We have a JD model 35 chopper. We have been working this past weekend filling bags with corn silage. We run a two row wide head on the chopper, pulled with our 4020.
Relatively new to chopping corn (last year was our first year)
Now for the questions.....
The chopper is doing a fine job, cutting real nice....but, kinda slow going in good corn, 1st gear is as fast as the chopper head/feed rolls can take the corn. Tractor has plenty of power, but try second, or some spots of the field 1st is to much......
What is a model of a chopper that has more capacity? The chopper is a good machine, but the corn head is WORE OUT, and the chopper needs some attention as well....been thinking of totally going through them both....but wondered if I should find a bigger model....then go through it...
