[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Good old memories I bet 👌👍

[@redmapleleaf4617]

Well, those boys picking up those hay bales in shorts are tough! Strong enough that they don't bang against their legs and fill them up with slivers!

[@keithpadbury9818]

Memories of hay carting with the footy and cricket club. Hot and hard but good times.

[@tim7409]

Love your hedgerows and pasture

[@colinkennedy8730]

Well done team you all deserve a beer

[@johnjordan4647]

Can concur Andrew picking up small bales has a sense of community about it. Comment about picking up hay whilst wearing shorts. If one checks out the hay bale it has sharp stalks ( ouch) on one side while on the other side it is folded over and is smooth. That is the side you put closer to your legs. Looks like a nice day for it and finished off with a feed and a beer 🍺

[@galeparker1067]

Love the old school Massey Ferguson! We have a small block in the Wairarapa. Been looking for an older tractor for a year but all the good ones are either up north or in Canterbury 😅

[@JDseller1]

A couple of things: 1) What brand is that square baler?? 2) We still make 3-4K square bales each year. My grand Daughters run a horse stable in the old horse barn here on the farm. There are 16 stalls. They are a carry over from when this farm was farmed with horses. During the 1970s to the late 1990s we baled 35,000-40,000 small square bales every year. It took that many to fill the hay barns on my farm and my Maternal Grand Father's farm. We sold about half of those and feed the milk cows the rest. We pull a four wheel wagon right behind the baler on which we loaded the bales. Six high with a double tie on top was 256 bales on each twenty foot wagon. The kids for several generations made their spending money working to put hay up in this area. I would bet there are maybe 3-4 farmers still making small square bales in this county.

[@williammacky2360]

I think the baler is a Massey Ferguson

[@bobbob-fg5wy]

Talk to a contract sprayer. If you’re sewing into existing pasture I’m sure there’s something you can spray before hand that will sicken but not kill, put enough delay on existing grasses to get what you’ve sewn in the advantage and increase success post germination by reducing competition.

[@mariannegoudswaard3996]

Lovely video. I didnt do my little hay patch this year. I bet you enjoyed yesterday's rain.

[@brianjonker510]

Here in NY state from the early 50's to the early 90's most family farms put up thousands of these every year and the games me & my cousins would make from stacks of these.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

The gold ole days 👌

[@gregsullivan8956]

Thanks ❤

[@digthisnz1943]

Interesting what you say about the grass seed strike. We drilled the same stuff at about the same time and had exactly the same results as you. Hard to see the rows, some grew but very weak looking stuff that didn’t seem to kick on.

[@caveweta]

4 days with 30c sunshine, followed by a day with 12mm rain. What an awesome summer we’re having.

[@peasant5612]

Geeez that's hot, up northland we haven't had it that hot. And overnight some rain has arrived . Keep the grass ticking along

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

It turning out to be a good one 👌

[@MarkDonnelly-j9v]

Hi I like your video

[@RobertCowden-y3c]

Now I finally know why you only milk once a day. It's the work we would put up 50000. Bales a year lol

[@johnmoore2555]

That’s a lot of bales

[@davidcurley7901]

Hello, how much did you have to pay for the little square bales?

[@carlwereld5131]

Keep in mind how easy you it now have as dairy farmer with silage baleles/pit

[@multipower617]
