I learnt to drive a grey Ferguson back in 1958 on my uncles market garden farm, left school spring 1960 and went to work on a dairy farm. Two brother had three farms between them and grew all there own cattle feed, silage, hay and grains with the straw baled for bedding. They had 13 tractors between them and new kid on the block me got the way old Fordson TVO/Petrol beast. My first job was to muck out the winter sheds, hand balling onto a tipper trailer, haul that to a field and dump it to weather out. Once I finished the small sheds, I was given a Fordson Major with a front fork loader, man I was in heaven no more hand blisters. Each day I practised backing the trailer faster and faster until I could do it flat out in high range. Now the trailers were Weeks Trailer with the axle right on the arse end, so easy to reverse, the did axle ones were a bit harder to get the swing just right. Once a week I would attend the Young Farmers Club and they asked for contestants for an up coming YFC show, one of the other tractor drivers put my arm up and I was picked. Well I won the trailer backing and came second in the plow mount and dismount competition. The two bosses were so pleased they got me drunk in the beer tent. So watching you bale the hay brought back lots of memories, our baling outfit was a Massey Ferguson 35 tractor, Massey Ferguson baler and a farm made skid. The bales were taken of the baler by hand, stacked on the skid 4 high, a scaffold tube with a 1ft point would be driven into the ground in front of the bale stack, held in place and as the skid pulled forward the stack would slide off. Hopefully Always good to see you guys getting the crops in, well done.

I really enjoy your videos. Love the square bailing process. I hauled hay one summer when I was 15 years old. My friend Ronny had an old truck with a wooden flatbed built onto it. We could load 50 bails onto the truck’s flat bed. . Each of us made got a penny a bail. The truck had a granny gear. We tied a rope to the steering wheel and put the truck in granny gear. We tossed bails until one of us had to start stacking. The person on the ground would adjust the steering wheel occasionally. We did hay hauling all summer. One day a farmer drove out in the hayfield to get us to help him get some alfalfa bails put up before they got rained on. He paid us two cents a bail each. We helped get his hay put up in the hay barn and then went back to our original field. It never did rain that day. Ronny sold his truck for $150 at the end of our summer break. The truck leaked water and was not licensed. The truck did not have doors on it, nor seat belts. Neither of us had a drivers license. We decided we had pushed our luck far enough driving the back roads. Plus, we did not want to haul any more hay after that hot summer.

Have you ever thought about using presevatives to help with baling high moisture hay?
@culmalachie6 жыл бұрын
Short answer - Yes! - but few of our Customers want / request it... Even for treating moist feed grain ( PropRionic Acid). and from MY POV, the corrosion of the equipment - especially now that small SQ balers are so rare and expensive... Huh shouldav left it as SHORT Answr ! Looked into it further this teabreak - googling hay additives UK - poor first results - all geared towards Silage: BECAUSE our climate produces damp air and with dew by 6pm one could only have around 4 hours optimum time. But hay is a Cinderella Line of forage conservation - My Sq bales are small sacked outdoors for a week or two to dry out, but we have taken them indoors to dry over a ventilated floor ( grain drier ) Means of lot of handling but quality is there. Not a believer in Round bales Maybe for Straw but then have to be BIG - but that advantage is negated by transport restrictions - and is there now a 6' x 5' round baler on the UK market? If you're not into Mass baling with ROUND bales, you'll likely be involved with the Large Sq Bales. Such is the way farming has gone here.... ? Noted comment about hay TOOO DRY !! ? what's the problem there? Baled straw when tinder dry and loved it - brings up a polish on the bale chamber which DOES get quite HOT from the pressure - Deere 456 with auto pressure regulator.

My high score on a farm was with an Aliss Chalmers 5050 tractor and a no.9 Massey baler :450 bales in an hour! It would take us 5 to 10 seconds only to change wagons and i was baling faster than the guys stacking in the barn!

10 acres? That would have taken me about two hours to bale. And 900 bales would be about 33.75 tons. At 75 pounds a bale.

Watching you bale brings back memories of when I was baling, I wasn''t out of HS yet, the tractor was a model 4010 JD, which was a new model then, a JD wire tie baler and a 4 wheel haywagon on the back with two guys picking the bales out of the baler as they came out. The backing of a 4 wheel wagon was no fun. We owned a JD model 60 two cylinder tractor, with a narrow front end, no power steering, and a hand clutch. Now THAT took some time!

I used to do all my own hay from cutting to raking to baling for my own use with horses, cows and goats and sheep. The equipment I used was 'old'. Had 2 tractors, both International Harvesters both very old. One was a 40's something cub with a tricycle front end that we had the sickle bar hooked to for cutting and an H tricycle front end that we pulled the rake and baler with. The baler was an old John Deere 24T powered by a 2 cylinder air cooled Wisconsin Engine. It may have all seen more hay than a lot of folks can even imagine but all of it worked great and accomplished the job. I loved driving those old tractors. Don't have them any more and definitely miss doing hay every summer.

I can do it all myself. I can’t bale and stack hay on a hay wagon by myself. With the accumulator I can stack it all on wagons with a tractor and unload it the same way

More tractor work yes but absolutely no manual labor. When you get to doing over a thousand bales a day by yourself you can’t do that by hand but you can with this system.

never have seen the piece of equipment being pulled behind the baler. Ive live my whole live around hay country, in Central Washington, and done baling with Freeman Balers, and we use New Holland Harrowbeds to pickup the bales. one farm I work at raise's over 5,000 tons of Timothy a year.

I have considered an accumulator, but not sure if I can do enough bales in one day. How many bales have you baled, picked up from the field, and stacked inside in one day by yourself? My wife won't bale hay! lol
@DLHFarms6 жыл бұрын
About 1000 bales if you have enough trailers or if your close to the barn. I've done it it's a hard day, but if you get caught by the rain it sucks because it will be baled sitting in the field.
