When I was a kid mowed with a sickle bar behind a Farmall H, crimped with Cunningham crimper pulled with IH 340 diesel, raked with Oliver side delivery rake with same 340, pulled IH45 small square baler with Farmall SMDTA; later upgraded to NH balers with IH 656 hydro diesel pulling PT-10 haybine & same tractor pulling NH small square balers. Loved SMDTA roading wagons up steep hills with flame blowing out muffler at night. Sure miss everything about those days, wished we had ability to take pics back then
Probably handled a million of those bales...Our farm name was ‘haymaker farm’ and that’s all we did all summer long. In the later years mostly used a John Deere 336 baler pulled by a John Deere 3020....all hand stacked...Earlier years ran a jd 630 on a 24t baler. Started out with a side mount sickle mower towing a conditioner and ended up with a nice jd haybine. Those were the days!
Sounds a lot like my childhood in the 80s and 90s. We had all JD equipment. 6300, 2155 and 2040 tractors pulling 338 and 348 balers, 1600 moco and a pair of 1209s. I'm sure I never handled a million bales, but a couple hundred thousand, sure.
Allis-Chalmers will always be one of my favorites, they are what I grew up with. Still have a 190xt diesel that I love to hear and drive, bring back nostalgia of driving in the fields as a young boy barely able to reach the pedals 😄
I grew up on these old tractors. First tractor I ever bought was a 48 8N. Now we only run big Deeere tractors and Fendt. I'm in my early 30s but I still have a soft spot for those old tractors in my heart. I still have my grandpa's two old 4020s. Both have canopy ROPS and one has a loader. I could watch this all day. We in the dairy business and it's amazing how tractors and hay equipment has changed. Now we mow with a Krone Big M. Keep up the good work.
Love the older equipment and hay making of the era when I was a teenager growing up on a farm in northern Ky. Dad ran mostly Case and New Holland equipment. The owner could actually work on and repair this era equipment without having to deal with all the possible issues today's computerized equipment present.
Love the 185. That’s what we use to mow with a 472 or 478 New Holland haybine. The 1850 is major overkill on that tedder. We use a 64 Ford 4000 for tedding and raking with a 256 New Holland. I don’t care much for the wheel rakes as he was raking as much dirt as hay. I love the videos of the classics. Keep up the good work.
Looking at these beautiful crops ,America is a very blessed country, here in Australia 90% looks like the surface of Mars and a lot of areas are running out of drinking water and we have terrible bush fires ,hope for a good 2020 👍
Great video! My grandfather bought his Allis Chalmers 185 brand new. He put a year round cab, and duals on it. He used it to feed his hogs and do his tillage. I am glad you found one to film. They are one of my favorite tractors.
Great video I spent a lot of time cutting hay on the same setup Allis 185 and new Holland 499 in the 1990s when we were dairy farming sure miss those days.
The various tractors and implements used was interesting, but the star of the show was the beautiful barn in the background towards the end. What a behemoth!
That barn is actually a new construction. It is a conference center with a big hall for annual meetings and chamber of commerce events. It is called the Silo Event Center in Hopkinsville, KY.
Great video. My father and I started a small hay business after I got back from college, I bought a jd4020 was the biggest tractor on my grandfather's 30 cow farm. I work for a large farm also and run 100 to 600 hp tractors everyday but still prefer my 4020.
I like the 185 Allis Chalmers and the 499 NH Haybine my Father Carl nearly bought a NH 499 12 ft Haybine he needed a 40x80 tractor shed for his farm equipment he currently has a NH 492 9 ft Haybine
My dad used to have an old NH 499 haybine he pulled behind his MF 399 then baled with a NH 650 twine tie. I used to sit behind the seat and just be hypnotized by the reel bars. We have a MF 6180 and a NH RB460 now and he definitely thinks he’s gone to heaven running it. Back in the day he worked full time as a welder and when he got off at night he’d go to the hay field and do it all again the next day. He would haul 10k small squares a day with a couple other guys and always had a day job. I have some health issues but I don’t think I could handle what he did in my best shape. I have to have some sleep.
I mowed with a sickle mower raked with ground driven new idea hay rake. I know old school stuff but, I was born in 1956 so none of this was not available when I was growing up. It is still enjoyable to watch.
I had a neighbor in the late 70’s and early 80’s. that used an IH haybine and an IH pitman sickle bar mower. They normally cut the out side rounds and a quarter of the field with the sickle and then the rest with the haybine. I always wondered if they wanted a different kind of bale from the non conditioned alfalfa.
Nice to see something different. We see mostly Case IH, John Deere, and New Holland these days in rice country. Nothing like the 70's, 80's, and early 90's tractors in my opinion.
Great classic hay vid👍we have TM125 pull 12ft NH conditioner, next windrow with 8 tine rake been tow by IH 574, IH 574 pull very old IH small square baler, last piece equipment is IH elevator that hooks to side of International AA160 truck with two people on back grabbing n stacking hay bales. But our family hasn’t done small bales since 16 years ago, this year was all round bales done by MF tractor/baler then loaded onto TLiner International semi that holds 30 bales. Our McCormick MC130 doing loading/unloading of round bales.
You really need to come to Kansas during haying. Hardly anyone bales small squares anymore, it's all large rounds. We also don't run Tedders we rake 2 or more windrows into 1. On our farm we stacked loose hay until 1986 and still have 95% of the equipment to still do it
I know an old Farmer that has an open station Massey 165 and a Ford 5000 tractor, has used the same New Holland 488 (or maybe it's a 479). For about as long as I've been alive (40 years). All his equipment is old but runs every summer. International bar rake, Massey 124 square baler as well as on old New Holland 273 baler for backup.
A Ford 7700 runs my 648 new Holland round baler 930 case runs my 411 discbine farm all 400 pulls hay rakes. Owned 400 for over 40years also have a G allison I've had for 50years. You've been knocking it out of the park with the vids thanks for all the effort
VINTAGE TRACTORS!!!??? WTH? There’s no way I’m that old!! I grew up with an Allis Charmers -WD, WD-45, 170, 185. I never cared for Tedder’s, they knock all the leaves off.
I agree. I love hay season. In Indiana, I did all the hay for two farmers. One farm alone was 10k acres of hay. I would no sooner get one farm done and it was time to do the next farm. Since I was a kid on the farm, I have loved hay season. For me, I find the smell of fresh cut hay to be intoxicating.
This brings back memories, only we didn't use as many high horsepower tractors. The hay was mowed with an A John Deere with a #8 sickle bar mower, raked with JD rakes that had big steel wheels into a window, and bailed with a JD 4010 pulling a 214W baler connected to a low boy with another man with a hay hook pulling the bales out, and stacking them. As loads were made, another JD or Ihc would take the loads in to be stacked in the hay mow in the barn.
Love these classic tractor videos makes me can’t wait summer to cut hay with our 3010 and John Deere haybine rake hay with that same tractor and a small rake and then bale with an international baler
Grew up on a dairy farm made hay every summer we never tedded used a super m and new Holland mower conditioner and a JD side rake then a case 500 and new Holland baler for small squares
The Allis is a sweet running machine. We live in southern Indiana and used a IH 966 with a Heston 1010 hydro swing 9’cut, making hay was fun as a teenager, miss those days.
This video was great reminded me of doing hay at my family farm 3 30 acre fields. My uncle had a ford 5000 and a an international 586 then we pulled the hay wagon with a farmal f20 we would also use a john deere b. Its wierd to me cause everything on farms when I was a kid was old. Now farmers have expendable equipment it seems to me. Even the farmers i knew had 60s or 70s trucks and I grew up in the 90s maybe its was just the farmers I knew
@@bigtractorpower I love that tractor it's been in the family since new. It has the steele wheel on it now but it also has rubber wheels for the back 2 but steel front wheel. But about 8 years ago the head cracked and my uncle will not let me mess with it. The john deer b was a 40s something and it still runs but the 586 and the 5000 are still used all the time just not for farming anymore my uncle is 78 and retired from gm he still farmed for 20 yrs after he retired now he is permanently retired. Thanks for the response I have a lot of different channels I'm subscribed to and farmer or tractor channels are the only channels who you can rely on are response back thank you
We never liked to use a hay tedder, I know sometimes it was necessary but it makes the crop lose a lot of leaves, especially in alfalfa...nice video Jason
The Tedder is helpful but it seems most like to avoid them if possible. Where I grew up they were very necessary because stringing a few sunny days together in May and early June to bale first cut where tough. Thank you for watching.
Back in the good old days when life wasn't such a ratrace like now folks worked MUCH harder but there wasn't all the stress like there is now with text Twitter Facebook and whatever and everyone is always in such a damn hurry now but they ain't going anywhere !!! Lol
I spent the Summer and Fall of '89 at a huge cattle ranch in Montana. They did make some small bales and had a stack cruiser but most of the alfalfa went into giant stacks the size of an elephant. When it came time to feed the cattle (5000 head) there was a machine that worked like a bread slicer on those big loaves.
That first tractor, the Allis -Chalmers is working in what looks like a field the size of Montana ! And that New Holland Stack Cruiser had to be the best thing ever invented, since sliced bread at the time ? Love the older iron, thanks BTP. Thumbs up always !
The guy on the white has that thing revved to hell when I rake with my 4320 I normally run in 6th gear at about 1300 rpms never paid attention to how fast I was going just making sure it’s picking it all up
@@74superglide Mr Oakley you are exactly right...lol.I still had a good time picking up bales with my friends,and we had a little money to spend at the local country store...good memories.
Was raised and taught to use an appropriate sized tractor for the job at hand, so many videos now seeing there's frequently way more tractor being used than is really needed
The price of tractirs have jumped so much in recent years many farms use a paid for tractor to do multiple jobs. They are also covering more acres so it is nice to have a more comfortable tractor to get the ground covered.
@@bigtractorpower when Dad & I, and then later after Dad retired, just me, whenever a piece of equipment or tractor was purchased it was paid for in full at time of purchase as was everything,, only debt carried was the mortgage on the farm itself,,, sad that so many, for whatever reason are so far in debt that grankids & great grankids will be the family that pays off the farm if it ever is
499,s are decent haybines we have one and my uncle has 1. But nowadays it seems they don't make 499 anymore which i guess it sucks sides we ain't able to find newer models of 499. But inerways thanks for sharing! .
Nice group of tractors. Not my favorite farm task though. I was usually stuck on the hay rack behind the bailer. None of those fancy automated contraptions on our farm :)
I just have to laugh. My Uncle and I picked up bales one at a time with a pitchfork and slung them onto a truck bed. Those alfalfa bales! OMG! Thanks for the video
May be classic still working great

I can't express how awesome it was in the beginning to see that old timer still hard at it in the field on his AC 185.
My great grandpa built oliver tractors when they first came into existence in southbend indiana. He worked for oliver over 30yrs.
Awesome history.
@@bigtractorpower i never knew my grandfather worked for oliver until my mom told me a couple days ago. I was surprised and proud of that.

@@bigtractorpower
The Krone is a very good machine. We love ours. We are in southwest Virginia. If u ever down this way let us know.

I want thay New Holland Stack Cruiser in FS19
I sure like that Allis. We had a 180, 185 and 200. Great tractors. I wish we still had the 185.

Oliver tractors was the thing in its day
They were good tractors.
Nice to see I'm not the only one who has to still use this "vintage" equipment.
Classics are my favorite to find. I like and respect the farm’s that keep these machines in the field.
Me too

VINTAGE TRACTORS!!!??? WTH? There’s no way I’m that old!!
I grew up with an Allis Charmers -WD, WD-45, 170, 185.
I never cared for Tedder’s, they knock all the leaves off.
And here I am complaining about the dust coming inside the cab when the door is open😂 respect to the old boys, you teach us young bucks well.

I do that too dust in a cab is way worse then dust in open station

Great line up. I wish I could capture haying like that on digital video.
Assuming the 214W was a twine and not wire baler?
Love these classic tractor videos makes me can’t wait summer to cut hay with our 3010 and John Deere haybine rake hay with that same tractor and a small rake and then bale with an international baler
Very cool set up. You don’t see IH balers too often anymore. What model do you run?
bigtractorpower don’t know haven’t looked at the model in years I’d have to look at it makes damn good bales all wire
You said it nothing beats the smell of fresh cut hay
Grew up on a dairy farm made hay every summer we never tedded used a super m and new Holland mower conditioner and a JD side rake then a case 500 and new Holland baler for small squares
Nice line up of tractors.
Always thought the New Holland balers made the squarest bales.
I like this video. Probably paid off and proud machinery.
Each of the owners of these tractors are loyal to their classic brands. They like to keep them out in the field.
Thanks for sharing! Great line up of tractors!
He is definitely one of the best things to do on a farm the smell of it I love it
😁👍👍
Spent a lot of summers on a wagon behind a baler stacking hay. No kickers or stackcruisers, just hand hay hooks.
So easy not like we use to do it. Thanks for the video.
I love the case tractors. My grand dad always had case. Great video. Thanks.
Cool equipment!
😎👍👍
I enjoy all of your videos. This is definitely one of my favorites.
The Allis is a sweet running machine. We live in southern Indiana and used a IH 966 with a Heston 1010 hydro swing 9’cut, making hay was fun as a teenager, miss those days.
Well it brought back a lot of memories

Oh yes, the smell of fresh cut hay, sweet smell of summer. Even mix in the faint smell of a dairy farm in the distance
Oh the second this video started I was grinning ear to ear! Thank you BTP from a super tractor nerd!
You started the new year off right. Love the classic tractors
You get a like from me based on the title. I love hay making and the old gear
😁👍👍. Thank you.
We never liked to use a hay tedder, I know sometimes it was necessary but it makes the crop lose a lot of leaves, especially in alfalfa...nice video Jason
The Tedder is helpful but it seems most like to avoid them if possible. Where I grew up they were very necessary because stringing a few sunny days together in May and early June to bale first cut where tough. Thank you for watching.
tooez90 . Exactly. It was sad to see so very many leaves becoming airborne.
I've got a very similar, if not identical, Kuhn tedder here in Scotland.....
Lower rpm would help reduce the losses, especially as the crop dries out.
Kuhn GF5001T
I usually bale but I think Mowing is the best/most fun part of the process
amazing that all the old tractors still have no ROPS fitted,,,, nice video....
Back in the good old days when life wasn't such a ratrace like now folks worked MUCH harder but there wasn't all the stress like there is now with text Twitter Facebook and whatever and everyone is always in such a damn hurry now but they ain't going anywhere !!! Lol
Gary Wendeln amen to that brother!
As always, I enjoyed this video. I grew up with open station tractors just like these. I also made hay just like that too, up here in Saskatchewan.
That looks a lot easier than bucking and stacking bales of hay. Guys in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s made money every summer doing just that.
New Holland made the 499 haybine for over 30 years. I grew up running a 1495. The self propelled version
Very cool. I always liked those 1495s. I sure would like to find one to film.
Awesome video Mike Awesome.👍👍👍
Thank you for watching.
@@bigtractorpower You are very welcome i love them all..
Great video!
starting off with an allis 185 great job old oliver minnie and case !!!!!
Love those old ALLIS CHALMERS
👍👍
A 94HP tractor for tedding? What a waste of fuel
Smallest tractor on the farm and the farmer likes his 1850. No need for a smaller tractor for just one job.
This is great
Thank you for watching.
I spent the Summer and Fall of '89 at a huge cattle ranch in Montana. They did make some small bales and had a stack cruiser but most of the alfalfa went into giant stacks the size of an elephant.
When it came time to feed the cattle (5000 head) there was a machine that worked like a bread slicer on those big loaves.
Sounds like they had a Hesston Stack Hand. This are neat machines.
@@bigtractorpower
Yup. That's the one. I never got to operate it. I did follow it with a stack mover to take them to the hay yard.
That first tractor, the Allis -Chalmers is working in what looks like a field the size of Montana ! And that New Holland Stack Cruiser had to be the best thing ever invented, since sliced bread at the time ? Love the older iron, thanks BTP. Thumbs up always !
Never seen that stack cruiser before that’s pretty neat how that works.
It can gather a bunch of bales in a hurry.
All the tractors are neat and classical but my favorite was the AC 185 with the haybine . Always thought the old allis chalmers were neat tractors .
It sure is a nice tractor.
Be neat to see an 856 international out mowing hay too ! The AC 185 is a dandy tractor too !
Like the video! I will be making some drone videos with John Deere equipment in the spring! Can't wait
Very cool. Drone views are awesome.
The guy on the white has that thing revved to hell when I rake with my 4320 I normally run in 6th gear at about 1300 rpms never paid attention to how fast I was going just making sure it’s picking it all up
Nice. Enjoyed seeing that 1850. I always thought it was a good tractor.
I like finding Olivers. It was neat to find a Fwa Oliver.
I like the Oliver 1850, that is a great tractor!
😁👍👍
Great video! I really enjoy seeing the old iron.
How many acres of hay does it require before the expense of owning such equipment becomes cost effective?
Can’t wait to get out and mow some hay with the 200 Allis
Love those Case tractors!
Sure do wish Dad would have had a stack cruiser when I was growing up.
They can move a bunch of bales.

Amazing farming video
Thank you for watching.
Happy new year from africa
Certainly seemed dry at the phase of tedding
Oh no, they have to stop because of a bad computer sensor. NOT. Love the videos.
Was raised and taught to use an appropriate sized tractor for the job at hand, so many videos now seeing there's frequently way more tractor being used than is really needed
The price of tractirs have jumped so much in recent years many farms use a paid for tractor to do multiple jobs. They are also covering more acres so it is nice to have a more comfortable tractor to get the ground covered.
@@bigtractorpower when Dad & I, and then later after Dad retired, just me, whenever a piece of equipment or tractor was purchased it was paid for in full at time of purchase as was everything,, only debt carried was the mortgage on the farm itself,,, sad that so many, for whatever reason are so far in debt that grankids & great grankids will be the family that pays off the farm if it ever is
How old does a tractor need to be to be considered a Classic? I have a 31 year old 1990 Massey Ferguson 3070 and a 32 year old IMT 539.
25 years
Excellent video.
499,s are decent haybines we have one and my uncle has 1. But nowadays it seems they don't make 499 anymore which i guess it sucks sides we ain't able to find newer models of 499. But inerways thanks for sharing! .
That remembers me when we baled hay with our kramer tractor and an old welger baler. Thanks for the video.👍
Grüß aus Stuttgart. Ich liebe this channel.
Nice group of tractors. Not my favorite farm task though. I was usually stuck on the hay rack behind the bailer. None of those fancy automated contraptions on our farm :)
I agree these tractor were not even made in my childhood.
Thanks b t p . Lots of hay operations out there. Enjoyed.
LOL, in my day we picked up the hay bails and carried them to the hay wagon where someone would stack them ,I was around 8 or 9. 1968
Remember that being done in the 1950's.
good stuff did not realize miny moline was also White tractors. IH 656 row crop hydro ??
Well they were bought out by white but only one field boss had any real moline dna, and that was the 2-150
@@nellsonstout7001 copy that god stuff like david brown, steiger, cockshoot, massey harris, ford ferguson plow
That opening shot looks like our farm did in the late 70s
😁👍👍. Great time in farming.
Neat way to do hay, to bad we didn't have anything like that when I was working on the farm 30 something years ago!!!
The Stack Cruiser can really move some square bales.
I just have to laugh. My Uncle and I picked up bales one at a time with a pitchfork and slung them onto a truck bed. Those alfalfa bales! OMG! Thanks for the video
😁👍👍
Nice !!!
Nice video keep it up!
