    Oh how farming has changed! 1952 my father was hired away from being farm manager at a boarding high school (Lodi Academy) to manage 250 acre Delta operation (Tracy CA) - I was 8 years old - became his right hand man - grew lots of alfa hay - many hours on 1950,John Deere A - sickle bar to cut - quickly rake into wind rows - then night time baling (many night hearing sound of baler - must have some moisture
    from due) - then load wired bales on wagon to barn - very many man hours

      I never knew that Lodi Academy had farm land? I was raised in Lodi but I wasn't born I until 1962 so it was just a few years after the time you're referring to. But that's interesting to know about the farm land you learn something your whole life. Thank You!

    Excellent video. Hay & Forage is my favorite. I love those triple/butterfly mowers, mergers are always cool, and who doesn't like to see a big forage harvester in action? But I must confess that I find packing boring. I've done plenty, and never really loved it.
    I thought the 7780s were all 600+hp machines. I still think the 7050/7080 series are better looking than the new 8000/9000 series. Of course, looks alone aren't much...
    Shout out to harvester operators everywhere when he slowed down for that massive clump to feed in -- I thought I was going to completely choke our NH FP240 doing that in uneven windrows this spring but thankfully it fed on thru, courtesy 300hp! Smooth windrows are always nice.
    Big Tractor Power, see if you can rustle up some footage of the Pottinger Novacat T8 trailed center-pivot triple mower. The dealer I spoke with about a used T8 (O'Hara) said he had 3 of them on one farm there in NY!!

    • @charliewhitney3494

      Yes you make hay when the sun shines. Feeding a lot of cows some dairy farms run every single day from sunup clear in the dark you get enough haylage into the bunk the feed all those cows through the winter there are only so many days in a growing season and there are a lot of tons of feed to put in. You rarely waste a day or skip a day that means your birthday your kids birthday your significant other's birthday even a lot of holidays are spent putting feed in the bunk for the cows.

    Seeing that merger in action is interesting, looking in from Europe where the different climate means alfalfa is only grown in a few places & the norm is grass silage. I’m thinking that a 250hp machine to rake in 30ft of crop is overkill. The norm here is a tractor & rake. A standard rake is 30ft & the bigger operators are now on 50ft rakes.
