fun with that....because i could wear a suit to work and not get dirty and covered in shit cause i dont have to hook hoses together like you do with your drag line........and drag lines are alot more money wise than tankers.....ive compared before....at least in canada that is

[nchayfarmer]

well around here we pump hog waste not cow waste and our lagoons are millions and millions of gallons we are capable of injecting a million gallons an hour with 10,000 foot hard pipes on reels at the edge of the field with underground plastic pipe coming from the lagoons from 2 or 3 miles away we dont fuckin kid around here I know a man that had someone use tankers on his farm he made them rebuild the gravel path goin into his farm after one tanker and tractor rolled in the woods and ditch

[VolkgartenBySquirrel]

No hydroponics farm could possibly accommodate that amount of cow poo. How long did that take, and from how many cows?

[vacornfarmer]

The pit is about 1,000,000 gal., will last about a year with 120 cows, depending on amount of rain.

[hondarancher12]

why not get a tank??

[vacornfarmer]

This is much quicker than a tanker and doesn't compact the soil like tankers do.

[BMAN4500]

tankers only pack the field if you dont do it right

one of the many reasons that the shenedoah Valley smells like it does!!
