I'd say it's in Australia. Roger's got some $$$$$'s tied up in the machinery. Wagon's were the oldest things in the video.
Bet they can cover a lot of ground in a hurry.

Why do they keep stopping the chopper every time that the wagon is full?

This is taken in Ireland. The tractors are all KE registered which is County Kerry. Looks like second cut.

Ok, I fail geography. Didn't notice on the other videos that it said County Athy, Kildare. Never knew there were parts of Ireland that flat.

Because it would get messy in a hurry!

Nice equipment! Roger Perry is not shy about putting his name on all his toys!

Around here they keep flying. Empty wagon is right beside the one topping off. When 1st wagon is full spout tips up and starts loading empty wagon. Full wagon slows down, empty one moves in, they keep flying. They beat the rain.

Sounds like quite an operation! I have never been into full scale chopping. Last chopper we had was a new Ford from the 1960's. It did 2 rows wide and it would fill a small wagon before the end of the field. It took 4 guys to fill a 45 ton silo with that geriatric equipment! It beat using the binder and ensilage cutter though!
