I read the comments and I am surprised!!! Although it is true that many people have no idea how many things in this life are produced. They just go to the store and buy!!! Many have not even seen cows!!!At one time I worked in construction in agriculture. We have increasingly large agricultural holdings, although there are enough farmers too.Great video!!! Greetings from Russia ✌️
Put a bungee cord on the shifter,I love the 5k tractor pulling the 30k baler,100hp is low end for that baler with a full bale but its doing a good job,pretty windrows makes pretty bales,what was you moisture content running?
Nice... how do you like that 467 baler? That a 4 foot wide bale, how tall you make them?? We're making 5 x 5 or 5 x 5.5 foot bales for the most part, but we've got an old Ford 552 baler, built by Gehl same as a 1400 model Gehl. Grandpa bought it new in the early 80's, first round baler in our part of the country basically. We still run it because we're only doing hay for our own cows, but she's long in the tooth and since Gehl quit the ag business, parts are getting hard to find eventually she'll have to be replaced and I've looked long and hard at the Deere balers. They seem pretty solid and pretty popular around here, probably outnumber everything else to be sure. I've had good experience with Deere equipment, far better than Case/IH and not a fan of NH since they buyout of Ford and particularly since the merger with Case/IH and now the whole mess is owned by Fiat (Fix It Again Tomorrow LOL:) We got screwed by Case IH when they quit providing parts support for their cotton pickers years ago, we junked them and replaced them with Deere-- at least Deere backs up their machines with parts. A manufacturer that won't provide parts support is basically giving the middle finger to the customer, so WHY would I ever want to buy their junk?? Just a matter of time before some $1.98 part breaks that you cannot get but machine won't run without, and NOBODY in the world has one left, and you end up with scrap iron or a yard ornament... No time for that crap! Looks like some good hay, wish I had about 30 rolls of that stuff myself! Later! OL J R :)
@@lukestrawwalker this is the second John Deere baler this size that we have had and we’ve been well pleased with it. The local dealer is good to work with. This baler has the mesh wrap as you can see, it has the twine too but we leave the hay out and the mesh does a really good job of keeping the hay. The mesh we use is called “over the edge” and makes a nice clean bale. The baler makes a tight bale too. It bales a 4 foot wide bale and we keep them down to 5 feet tall. Easy to handle and haul, and there not as likely to flop over.
@@AppalachianRust thanks. Pretty heavy bales I suppose? I know the newer bakers make rock hard bales compared to the old balers like mine, but can be set softer which is all I need, don't need rock hard baked heavier than concrete lol. Looks real good!!
Hello James excellent video it looks like you were a little hot in that old girl enjoyed the ride and the information now I know how that is done thank you ken
That's some beautiful country. I help out my neighbors who have a dairy farm when they need it, mostly mowing, and I enjoy the heck out of it.
Good job operating the tractor be safe on the job and road
Great video. I always wondered how the bales got into the field. Thanks for the video. Great filming.
My allergies started to flar up just but watching this video
Thanks for the baling video. :)

This is just like Farming Simulator 25, except more realistic.
Love your videos man, curious about the pontoon boat... why not drag it out of the field so you don't have to work around it..??
@@LowCountryEarthworks it’s not mine and it just takes a second to go around it.
I hope they move it though.

@@solocamq32 I don’t know what the moisture content was. It dried out so quick it was nearly bone dry
Does mean when bales are done that cool white mack will be hauling 😊😊lol lol
@@MarkGrant-ew3wk sure will be 👍
