A forage harvester is an industrial cutting machine part of the harvesters machines family, used to chop down plant material to be turned into silage, which is then fed to livestock .
The function of a forage harvester
This huge piece of equipment is usually attached to a tractor and pulled along to cut the plants, which in turn is then sprayed into a wagon close by - this particular machine is known as a trailed forage harvester. Attached to a rotating drum, the forage harvester knives are propelled at high speed causing the plants to be chopped and then blown up the attached chute, into the wagon being pulled alongside. There are also self-propelled forage harvesters available which look like tractors with a chopping implement on the front and a collection device, usually on the back. They work in pretty much the same way as trailed forage harvesters do.
Maintenance and Repair of Forage Harvesters
As with all farm equipment, it is important to take good care of the machine by regularly checking that everything is in full working order. Keeping a supply of forage harvester parts, or searching for a used forage harvester that could be salvaged for spare parts, is an excellent way to keep costs down - particularly important for small-scale farms. An important thing to remember when performing maintenance of the machine is making sure the chute and knives do not become clogged with plant material. It is also imperative to ensure that the whole machine is oiled regularly and checked over for general wear and tear, ideally twice a year; once before the harvest and once afterwards.
Used Forage Harvesters for Sale are often in great condition
