Subject: RE: 4 hrs. Flat.



dabeegmon - 6/30/2020 17:35  Interesting was to hear (haven't been able to prove it though) that alfalfa would regrow up to 4 days faster with a sickle cut machine (I think that was a sharp sickle rather than a worn out beat up pos) than with the flail cutter type. That - - - to me would pay for the difference in speed even more than anything else. My idea is maximum high quality tons per year. (notice the qualifier!)



Who uses a "flail cutter" to cut alfalfa?     A flail cutter is what is commonly called a stalk chopper "here".


I can believe alfalfa would regrow 4 days faster with a sickle machine vs a flail cutter.
