Awesome! Arthur's first FS17 tutorial. Another great video. The FS15 silage tutorial is what prompted me to subscribe to the channel a couple of years ago. Thank-you Arthur for years of info and LOTS of fun. God Bless you and your family.P.S. it was a blast watching Mater run around the farm the other as well as your other kids.

Just started playing farming simulator 17 recently, and it's the first sim I've played seriously. I've been having a lot of fun playing, and have appreciated your archive of videos.

Thank you I'm sick now but watching YouTube vids made me feel a fair bit better thanks

When you turn the wheels sideways on that last belt, you can then hire a worker, and he will move the unit side to side to spread out the pile you are creating. You can set the size of the arc with the degree setting. Not real useful for silage, but if you are just making a pile on the ground or in a storage shed, you can make a nicer pile.

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I got to the fermenting stage of the grass and didn't know what to do with it, so now I know.

seeing as Arthur so kindly guided me through FS15 I though I would treat myself to FS17. And now we have conveyor belts on xbox for 17. Great times.

The best way to set up the belt thingys is to place the one that picks it up from the ground first and then the one that can reach very high up so you set out those 2 first and THEN you get out the middle peice because its so flexible since you can move it in all kinds of ways

Glad to see they finally got some Massey Ferguson into the game. That's what we had on our farm when I was a kid.

This helped a lot. The fs 15 tutorial is why I subbed to you. I kinda was ticked when I found out the silage got cut back.

I figured out how to get a nice level pile in the silage pit after messing around with a leveler and following some of your advice! I will have to upload a video to explain it

I love your vids, It takes roughly 9 weeks for a wrapped bale to turn to silage

A trick to get layers is when unloading to run the tractor over at cruise control at a certain speed, first on the right side of the silo, then on the left side, and so on and so forth. For the biggest loading wagon I found what works is setting it to about 11-12 kph, hit Ctrl+I about 2-3 meters into the silo (leaving a bit of space cause compacting will spread it out) will mean the wagon runs out of grass about 2-3 meters before the end of the silo. Without it, when you start getting to about 1M liters per silo, it'll really be a pain in the ass to be able to drive over that with the wagon.

If you run something like a John Deere 9630 with triple wheels, it'll finish up to 100% in just one extra run over each silo. I suppose getting the heaviest weights on each side of the tractor plus maybe wheel weights might be the cheapest way to do it though.

One question I have is how do you use the silage addatives? It says on the shop page (under pallets) that it's supposed to make it more valuable, but I haven't found out how to use it yet.
