SILAGE 2024 BROUGHT THE UNEXPECTED

It's silage time!

[@matthopper7411]

Wow thats absolutely fantastic numbers on 10 acres well done!!

[@MrJonah53]

At 15, I started work on a farm, and was told by a 85yr old farmer, something that he said I would never forget. If you can see the mountains, it's going to rain, if you can't see them, it's raining. He was right, I haven't forgotten it, 60yrs on.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Haha yes we always say that here too 🤣

[@menright28]

Great result with the bales Karen. Having practically all of next winter's fodder already secured is a great relief. Enjoy your few drinks, you have something to celebrate.

[@TobyHolben]

Job well done!! Your cows will thank you for it 👍

[@Gingerbusdairy]

Fact

[@steyrman2]

Great return on the bales second cut is never a bad thing to have as we say up here better to have it than want it can’t beat being ready for winter

[@colmortimer1066]

I really like the real time shots of the tractors running, I'd always like to see more of that than the sped up bits with music over it, personally. Plus grass work is one of my favorite activities to watch anyway.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

I can try to do more of that. Usually the wind here ruins those kinda shots so you can't hear the machines but when it allows I put them in. We're just very high up here so it's always windy

[@dellhell8842]

It's always great when you get the weather.

[@mikeman584]

A good bit of skill dropping those big bales off where they aren’t going to run away and smash something up. Mother Nature has given you some love congrats Karen and your Dad.

[@aaronsanborn4291]

Meh not really...has to have a pretty decent grade for bales to roll

[@lauriepearce8266]

Excellent news Karen. I am and doubtless many others are delighted for you 🙂

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Thank you 😊

[@alanhall9114]

as the funky farmer would say you got a hell of a crop of grass 103 bales and good weather as well keep up the good work

[@richardparkinson8651]

Well done to you, a serious looking crop and nice to finally see a proper deere in your fields 😂

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

I take this one over the other type anyway 😂

[@johnmcmccormack9203]

Well done Karen, don't cut corners get another cut on one field anyway as you don't know what next winter or spring will bring and you can always sell any surplus if you want to..

[@lesterhertel2945]

Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊😊😊

[@jackthewisedog5171]

nice job on the silage

[@bernardcasey1500]

Wel done on the bales and it will be good feed

[@ivanvolchek1187]

Thank you for the video. It's interesting for you to watch, working on a farm is hard.

[@Gearoid35]

That's a great amount of bales make another lot and sell in the spring.

[@raybrophy1297]

Super result Karen your Dad was on the ball with the weather...well done

[@davidgilliland2658]

Well done Karen. Lovely crop of silage. You will get a few more in the second cut xxxx

[@1ADP]

WOW nice footage of Ireland in the sunshine 🌞and lovely to see some action,hope the analysis on the silage is good and nice situation needing just a few extra bales,but then if have spare grass maybe you could sell a few bales.

[@TheStuport]

💥Almost 20 Thousand Subscribers💥 WOOHOO Being that we are in a Leap Year Karen, seems like 5-7 days later in the cut compared to last year would be perfect and the final bale count of 103 was spot on! Very nice too that the weather played a positive role in the cutting as well! On a side note, the views of the countryside and lake were stunningly beautiful. An artist could produce a proper painting and I would gladly sit in a chair for some time and just stare at it too! I know the views are better in person, but I got a sense just from your video! Glad for you and your Dad and Rob and the rest of the Lads! Stay Safe and Keep Strutting and Smiling! Cheers From Across The Pond In COW-lumbus, Ohio MOO 👋

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Thank you!

[@dannypahl829]

Hi beautiful Karen Ty for another great video I hope you and your family are doing well from Woodburn Oregon 🇺🇸 USA I like your music.

[@coughlantom4139]

Always great to get the silage right & watching it being cut I thought she has nailed this. Keep 'er Lit.

[@davidmarshall6436]

Hi Karen, another great video, fine crop, plently round bales of silage.. when weather is good it makes it easy for farmers..

[@richardhughes6353]

Great video as always really enjoy bailing time. Knowing you have enough feed for the winter is always a relief. over 10 bales to an acre is an amazing crop. Well done

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Ya I'm so surprised because it was slow but just took off all of a sudden then

[@JOHNJONES-hz2em]

Well done Karen , the farmer next door has a bit of competition . Enjoy that drink you deserve it, Go Girl🤣👍

[@richardconnor349]

Go for taking your 15 bales that will set you up for years that ya won’t be short and just use last year’s first and ya will never be under pressure then regardless of the spring

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Ya I think that's what we'll do alright

[@johnlydon533]

Great video Karen. Great result on bale count. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@ultanb]

That's a good return from 10 acres. Nice to get the unexpected extra bales. Hopefully the weather will cooperate with you guys for reseeding

[@IanPothecary-dx1jd]

Hi Karen, Thank you for your kind wishes. The operation went well and I'm back home with the family now feeling great. I'm glad the stress is easing for you now the silage is safe. What a beuatiful landscape you have to live and work in. Wishing you a chilled weekend, Cheers. Poth.

[@philipcounsell4709]

A good wholesome crop Karen, looks like you caught it just right. And with the extra bales , you've managed it very well. ♥️👏👏👏

[@livingbreathbybreath5036]

I absolutely loved watching the baler work!! It's so satisfying somehow. LOL.

[@gethinjones1348]

Awesome score with that amount of bales Karen! Great job all around by everyone! 👍🏻

[@Tractors_steam]

Great video Karen certainly not summer in any part of the country.

[@briankeegan8321]

Good news Karen .. nice to see you get a bit of luck ..

[@cheechU38K]

I’m so happy you got over 100 bales, Karen 🎉 finally the weather is calm ☺️ hopefully no pesky crows 🐦‍⬛ peck too many holes 🕳️

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

I must get painting them

[@cheechU38K]

[@user-xy8dr4us2j]

There was one very nice thing about the driver I like the way he put all bales together

[@seamuspower5900]

Bales look fantastic ...great timing on the mowing ...great job

[@haggielady]

Good on you Karen and your Dad. Perfect timing after a crazy spring. You're all set now and the second cut will put you over the mark. Enjoy your evening and weekend, you deserve to relax now.

[@123456BobJackson]

Great news for you guys

[@TerryWright-xk2eu]

Love the video, you could see it' was a good cut when they were going round, I miss the smell of fresh cut grass, Here in the south of Spain we just have dust too deal with.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

I would love a bit of Spain's heat though

[@maginnisbaling]

Great job, and well done, your dad not liking the dry bales, but i see your raking, so id definitely get your contractor to use the spreading vanes on his mower, theyll not dry out to much, grass will be perfect and a few less per acre means a few euros in your pocket

[@snakeboren4814]

Like The Background..Music..Karen...!!!!

Thank you

[@robertjones3406]

Well done once again Karen and when i saw the first cut you did the growth was enourmos and it is time this went you way and now with better than expected bale numbers sit back put your feet up and thank the Lord for Blessing you and your Dad for all you combined hard work not jusytphysiacly but mental as well. By the looks you may even get another light cut later if needed and i did notce the thickness of the stems as well so the ground is responding to your constant fertilizing. Aussie Bob

[@Arham7cheema]

Hello Karen i am a new subscriber i became sad to read about your dad for accident God bless him health your videos are awesome and very informative thank you

Super stuff as always

[@jimgannon1917]

great result..

[@FrancisMurnaghan-xr9vz]

Well done Karen and Dad it will hopefully help over the winter season. Could you get dad to to buy a 2nd hand loader for your convenience??? It’d be a great asset to the MF 390. Good luck and take care.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

I'm getting one myself I have it sorted but just need it to be taken off their tractor and put on mine but will hopefully have it soon

[@preyn1624]

Crap we've had so much rain in Maine farmers are just now getting to the first cutting. Was so wet last year my uncle only got one cutting of hay.

[@richardmckelvey2275]

Well done

[@brianm3290]

Hi Karen, just an idea, what do you think of getting a solar power electric fence. No battery needed, no mains power needed either. There is a company called Country Farm supplies who sell the solar power electric fence. It's just an idea. I taught I would pass this on. Keep up the great work. Brian.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Yes I've seen them. they are very expensive though so think I'll wait until this battery goes and might think about investing then

[@rossnolan2883]

Smashing 😊😊😊😊😊

Small 3rd use as soon as cattle go or mix it up till used.

Hallo Karen great results with the bales nearly all the fodder secured with the first cut will you spread slurry on the silage ground now

[@LTeppler]

Lovely to see! :D What would be your first instinct? Buy the rest of the bales or.....?
