Raking First Hay and Preparing to Bale Without New Holland for the First Time

[@boltactionshooter]

Can't wait to hear your thoughts and honest comparison between the NH and Massey.

[@bradygray424]

Missed your videos glad you’re back

[@eddiemashburn9491]

Great to see videos again! Really enjoy the hay video's! Boy that was a crazy camera angle when you started raking. Enjoyed it!

[@DLHFarms]

Thanks!

[@richnixon5849]

Good to see you back Dennis👍🏻

[@warrenpatton5138]

Hello from Bristol, I was thinkin you’d be balin now. They’ve been goin by the house for a week now. All round bales , several trucks and a few tractor trailers. Hope the baler works good for ya. See ya on the next one. Warren

[@DLHFarms]

Yep it’s that time again! Have a good one!

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Hello Dennis hoping to watch this baler working guess next time. Have a good day.

Yes be in the next video

[@jamesmorrison1884]

@@DLHFarms I like buying things like that and figuring out what's wrong. To me saves money

[@frankscruggs4749]

Good video.

[@casto-]

Your another step closer to what I’d consider the perfect baling set up! Just a CVT transmission and for me, a bale pack would be perfection 😁. Looking forward to seeing how the baler gets on 👍👍

[@aidenkoster6427]

You will love the inline

[@DLHFarms]

So far I do!

[@eof3100]

Have you tried some of the John Deere spray graphite for the squeaky seat it usually works when I cant get other things to work but you want to make sure you spray it where you want it because its not easy to get off if you have a miss fire.

[@DLHFarms]

I have not but I will try that thanks

[@markherrin5583]

Good to see you back, whats your ground speed/mph at 1700 rpm in this tractor?

[@DLHFarms]

Depends on what gear your in

[@PedroFlores-gp2ry]

Great to see you back on the field Dennis. I have NH Baler as well and I wanna upgrade let me know what is your opinion between both

[@DLHFarms]

I’m sure I’ll make a video on this topic

[@derekprinkey1249]

Man it's been awhile I was missing your video's

[@t.8130]

Glad see u back videoing

[@nalley6815]

Aw man a Massey baler!! Neat! Hope you like it! Lots of people switching to them. Have you thought anything about swapping out your BR7060 for another one? I don’t even know what I would buy. Seems like every time a manufacturer comes out with a new series they’re less and less reliable. Best of luck to you this season!

[@DLHFarms]

I’m scared to switch round balers this one has been so good.

[@nalley6815]

@@DLHFarms I probably wouldn’t. I believe the baler you have is probably the best series any manufacturer has ever made. The earlier BR series like a BR740 seems to have problems but the newer BR like your 7060 seems like they’re built like tanks. Heard that from a few friends as well. Whatever you do, don’t buy a Deere 0M series lol. Heard they’re built a whole lot worse than the 7, 8 and 9

[@mikesavage9325]

Good to see you making videos again and hay season back around Dennis. Hope your new baler goes well for you. it looks the part and it's a nice upgrade. Mike

[@DLHFarms]

Thanks Mike!

[@farmingforfunandprofit940]

You are going to love when you plug that sucker up!!!!!.....

[@DLHFarms]

Haha it’s not fun plugging anything up.

[@wesleysmith5580]

I was wondering when you were going with an MF Bailer, excellent choice. God Bless

[@DLHFarms]

Thanks!

[@wesleysmith5580]

@DLHFarms Moisture and Windrow Size are imperative. Once you set the baler, it's all about implementing consistent speed. Den hope you and the family have a safe and productive June. Blessed Be The Farmer 🙌🌟🙌🌟🙌🌟🙌

[@johnkemp4370]

New videos??

[@JohnJohnson-vx2wr]

Hello Dennis. Hope the new baler works out for you.

[@DLHFarms]

Thanks John!

[@ABMFARM]

Glad to see you back, new it was hay time again and thought you should be bailing by now...

[@wayneinnc5379]

Glad to see you back! Have you ever considered getting a NH bale wagon!! Thing holds around 160 bales.

[@DLHFarms]

No land too steep and can’t reload the bales with my grapple once unloaded in the barn.

[@wayneinnc5379]

@@DLHFarms yes, I can see that terrain would be a big problem with one.

[@РусланДихтенко]

Hello. I'm from Ukraine. I also want to use a preservative. If you can, tell me what preservative you use. At what humidity is the hay? How much does the preservative cost?

[@DLHFarms]

I use the harvestec brand of hay preservative. Here in the USA they sell it at New Holland, John Deere and Massey Ferguson dealerships. I use it for up to 25 percent moisture hay even though they say it can go higher. It cost about 13 dollars a gallon.

[@РусланДихтенко]

@@DLHFarms How much preservative is needed per ton of alfalfa at a moisture content of 22-25%?

[@greggardner2823]

Sounds like you have been super busy.

[@DLHFarms]

Yes very!

[@samuelscragg7052]

Interested to see how this baler works out for you. I like the concept of the inline baler. I’m have to give up my square baling just to old deal with them. Still round baling.

[@404nitro]

Shouldn't a MF baler be hooked to your MF tractor? Seems like it anyway. 🤔

[@DLHFarms]

No too much red. We’re going with a Christmas theme red and green.

[@404nitro]

@@DLHFarms LOL

[@jesselove6989]

[@farmshoffman8475]

Great awesome video Dennis

[@DLHFarms]

Thanks!

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Good to hear from you Dennis. Curious to hear your opinion on the MF baler. I know most people who buy them never want to go back to a traditional style baler.

[@DLHFarms]

Yeah I’m starting to lean that way too. I’ll know more by the end of the season but so far so good.

[@mastinfowler8225]

Did y’all get much snow up that way this winter?..I’m down in Disputanta Va..off of Rte 460..10 miles East of Petersburg..really like your videos..be safe out there in those mountains

[@DLHFarms]

We didn’t get any

[@StevesBeyondRepair]

good to see you back! the new bailer video was nice. good to see how you messed with it to get it just right.

[@DLHFarms]

Thanks

[@thr8061]

Our weather here in WI was whacked all spring as well. We had a week plus of upper 80s in April, then we got cold & snowy again. We seemed to go back & forth between hot & cold. Now we have a 2 week stretch of upper 80s in mid-May and the beginning of June it will cool down to 70s. Some of the early planted crops got frost bitten. The alfalfa really is slow and short this year due to the weather.' Take Care & God Bless.

[@DLHFarms]

Yeah my alfalfa way under performed but it’s been super cold and dry for spring. The orchard grass in the alfalfa was already heading and turning yellow so that’s why I went ahead and cut it

[@memyselfandifarmer]

I was wondering if you were able to get started on your hay. The weather in southern Indiana set me back by a couple of weeks getting a couple days break (rain chanced over 50% for Wednesday). After rain hard back at it. Hope your season a good one.

Hope it goes well!

Hey I seen you baling when I went to the preview for Medows of dan farm service sale

[@bjenkins803]

I haven't seen a massey baler in a long time. That one looks like a mower more than a baler. Looking forward to see how it operates.

Haha it’s a new type that mows and bales in one pass. Jk
