i will have to look. I am not sure and did not know there was a difference.

I have a surface drive unloader in a smaller 16x55 stave silo. i have not used that one in 25 years though. i hated it with a passion. The guy we bought our farm from used all three silos. We used one the first two years and had some many problems with the surface drive. ended up forking most of the silo out. the surface drive wheel would bury itself in the silage.

I currently feed grain and free choice hay. this worked good at $3.50 corn and 5-10 steers... seems like feeding 30-35 heifers/steers will require a bit more feed management and watching the budget. Corn silage i think will be more cost efficient. i guess that will be another post. haha
