Morning Dave ,good to see you getting some bales done

Thanks Patrick.

I can see where net wrap would hold the leaves in better than twine.. but im still not sold on netwrap. It has it's issues.. so does twine.
Getting it done!!!
BTW, be careful, because she is actually aiming for you..

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

When you hear that last click you always want to look to see where the thrower is aiming😳.

Drying alfalfa was always a challenge.
Finally getting a break from rain.
In fact I wish I would get a inch now.
Thank you Dave.

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

I’m afraid we lost a lot of leaves on that last field.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Good morning Dawn and Dave ☕☕☕

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

Morning Ed.

[@HumbleHaymakers]

Looks good, that’s some nice hay. What model New Holland round baler are you running?

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@HumbleHaymakers thanks. RB 450. 2015 silage special model with 5000 bales through it.

[@piperdoug428]

The great thing about grass hay is you can ted it but alfalfa doesnt like that

[@Rollinghillsfarmsmn]

@@piperdoug428 no it does not but we don’t have much choice living this close to Lake Superior’s fog and cool temps.

Awesome video as always
Back when we still farmed in Switzerland our hay tedder had a special gearing that would allow to make small windrows (a 4 star would make two) called night swaths and that helped to dry out parts of the field faster then one tedded it again after the dew was off. I think Kuhn has that option on theirs. Nice that your neighbor came out to help ya get some of the baling done.

@@goatfarmmb thanks. Interesting.
