Those bumps in the road were what kept my attention.

I found it funny how she could not only operate a many ton machine and trailer with ease over rough terrain but she was always mindful of her phone sliding around on the console. She needs one of those silicone mats.

From the first scene, I am guessing she is the farmer's daughter.

On a purely technical observation, I like the noise level in that German DEUTZ machine. Big and smooth with few rattles. Looks like the cockpit could use a detailing but, otherwise pretty cush. Clearly this operation has several tugs and she jumps between them like she has done this all her life.

She does know how to operate that tractor pulling that big trailer. I'm amazed at how she stays in position right next to the rows.

She sure keeps focused on her phone, and makes sure it stays handy. She's got her nails polished up, and make sure her hair is in place as she goes thru the day!

I'm guessing she started operating equipment and a very young girl. Her confidence level pulling out and getting in position for the combine show it.

That is an interesting header on that combine to! Not what you see in the US.

Not a combine, silage chopper, or silage flail, it does not separate any seed, just chops it all up and blows it in the trailer.

NIW since you use the word “silage” what does that mean to you (and the area you live in)?

In Texas we don’t use that word often we use hay. Which is just dried grass really.

What makes it silage and what do you do to it after cutting it and piling it up?

I’ve always wondered what it meant.

Silage is put up damp. It is packed to remove as much air as possible. In a silo it's packed under it's own weight. In a pile or bunker silo it's packed by a tractor. The point is to ferment it in the absence of oxygen.

Yep bucktail nailed it.
