I added a new toy to the collection this year. The D8 just isn't a very efficient finishing cat. This seems to fit the bill. And the budget...

Interesting picture, hard to figure out.

Your combine has the reel on it, yet in the picture the clover looks like it's in swaths.

Do you have anyone familiar with harvesting red clover to help?

Ya I was straight cutting. High as possible as the straw was very green and lots of second growth. The swath look is because straw was tough and my chopper is far from being a Redekop MAV.

A friend of mine has grown it quite a bit and offered a few tips for combine settings when I started.

Straight cutting any forages for seed is basically impossible as the ripping stage is so varied.

Was there much seed left below your cut line?

Red clover is tough to dry out at the best of times even in swaths. Cylinder must have been tighten right up, and I'm thinking a decent wind to blow out all the green matter without losing seed.

Did you have to throw the seed on a drying floor?

Good for you!
