Good job my friend footage was great so was the music

[@caleywaleyicecream7963]

onelonleyfarmer hi I watch your videos they are really good both yours and How Farms Work

[@mattgrover9562]

that's always a good feeling just beating the rain

[@jamesoestrike2517]

Liked seeing the baling job from "all angles"! Great job!

[@MichaelMcGill_emtwo]

Probably my favorite video so far Ryan....Cinematography outstanding...especially the aerial work. I really liked the high altitude shot showing the contours of hay vs corn. Low altitude pass over the corn was really cool....Sound track worked really well too! Well done!!

[@AussieMusicRocks]

Another great video guys. Loved the camera angles and the music. Most of all I loved the drone footage. The contrast is amazing. Very beautiful farm to see from the air.

[@hoophil]

Great video Ryan! Thanks! Also, I really like your dog standing in the cab, looking out the front window. That is priceless.... a man and his dog! Glad you were able to beat the rain.

[@bermuda479]

with gopros and drones ..youtubers like yourself are making very cool and interesting videos ...keep up the great work ,and cant wait for many more from you ...thanks

[@buffranchAB]

get them hauled, baling is only half the battle, they have to be undercover, great vid Ryan

[@roadhogg1418]

really like the drone footage. Nice tight bales too.

[@shanegillespie6014]

Wow! I have watch you grow into a class act videographer. Really nice work, music and all!

[@niallhumphreys6918]

Great tractor great baler great vid

[@RKHarm24]

Very calming with the music. Nice video.

[@Masseydriver]

Cool video, I like the drone footage and all the different camera angles.

[@thelacustrian8573]

Nice shot from the bottom when the bale drops.

[@Rdrake1413]

Some really nice aerial footage.

[@EezeeListen]

Perfect bales, great music - a very satisfying and enjoyable video.

[@karlbrohammer9105]

Contour patterns very nice with blend of crops across the terrain. Great video, Good luck to all:

[@GraysFarm97]

Those are some beautiful contours

[@waterskiingfool]

You always have the best camera views

[@chucksmall2462]

Having your pet with you in the cab is neat as hell! Extremely well done video!!

[@1ausclaas783]

Great vid Ryan,Thanks again

[@keithbrettell2058]

Great job! I have to agree with Wes, the music was perfectly suited to your video.

[@remigagne450]

John Deere could never have a better video for advertising than this Video!!!

[@dunkelheit843]

very nice fotage and music in this video, well done.

[@vandewieljeroen]

i've been watchng your video's for a while now, and really like them. there's one thing that keeps me wondering why, and thats the curvy-ness of your fields, why not just straight ahead.

[@HowFarmsWork]

The contours are to reduce erosion. Furrows and implement tracks are meant to capture as much water as possible.

[@kerryburgess5989]

How Farms Work

[@jacobr9738]

This is the earliest I've ever been on a video!

[@jacobr9738]

And I got first like 👍 great vid

[@masonmusch]

Same

[@warrenswan7348]

Really like the more rural kind of music in this one. Much better than the urban (or urban-whannabe) music

[@larrysheriff8251]

Catching up on your video's Ryan.

[@Northern_Farmer]

I have to also agree... great footage. Dont you just hate those danm branches on the first round.

[@henriqueroque3701]

Beautiful

[@bluemtnsman]

Good job gents.

[@Caboosz]

love the landscape around your place. good video and souting music :) keep up the good work :)

[@bhurley5243]

Great Video!!!

[@joe3000ist]

Nice video. Lots of time was put into making this video

[@madeljacky]

Nice video Ryan, I haven't seen a belt baler in years, we all use roller round balers in Ireland, ours is an older Welger RP 200, they are bomb proof if looked after. A baler breaking down in the field and rain coming is not a nice situation to be in.

[@rogerwilson9361]

Ryan, I love to watch the baling video with both you and Travis are baling it something about not the need but like how you both work good video.

[@Tyou57]

Love the vids bro awsome coverages really nice farm thanks for what you you do

[@canvids1]

great video thanks.

[@santiagocosta3486]

great video regars from uruguay

[@markhertzog6636]

The book says you can leave the pto on when ejecting a bale. We never used to do it but it is actually better for the tractor. I slow the engine down when dropping one out then speed it back up when I take off. just my 2 cents.

[@josefonseca1233]

nice work farmers forever

[@vomlandaufsband9369]

Nice Video!

[@TwoHappyChildrenFarm]

Awesome

[@jbmbanter]

Looks mighty dry to me. I guess with all of the baling complete the rain would be welcomed. Is there enough time to make another cutting? Down here in the South I would think so but being so far North I'd have to wonder. :)

[@bobross3080]

Kool video! it"s pretty neat to watch the equipment in action. How long can you leave the bales out in the field before the rain soaks them and makes them rot?

[@Ag_n_Mech]

Since there net wrapped they'll last two or three years out in the field

[@bobross3080]

Is that because they are wrapped tightly and only the outside layer will rot?

[@Ag_n_Mech]

+Bob Ross partially but also because the shape of the bale helps water to shed off instead of soaking in

[@bobross3080]

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you for the info.

[@joetiller1031]

Great baling video, how is the bottle calf's doing.

[@agrartechnikmv4138]

good Video

[@colinmerwin3756]

Hey, I live about 20 miles away from were you are at, we know the sales man friends from slones

[@goldfire1676]

RYAN super job many thanks MARK case 110 IRELAND

[@karsonschepp1229]

It is thunderstorming here

[@raincoast2396]

That would be a good name for a farmer - Justin Time!

[@SirGranular]

Gives away the ending? :)

[@SaginawGS]

gorgeous contouring

[@BillTheTractorMan]

looks like some pretty wore out tires on the back of that tractor! lots of road wear?

[@Tractorandsirens]

I like big square bales because it's lighter and cheaper then the round bales u can bale wet hay with a round baler because it it packed tight when the net is on it and it's heavier my uncle use to have a round baler until he started to bale hay on a hill and a round bale went down the hill and into a highway

[@bodajenkins]

Im not a farmer by any means but I love watching your videos. I have 2 questions. 1. how do you know when the bale is done, i know new machines beep. Does yours beep? 2. what to you do if you dont have enough hay on the ground left to finish the bale?

[@oldpackfan]

I understand the stopping to tie or wrap the bales but why do you have to back up.Last time I baled hay we had just gotten a baler with a kicker so I guess I'm old school.

[@michielvangoethem4524]

Why do they use two narrow tires in america instead of 1 wide tire as here in europe? It looks much more expensive + it has the same ground-pressure or is that not the case?

[@shooter5543]

you may have said this in the past but I wondering how do you know when the baler is full and it's time to drop the bale?

[@joelground7557]

What size do you roll them at? They looked too short and wide to be 4'x6'.

[@kalonjohnson28]

When u gone give us an update on the calfs

[@DesertDigger1]

Can you explain why and how the weights work on the front of the tractor?

[@rightsideofthegrass8114]

How does the netting stay on the bale? How many wraps of the netting, before the bale is ejected? Maybe the multiple wraps is enough to keep it in place.... just asking.

[@lukestrawwalker]

Yes the net kind of "locks in" on to itself, and locks into the ends of stems of hay on the surface of the bale, and once the bale is on the ground, it's "pinched" between the bale and ground as well. It is stretched slightly as it's applied, and the tension of it trying to "spring back" pulls it tightly against the bale and locks it into place... Later! OL J R :)

[@garrisonb4534]

if u had a choice what would u prefer big square baler or round bales

[@laurencegibbs2753]

How wide are the bales? They look wider than the ones we bale in the UK

[@twschulz1]

I would like to learn about your contour fields.

[@ascarta]

ok I have what may be a silly question. why do people leave round bales outside? when I was younger (been away from farms for a long long time) the idea of leaving hay outside would get you a smack in the head or worse but now days I always see round bales outside, are they different? ideas changed over the years? It was always cut, bale, dry, and get in inside before the rain when I was a kid. or at least thats how I remember it.

[@lukestrawwalker]

Round bales shed water like a thatch roof... so long as the bales are tight and the hay is dense (fine stemmed-- the coarser the stems the deeper the water penetrates into the bale) the water will mostly run off the curved outer surface of the bale. Round bales typically suffer more damage from the part of the bale in contact with the ground wicking up moisture than it will from rainfall running off the outside. That said, proper placement and storage of round bales outside is absolutely necessary to minimize storage losses and preserve as much quality in the hay as possible. Round bales should be stored flat end to flat end tight together on high, dry, well drained ground. Actually some studies now say it's better to space the bales a foot or two apart flat end to flat end to allow airflow, but I question that due to the additional weathering of the flat ends of the bale. So long as the bales are even (not barrel or wedge shaped) and stacked tightly together and are the same size, the ends will pretty well "seal off" against the next bale and the ends will stay dry and clean. If they aren't, water can get between the bales and make a mess. It's best to store bales up off the ground, either on coarse crushed rock, old electric utility poles, pallets, old tires, etc. Anything to provide a little air space between the ground and the bottom of the bale, to prevent moisture wicking up into the bottom layers of the bale from the soil underneath. If round bales are to be stacked in multiple layer pyramid rows, they MUST be tarped to prevent moisture from running off the top row and down in between the top row and the rows underneath, causing rot. It's also a good idea to put boards onto the outside of the bales to prevent the tarps from coming into direct contact with the bales, as the tarps tend to "sweat" as they collect and condense moisture coming out of the hay or in the air, and then trap that moisture against the outer layer of the bale if in direct contact, causing mold and mildew. Of course it's best to store round bales inside to push losses to an absolute minimum and preserve the maximum quality, but it isn't strictly necessary as it is with small square or even large square bales, which do NOT shed enough water on their own to store outdoors unprotected. That's one of the advantages of round bales, in that they do not specifically require a storage barn or building or even tarping, unlike square bales. The cost and horsepower requirements of a round baler is also MUCH less than large square bales, while still creating a large, heavy package of hay that is more efficient to move than small squares (but less than large squares). Later! OL J R :)

[@sabastan2]

Have you you ever have one of the bails get away form you and roll in to the corn? and if so how much damage did it do?

[@HowFarmsWork]

We have had that happen which is why we don't have a kicker. Travis had one run down a large hillside and land in the crick sometime. Other times haven't done much damage.

[@bryang9095]

U put any fertilizer on your hay ground?

[@lukestrawwalker]

What? No footage from the cam under the baler during the wrapping cycle and bale eject, close the door and start again? Would have been interesting to see... Later! OL J R :)

[@thecoffeecup144]

Why do you turn your belts off when a bale is done?

[@lluisbruguerajuscafresa1108]

why do these fields have this weird way? INthe country where i live the fields are in general square

[@masonmusch]

Same

[@jaredstriha4004]

Looks like your missing a few hay guards there bud

[@richardbloomfield5836]

now get the bails out of the field in record time

[@jordykarremans3556]

Why do you shut de baler of when the bale comes out?

[@TheOAOMunchMunch]

How can you tell when the are ready to be ejected?

[@1macgeorge]

How many inches where those bales?

[@recycler77]

So it does not matter so much if the bales get wet(just wondering, i am completely new to this) ? Thought that they only were "safe" in the Barn or under a tarp O:) regards rec

[@tomparker3722]

round bales can be left out in the rain more than a square bale sue to the netting and shape allowing the water to run off and only getting a cm or so into the bale over time, whereas square bales need to be under a barn or tarp pretty quickly because of the flaps not being tight enough to stop water penetrating

[@recycler77]

tom Parker Thank you for the info. I know there is a system were the single bales get wrapped almost airtight in silage tarp/film, but that method seems to comes with some issue's, were those bales becomes unusable. regards rec

[@tomparker3722]

+recycler77 when wrapping round bales (and now square bales) you want the grass to be fairly green instead of dry like hay as you want to store the sugars within the grass making it like silage. But the only problem I know of is when the wrap gets punctured from birds continuously perching, the bale will rot over time

[@bryang9095]

O don't turn the baler off when u go to kick it out just let it run!!!

[@EmiDK]

Is this an old baler or does JD balers dont have a kicker behind it? Seems like a lot of gear shifting/reverse everytime you have to dump a bale. Great vid as always :)

[@Garrettschaak]

Still makes no sense we have 3 569 round balers with kicker bars on hills and all you do is kick it sideways

[@EmiDK]

Okay, guess that made kinda sense, but on flat land it really does make baling a lot easyer

[@HowFarmsWork]

On some parts of the land, there are no sideway parts. If we had a kicker in some places the bales would roll right off into the cornfield even if we ejected them on a slant.

[@user-vp6hk1yw6h]

+How Farms Work 있는 ㅡㅡ

[@EmiDK]

+How Farms Work okay. Gotta do it the way tha it works the best.

[@d3t37]

is that baler no knifes model ???

[@Herefordshirefarmvid]

Where is the PTO selector on the 7600? E.g 540, 540e and 1000?

[@silage6920s]

On the control panel on the right at the very back nearest the window and Pick up hitch.

[@kevinhearty4251]

no pickup hitches on yank tractors

[@kevinwillis9126]

would you consider getting a big square baler?.. or do you prefer the round bales?... Thanks for sharing....

[@deanthompson6645]

they are going to have to switch they are outlawing the round one,s

[@brennenb9609]

Y would they outlaw round bales?

[@Northern_Farmer]

lol yea sure.

[@deanthompson6645]

the cow is not getting a square meal now days

[@sammyfoxfox8890]

whats the name of the song in the begining

[@TheZwerfer14]

jane dheere

[@robinpaglomutan9316]

How many bales total?

[@kevindevries1940]

why do you have such small tyres under the 7600?

[@HowFarmsWork]

It's what we bought it with.

[@kevindevries1940]

+How Farms Work ahh allright

[@cameronkinnan6697]

And if i remember correctly it is what they call front wheel assist. Cause if it was 4x4 the tires would be the same size, you have a nice setup how farms work, big fan of John Deer, well i like them all, but yeah, love your setup, new school with a mix of old school.

[@petermillet485]

Nice footage under the pickup .Good job ,but marry Jaime ¡!!

[@dairecorcoran4952]

was there much bales

[@HowFarmsWork]

~54 I believe.

[@jrszabo900]

You got them made...now they have to picked up. That was the worst part of round baling.

[@dylanmalone4630]

Hi

[@jack99church]

Take the front weights off. U don't need them on

[@frednewman2162]

Not being up on round bailers, are the new generation of round bailers the same, where you have to stop and backup to eject the bail? Seems like they should be able to come up with a method of having the bail pushed back into an ejection chute, without having to stop and backup to eject. I don't know about anyone else, but that inefficiency would have me so annoyed by the end of the day, I wouldn't be able to go home for fear of taking my anger out on the wife, kids, or dog!

[@jaytonjones4498]

You can buy balers with a kicker arm but in situations where you're baling on uneven terrain it's best to not have one. You can't really stop a bale once it gets rolling.

[@farming4g]

Most newer balers have kickers or ramps, so there is no need to backup, except if it's on a steep grade.. There is some prototypes for some continuous round balers, which includes Vermeer and Lely.

[@ih1206]

You would still have to stop to let the bale wrap or tie either way you turn it. I don't disagree with that being an inefficiency, but that's the nature of the beast. I don't know of any system where you can run continuously on round balers.

[@audacitytheeditor3225]

The krone ultima round baler

[@daltondodson2943]

+Central Iowa Farmer you still have to stop to unload it

[@miker648]

How heavy is a round bale?

[@Dustin_Hruzek]

around 1500 pounds and then they lose weight as time passes.

[@Dustin_Hruzek]

They dry out further. It is grass so it begins to deteriate.

[@davestone983]
