You can call it what it is, a tedder. My wife and I call it a tenderizer. However we are now going to change that to Timmerizer, as Tim is the one running it... Keep up the fantastic videos, and THANK YOU for feeding all of us in one way or another. BACON.
Try the permathrin no ticks or mosquitos. You can buy the concentrate at most farm supply stores or Amazon. The package has dilution rates and you can treat your clothes, tents, or around your house.
Keep doing these field comparison videos through out the year. There is nothing like video evidence to prove a point that the correct amount & type of fertilizer is profitable versus too little or too much
KCautodoctor Couldn't agree more. It makes for some good educational material. We usually don't fertilizer our hay ground, it's usually a cover crop that gets thrown in with the fertilizer for the wheat in the spring. Usually we don't keep the fields in hay for too long.
just doing a little math which I am bad at. 3.5 tons to the acre plus another 1.5 tons second cut times 5,000 approximate acres equals 25,000 tones. you can haul 32 tones a load equals 780 loads. that is 2 trucks running 1 load a day at least. maybe Tim as a second driver?
Hope Life is Good. Since i been watching. Seems like the you and the family are working hard like usual. Hope you are having fun also. Teresa is a Good gal.
I don't think anyone doubts the effectiveness of fertilizer, its finding that sweet spot that is tricky. If you did 25% less fertilizer to the acre, you might only get 10% less yield. Or you may get 20% less. You got to weigh out your options and prices
what is field rent in that area?? just a general idea.I was just thinking 100 rent+ 100 in fertilizer+equipment and fuel.The margins are looking thin but maybe thats me.
If you ever decide to trade in your Case swather you should look into a challenger WR9860 and see how you like that model machine they are very nice. Great videos
The Challenger WR9860 is the same windrower as a Massey Ferguson WR9860 www.masseyferguson.us/products/hay-and-forage/wr9800-series-windrowers-swathers.html
Hi West I live 20 minutes from where you purchase you tractors at Sharmans at Grantham you say your running the pto on a 540 shaft on economy, why don't you select 1000 still with the 540 shaft and drop the revs even more I think about 1200 will still give you 540 at the shaft
Hello , We have primarily grown Timothy/ Clover, now starting to try some other grasses Orchard and Meadow /Tall Fescue this year .We use fertilizer manure and lime do regular soil tests. Do you find there quite a difference on crop yield by leaving more stubble on all grasses or just with the Orchard ?
Someone enlighten me please. I believe I'm right that the 'regrowth' doesn't do well at all under the windrow. Would it be better for regrowth production if Wes went immediately through the field after the mowing and spread out the windrows? It just seems that the grass under the windrow cut off from the sun would almost remain dormant until the cut grass is taken away. Hope that made sense.
jbmbanter Yep because he had rain comin the day he mowed it he left it in windrows for the rain to run off and the wind to get up into the row. Wes rolled the dice a bit with this 1st cut, to much rain and he would have lost the crop, but because it is mulch hay he has a bit more wiggle room with moisture and the hay decomposing.
Thanks Michael. I am learning some of the ins and outs of hay through Wes and Travis Kuster in The Rest of the Story. I also like Ryan's videos and explanations from How Farms Work. It's great to see two young farmers doing well and of course it doesn't hurt to have Dwight/Dad to help. :)
just watched the 7410 video with the tank and that can be repaired.. if you have a plastic fabricator near you they should be able to wield that hole up.. we repair them tanks all the time with a hot air jet gun. PE-HD is easy to repair.. might be worth looking into it..... js wes......
I am only speaking for myself. I grew up on a farm. i know what fertilizer does. I am more interested in seeing the 8530 on the baler. Your first impressions of using the 8530 on the baler. What features on the 8530 are better while baling. What features do u miss on the 8530 that the other tractor has, if any. Details about the difference between the 2 tractors and ultimately, was upgrading to the 8530 worth it. Thank You ! and have a good day.
Roma P. Belgium, west-europ : don't know the price for ammonium nitrate in bags , but the price for delivery in bulk is 249€/1000kg . Converted : 12.5€/50kg or 14$/50kg
PTO shaft bent? Are you talking about the accident last year with the wood piece? That shaft bent because of the machine jamming during full operation. It was repaired and the baler continued it's fine operation. Is there another bent shaft you know of? Perhaps you are psychic or a time traveler. Better let Wes know so he can be prepared!
I always felt it should be RsPM, but nobody seems to care. Same as in baseball. It should be RsBI rather than RBIs! I wish life wasn't so complicated !

we fertilize our hay fields too. neighbor's around don't. huge difference. can farm half as many hay acres as them and run more corn and bean acres
Wes you're videos are super mighty better than agricultural college you are the best by a long mile thank you + family

Kills fish and cats though so be aware
that 7530 looks a smart big tractor thanks for the video wes
Great information! thanks for sharing #allnatural #fertilizer
Hay is looking great Wes... Fetilzer really pays off on the grasses

Maybe the fertilizer company can use this video to sell product. :)
CAN'T wait for the bailing and collecting videos

Can you fix that patch of unfertilized field for your 2nd cut?

my weather is as crazy as yours. could have mowed, called for lots of rain, got a drop.

we use chicken litter on the fields also, lots of nitrogen! quick to get results.
Do you think this time of year (in Ohio) is too late to over seed hay fields with "warm season" grass?
I wonder,now that Tim has used the 7530 does he still want to keep the 4960?
FARMinLATVIA I believe the 4960 is being kept anyways
well i wont belive it if i dont see it!
nice 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😎😎🌽
Hello from Minnesota!
I love how you’ve mentioned Twilight (a.k.a Edward Cullen)
The "Twatlight" comment was hilarious. If I heard correctly. ;)
what are you using for Fertilizer?

nice tractor Wes...
Makes fun of twilight but knows the main character's name ;) rofl
My daughter was a big fan smartass. So o would watch the movies with her. Did I like them not really but I watched them so of coarse I knew his name.
@@onelonleyfarmer So was my daughter, but I still didn't know his name LOL Relax, I'm just giving you hell....
@@stoamnyfarms I was thinking the same thing lol
Did you figure out what was going on with the case?

$250 and she is back in the field.

By the way. Yes I am an impatient person sometimes.
how's the tedder holding up I run a class
In my region (in Russsia) one bag (50 kilo) of ammonium nitrate costs 800 rubles ( about 14 dollars). How much fertilizers cost in USA?

really?! holy shit! its way too expensive, although european farmers make more money that us
@@romap.8521 Oh the good old days.
Little did you know the pto shaft would be bent on the baler 😂😂

you can yammer on, what do you think we watch for? 🙂🤣🙂
dejanira2 Most of us like the talking best
That is what I said. 🙂
Exactly, that's how we learn.
dejanira2 Yeah I'm backing up what you said, his talking and talking on a variety of subjects is really great
Think its time fore a story time with one lonly farmer somme day soon
your hay looks good
7530 is beatifull
hello from norway
Hello!
It looks like u picked a good year to buy those tractors Wes should be able to pay them off and maybe get a new f150 for yourself God knows u need it
Nah, all he needs is a new steering wheel.
give a claas tedder a try.
why do have to use a big tractor to ted the hay my 8n ford would do that
An 8N wouldn't power that tedder. It calls for 45HP minimum on the PTO. Plus that tedder weighs as much as an 8N.

hi
hay will soon look like dry manure
i hope so
Ninth! :-)
RPMs? RPM. No S.
I always felt it should be RsPM, but nobody seems to care. Same as in baseball. It should be RsBI rather than RBIs! I wish life wasn't so complicated !
