The Scientist Hay Farmer
США
Добавлен 25 июл 2006
I'm a scientist, a classic automotive restoration enthusiast, and a hay farmer! The primary focus of this channel is how-to videos and descriptions of hay farming equipment, footage, and techniques, with occasional how-to videos on automotive restoration techniques, primarily in paint and body and classic Mustangs.

Bad day for my Haybine! Part 2: The fix
Просмотров 71221 день назад
In an earlier video I showed the aftermath of what happened to my push bar when mowing some very heavy, tall grass. That video can be found here 👇🏻 ruclips.net/video/rMaoh4UqhC0/видео.htmlsi=ZLHjrSXpnA9mJb6K Here I show the new pushbar made for it and how we fixed the mower. I’ve mowed 17 acres with it since and it works great.
Will the hay dry?! Race against time before the rain!

Because it was cold and cloudy on the day it was mowed, I only had one day to get some extremely heavy dry before baling day since rain was in the forecast.

Shimming the feeder tine carriage on a New Holland 273 baler
Просмотров 8362 месяца назад
In this video I demonstrate how to shim the feeder tine carriage on your new Holland 273 bailer. This is a common area for too much play as the wear blocks wear down, causing them to require shimming. Excessive play in this area can greatly damage the entire bailer.

STOP DOING THIS when you break a shear bolt on your baler!

This is probably the most common mistake when a shear bolt breaks that leads to a destroyed baler-not understanding why the shear bolt broke in the first place.

All the equipment needed to make hay on a small farm
Lets see you after about 200 bales and still got 1,500 bales to go. Then also throw it znd stack in the barn.
I wish we had more women like her❤
I did that all summer long in 1973 at 25 cents per hour. This 13 year old boy thought he was rich.
No place for anyone who has hay fever.
It's not hay. It's alfalfa.
Alfalfa hay. SMDH. hay can be made from about any crop
LOL. Alfalfa is hay. But this is grass not alfalfa
Does she has an Only Fans Account?
Moms are strong and farmers too.
Who's cooking dinner
McDonalds
What a way to spend a lovely sunny afternoon in the country. ⚘️😂
That's a tough job.
Back in my day mom had to load the wagon by herself! ... while we bailed in high gear! 😮
Dang,I don't own a baler, nor do I cut hay, but you sir make this stuff clear, and interesting! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos
Started doing this on the farm when I was 6 with my 13 year old cousin. 20 years of doing this and I still miss it. Gotta feed them horses. God Bless Farmers!
Not letting sit and dry a couple of days ?
Start getting up to 12-14 high it gets tough
Appreciate seeing this! Always curious to learn more about the NH knotters - surprises me how many differences there are from the older Masseys. Now I’m curious to look even closer at mine.
I bale got a guy that has a 19’ windrower. It will not dry underneath, so tedding is the only option. I try to tedd as soon as I can behind him mowing.
I think you’ll find you might get better drying and less discoloring if you wait a day and then ted. The hay will spread out better when it’s had a day to dry on the top.
I use to think this was fun when I was 12. I'm older and wiser now.
It's not easy, y'all.
Bailed alot of hay like that
I have bailed thousands.
Light dry bales. I threw many many growing up as a kid, hay also, no gloves.
Your will regret your decisions if you throw thin poly twine with no gloves.
Yea tean! Hated the farm work cutting trees and so on , but now that I am older I really miss it and comradery . Hope you can enjoy a couple cold beers after and some great conversation
Boy some of you guy’s were really making the money. 5¢ a bale and someone making $10 a day. In my hay day (pun intended) our elderly neighboring farmer paid my brother and I $2 a day plus his wife always made beef stew. As much as we could eat. We never cared about the money, we weren’t gonna get rich on those wages. We were 14 and 15 and our mother told us to go help him out and don’t ask for any money. We weren’t gonna ask, we just went to help him out. Plus the lunch of beef stew was a surprise. Every time he baled hay or straw we helped and his wife made beef stew. Best stew I ever ate hands down. None I ever tasted could beat it. Large chunks of beef browned on the outside and tender inside. Fork sized pieces of potatoes and carrots. Parsnips and maybe smaller pieces of turnips onions celery and peas. And thick. Your spoon could straight up in a bowl of that stew about 5 seconds before it fell over. And oh my was it delicious. But you probably know those old farm wives. Once they had a recipe that everyone loved, nobody was getting it. Not even her daughters. And they didn’t.
I have a bx 23s and I bailed with it this year and it worked great you can set the button for cruise and don't have to tuch nothing but t steering wheel and i was pulling a bailer and 100 bail of hay work s great for raking kay to
And that is a kobota bx23 s
I did this as a young boy in the 90s. Its not easy after awhile
Brings back memories ❤❤
1967 we had several wagons m0m 3 sisters ❤
Look at this load, perfect 😂😂
We went 6 high in the hill of Iowa.
I used to put up 500 bills a day and get paid $10
I hope you let those bales sit and dry for a spell before you stack them in the barn ! I have never seen them loaded directly from the baler before. We used to bale them and let them sit in the field for a few days before hauling them to the barn. A certain amount of moisture in the bale is necessary, but too much moisture will cause spontaneous combustion! I have seen some hellacious barn fires in my days….just saying 😊
LOL. Bales at 8-10% absolutely do not need to sit outside. They’re going straight in the barn. Spontaneous combustion comes from excessive stem moisture and needs to be at least 30%.
Barn fires from square bales happens when the hay maker doesn't know what he's doing and bales way to wet. A bale that will start on fire in a barn is gonna get moldy no matter how long it sits outside.
They make kick balers and hay racks. Only need one person to bale a field. Just fyi.
Also accumulators and grapple loaders. 100x faster than doing by hand. They are called idiot cubes for a reason.
Looked into grapples but was going to be significantly slower for me.
She must be tough wearing a sweater n all 😅
I've never seen a woman do this in real life, never.
I’ve seen quite a lot. You need to hang around better women apparently. My wife was on the wagon helping me when she was 8 months pregnant.
Started doing this when I was around 10 at 5¢ a bale.
Brown Hay is better than No Hay!
There's that gym membership 🤣👍🤣👍. Peloton who ❓🤣👍.
Mom's can do anything they set their heads to doin. Raising kids is the toughest job. 😊❤
Done plenty of that !!
Did 1000’s of bales like this in the late 80’s through the 90’s. Alfalfa in good ole Ky , always hot and dusty ! Good ole days. !!
Cooler failure after 3 days---
LOL. This video is over 2 years old. Why would you set yourself up so easily to look like an idiot? This entire set up still works great.
If ya ain't bleeding, ya aren't doing it rite. Lol.
Awesome. But what's with the gloves and wrap around the wrists? Lol
Thin poly twine murders your hands enough even with gloves on. I make them wear gloves because they’re no good to me if their hands are sore and blistered the next day. On this day we stacked 800 bales, the day before 650 and the day after 700.
@TheScientistHayFarmer . I've never used plastic twine. Doesn't seem like the best idea. I'm not taking anything away from you and all the work. It's hard work. Been doing it for 28 years. I've always used 9000 ciecle twine. It doesn't kill your hands. God bless what your doing. Not many people can handle it.
@TheScientistHayFarmer . Otherwise give them hay hooks. Way better then trying to grab plastic razor wire.
I hate sisal twine and so does my baler. But it is nicer on the hands than lightweight poly twine.
@@TheScientistHayFarmerwhy so many idiot cubes? Rounds are 10x faster to put up. Is it for sale or personal use?
Stacking bales on the wagon was the easy part. Staying on the wagon while the older guy with a bad knee started off with big jerk was fun.
Where are your hay hooks?
In the twine box. None of us like to use them.
Only 5 tier high!!! Add 3 more, and that's what we did when i was 16. I'm 60 now.
There’s a lot of reasons we only stack 5 high. The first is we don’t need to because a wagon is getting emptied while this wagon is getting filled. So there’s always a fresh wagon that gets brought out to us. We send the wagons back 100 bales at a time. The second reason is it takes them longer to get the higher stacks so the hay makes a log jam and I have to slow down. It’s not as efficient for me then. The third reason is it tires them out faster to stack higher and people that are passing out from heat exhaustion are no good to me.
Moms hot
Wow I remember those days, prayed for sunshine and dry hot days. The heat never stopped us, I stacked on the wagon till wagons were full spent the rest of the day in hay mow till we were done, just to do it again tomorrow. I disliked the kicker bales, I didn't get a break just stacked yay in mow all day, that was hot
Worked for farmer with kicker bales and was pain in the rear to unload the wagons.
I did this when was a kid, 40,000 bales a year
