That was a neat trick leave with a Nuffield and return and it a Massey 135 magic. I have a Massey 35 Deluxe, use it for blowing snow and grading drive ways. I only have half an acre so it doesn't get a lot of work but we are available if someone needs us. Beautiful countryside, love seeing the Nuffield working, I haven't driven a Nuffield since 1973. Great video thanks.

It seems hay making is rather cut and dried. We used to make the square bales. It was a chore to pick them up and stack them on a trailer. Then drive to the barn, unload them, and stack them again. Hay dust and hot weather did not make for a good time. It is a feeling of satisfaction to know you can feed your animals through the winter after all that work though.

The haybob type of machine is still a very good reliable all rounder. Using contractors suits your farming system but might not suit others, having their own equipment and doing it themselves might be better system. Wrapping bales uses quite a lot of plastic. The growing awareness of the environmental issues associated with plastic, clamped silage may be the future. Keep the videos coming, I don’t think you have shown any chain harrowing or rolling videos?

We get fusion bales. Additive, chopping and six wraps. These days, due to getting on for 80, we get a contractor in to mow with front and side mowers and then he makes rows as you do to make good even bales. I prefer haylage because you don’t get the fust and dust you get with hay that can cause lung problems. The bales go to a dairy farmer who is particular in what he feeds his calves and dry cows.
