Fords, New Hollands, Vermeer, and Massey Ferguson. We Use Them All On This Hay Operation.

The family pulls together for the shortest window of opportunity to get first crop hay in from the fields. We continue cutting and raking, but now it's time to bale it all up before more rain! I once again teach my wife how to drive tractor. She is quick to learn and soon on her own. Join us for another family affair here on our farm!

As an old farmer that raised a lot of hay I would say to roll 2 or 3 of those windrows together

[@YourFamilyFarmer]

Normally I would, but we were expecting rain so I decided to rake single rows to get quicker drying.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

That’s a very nice little Ford. Perfect for raking. We still haven’t had three dry days to allow us to start baling.

[@YourFamilyFarmer]

Thank you! I hope you get a break in the weather and soon!

Good luck baling your hay

As thin as that hay is you could roll three or four of your windrows together, lot less weaving with the baler then.

[@zilla2006able]

how many acres do you farm???

[@YourFamilyFarmer]

175 Acres.

[@bradjenkins932]

Do you have to disengage PTO to dump bale?

[@YourFamilyFarmer]

I believe the owners manual for this model recommendations shutting off the pto. I will double-check.
