I never would have thought to feed pea vines and pods to cattle, but I live out west and we have a lot of citrus orchards and the dairy farmers buy the orange peels from the processing that makes orange juice to mix into the feed and the cows love it. Great video.

I started out with a used 4800 Hesston ton baler. Bought it for $12000 in 1990. I owned it for thirteen years. But in the year 2000 I bought a 8580. The 4800 was a dirty baler to maintain. It had 140 grease zirks to grease and the big chain was a beast to fix. The 8580 was a very nice baler. I still own it but retired it two years ago. We bought a 2270 3x4 Massey high density baler. It is the best baler I have ever owned. We can pack bales they weigh 1700 lbs. amazing.

I had never seen a big square baler until I started going west in 1995. I was raised in southeast Missouri in an area that was all row crop and seldom even saw hay being baled although often saw straw. I had seen round bales but it was that late before I saw the big square bales. I have seen red bean hay being baled but never pea vines since there were no such crops grown in that area when my family lived on a farm. Thanks for the education, I like your channel have been a steady viewer for several years now.

Back in the 1980s in the UK, I ran a Hesston 4800 behind a Fiat 160/90 ant later a Massy Ferguson 3680 mainly baling wheat and barly straw.They where stored until the autumn then chopped up onto carrots for winter protection against frost. nice to see this variant in action,thank you sir!

Here in the UK we call the pea harvester a pea viner , used to drive a FMC self propelled one back in the 90s. I'm very surprised that they can bale after them, never seen that before, over here the pea straw after the viner used to start rotting within a couple of days, saying that as soon as the viners came out of the shed it usually started to rain for most of the season. Only ever baked pea straw after the combine harvester when the vines had dried out properly. Great video, hopefully see more pea viners on the channel 👍👍

Very interesting. Superb job Jason. Questions; Since the peas are harvested green, how long do they have to let that residue dry before they bale it? Do they rake it at all or just leave it sit to dry? Or is it baled at high moisture?

Enjoy vid BTP👍Can’t remember model but it’s MF from mid 90’s very similar CaseIH. Last year some our crops were effected by the drought which didn’t do well at the head, lack of rain to fill the heads. Our MF 9435 windrower cut wheat/canola into rows, then mates MF baler press into large bales, these bales were pick up by our Chamberlain Loadstar tractor. All bales were sold to feed company.

@greggergen91044 жыл бұрын
When I was a kid they had stationary viners (combines) they would haul the peas to the vinary and fork them into the machines. That would cause huge stack of vines. Think of a large silage pile. The vines were stacked while wet and you ended up with essentially "Pea Sauerkraut." The following Winter we would go to the Pea Viner and pitch the vines onto hay wagons. The Vines were compacted, and the tangled mess was a bear to pitch. You would have to cut through the vines, with an old flat disc blade bolted to a crow bar. Then you would tear the vines off the stack one fork at a time. Hey, but what else you going to do in January and February in Minnesota?

When peas are grown here, (I don't know if they will again.. I think the processor in Washington state closed.. ) All the residue is worked into the ground to help with next year's crops.. Would love to be able to bale it and have it for feed though!!! We run the same baler, just the other color.. 1996 Hesston 4900. We make grass hay in the hills of the north Willamette valley. We've also made red clover and alfalfa hay.. something we need to plant again!!
