Around 145 gallons but I lost part of cane to a blow down in a small section that wind got.

I will still strip before cutting like I did this year. I looked at purchasing a corn binder for cutting. Is this a good way to cut that amount or is there a better way?  Or am I better of still cutting by hand?  I also though about cutting with sickle mower and making a catch for cane. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
