Trying to beat the rain & get first cutting alfalfa baled | Day in the life of a 27 year old farmer

Come along for a day in the life of a 27 year old female farmer farming alongside my parents & husband. There's never a dull moment each and every single day. We are racing the rain to try and get our first cutting of alfalfa up and baled for the year. We're struggling with rain this summer so far... will we make it?

You are doing a great job as a very intelligent young lady.❤❤❤

[@donrock6800]

Another beautiful video Andrea ❤

[@thatfitagvocate]

Thank you so much!

[@Dennismelnychuk]

I bale anything under 25% but I put an inoculant that prohibits mold in or wrap them depending on how far from home they are.

[@thatfitagvocate]

We had that discussion too. Dad said if we would have had it

[@thomasmccarthy3665]

Just wondering what the option was if it rained, we wrap in plastic it becomes hayladge but maybe different with alfalfa, always a relief to get it done good work, drawing bales here too best wishes

[@thatfitagvocate]

If we had the equipment, we would have maybe gone for it. Just hasn’t been a thing for us!

[@garyfreeman6106]

Nothin wrong with agco tractors 😂 that’s all we run

[@thatfitagvocate]

Dad’s been toying with the idea of something different 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@thomasforst7327]

Hi Andrea awesome video we have trouble two with our baler have a wonderful wonderful weekend your biggest fan always Tom forst

[@thatfitagvocate]

Thanks for watching Tom!

[@garyfreeman6106]

Next time silage bale alfalfa wrap it now that you have the nde mixer throw the bale right in the mixer

[@thatfitagvocate]

We don’t have the stuff to do that. It’s been a discussion but currently not on the radar for us

[@Linda-zo3vs]

When my kids were young, we use to walk along the road and pick ditch asparagus

[@thatfitagvocate]

It’s the good stuff!!

[@taggunter975]

Nothing like having fun hahaha

[@thatfitagvocate]

All day every day

[@denisesells8667]

Ditch asparagus! Never heard it called that but I saw a neighbor who used to collect it that way! Wish I could find some! God bless your life’s journey!

[@thatfitagvocate]

It’s the best! So much flavor!!

[@garycoxjr.4668]

Enjoyed the video glad you all got your hay put up in time thank goodness for that John Deere baler 😂😂😂 just kidding I bet your dad won’t like that comment. Can’t wait till the next one.

[@thatfitagvocate]

😂😂😂😂

[@brianabramson5313]

Didn't Dad get hives when he found out the customer operator uses a John Deere baler? Green equipment on HIS land??

[@brianabramson5313]

...custom operator...

[@thatfitagvocate]

😂😂😂 “it’s just a baler.” That’s his words haha

[@Dennismelnychuk]

I kinda like them orange tractors but not the green or yellow balers, maybe in 25 years I'll be able to afford one of them 2024 tractors lol

[@thatfitagvocate]

😂😂 same

[@jaybernieschoep]

[@thatfitagvocate]
