Baling Straw 7290R and Case IH LB333 big baler

[@mikepishl4216]

Great video again Andy, really is nice to see BTO’s like yourselves not putting on a show for the neighbours and still running some of the older equipment👍🏼

[@padairyfarming6489]

Great to see you have your son involved in the “book keeping” on the farm. It may not be the most fun job on a farm but it sure is important! Another great video!

[@OnlyMe1909]

Love how you involve young Andrew. Looks like he’s doing a great job!

[@kennykluge9912]

You got yourself a heck of a young man, good to see the generations rolling on! If only there more millennials passionate about taking on farming. Great video non the less! Use a LB 333 myself 👍

[@bobbysears6626]

You doing a fine job training your children to work on the farm and your little boy is going to be able to run the farm by the time he’s a teenager! Thanks for sharing

[@williamj.barnhartjr.3108]

I just love seeing the little man involved in the family farm and to see he likes to do more than just plant corn and drive tractor's, at that age tractors are the fun stuff. Another great video thanks for sharing God Bless

[@jonathangreenwood6379]

Nice video Andy I like your channel well organized farm and a good workshop always give plenty details I am a farmer from UK

[@cliveatwood4752]

Great way of bringing the bales in. No strapping needed saves a load of time. Like seeing a low stubble. Not always possible on stoney land. Another nice video.

[@mauricecahill3385]

Looks like good quality wheaten straw Andy.... great to see junior doing his thing in the office!!!! Harvest is full throttle over here in South Coast Ireland right now but the forecast is crap as usual don't ya know!! Keep safe n busy y'all!!

[@rodneyerdmann1545]

That's what I call great teamwork! When my Dad was farming he had all his straw chopped and blown into the barn, talk about dust!!! But it made for nice bedding!

[@codyflenthrope2388]

That's so cool to see your son helping out at that age so neat

[@garlandhenry6792]

There is no doubt about it Andy, when your doing a job you can put the manpower and equipment in the field

[@gordonbrand7021]

Thanks Bill. I knew they were too heavy for a person to handle, but I was way off on my estimate. Thanks for the reply

[@jetegtmeier71]

the younger generations get so computer smart so quick :) It's great to see your son helping out with the business :)

[@williamtorkelson3072]

Andrew seems like a pretty nice scale operator. Wish I would see more like that.

[@jesseburns9734]

Wow your crops are a good 2 weeks ahead of us in Michigan. Nice video.

[@arnimk.2128]

Some really nice footage you got there! Thanks for sharing!

[@raygreenwood6144]

Love watching your videos. Just makes me wonder, how my Dad and I, bailed hay and straw with a John Deere A, with a new holland bailer, and wagon behind it with me stacking the bales . Then we would go home, and mow the hay. Guess who was up in the top of that hottttt barn?

[@bigjim5723]

i always have loved ur videos, and i'm glad u take the time to make them for someone like me-but the heck with the music, i wanna hear the equipment working. thanks for the video.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

I'm with ya in the music it's hard to pick out what fits best. The drone doesn't capture sound.

[@andrewwoodhead8305]

Nice video 👍nice bright straw👍family hourigan are in DA HOUSE!! 👍💪😁👌

[@davidschmidt1780]

Love watching you and your crew working like a well oiled machine great video ! ! !

[@JohnWilliams-gd5jh]

I always appreciate a good farm truck, those are some nice ass trucks!

[@rjacobs1200]

Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a good week

[@egan88817]

Thank you for today's video. You have some good drone footage. I am thinking much easier to record when your not driving equipment and doing 4 different things at once. 😜 I liked the high overhead shot down to tractor hight. Jr has really been helping this summer, I am always amazed with kids how much they change each year as they mature. 😉

[@stanleyjones4180]

good job junior great video andy thanks

[@keenankelley187]

Thata boy junior keep up the good work. And you to Jared. Awesome vid

[@chadtheartist5081]

It's neat to see Claas equipment. Can't say I've seen that rake before.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

It's a model linear 470t, we've had it for years.

[@anthonybanda8192]

dad and I just bought a johndeere s660 combine at a dealership inventory reduction auction sale traded our 9670 sts and heads. we had the opportunity to use it the day after purchase on winter wheat it can handle high yields with a 40 feet head. our efficiency has gone up by runing 2 large combines our s660 and our 9870sts. bales over 250 straw bales and sold them right away.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

That's great

[@kevingordon7426]

Glad you have good help in the scale house.

[@timheasley612]

Nice video Andy that drone really gets up there 😳😳

[@curtweatherbee2523]

Junior looks like he knows what he’s doing👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@Ham68229]

Alternate those windrows when baling, saves you big headaches on the PTO driveline. Also, it looks like you could double or triple up on those windrows, it's straw afterall, not near as dense as "quality" hay. Great video as always, cheers :)

[@Johndeererobert]

I was hoping to see the John Deere big square baler going.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Next video

[@jerome8469]

Another Great vid in the can !! Thanks for Sharing Peace Guys !!

[@craiga657]

A good little boss there Andy a few more years and he'll let you start having days off lol.

[@jbmbanter]

There's a KZbin channel called onelonleyfarmer and the owner is Wes Pandy. Don't know if you've ever watched him but he bales hay for mushroom barns in NJ and this summer he went to NC to custom bale wheat straw for a farmer. He's got two Krone Big Pack balers and he swears by them. Have you ever thought about Krone?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

We don't do that much baling

[@phillipsaunders8062]

Looks like a nice wheat crop. I can't say that i've seen a wheat feild down here, what got planted, didn't make it due to being to wet.

[@3069mark]

Hi Andy. Nice video. I am curious what the pros and cons of a big square baler vs. a big round baler are, and why you use the big square balers? Also, is that rake a tedder with a side shield on it? I am new to haying and just don't know the answers to this stuff. We never hayed on our farm, but like I told you in another video that I did help the neighbor put up small square bales one summer .... in 1974.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

3069mark its a rotary rake.The large square bales stack easier and work better for us to slice out to use for bedding.Round balers are cheaper and I think when doing balance the rounds are actually better.

[@berndreiner7159]

Great Video 👍👌👌 What about a Krone? Would fit nice to the JD 😎

[@suzylarry1]

great to see young lad helping, you can't buy that kind of help

[@augustreil]

Great video. Awesome job, "Scalemaster Andrew"

[@mikemuniak4711]

Your a pretty high tech farm ain't you,someday I would love to stop up and have an ice cold blue with you and check out your farm ,I love the videos ,

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Shoot me an email [e-mail]

[@jerrythegaffer]

Not sure about the music Andy ! The 4320 plays all the music you need. Cant beat the sound of a classic 6 cyl JD. Well done Andrew on the scales

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

The drone doesn't record sound

[@jeremysmits9784]

Why are you guys raking the straw? Are the windrows too wide for the pickup on the baler?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Yes, so the baler can pick it up

[@richardbloomfield1247]

This is the first time I've seen a John Deere tractor baling with a case ih baler

[@jocalafarms4051]

Should add a bale collection on the baler. It holds 3 bales so you can be more efficient loading the trucks. We drop then in one line middle of field so less loader work.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Yes we should

[@mikebonge7206]

That is a working rack that baler makes short work of a row. Who has there own scales. You seem to weigh everything. Is that due to Taxs or that a good business practice in dairy businesses

[@Ham68229]

In all honesty, it's just good business sense. If you only knew how much a farmer can get ripped off from someone fudging the scales at an elevator or other places. I've seen it happen, even had it happen once.

[@mikebonge7206]

@@Ham68229 never thought of that, thanks

[@martingreen5613]

As much land as that is a bigger rake that would combine 2 rows would save time and fuel and labor

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

The flying farmer nailed it

[@geesss8675]

You mentioned you uncle cut that stuff. Does he have a farm with cows also? Or does he just grow crops to sell? Was your dad the person who started farming and cows/ milking in that area?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Yes my uncle has cows, my father started the farm and before him my grandfather started it

[@charlesmccoury663]

Great video

[@r.gillis2245]

Much better Music, thanx

[@billvanvleet1226]

Just wondering why do you weigh all your products that you produce on your?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

To know what practises work best. Whether it be seed brands or Fertilizer placement

[@kopenhagenkid]

Will your skidsteers handle your big square bales

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Yes, they're not that heavy we can handle 2 at a time with our smaller skids

[@bigt6359]

Hi...what’s in the tank on the big square bailer?

[@bobnistler]

Fruit Punch

[@billbaas1402]

Big T that’s an inoculant tank mainly used when baling hay if you have hay that’s not dry enough you use that tank with spray I it

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Propionic acid

[@JoshuaSmith-xw6jp]

Labatt Blue

[@ryanbrooks3443]

Just curious do you ted the straw when you mow it?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Not unless it gets rained on

[@geesss8675]

Maybe junior needs a citizen's band radiator to talk to the truck after he scales their weight. And, it wouldn't hurt to get him some Johnny Cash albums and perhaps Commander Cody . . . And a geetar... My pappy said, "Son, you're gonna' drive me to drinkin' If you don't stop drivin' that Hot Rod Lincoln." Excellent video. . . That straw you were bailing. Is that a waste product of the alfalfa you showed the other day? Is that used as a feed for your animals?

[@TheGhostOfLuciasClay]

The straw is what's left after combining wheat. It'll be used mainly bedding the animals and in certain instances it could be added to the feed.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

A cb is a great idea, Andrew happen to mention that yesterday while we were chopping

[@zr440sp]

Someone probably already asked this, but why don't you have an accumulator on your big baler?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

We don't Bale that much

[@eddytobacco1]

Did you all run the mower over that or did he run the header that low?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Flex head on the ground

[@ryanbrooks3443]

What do you do with the straw once it's put in storage.?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

We bed with it

[@gordonbrand7021]

Andy, how much does each of those straw bales weigh? I'm guessing 150 to 175 lbs. Great shots from drone. Love your videos, many thanks from Huntington Beach (surf city USA), CA.

[@billbaas1402]

Gordon Brand those bales depending on size are closer to 800 pounds maybe a little less

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

About 600

[@tracy8591]

What is the white tank on the bailer for?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Preservative

[@tracy8591]

Thanks for the reply, you guys must have a moister climate that we do in western Canada we bake straw straight off the combine without and worries of rotting

[@mesh1248]

How many acres of alfalfa hay and how many acres of corn silage do ya grow

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Little over 3000

[@benlevasseur2830]

How many bales do you usually make a year?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Couple thousand is all

[@noelhohberger1188]

I want to see the other baler and I think the 4360

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

4620 and just need to get the video posted

[@davidkellogg4922]

What size is your class spinner rake

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Linear 470T

[@robertbradford2734]

NICE! 😉

[@frednewman2162]

What is tank for on back of baler?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Preservative, there is propionic acid in it for baling hay

But I do like it

[@dogwoodish]

thought we would see the old deer on the baler disappointed

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

That video is coming, just have to edit it

[@samkom33]

im sure that single rake does whats it build for, but it looks cind of vaste of time and fuel. since its not big enough to join 2 swaths i mean since most modern balers are wide enough to pick up an unraked swath even if its quite wide.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

All we were using it for is to tighten up the windrow so that the baler could pick it up. Tractor will go all day on 15 gallons of fuel

[@samkom33]

@@FarmingFixingFabricating yes after watching the video again, i have to agree.. its not a 60.000 pound 620 horsepower quadtrac pulling that rake. hehe And i also noticed the swaths after the harvester was quite wide some plases.. but say my neighbours KRONE BIGPACK baler have a 2,3 meter--- more than 7 feet wide pick up drum in front, that feed the concentrating drum that feed the chopper drum, before the straw-gras enters the bale chamber. hehe
