[QUOTE="rdbigfarmboy, post: 491001, member: 6318"] The chopper is not an efficient or fast cutter. Last summer I cut and pit dumped most of the grass was too dry and too hard to pack small amounts. It was too short to cut for hay and drying up in the heat. Low quality but they eat it. I would not try to wilt stemmy stuff like fescue, orchardgrasss clover mixes. Just chop in the afternoon. Alfalfa does benefit from wilting a bit. Buy a newer better wider chopper and /or chop corn at the same time to fill and pack. [/QUOTE]
