What's going on? Well, I'm currently trying to work out the smartest way to transport 30ish manure hoses....
I'm preparing for slurrying a not so accessible field. Currently planning on stopping the truck down beside the road, then making a hose out half the way, then a pump, then more hose to the slurry container about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way. Then more hose up to the field where the spreading tractor can connect to refill.....

I wish for hose drums, 30ish meters would be good, longer too if possible 😂

Lone Oak revisited: Continued my Lone Oak game after a month or so of allowing it to remain fallow; did some pretty major switch-ups to open the windows and let in some air so to speak. There was just too much Claas around, so traded in my Axion 660 and Arion 870 for the two medium modded Fendts (I think a 724 and a 800?). Absolutely love these new tractors. Switched the Fendt 515c out for the Case Maxxum tractor - not really sure if I really think this was worth the extra money. And sold the Claas Jaguar - it is like 56 slots and was super expensive and I don't even like doing silage that much anyway. Probably took a loss but considering my recent child custody agreement, I have dealt with greater.
Sold all my manure and slurry, sold a few loads of pigs, and got some fall planting in. I was hoping my sugar beets would be ready to harvest by winter and despite me planting them right in the planting window, they were not. Not really sure what to do now, I think it was because it didn't rain all summer. Instead of replanting in early winter I just let them stay there, maybe they will survive the winter, who knows.
I sold a bunch of things I wasn't using to tidy up the farm. I think slot count limits are a good thing - when there's too much stuff around the farm it just gets so cluttery and when half of it was used when you were 2 sizes smaller, it just needs sold. Move on with your lives people: it's old, you're old. It doesn't fit, it never will.
Will most likely just feed and put straw in the pig pen and fast forward the whole winter. (If I set the economy on easy, and just fast forward the whole season, will all the pigs just be really hangry but still alive at the end of the winter?) Asking for a friend.

Managing my uncle's farm over in Greenwich Valley.

Fantastic UniMog that he customized back when he got around easier, but it's tuned to 210 horse, so let 'em loose :lol: ! I am the manager of his small sheep farm, about 20 head and three tractors, a MF 3090, a NH TM155, and a JD 8320, plus the UniMog. Grass prime time has me on my toes!

Hey,

The one mod is on the modhub it is the Fliegl SDS350J The other is custom moddings trailer on
https://www.yesmods.com/fs19-mods/trail ... 10-mfg-cm/

I rock this config because the front trailer disconnects at the front and the fliegl has ramps that make moving equipment possible without unhitching the trailers

And bored again, time to break more ground to have a few more meadows to hay in summer. Besides who needs all these trees anyway.

I needed a break from Campaign of France so I decided to try out Marwell. Really loving this map!

Trying to use different equipment than I normally would and that field 18 is a beast! I will be planting some soybeans here in the next couple of days when the soil cooperates. It is already mid-spring and I only have one field planted with some Oats to keep the straw for some cattle down the road and cutting and wrapping my grass field for some silage as well.
It is fun driving Fendt tractors around and the layout of the farm is great! This might be my new home until a couple of maps I am waiting on to come out.

Bales from my 2 grass fields each bale is 20k I used the variable bale mod.

Btw how unrealistic are these trailers and the config compared to real life?
