- Very likely the last baling day of 2023 is upon us! We spent some time staging what we think is probably the coolest drone video we have ever filmed. Enjoy and thank you for the support.
It’s the smell that’s the best thing about hay making.
I completely agree!
We used to live in southern Wisconsin in dairy country. We had a small place with four horses and grew hay on about three acres. Our neighbor would mow, rake, and bale two cuttings a season, three in a good year. We’d get approximately 500 bales out of the three cuttings and we had to sand stack all of them. We sold the place and moved to south Kentucky and now we watch our neighbor bale his hay while I sit on the porch with a cup of coffee. They always get three nice cuttings here compared to Wisconsin! I do t miss it at all. Have fun!
MY MAN CARL, THE LEGEND. Exactly the kind of worker every farm/business needs. Quiet, competent, looking to work not talk all day.
Oh, trust me, Carl could talk the legs off a chair haha but he is no slacker. The world needs a lot more guys like him
Please Keep The Videos Coming! We LOVE YOU GUYS. It always makes my day when I can open up CZcams and you've posted a new video! Love it! Thanks for the ride! Be Blessed
Thank you for the support!
One of your best videos yet. Loved the 6 balers side by side.
Thank you sir!
20 knotters in the same drone footage. Pretty cool!
A lot of twine too!
I added the approximate cost of all that equipment in that hay field and I ran out of zeros! Massive operation! Very impressive! Thanks
Thank you! It’s our passion
Looking at these machines at work shows that technology is developing strongly
Yes!
My cows loved watching this video.
Haha that’s awesome
Fella You sure a Whole lot of Tractors
Always love to see your work video’s
Thank you!!
I Love my Mini 2 Drone almost as much as my wife
Hahah drones are so fun
Truly impressive.
Thank you!
In the mid 1950 s i ran a new holland super 77 pto driven baler with a Farmall 400 diesel tractor . Did quite a bit of custom baling , 1500 acre corn and bean farm . Boss said " in your spare time ,cut that 70 acre alfalfa field and put in the old dairy barn " SPARE TIME ????? !!!
Excellent video, really enjoyed it
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was down in Medina a few Months ago looking at some Freightliners Dump Trucks, we couldn’t make the deal we needed to. We was able to Make a Deal with a Mennonite Amish Man over off 18 south east of Findley. We used to Build AutoZones all over Ohio a few Years ago we called it good traveling all over, the last Store we Built was in Nashville, Tennessee. I kinda of miss it but my Son has Taken Over, I retired from Both The Fire Department after 23 Fast Years and then the Construction Company I started 32 years ago. I had my First Grandchild so my life is geared for them now at Three Now Two Girls and one Boy they are all three Great Kids.
Nice video and it’s good to see the JCB’s at work.
Thank you!
Thing’s always work good when people can work together as a team and it seems that you all have good equipment to do the job
You’re very right sir
This is some thing that I’ve alway enjoyed doing farm digging potatoes grain harvest hauling the hay stacking it hard work but you go home take a shower and you well sleep GOOD
The logistics and organizing it takes to run a crew like this! Awesome
Thank you for the kind words!
The automation and robotics trend is impacting agriculture machines, leading to more efficient and autonomous farming practices.
Exactly!
Very cool 🎉
Thank you!
Good video.
Thank you sir!
Awesome video!!!! Definitely my favorite 👍
Thank you!
A lot of hay raised in eastern
Idaho high protein hay. Watching from idaho
Idaho makes some lovely hay
Beer thirty. Is the best part. Or Ice cold beer coming right Up. Later.
Haha that’s right!
Definitely to much fun goin down in one clip.. haha 😂😂 only jokin. Along with thats alot of team work, going on for sure, and the amount of knowledge and experience's all in one pic. Really nice man. Butta your about out of hay 🤑🤑😒.....
Thank you!
The hay is going pretty fast 💨
The satisfaction of finishing!
Excellent setup
Thank you!
Fabulous videoslove your setup..inline balers i look adter balers and service them in the uk ..my sjn lives in North Carolina im over there in 3 weeks landing at JFK and driving down to NC ..have a great season folks
I love farming videos.😊
This is so much more fun than the corn and soybean channels. Carl rocks!
He does rock. Thank you!
We used to do that back in the early 60's with 3 balers, all with 6 bale stookers on the back, 2 self propelled swathers and me driving the rake over most of Halton County, Ontario for Hays Farms International. Old Tommy Hays would cut, rake, bale, and put in the barn on a 1/3 for 2/3 share of crop. I covered a lot of great agricultural land which has now been scooped up for housing developments. Makes me sick to my stomach to see all that great farm land go to houses, We had a crew of about 25 guys for the summer and we worked.
The shots of the six balers was excellent. At the rate you're selling hay, you guys will probably be sold out in no time.
It’s going too fast!
Keeping it real
Yes sir!
I live north of Flint, Michigan in Clio. But I will tell you I Sure Love Ohio, From Maumee, Canton, Mt. Orab, Vevay, Cincinnati, West Chester, Wooster, Middletown, Hamilton, Chillicothe, every single one was a AutoZone. A lot of Work and a Lot of Time in Ohio, I Guess that’s why I love Ohio so much because if you form an Opinion while on Driving on I-75 Through Ohio then you would probably say it’s not for Me, but when you get off the Highway into the back Roads of Ohio then it’s a Beautiful Place. About the only time I don’t like Ohio is when The Wolverines Plays The Buckeyes in Football. A few days before and after we don’t drive through Ohio because your liable to get pulled over. Lolll no just kidding
You’ve seen some great parts of our state
Now farming becomes easier with these machines
Definitely easier than a couple decades ago
Very impressive
Thank you!
I really liked this video be safe
Thank you!
Very cool
Super 😊😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Bom dia a todos tudo bom❤
Doing great!
☆warning adjust volume down at 7minutes and then back up to hear him talk 10 seconds later☆
I bet that Onelonelyfarmer is glad someone else is dealing with small square bales.
another great video. Thanks. So you can get hay to dry this late in the season?
Thank you!
We sure try. We tedded this I think 4 times
Nice shirts!
They are pretty nice 👍
Yall should get a Massey Ferguson swing max hay baller
We have looked at the swing maxes. They are awesome. Really really pricey, but awesome
@FarmingInsider it also cuts down on the amount of tractors in field and fuel use
Whoo
Have I missed something somewhere ? How’s the progress on your new building. I hope you can use it this year. That’s impressive as is all those tractors and other equipment you have. The people are the ones that make it all possible though. Great team effort ! Where in Alabama was that shipment going ? Just curious. Thanks for the video.
The people make it happen! I was in the new barn a little bit at the end
Another great video! Is the new shed open and available for storage yet?
Oh yes, it’s stuffed to the brim. I was in it at the tail end of the video
Hey friend, I am writing to you from Turkey. What is the name of the plant you make honey from?
Timothy/orcharsgrass
Massey Türkiye'de sevilir
Ever heard of ilhardt from southern Ohio? We make around 60 k a year.
Yes, I know they are highly regarded around the Cincinnati market if I’m not mistaken
What model is the new Massey S on the baron?
It is a 7s 165
@@FarmingInsider 👍 we have a 7s180
Curious how big that field was
Where are you guys located please.
General area. I am north of Pensacola about 15 miles.
Cantonment
we are in Medina county
The dust from manually stacking bales in a barn on a hot summer day is terrible.
I am very glad that’s not the route we take
how much acre did you collect from ?
240 thousand bales? That's a small farm in Tennessee 😅.
Put the microphone closer to your mouth. Lol😊.I know you can't. But I hear you
It’s gotta be right up in there!
Carls funny
He’s hilarious
how do they unload the bales out of that trailer ????
By hand or with a telehandler like the one they use to fill the trailer with
So what happens when emissions pollute the living environment?
Who knows? Ask airplanes and everything with an engine
He had to show a beer right smh
There’s no beer. It’s a diet pop
Are u hiring for a farmworkers let me know
Where are you from?
@@FarmingInsider I am from McAllen tx
Bitkinin adı nedir Türkiye'den sizi takip etmeye başladım dostum
This is Timothy/orchardgrass. It’s a nice cool season grass
Man, with the size of this of this operation it’s about time to invest in KRONE or CLAAS because you guys are losing so much time and quality. The crop you guys are processing is amazing, drop dead gorgeous honestly, but I can’t even imagine taking on this kind of work with that equipment.
You’ll be 30% faster with better quality bales just going with a 2015 Krone let alone the new models.
What equipment are you referring to?
@@FarmingInsider the balers.
For small squares, the Massey inlines are pretty highly regarded
@@FarmingInsider well not over here and we’re a dairy country. The dairy country in the world actually.
What small square balers do the dairy guys prefer?
Throw the microphone in the woods. It's a foolish prop.
Haha I’m just having some fun. Did you find it annoying?
@@FarmingInsider probably not as much as the folks holding it. 😄 I love the videos though. Great job.
@@FarmingInsiderWhere are you guys located?
Too much talking not enough bailing
