Drying Late Season Forage (Expert Level Hay Making)

This is our last outing of the 23 season and what a wonderful send off it was.

Nothing smells better than a barn full of fresh hay.

Our horses used to love the clippings from the lawn mower.

Interesting to see that you test how fit the hay is the same way my dad taught me way back in the 1970's in the UK. Get a hand full, pull it out in both hands and twist. We can get away with a couple of green stems and no mould. Looks great hay for young stock

There are some worldwide truths to this hay game it seems!

[@HAKICAR888]

Hello, I am from Kazakhstan and I would like to learn from your farm. I also grow alfalfa in Kazakhstan. But there are no good farms here to learn from. I wish you good luck.

Good video.

The latest we ever baled 2nd crop hay was November 26th.. In Aroostook County Maine!

Can you inter-see alfalfa if you have a sorta bad stand after first seeding. For context we planted a plot into alfalfa during the summer and didn’t get much rain so we never got a cutting off of it, and not this spring we are noticing the stand is a little thin. Could I interseed more alfalfa or is that a bad idea? Located in North central Missouri.

Why you don't put the bundler right behind the bailer? Save in one tractor worker 👍

[@FarmingInsider]

Well we would need 7 bundlers for each baler so that’s mostly why

Great ending to the year ! Excited to see those double balers showing up on YT ! Only two brands I’ve been seeing is the JD one and the Paksan from Europe? Are there anymore you’ve had your eyes on?

[@darrenserafin6544]

Haul to northern New mexico be nice

[@FarmingInsider]

That’s a long trip!

[@jimcox6687]

The double balers i seen at the farm machinery show listed for $200,000.00

[@FarmingInsider]

Isn’t that crazy?!?

[@bobmoroney3643]

Teach him well Carl.

[@sasha-norwey]

Hello. do you need workers for the farm? I'm looking for a farm job!

[@halseyfarms]

What do you guys think about the new baler made specifically for the bale barron? I have a hard time wrapping my head around a 3 string small bale
