Guess I should have divulged my whole crazy scheme. We work a 22 acre vegetable farm and make a lot of compost. There are few farms left in our area so manure is scarce, and even if we could get it the phosphourus levels in our soil were crazy high when we got here, so adding 'hot' manures (cow, chicken) not a good idea anyway. We get heavily bedded horse manure but it takes forever to compost with no nitrogen source. I have a Brady flail I bought to flail cover crops, so I thought hey lets just chop into a wagon and feed the compost piles. Then the plugging problem....so I solved it by cutting the back off the wagon and running the apron in reverse and just dumping the chop on teh ground. Then I can go super fast chopping, and dumping takes no time. We have several 200 foot X 10 foot high by 10 foot wide piles. We make windrows by feeding into a manure spreader so we need a lot of green chop to make this work. Made some progress today by just skipping the conveyor. Thanks to everyone who posted ideas. Best, Paul
