We Need To Bale So We Can Plant Maize!

[@theunisleroux6034]

Nice to see somebody from SA!! Springbuck vs Kiwi LOL. Thanks for a very cool Channel!

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Thanks for watching 👌👍

[@cdemo1186]

Great to see the McHale combi baler,all the way from Éire 🇮🇪 Sweet spot to store those bales Andrew. Looking forward to seeing it tidied up and bales put in. 👍🏼

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Best balers around! 🇮🇪 👌

[@victorbarnard3931]

I also love watching videos of farming in different countries. I am from South Afrika but workiing on a dairy farm in the USA the last few years,

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Awesome thanks 👌👍

[@gerryoconnor3414]

Very good quality stuff. Here in Ireland we usually get 10 bales to the acre. But we get a 5 month winter inside in the shed so you are very lucky.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

That’s pretty good going! 👍

[@tonyreynolds5112]

I had never seen a baler of that design. Always glad to see something different. Thanks for the video. 🇺🇸

[@ohdeere904]

Irish made in Mayo. Extremely reliable machinery

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Awesome, they’re pretty efficient 👍

[@robcaseltine2484]

Another great video. I enjoy watching to see how things are do in other countries.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Thanks mate 👌👍

[@glenkoopman7347]

99% sure that's the same Mike whos old farm was just up the road from me remember he had a John deere like that and was a bit of a builder man. His old farm was quite steep and definitely needed the duals not so much on your place

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Yep would be, he used to be out wharepapa south, and was pretty steep 👍

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

@@glenkoopman7347 haha hardcase!

[@8719jason]

Great video there again Andrew keep up the great work its very interesting the day in the life of a farmer and seeing how things are done 😃

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Cheers Jason 👍

[@user-wv4xc1us6u]

Beautiful Waikato dairy country

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

👌👍

[@ohdeere904]

Mikes John Deere would be an ideal tractor for you on the farm

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Yeah ideal size for us 👌👍

[@ritchiechristopher5603]

Nice silage gear there. Looking forward to the tilling and drilling mate.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Won’t be to far away 😉

[@stevedarcy9542]

Awesome video as always Andrew. Go Mike the mower man. Or should I say multi Mike, he’s like a Swiss Army knife, you pull him out and he does it all, I wonder if he paints haha. Great drone footage mate, some really beautiful scenery. Strange your bales are for the summer, where we use them in the winter. Great to see a bit of horse power around the farm. Already looking forward to seeing your next video my friend. Thanks Andrew for sharing.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

👌👍

[@garymadden2656]

Great video Andrew and a Mc Hale baler from Ireland 👌

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

[@gerryoconnor3414]

The McHale is the best baler in the world. All the way from Co. Mayo.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Absolutely! 👌

[@nickbishop6174]

Awesome vid mate

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Thanks 👍

[@peasant5612]

Mike must be a real handy guy to have around, demolitian then builds then mows the grass !! good stuff. Wow making bales and planning lime and maize , here in northland it's just way too wet again, we had a nice dry spell that got the grass going now back in the monsoon season it's seems. ON the AB topic, let us know how you pic a bull over the each cow etc...and any AB contracts this time etc... awesome thanks very much

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

I see it’s been really wet up there! Hopefully it means the drought won’t be so severe 🤞 Yep I’ll go into a bit, I really only pick certain bulls for cows I like or are my favourites. Sadly no contracts this year 😩

[@johnbrown8627]

hi from scotland good video .i like mchale baler and the fendt tractors and i have about 30 acer to cut for 3 time but it is to wet

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Hey thanks for watching! Hope you get your grass cut soon 🤞👍

[@john0032]

Pretty sure we had that thunderstorm that you sent over the hill, but we take so you can get bales done

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

😂👍

[@MarkDonnelly-j9v]

Hi i like your video

[@lillyhassel5439]

From Pa

[@nickmarriott4520]

I recon that tractor had just enough HP to run the tedder, wouldn't have wanted it to be any smaller though.

[@rpark8265]

Just thinking he same thing 🤣

[@jerseyproductions7127]

There actually 180 hp roughly which is more than enough for a Tedder that size. If you have a look it’s the exact same tractor baling as well

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

I think it’s the smallest they have 😂

[@kevinsheehan4565]

The grassmen will love this video 🤣

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

😂👌

[@paulcoxon2134]

Guinea ferrets running around

[@brendanperry9871]

Hi just wondering what chemical you used to kill off the grass cheers Brendan

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Just roundup (glyphosate)

[@brendanperry9871]

Cheers

[@alastairduncan1944]

So I just realized if you guys have been using finch for years, chances are when I worked at hill labs I registered and prepped your samples 🤔🤣 worked in ag sample reception for about 8years

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Probably close to 30 years I guess, you definitely would have on some of the maize we have brought in the past 👌👍

[@jascollinscork]

Great video!! I see your going for quality over quantity??

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

😂 definitely 👍

[@jascollinscork]

@@TheOnceADayFarmer will you have video on planting the maize.... that would be nice 🤔😁

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

@@jascollinscork yep sure will, although it will be a couple of weeks away.

Just on a side topic, Boy the vet putting your calves to sleep get peoples attention AYE ! LOL !

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Yeah unreal aye! Can’t believe so many people thought it was cruel too, best and less stressful way to do it 😳🤷

[@paulcoxon2134]

Have you got plenty of rabbits running around ferrets do the job

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Got a few rabbits, we have viruses that come through and kill which keeps the numbers low
