Brings back lovely memories there were lovely times
The best days ❤️
I used to spend most my summers up my cousins farm in Shropshire helping with harvest and hay making . Must do it again been years and take my daughter with me .
That sounds like a good memory Stuart
@@DaleFarm great childhood and teen years grew up with old Leyland tractors and a Nuffield in the yard with a seized engine. Big event when my uncle bought a brand new Ford 7610 4 wheel drive.
I figured we would see Jo out there bucking Hay bales. Ha Ha. Thanks for the video. 🚜
Your dad takes good care of his machinery your sheep will love that hay take care
We try to look after it keep it inside during the winter months costs so much to replace
Watching him makes me remember my Grandfather and Father! So many years in the fields. Brings back such good memories!
You look lovely in your summery hat
Like everyone's idea of what a country lady should look like
Thank you so much Christian
When I was a youngster I thought bucking the hay was good fun, hard work but a good workout! The homemade ice cream treat we’d get afterward was probably the real motivator!😁✌️❤️
Homemade ice cream sounds epic
John's one of the gentlest men I've ever met. Lovely man.
Thanks Malcolm 👍my mum would have been so proud to hear that!
Good day from Ontario Canada. Boy your dad really likes Belarus tractors. Thanks
The best so simple to operate!!
@@johnshimwell9638 Our neighbor had a 520 wow 23 different levers. Fair on fuel. Thanks
You can't beat a brown, it's looks in amazing condition.
It's in very good condition not been on a livestock farm we had had her about 4yrs always kept inside!!
@@johnshimwell9638 Wow, they are so rare to fine them like that. Hope you enjoy it for many years, and well done for minding it!
Now that's wot I call farming
Glad you enjoyed it Clive
I love to see watch hay making, it brings back memories of my child hood. We would run through the fields as the adults stacked bales in the wagon. Then play in the hay barn on the rope swing at the end of the day.
Great memories, I have been haymaking since a child and have good memories too
This brings back memories of hard work and good times. I have no idea how many thousands of bails I bailed and handled. Thanks for posting.
You are welcome thank you for watching
just proves u dont need state of the art gear love it
Old is the best haha
that baler worked better than most modern baler theres always a few escapees on the way home
The bales were so light not the easiest to stack and not an easy access out of the field!!
@@johnshimwell9638 yeah they looked half size bales for easier handling but not easy stacking i know been there used to them for small holders who were older couldnt manage a heavy bale
Great video. Love the belarus on the baler. I have one myself . There a great tractor 😊
The best 👍🚜
You need a new sticker on the haydock lol
Great haying weather but way too hot for comfort here too some days. I've got a similar Massey 120 baler from the 1970s. It still works to make a few straw bales every year. Most hay is made in big rounds or squares nowadays.
We round bale most of ours always try to make a few small bales they are so handy to have!!
This made me think back to when I was a kid going to my late uncles farm during hay time sitting on the old international or on the side of the hay sled brilliant fun . Great video
I used to work with a contractor that had an MF 20 baler, very good and reliable but a slow intake for a contractor in the 80's and 90's they got 2 X MF 124's which were much bigger intakes and therefore faster but apart from that it was only cosmetic differances, MF124 were squarer corners, MF20 rounded corners. Like the DB 885, we owned an Red imperlematic 880 and MF 65 M2 and the contractor had an DB 1200, DB1210 and DB 1412. Also MF 1135, MF 590, MF188, MF575, Also JD 3140, And 4WD 3130 At the time, 80's - 90's along with a JD Digger and MF65R before changing that for a Volvo 4200BM which had the same engine as the MF 188/590
Brings back old times looking at your outfit. Like the MTZ 62, there were a few in our county (Kerry) but they were rare. Mostly DB, MF, Ford and JD
Class video, brings back so many memories, even the bales falling off the trailer. Remember sitting on top of the load from field to shed. Its a very satisfying feeling when everything falls into place, hay weather, machinery, helpers etc.
Yes it’s a wonderful thing to experience 🥰
I could watch the vintage tractors all day long, you certainly had great weather for making hay ,thanks for sharing with us Joanna, your dad is a star, stay safe.
Thank you Kelvin 🥰
You are fortunate to have all the help for making small squares. Here have to do big rounds or big squares. I noticed no shields on the baler PTO. Lot of hay in that field. Beautiful hat worn by a beautiful young lady
One of my favorite things in this World ,Baling hay ! Thanks for Sharing 🇺🇸
I grew up in a hay mow filled 5 barns a year but I've never seen a collector like that. We always pulled a wagon behind and loaded straight on the wagon. Thanks for sharing
You are welcome! Thanks for watching! Interesting to see the different ways it can be done x
Omg brings back so many memories it was really good to see.
your late dad was so lively and fit that was only in july wow
Yeah he wasn’t sick, his heart stopped
@@DaleFarm so sorry xx
Very good video old school last time l dun hay 1977👍👍👍
Grate to see videos had 20d for years grate bailer look forward to seeing your videos. In future tanks
Thank you
This was wonderful to see. I do remember that once in my younger & stronger day I helped my uncle collect the bales from the fields. I remember we worked hard on that hot day, had a good dinner & quickly fell asleep. Looks as if your father was quite pleased with quality of the grass & the quantity of the bales. He was very happy with the weather too.
Hi Roberta , yes haymaking is a wonderful family event in the farming calendar. Nice to hear you have memories of it too. Yes we were shattered afterwards and looking after the camp site too! Definitely sleep like a log !
my late brother in family are famers we use love going over when the hay was being cut smell of fresh hay
Good old MF20 baler, we have one too and never missed a bale this year 👌👌
A lot hay made the year 🤙🤙👍👍
Very good old balers 👍
Brings back lovely memories.
WOW...does this video take me back to my lad days on the farm and helping other farmers bring their hay bales in off the fields. I could 'smell' the hay while watching. I'd walk the field, pick the bales and throw them up on the wagon where another 'lad' would stack them - the tractor never stopped. And mercy...that baler is amazing for how old it be - those tractors too! Thanks Joanne for the trip down memory lane! Stay safe - be well - many blessings.
Thank you for watching ross. Haymaking is a wonderful time! Even tho hard work stacking and moving bales in the heat
@@DaleFarm YEP...heat did make for an 'itchy' day what with the sweat and hay dust. Cheers...
Well done John..Glad tha baler did you proud and that the feeder fingers didn't snap..so your spare ones will last another year. Hay made that quickly in your county must be a record. You all can now relax ..you only have the campers to worry about.....
Hey Andrew, yes it was a blessing we
Got through haymaking fast and smoothly ! And now summer holidays for the camp site a very demanding time but can’t complain as at least we are open x
Brought back happy memories of walking around the field stacking bales for half a crown a day (12.5p ! ) Nice video and episode. Cheers
Thank you Alastair ;) you were paid more than me hehe
All very very good , lots of hard work.
Yes, good rewarding work
You don’t get better weather for hay making than that very often. That old 41 year old baler certainly performed well and the bale collector must be one of the original machines of that type. When the ‘flat eight’ collectors became commonplace, the simplest one had switch over gates which guided the bales into the appropriate channels, with number eight triggering the tailgate release. I could almost feel the heat and smell the hay.
Should have tied that load on. As soon as I saw it going along the road i could have bet money that the rear corner was going to fall off .
Still a nice feeling to get it all done and in the barn. See you in around 5 weeks.
your dad is a legend and a true gentleman and you are a very sweet lady.Wishing you all the very best x
Just watched the Winter, February video and now the Summer video. Love seeing your old equipment Truly a lovely part of the world. Wonderful. Thank you
Proper hay making, takes me back to my youth helping local farmer now his field has gone to bramble and no more cutting. Thanks Jo. Best wishes to all.
Thank you Mars!!
Hiya Joanna, great video, it took me straight back to the 60s' to Rutland then South Wales watching the straw being bailed and transported. The tractor, bailer, the cage behind it, all as it was. Fantastic to watch it all still working, and working so well. Dad was in the RAF hence the move, Cyprus came next in 68. Now there was great heat, 105 in August, running down the cliff path to the beach, swimming all day then running home. No ice on the water thank you very much, just warm Medeterainian sea.
Stay safe, Steve...
Hi Jo
You and you dad look great in your hats 🧢 👒.
It’s so relaxing watching the bales of hay coming out the back of the tractor 🚜.
Super hot though. Hope you are all ok
Take care
Love Kim x x
Thanks Kim, it was INTENSE! But I love the sunshine it makes me so happy 😀
MF20 was a very good baler in there day . We had one new and it was very reliable. Sorry to bore you 😂
Bore me talking about balers never lol
great heat helps the hay but not the farmer in a old tractor John enjoys his tractors and is very knowledgeable about them and hay i love listening to him talk he shines hugsssssss
Great video. Nice seeing the MF20 at work
Belarus 52 is a mighty fine machine for its age and is in lovely condition. Linkage drawbar is a sweet idea on those jobs! John is well able for hard work. Really enjoyed all the footage.
I've only had the 52 for a couple of years but it's in very good original condition 👍 thanks for your comments
Joanna, that looked like a wonderful cut of hay, and I bet it smelt lovely, best wishes to you all from East Anglia.
Thanks Colin the hay is so soft and it smells wonderful. Thanks for watching
That was hay making at its best
I have to admit that I watch for your videos. They are such a joy, even with a heartache sometimes....but, that’s life. This is such an education for me because I grew up near New York City.
I was watching Sandi Brock the other day and they have these huge modern tractors. What a contrast. LOL
But, there is nothing like a summers day in the Dales. You are so fortunate....especially now during this chaos. Wish I was there on Dale farm.
Hey Christine, ah I think I understand - glad you enjoy the videos even if they do give you a yearning! I have lived at Dale farm for petty much my whole life so I don’t know much else! X
Super film .patrick Ursus tractors from France
Sweet seeing you and your Dad, great memories.
Yeah ♥️❤️🩹
Well done jo,love to see the old kit doing there job miss it really we only use new kit blink and you miss type of thing ,keep smiling it’s beautiful thanks

Thank you Roy! Was a really good few days , good memories
The hay looks great and you look even better Joanna a ray of sunshine
As my old boss in 1964 used to say DON'T TOUCH THE KNOTTERS just grease xx

Excellent video! Takes me back to my youth.
Thank you Charles
Only been without our 20 four years wore it out but was over 30 years 😂 .. good machine, now run a Jones 10T, thanks for sharing this great hay scene 👍🚜
Nice looking baler
What a lovely video! So well filmed and a joy to watch. There was so much beauty that day and you captured it so well. God bless your Dad, he seems like such a nice man. Thanks Joanna!
The Good Lord's work, including the tippy toppy hay wagon getting its word in edgewise.
Yes , no harm was done and we were still smiling even tho sticky and prickled!
Oohh peak District it is hi from Lincolnshire
Great video Joanna and your Dad
THANK YOU FOR ANOTHER GREAT HAY MAKING VIDEO JOANNA , LIKE YOUR SUN HAT , EVERY ONE PLEASE KEEP SAFE AND WELL , XXX .
Thank you Ernest x
brilliant vid wish we had some of that heat now here in cork rain all day here
Look really nice with that hat
Thank you!!
Lovely work its always good to see older kit nice to see every one is well hi from lee in oz
I bought a MF20 baler recently as a vintage working exhibit. Yer one is going really well. No breakages?
Long ago in Ireland we used have to stook the bales in fours with knots down and out and leave for a week in the field lest they heat in the barn. Lot of fine weather essential. Farmers back then were really physically fit from such labours and had no weight or health issues. Far less stressful then in comparison to the intensive farming today.
Your video depicts perfectly what hay making used to be like. Well done. 👍👏👏👏
Hi you really did pick a hot dry spell for the hay making brill ! Really enjoyed this weeks tv show hope dad enjoyed his mini break
Thank you Andy , the tv show was filmed back in September 2020! The hay making was fantastic
Hi folks this sort of thing makes me proud to be british one hand watching four winds farm vids and then yours ....100s of thousands of pounds equipment then stuff a tenth of value all doing same work brilliant...
A really enjoyable video great to see the David Brown tractor on the farm working. Well done everyone 👍👍
The David Brown is a good little tractor 🚜
I thank God for videos like these!
I’m thankful to you for watching
Really nice video, brought back alot of memories. Just an idea, drop the trailer, stick a rake on the loader to help load the bales, significantly faster. Also, tie the load down with ropes or straps, it's worth it! Keep up the great work.
More more
Joanna your Dad did a great job baling
Takes me back to my farm experiences in the seventies love see the David Brown also the bale sledge , thought the Massey baler had an unusual feeder ram set up , but seems highly effective. Hopefully come winter the sheep will appreciate all your efforts x.
Thanks for watching Mike xx
I enjoy watching the bailing of the hay with antiquated equipment, which performed beautifully.
Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you Cheryl
@@DaleFarm You are welcome.
Lovely man.
He was xxx
Reminds me of my childhood, throwing bales to the adults who would stack them on the wagon. Rockin' the hat J !
Miss this time of year on my uncle's farm we did about 30 acres I'm a farms son from Scotland
Your soo pretty. Here it's been rain rain rain. Raked some saturday and rained all today sunday, maybe monday can rake again and get it baled. Have a great day.
to watch the time and sweat put in to the hay is always the love in what you give to the animals later and helping neighbor or friend is keeping a community strong even in these uncomfortable times👍💪🚜
always like the real life on a working farm video. the yellow straw hat with red top is a nice look for you.
Thank you for watching Robert! The old ways are great I think x
That's the exact same rake I have sitting outside my shop.
Brilliant video, old skooll is best.beautilful weather for baling.
I do love old school too!
Thanks for another great video . A classic hay harvest in style. We do do some in a very similar fashion. The 885 look really tidy and nice . Yorkshire made quality!
Thank you so much for the video in the seventies I helped stack the hay bales on the sledge into packs of eighteen then pulled the gate open loved it thank you for the memories
You are welcome Jake thank you for watching
Joanna your Dad did a great job tedding
Enjoyed that!
wow i was 4 when that baler was made lol
Hi Jo, watching you and dad makes me feel like I am watching my daughter and myself. We still make a few small bales too but mostly round ones as it is harder to get help with the carting. Cheers for now Dave.
Father and daughter time is very precious! ❤️❤️
Hello Jo nice to see the old baler doing a great job and tractor, hay looking very good
Nice to see the old baler out, it’s a few years older than me as well🤣🤪. Looked nice hay, sure he sheep will enjoy it this winter. Ahh the self unloading bale trailer 🤣🤦♂️ Had that happen a few times with us. I then got taught to build bother ends of the trailer, then fill the middle, keeps everything straight and tight 😊
Let’s blame nick as he was stacking! The bales were super light and not easy to stack in all Fairness 🥰
@@DaleFarm 🤣 poor old Nick! Ahh yeah, it’s as bad to have soft bales as it is heavy but heavy ones stack better 🤦♂️🤷♂️ x
LOVE the smiles in the beginning of the video
Beautiful land, your so fortunate
Thank you Angela yes we are
The David Brown is looking good,.... nice upload... thanks... almost forgot to mention that i live down under and we have learned to live with the heat...
Hey Greg! I reckon in Australia you must get used to it. Here is often humid when hot and it can be very draining on your energy! And we don’t have air con so it’s not always so pleasant at night in the house! But we manage! I try not to complain 🤣
I've helped out many times in the past with that type of hay making.
It’s good fun isn’t it chris
Great video really enjoyed it. Your father is some man to stick the heat of mtz52 but by god that old girl is running like a mouse's heart. Great to see you getting such value out of old gear, we run alot of very similar machines 🚜🥰🇮🇪
Can't beat them with the cab doors off its not too bad!
@@johnshimwell9638 we have a mtz52 with an rsm cab not the Duncan cab, and o boy it gets warm in the cab on a hot day, great auld tractor to stay going we have her since new 1976
