  • THE HANDMADE BALES: When men in their tractors towing harvesters made silage on my paddock recently I wandered around the giant green bails and marvelled at the efficiency of the process. But I also noticed entire seams of cut grass still left on the ground. I thought, you know what, I could run around and gather up the leftover hay, and make my own bales!’. So that’s what I did.

    A baling man, a sweaty chap,
    No towel nor rag upon his lap.
    He scoops the hay and binds it tight,
    His sweaty brow a humorous sight.
    The sun beats down, the heat intense,
    His sweaty dance, a mere pretense.
    He laughs, he jokes, he makes light,
    Of his perspiring, glistening plight.
    "Oh, sweat!" he exclaims, "You slippery foe,
    You make me damp from head to toe!"
    But he carries on, and bales away,
    For nothing stops the man of hay.

    For anyone wondering, one 4x5 Round bale would be approx 50-70 of Beaus 'tuckerbox' bales (They are compressed quite tight). The shot at 3:06 shows there are 23 Rounds in the paddock that Beau is in. I estimate Beau raked between 0.6% and 0.8% of the hay in that paddock.
