no matter how many times i see this i just wish we had such a great way to bail hay. we did it all by hand this would be the way id do it if i was still in farming
I just stumbled upon your channel. As a city boy whose mother grew up on a small farm in MS, your videos are very interesting. Thank you for frequently responding to comments in your channel (no need to reply to me). Your timely answers to the technical questions do help novices like me. Kudos to the Boss Lady for the great camera work.
That's a sick setup and some good looking hay. In lawn care, there is a saying "Fewer apps, Fewer laps" meaning the more you can get done in each pass of the lawn spreader, the more time you save.
I wish I had hay fields big enough to pull that line up. I am not sold on an accumulator though. I have baled dry hay off wet fields often this season, and wouldn't want the bales to soak up moisture.
If the soil moisture is a problem, the best solution would be to either put someone to work picking and loading them onto trailers/ wagons. Or bale a load of bales and go load them. The old fashioned way is to pay a kid a buck an hour to load wagons. If you are referring to actual puddles after a rain the accumulator won’t be your date for the dance. I grew up feeding 12-15 of Dad’s horses, and know about mold and spontaneous combustion with damp hay. A lot of beautiful barns were incinerated this way.
Nice bales - so this video is about 2 years old. How has your 1840 held up? Are you still happy with it? I see the applicator for the hay preservative. Do you see value in your market for the new RFID tags they offer to use with the Hayboss G2 system, or is the preservative sufficient?
idrive308 the rake is hydraulic, I ran the pto myself so I could run the baler behind it. Hydraulic or pto takes are the only kind I will use because I don't want anything touching the ground
Quality of the grass when in the bale determines cow price or horse price. The tank is a hay preservative when the grass cannot be completely dried down
This must be where there isn't much rain. Not very effecient. Should load on hay wagons as you bale it then put in haymow. This is just ad add trying to sell you a bill of goods
