Video: Grinding Corn On Our Small Dairy Farm/International 1256 with Artsway Grinder Mixer

The plan was simple. Use the 830 Case to grind corn for our dairy heifers. Unfortunately, plans don't always work out that way. With the Case having a flat tire, the International 1256 was needed to grind corn. It wasn't plugged in, so it took a bit of work to warm it up. After we got the 1256 running, we were finally ready to start grinding. We headed up to the corn crib and started helping the cobs through to the auger. After getting the corn ground up, we added some pellets. The load was all mixed, so we unloaded it into one of our two, grain bins. The feed should work well for our youngstock.
