A perfect window opened up between the rain showers to get some dry hay baled. Even better is that the 2nd crop of hay was nice and tender and worthy of square baling. Justin started raking the hay with the John Deere 820 and New Holland Bar Rake while Alan went to v rake the other field with the 830 Case tractor. Then Alan got the New Idea 551 Square Baler and hay baskets ready. There was more hay up there than Alan figured and it didn't take long to fill up both hay baskets. All in all, there were 541 small square bales.

Yes I know what you mean about the smell of Hay days. Something you never forget. Your son looks so big out there raking like that. He is a very hard working young man. Hay does look good.

@br927 2 месяца назад

We use to crank up the front of the rake , so it was higher, and leave the back where it is, and just hit the windrow with the back just to flip the bottom up on top, but not all the way over to dry out the bottom of raked hay! It's nice to have family help out! I have friends that have a farm, the Ladies do the milking and the guys stay out and do crop work! When I was a kid, we had a neighbor that bought a new Fordson and a new baler, he was baling on a hill, it was alright when he went up, but when he came down, the load pushed him down the hill, across the R.R.tracks, and into the woods, then his new equipment was junk!

Always enjoy your posted videos when you get time and guess the wife helps you out when she has time as well. Would be nice to see you have heavier crops but you have to take what you get, along with the weather and always have to work around that.

Do you feed dry hay to the heifers only and save the high moisture hay for the cows? I love the smell of hay however it brings back the memory of stacking it in our hay mow which I dreaded. But I loved watching our square baler at work even though my dad wasn't very good at running it. We had an John Deere # 5 sickle bar mower that was nice to listen to even if it wasn't very efficient. There was a dairy farm down the road from us that had a New Holland bale accumulator and one of those New Idea Uni's like you have. This was back in the early 70's and I thought that the farmer had it made. Your cows are so clean. Someone does an amazing job maintaining them. We didn't even have a hay elevator mostly because of how are barn was set up. It still has the old loose hay trolley hanging at the top. This is by far my favorite video that you have done. Really good camera work too.

@trinitydairy 2 месяца назад

Yes, the wrapped hay is usually made for the milking cows.

@michaelbaker826 2 месяца назад

That old seed drill (planter) in the background of your hayfield is just like the planter we used on our farm back in the 50s.

@trinitydairy 2 месяца назад

I don't remember it being used, but my grandpa talked about it, it has a platform on the back that someone would stand on with a hand crank seeder, to seed the alfalfa .

@jamesbristow5740 2 месяца назад

My grandpa used to bale hay with the neighbor, I think Grant owned the haybine and rake and a Case like yours to bale with a small moline to haul wagons and G-pa had a JD baler with a kicker and a 4 star NH tedder with a Ford 3000 and they each had a couple kicker wagons. I didn't know what retirement was and I thought raising up a dozen heifers and baling 35 acres was the job for me when I was little. Thanks for bringing us along.

@dougpeterson5257 2 месяца назад

I remember raking hay for my grandfather and uncle. Some grass hay but mostly green pea hay that was baled after the harvest of the peas. Really dusty work and hard on rake teeth because you are scraping the ground with them.

@MorganOtt-ne1qj 2 месяца назад

@@trinitydairy Yeah, but they keep working! I especially liked the 258 model Rolabar's, they were the pinnacle of the NH rakes, IMHO.

@teluvinas Месяц назад

A couple technical questions: how do all eight fans on the V rake keep contact the the grounds where the field is uneven? And how does the square baler keep baling/twining at the turns, I’d think if there was no input of hay you would want it to pause for the turn, otherwise there would be a mess of twine & no bale?

@trinitydairy Месяц назад

There is pivot points in the frame, that allow it to flex enough some they can follow the ground. The baler only pushes the bales when there is hay coming in, and it only pulls the twine when the bales are moving through the chamber.

@22gonefishing 2 месяца назад

@teluvinas Месяц назад

So the hay rakes: the bar rake is ground-drive, and the V (fan) rake takes power from the PTO?

@trinitydairy Месяц назад

No, they are both groud driven, the bar rake is driven by the wheels, and the v rake wheels turn when pulled along the ground. Some bar rakes are pto driven, but not this one.

@stephenkeller6894 2 месяца назад

I’ve never seen or heard of a New Idea small square baler. Is it made by someone else and rebranded? Seems like it’s an honest machine for you.

@trinitydairy 2 месяца назад

From what I understand, New Idea bought International's baler plant, and made balers for themselves and International. It has been a very good machine, but getting tricky to get parts for.
