    Your a big operation but you don't act like one. Nice to see you clean up around the rock and the little slice that was missed. Taking pride in everything you do!! Big operators by me wouldn't waste the time that's just not right. Nice job Jr. and Andy

    Your video was a nice peaceful way to wind down the day. I always enjoyed mowing hay. Enjoyed the smell of fresh cut alfalfa. The only bummer was if I ran into a cat, rabbit, pheasant, or some animal hidden in the hay. Not a good outcome for them.

  • @28081481
    @28081481 3 роки тому

    Another great video thank you Andy. Sorry to hear you’re going into a drought there. We just came out of a three year drought here where we are in Australia. A lot of other places had on average a seven year one. For us we usually get around 60 inches of rain annually. Last year we got 8 inches total. Was the worst in living memory. Alfalfa (they call it lucurne here) was the only thing that pulled us through for feed.

  • @rodneyerdmann1545
    @rodneyerdmann1545 3 роки тому

    I'm impressed with how fast you seem to go! I would hate to think how long it would take to mow that hay with a WD 45 Allis pulling a 10 ft Haybine! That's what I used the last time I mowed hay for my Uncle about 47 yrs. ago!

  • @colincostine9775
    @colincostine9775 3 роки тому

    Over here in Cow Hampsha those skips are called "holidays" In order to be a safe mower you have to leave one close to the road so that as the mowing inspectors drive by o check on you they can see your error at a glance instead of having to really crane their necks and maybe get into a wreck. Mow safely!!

    We run a set of agco mowers with the tine conditioners, we have it on a 220hp tractor but 180hp would run it fine. The front doesn't follow the contours like those pottingers do though.

    @grassfeeding6073 3 роки тому

    What kind of ground speed can you run with the pottinger triple? Curious how it compares in terms of acres/hour to a self propelled. I like the ride in a good self propelled swather, always heard it was hard to run as fast in a triple mower setup, but would love your thoughts. Looks like you're moving along pretty good!

  • @watomb
    @watomb 3 роки тому

    Seems like you are running really fast nice. You don’t normally post about spraying or fertilizer. The corn seems a little short did you do soil samples or plant samples? Guessing it’s cost because you chop it up. Anyways great video

  • @elephantcompany6061
    @elephantcompany6061 3 роки тому

    Will you make silage with this? How long will it sit in the windrow before the chopper comes along.?
    Or maybe it's for hay bales?
    We always swathed right infront of the chopper. We found if it was left to dry, it became difficult to pack in the silage pit.
