Can we make dry hay before the next rains.

Trying to bale the first dry hay of 2024 and it comes with issues.

Great video Brian and blessed wishes with your hay my friend. Take care and have a blessed week.

That rack does seem to do a great job. Thanks for taking us along with ya.

Sorry you couldn't bale it up man! I know the feeling. It's hard to make the right call sometimes. Wish you the best!

Brian, you brought up a lot of things in this video. Todd, as you said, is a fun kid to watch at Projectfarms. I, too, watch his reviews (especially for products I’m interested in). Unfortunately, a lot of the items are Chinese that he reviews; because there’s a lot of Chinese junk being imported). Your rake I am fascinated in. I think the center kickers are a novel idea - but the strip you mentioned is disappointing given the price of their option. As far as the Kubota M4-71D, it is a luxury utility tractor. That it lugs starting out in 2 High isn’t luxurious at all. I don’t know why it would do that pulling no more than a rake. Good video

Really nice looking rake, looks to be really worth it to get the high compassity feature . Thanks for taking the time to bring us along Brian!

If you like dirt, stones and sticks on your hay.

[@SLCFarms]

Keep your fields healthy and clean you don’t have that problem

@@SLCFarms What's your ash content?

[@SLCFarms]

@@bradjenkins932 not really an issue with our clay soil’s. Again set up properly you should never take dirt. We do all grass hay mainly fescue the fields are so thick the rake rides on the grass

Never heard of project farm. I need to check him out.

[@SLCFarms]

Definitely man

[@michiganhay7844]

Never heard of a bunch test that’s interesting that twist test I think the same as you if you could take a wad that thick and twist it three times and it snaps easily then by then I think your Hayes too dry but that has been what all the old timers have always said

[@Hobocreekfarm]

Does it make a difference or do you have a specific reason you raked the middle of the field before the edges? Edit, I should have just waited longer in the video for your explanation. Thanks.
