Dad and I are considering adding a TMR wagon of some type to our operation. We raise beef cattle and feed out our calves, about 50 brood cows, and all our own feeders.
We in the past have fed the brood cows round bales of hay. Last year due to the drought, we chopped our corn and put it in silage bags. We fed the silage last winter with what hay we had made.
We also thru the summer green chop hay/grass to feed to the cows.
This spring we laid down a bag of haylage, and plan to lay down 2 - 4 bags of corn silage this fall (planted corn just for silage)
Is a TMR feedwagon (vertical?)that grinds the bales also our best option, or is a Horizontal TMR better? I think I can grind round bales with our chopper with the hay head.....I am going to attempt this after while to see how it goes.
Type, brand, and any other reccomendations are greatly appreciated! Thanks, Mike
