Seeing bailers lay bails is great... so is your support for Hazza on the farm! I'm sure Jack will find his own path..... well done to you and the missus for raising two champs!
Harry is becoming a competent young farmer. Unless you are working a huge farm or are doing contract work, a big tractor is a waste of money and fuel. You are so fortunate to have so many tractors suitable to do the jobs on your farm.
We have a 1972 Deutz 55 hp still going strong. Mainly used for fertilizer spreading, chainharrowing and tedding with a 5.5 meter tedder. Perfect for the job. Our main tractor is a 1998 85hp New Holland 6635, does the "bigger " Jobs 😊
Hi Richard, Good to see you get the hay bailed. Boy, Boy, you sure know your history of the music people. I hope the weather stays good it's been a funny old year with all the rain. Good luck, and God bless you and your family
Good morning Richard, You are one lucky man Ito would love to be out there tethering on a nice sunny day, All the best to you on your hell of a lot of grass, You take care of yourself and stay safe.🚜🚜☀️⭐️👍👌
The older kit is brilliant for jobs like this, for me the sound of a 135 always takes me back to my childhood, the farm near to us had one as their only tractor (this was back in late 90's eatly 2000's) you could hear it trundling around regularly became part if the soundtrack of my childhood, i later used it to cart hay, sadly the farm got sold off, not sure where that old tractor ended up
Nice to see the hay coming in. 11:35 there’s a hole in my pocket, dear Liza, dear Liza, there’s a hole in my pocket, dear Liza , a hole. I guess since you’re in a hay fried, Henry could fix it with hay.
Interesting vblog. I used to love hay making on my friend small holding. It was only 30 acres. Tedding with a Massy tractor happy days and a old fashioned bailer. All the best from Worcester 🎉
We're getting our hay in, too, in NY state. The weather has been MUCH better this year. We usually get first cutting in around the first week or two in June. Last year, it rained so much that first cutting of horse hay was the beginning of August. THAT was scary! Hay is a bit late this year, but is much nicer than last year's crop.
haymaking is simple when the weather is good ........a nightmare when the weather isn't right. personally i don't agree with the scheme that says you can't cut your hay till after 5thJuly.......you have to make hay when the weather is right not when the callender tells you to make it
It looks like you’re gonna have to buy Harry Baller for he can do the hay at the next show. Doesn’t need to be very new. Maybe you can find one out farm cell farm cell go on auctions get cheap one and a new rake or used rake.
@@mula2626 Hay is preserved by being fully dried out, which is why it takes about a week to dry in the field before it can be baled. Silage is preserved grass that is basically pickled. It is harvested when it has more moisture than hay. It can either be chopped and stored in a shed or baled. Either way silage has to be wrapped in a layer of plastic so that anaerobic conditions are created so that acid is produced which pickles the grass.
@@mula2626 Sure. One thing I forgot to say is that the plastic keeps out the oxygen, which creates the anaerobic conditions. This allows the sugar in the grass to be fermented which produces the acid that preserves the grass.

My bailing contractor wont let us row it up with the hay bob on account the rows are to small for the bailer
👍
i would say harrie wants to do ag mec
How can the hay still be that fine , being the first cut ,end of june? Whas that meadow first grazed , or not fertilised?
it was grazed with sheep early spring
you wanna buy that field
Thought you would of had the 35 on rowing up Rich
still time for that
@@thefunkyfarmer great can’t wait to see, I have my 135 doing what ever jobs it wants to do 🤪
How many acres is that field?
about 4
do you still have the 135
👀🙄🐾👍
😁xx
Looked like Timothy and cocks foot the grasses in your hand the joints of Timothy stems
First hay of the year? I’ve seen you loading round bales wrapped in plastic. Isn’t that hay?
That’s silage. There’s no need to wrap hay because it’s dried out.
@@DANFORTHPAPE1 isn’t silage what gets chopped up and stored in a shed.?
