SE MN | We have always used a nh 489 and it has served us well. We have the following concerns with a disc machine maybe somebody can tell me how accurate they are:
the extra speed is only useful if you have smooth, big fields and a tractor that lets you easily change speeds for corners/turning around
The disc leaves a more ragged cut which means less and slower regrowth (we keep our sickle and guards in good shape)
If you do have rock or foreign object problems the disc is much more money to fix. I have heard that just one disc module would be more than a new sickle and all new guards.
It looks like most are happy with the disc, so maybe we are missing the boat.
Have a day. | |
