Fairbury, NE (Southeast)
They didn't call em blue tombstones for nothing. They helped break guys in the 70's.

Harvestores are pretty cool moneypits. They work great for a time, then dollar you to death.

Per head cost might be 5 to 10 times more than a silage bag or pile with a tractor and wagon.

Find five guys that have them and ask their opinion. Then proceed.

As to corn silage, it's a lot easier to chop 100 bushel or less corn than it is 200 bushel corn.

For the 80k he mentioned you could buy a real solid loader tractor, feed wagon and put up a shed to protect them from the snow.
