How Farmers Use Machines to Make Hay | Maryland Farm & Harvest

Making hay takes patience, good weather, and a lot of different machines! At 89 years old, farmer Glenn Rash has a lot of experience baling hay, and he has some awards from the Howard County Fair and Maryland State Fair to prove it! Over the course of several days, we see all the work that goes into a perfect load of hay bales.

So last week some farmer asked for help for their hay season for their horses, I volunteered a weekend to pick and load 19 tons of square bales. Seeing the square bale laying on the field made me wonder how it was done. That lead me to here and thank you for sharing these knowledge.

What a TOP MAN, 89 years young & still doing the job he loves, what an inspiration you are my-friend, if I'm fortunate to live to 89 & have stable mind & fit & agile as you SIR!! I'll be very lucky & a very happy man. Hay making was always my favourite time & still is, I've made my back creak many times pitching bales with a pitch fork, nice to have & work with the modern machinery of today though & the pitch fork a very distance memory. Never stop doing the job you love as it's such a massive part of your life, it keeps your mind working & your body fit & agile. Keep knocking them bales out my-friend & carry on as you do, those horses need your top quality HAY!!🐴🐴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍

I just cant believe how they have access to just such a large variety of fruits , trees and plants. Feels like they live in paradise. Fresh produce right on their door step , surrounded by nature and enjoyed together in a close knit family and community! All the money in the world cant buy what they have.

Great video. I haven't cut & bailed, for 2 or 3 years, since I don't have any horses now & my children are all grown & gone. But I plan on turning my ground over, reseeding, & seeing if my Grandson will help me, as he has in the past. I need something to do. Thank you again for the wonderful video.

[@r6exrider]

I wish we has stack wagons when I was young. I spent my summers throwing bails on a wagon. We were lucky enough at least to have an elevator.

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

Definitely mechanize the process as much as possible because it’s really hard to hand stack bales on a wagon or in a barn,,, and it’s really dusty too.

[@bradjenkins932]

Really??

[@kellyvaughn1854]

somebody needs to sit down and write with this master.

[@cajunnathan4586]

What is the length of your bales

[@farminghuntingtrapping-fht]

Just got inside first row in and the tractor ran out of water so it overheated just waiting for it to cool down or getting another tractor

[@MiguelRodriguez-eo5el]

No quiero ni imaginar que sera de la nueva generacion de ahora cuando nadie quiera hacer todo este tipo de trabajo!!!

[@claytonoverly189]

He actually just auctioned off his equipment this winter

[@marciasnyder7372]

Investing in crypto is the best way to earn financial freedom.

[@gomezgarcia730]

Investing in today is priceless because tomorrow isn't promised, trading Bitcoins,gold, silver and crypto secure a better tomorrow.

[@walterbriggs931]

Without doubt crypto is so money making.

[@amarmikhail533]

This is the kind of information that we don’t get from most youtubers..

[@karenphilips4225]

I understand the fact that tomorrow isn't promised to anyone, but investing today is a hard thing to do because I have no idea of how and where to invest in?

[@user-ln7tc9bd9c]

@@karenphilips4225 that won't bother you if you trade with a professional like Mr Jay Frank.

The missus should get some exercise. Just sayin’.
