Rake and bale hay at the Same time with Baler Connection Gerraldfarms

[@brucekoster9253]

Putting up hay was one of my favorite jobs on the farm. The smell of newly cut alfalfa or even prarie hay was amazing. Very efficient operation here.......too bad they have to drive over the hay to start with....but I'm sure they aren't losing too much. Nice job !

[@GerraldFarms]

Thanks for watching and commenting. There’s not much loss on our coastal Bermuda hay. Have a good one

[@RickBork]

That's a big ol' Rake right there I hardly got fields big enough to run my loader mounted rake. Thanks for another great video man. Take care.

[@GerraldFarms]

Thanks for watching. Yea that 12 wheel would over work my 574 trying to bale. Have a good week

[@stevemac5117]

That's a nice looking setup Jacky. Sure would save some time raking and baling at the same time. Thanks for sharing.

[@GerraldFarms]

@@GerraldFarms Thank y for the reply! Will see what's up on Sunday. If you are all modern farmers, I will be left out. But I could see it a good way to catch up. Wish you a great weekend also!

[@AJmx2702001]

Thats a nice setup and sure is a time and money saver . I have been around setups with the rake mounted to tractor front 3 point and they pull the baler behind them like usual

Super slick setup!

[@GerraldFarms]

Thanks for watching. Now I want one. It would look crazy behind my 574.lol. Have a good one

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

@@GerraldFarms no doubt Jacky!

[@kswaynes7569]

That makes for some efficient baling. Take good measurements, you can add this to your operation Jacky. If you doubt yourself, another (recently deceased) KZbinr, North Texas Hay built his power shaft to power either his square baler or round baler. Several versions of bale beds are on most Kansas farm trucks, usually can handle 2 bales. Because cattle are spread out on rented pastures or winter wheat field over the winter, it is necessary to travel to supplement cattle feed with baled hay. Some bale beds unroll the bales.

[@GerraldFarms]

Thanks for watching. They seem to save time. Yea I herd about North Texas Hay. Thoughts and Prayers to his family. I’m taking good notes and pics for the future projects. Have a good week

Gerrald Farms I have a baler just like it (IH version) figured with the combo rake saving time the net wrap option would save add to that savings with time and weather of the hay.

4x5 1/2 ?

[@JamesOBrien2253]

Does the rake make windrows the same size as the baler pick up to make an even bale
