Silaging with John Deere 6850. Wet and Steep makes a problem.

Wonderful farm with terrific views, and kindly folk running it. Views mean hills, though, and after all our rain the ground is soft, so some care is required and four-wheel drive absolutely necessary. This clip is the first field: another is to come with even better views, but fewer problems. New Holland and Claas tractors in support.

You must be a genius to know just how steep and how wet it is! C'mon man, do them a favour and allow they know a bit more about conditions in that field than you do.

It looked like he couldn't go any further. Loaded, nearly full, wet field, steep hill - not surprising?

Nice one, slopes are such nightmares especially when wet...

It is. I didn't film all of it, there were some moments when the tractors really were struggling to heave the full trailers over the hill. . . . Alan

No more than 10 miles! But this weather isn't going to last (fact it rained off the whole-crop yesterday) so I make the most of it, and save it for the winter . . . Alan
