Watching from New Zealand. Id love your baler. I too am running an arcusin c14 multipack. Terrific machine. I wouldn't be baling conventionals without it now. We have a long parallel soft hand which clamps the 14 bale packs from the sides. Means we can lift 2 packs (28 bales) at once. Love ya work, enjoy watching farming content from other parts of the world for ideas.
Great video, I love to see how the larger operations bale hay. All I know is standing on the trailer and taking the bales right off the baler and stacking them.
That was part of the national physical fitness program. My job was at the top of the elevator in the mow. Grab and throw. It makes the food taste better, and the sleep come quickly. When we were not baling hay at home, we mowed hay for other farmers @ $1.00/ hour. We were rich.
I use Sila-Prime hay Inoculant on every bale that I have made for the past 35 years. Helps with digestive quality of the hay as well as storage quality.
Thoughts on twine vs wire? Adding a small baler soon, and want maintenance of wire, but twine is so much cheaper.. I aint old, but I aint gonna be young forever.
@@FarmingInsider thanks, yes no question about it very hard work, nice to see you can still get people to work! Anyway better to watch you do it! You must have a strong Massey dealer close by?
Wouldn’t it be a little faster running a couple stack cruisers and cut down on equipment costs and labor. You’ve got a lot of handling before it’s even in the barn. Just asking. We find it hard just trying to find enough help in this area
We run two bale wagons back to the barn for storage and stack on top of the load with a grab on a telehandler when shipping out we’re loading 53 foot boxes and 50 foot drop decks we only do drops and pick an empty up for return trip
@@johnhlubik297 I would love to be semi loads only in the future but at the moment we are sending out probably the majority of our hay in 200-400 bale gooseneck deliveries
Next year the hope is to do about 200,000. Now that is an absolutely perfect year when we don't have to roundbale or large square bale any acres. Perfect, not super realistic lol

I would like to see that clamp in action. Do you have any pictures or videos?
@@FarmingInsider Yep, got a few pics, email me scottybish@hotmail.com and I'll wetransfer them to you.

That's tough work!

Awesome video as always! Keep up the awesome work! Y'all will take off soon enough.
Thanks for the kind words!

Great stuff! We love it
Those could be show bales at the county fair! Your operation is like a well-oiled machine. Nice work!
Thankful for the expert commentary, Matt. Helping people understand the American farm operation.
We take pride in our hay! Thank you!
✝️😇🔯🕊️🧄👽🐑🤍🔭🎇🦅🇺🇸🌏🌠🌎🌠🪐🌍🌠🪐Holy Psalm 91 Jesus and KathrynMiller say Thankyou for sharing ✝️🤍✝️🤍✝️🦅🇺🇸🍀🍀🍀
Thats a big field baskets would take for ever on a field like that so your grappel system works great for you have to make it easier for you
We think so! thank you for watching
I wouldn’t want to do that with a kicker baler and wagon.Some day I hope to see an operation like yours.
Come check us out!
Oh, hay. I was wondering what that was.

Handling wire is really a pain. Twine maintenance really isn't all that bad if you stay on top of it
Can I ask what state you are located in? I did small squares for over 30 years, too old and worn out to do it anymore!
Hey Dave! We are in Ohio, about 40 minutes drive south of Cleveland.
It’s hard but satisfying work

I am considering buying a new Massey 1840 baler are you happy with this baler ?
Extremely happy. Very consistent and uniform bales
@@FarmingInsider Thank you.

We found bundles fits our market a little better with machine unloading at customer locations

How many bales would you make in a good season ?.

We ship primarily to the race tracks in New York too much local competition and bad pay
Send it where the getting is good!
just out of curiosity why so short of a bale, maybe 32 inch?
We can stack 3 across an 8ft trailer or push more into a van body semi
The guy ralking had a cab tractor the guy picking up the bales had a cab tractor but the poor guy baking had an open cab Whats up with that loo
Haha!! this wasn't all the same day but you have a valid point
