How to Choose the Correct Mower Conditioner
July 2017

Each type of mower conditioner has its own merits – it all depends on the type of hay crop you’re harvesting. Vermeer Makin’ Hay Minute host Bryan Setzer talks with forage expert Tim Schnakenberg, Agronomist from University of Missouri Extension, to discuss what to consider when choosing the right mower conditioner for your crop.
