We did have some areas that yielded poorly, and it cut through them just as well as better yielding areas. Overall, the cut quality was great no matter the yield or speed it was going.
The speed varies depending on how heavy the hay is. In first cutting when the hay is the heaviest, we can go about 7 or 8 MPH. In fourth cutting when there's a fairly weak stand, we typically go about 12MPH.
Just stumbled across you channel tonight. I grew up on a small dairy, beef, rowcrop farm on the oregon side of the snake river. Not too far from Boise. If you don't mind. What part of Idaho do you farm?
