The Intense Game of Brokering Hay 

I appreciate that! thank you!

Thank you!

We will have one by this spring. Thank you for the support!

Thank you Paula!

Thank you very much sir!

Thank you Scott!

Thank you very much Armando!

Thanks, will do!

That’s what I thought. We try to treat the driver’s time with respect

@@FarmingInsider Subscribed 2 weeks ago so not yet caught up on past videos. You have been talking about a ramp. That would greatly decrease loading time, no fiddling around and pushing, not sure it would decrease unloading time much, you're doing good there. The problem is locating it where it isn't blocking other daily uses of the yard but close enough to where you're storing the hay the extra travel time negates the lesser time of loading/unloading. Also keeping in mind trucks have to have room to back up to it, tuck it around a corner somewhere or a difficult place to back into reasonably quickly and you've lost any advantage.

Thank you!

He sure is!

We are thinking about it, but we need to just get off our butts and build a loading dock

thank you sir!

I’d move up there full time if I could! 😅I have a few acres here in Oklahoma & customers I’ve had for 5-6 years! But every October through March I’m free to work if you need anyone!

That's the truth. Things take time

Hahah, I hope so too!!

Haha, he did for a bit for sure

Another great one ! 30 minutes is pretty quick ! Pretty neat you guys are doing custom bundling. What you figure for cost per bale around your area?

I never really put a price on the bundling portion. Let me think about that and get back to you

Haha I hope you enjoyed it!

I agree with you. That would speed me up in there

@@FarmingInsider you can get different lengths at harbor freight. Would be better to not deal with the hook and ratchet mechanism. Love the videos. We are an 11th generation hay farm out in Central MA. Much smaller operation. 7-8k squares a year.

Thank you for the well wishes

Thank you. Yes we are

@@FarmingInsider thought that I recognized the farm, I'm next door.... Litchfield, small world lol We eat at Lagerhead at times.

True… I’m hoping these aluminum panels last longer

We use 2-4D on the straight grasses and 2-4DB on the mixes

We shoot for about a 42-46lb bale. We don't get too excited with flake count while rebaling

Yes I will review it in a video when we get going this spring

The prices are truly all over the place

Customers can buy from whoever they want

we sure can

We can shut down everything from inside except the baler

The who?

I don't think we could keep up with orders rebaling without the 2 string work in the field

We use 170 on the small bales and 450 on the bundles. usually cordex i think

@@FarmingInsider did 170 work with the arcusins aswell we had trouble with twine braking with 210 on the arcusin

@@aidenkoster6427 I'm sorry, we do use 210. I shouldn't be replying this late at night haha. We had trouble with 170's breaking on the Arcusins but it seemed to be a decent fix when we hopped up to 210. What pressure do you run?

@@FarmingInsider I think we were running 120 psi on the bunder we tried 440 in the baler and it actually worked really well but I think we are going to try 300 or so this year. We haven't bought a bundler yet but we have the option on a very slightly used c14 and a new d14 what machine did you prefer?

I really appreciate the videos and that you are answering my question Thanks

Oh man! You’re killing me lol
