Switch To Field Queen Switch To Field Queen
Melvin Jamison of Ottawa, RFD 4, switches to a Field Queen Dump Box with a self propelled cutter moving six mph cutting three corn rows per pass. The box fills in six to seven minutes, dumps into a truck, and holds six to seven tons of silage. The 1973 model costs 54000 with 210 hp. Three trucks with automatic tail gates feed a silo via a platform feeder. The setup replaces two cutters and six chuck wagons, cutting staff from six to three. Leonard Schuck notes the Field Queen speeds in-field and on road, handling up to 500 acres yearly across 13 miles to the Jamison farm. In one day Schuck cut 32 loads but faced trouble.
