This video is the highlights of the Silage Extravaganza 2015 with all the Ford Tractors like the Ford County,Ford 4000,Ford 7000, Ford 9700, Ford 7810 and Ford TW-15. The Silage Extravaganza 2015 was located in Fethard village County Tipperary, Ireland, where classic tractors were picking silage with single and double chop shoots. Its great to see these tractors drawing silage. Looking forward Silage Exhibition 2016 in Lismore Castle Co.Waterford. Some of the tractors came from the Dunmore Vintage Club, Coolmoyne & Moyglass Vintage Club and Border Counties Vintage Grassmen. Looking forward to 2016 edition of Silage Extravaganza. Vintage silage shows are becoming increasingly popular in Ireland in the last few years as there are many clubs around the Ireland. Silage Extravaganza was attempting the world record of the number of single chop harvesters and double chop harvesters working in one field at a time.

Great video thank you for posting. Brings back memories. In the 70s Iwhen I was in my teens I drew in with a mf 165. We had a mf 188 pulling a new Holland dubble chop. They were the days.

Very nice Fords
I can remember when I was 15 - 16 years old (I'm 73 now) and doing summer work on the University of Florida research agricultural farm. The corn (MAIZE) section was trying out various varieties of plants, there was one from Brazil (I believe) that was like 14 - 16 feet tall and would 1 or 2 ears per stalk, if it actually had any. They were trying to use it to get a hybrid growing taller and produce 1 ear per foot. It didn't give much maize but I bet it would have been an incredible silage crop.
Great video, really enjoyed that.

Personally the star of the video was the Ford 8700 2wd @ 3:42 great memories of these tractors, there was a farmer i know bought one in the early 1980’s,,, i remember the day it arrived it was delivered by Leahy & O’ Mahony they were Ford tractor dealers just outside Midleton Co Cork. The 8700 was launched in 1977 and it was away ahead of other tractors of that time,,.. ford bought out the Q Cab that same year... it was standard obviously on the 7700, 8700, & 9700 but if you wanted the Q Cab on the rest of the Ford range back in 1977 it was £500 hundred pound extra which was a lot of money back then. There was the standard cab or the fitzmier cab take your pick back then..... honestly i think the guy who designed the fitzmier cab back then he most of been pissed out of his brain what an ugly cab even worse having to drive around all day looking at the fuck’n thing.
