    Your a big operation but you don't act like one. Nice to see you clean up around the rock and the little slice that was missed. Taking pride in everything you do!! Big operators by me wouldn't waste the time that's just not right. Nice job Jr. and Andy

    I love watching and great to see Grandpa, Dad and the boys all working the farm together. The future is in good hands from the looks. The drone stuff is so good too, thanks.

    Great to see some mowing and I also like hearing about the farms and their stories. Thanks a lot. It would be nice if possible to see some more of the actions before chopping, like mowing and windrowing.

    I'm impressed with how fast you seem to go! I would hate to think how long it would take to mow that hay with a WD 45 Allis pulling a 10 ft Haybine! That's what I used the last time I mowed hay for my Uncle about 47 yrs. ago!

    Your video was a nice peaceful way to wind down the day. I always enjoyed mowing hay. Enjoyed the smell of fresh cut alfalfa. The only bummer was if I ran into a cat, rabbit, pheasant, or some animal hidden in the hay. Not a good outcome for them.

    @28081481 4 года назад

    Another great video thank you Andy. Sorry to hear you’re going into a drought there. We just came out of a three year drought here where we are in Australia. A lot of other places had on average a seven year one. For us we usually get around 60 inches of rain annually. Last year we got 8 inches total. Was the worst in living memory. Alfalfa (they call it lucurne here) was the only thing that pulled us through for feed.

    @colincostine9775 4 года назад

    Over here in Cow Hampsha those skips are called "holidays" In order to be a safe mower you have to leave one close to the road so that as the mowing inspectors drive by o check on you they can see your error at a glance instead of having to really crane their necks and maybe get into a wreck. Mow safely!!

    Its been dry as a popcorn fart in lower NY. The farmer was baling next to us and it didn't take long from the time he cut it to the time to bale. It looked like you could set it on fire in the field it was so dry

  • @mataiterapreha
    @mataiterapreha 4 года назад

    We run a set of agco mowers with the tine conditioners, we have it on a 220hp tractor but 180hp would run it fine. The front doesn't follow the contours like those pottingers do though.

  • @SLCFarms
    @SLCFarms 4 года назад

    Will you make silage with this? How long will it sit in the windrow before the chopper comes along.?
    Or maybe it's for hay bales?
    We always swathed right infront of the chopper. We found if it was left to dry, it became difficult to pack in the silage pit.

    hay guys i don't know if you have ran a 7920, i'll tell ya if y get a chance to run one for a while, or get you one, you wont be disappointed, they will walk all over them 7930, they are full framed the motors wow you would not think so but they are a nice little big tractor, that's all i can think of to explain it is ''it's a little big tractor'' and it's just the right sizes for planting corn, or mowing or anything like that, it's a great little tractor to spreed manure, i mean i had one, the guy i worked for bought two of them, and we have the 30 to but nobody wants to run the the 30, they all want 20's i don't know y the dealer ships push the 30's cause the 20's are twice the tractor, truly !!!!! just say'n !!!!!

    What kind of ground speed can you run with the pottinger triple? Curious how it compares in terms of acres/hour to a self propelled. I like the ride in a good self propelled swather, always heard it was hard to run as fast in a triple mower setup, but would love your thoughts. Looks like you're moving along pretty good!
