- Today is our first day of baling dry hay for the 2024 season! This is being filmed in late June and it’s been a struggle to get in the fields all summer so far. But lucky today the 7810 and New Holland square baler are able to get some work done. It was a great day of haying and we are looking forward to many more this summer. Thank you all for watching!

Brings back memories. We never used a thrower, the thrower were us kids
Nothing like a NH baler and thrower! I used to stack behind them, first was a 1960's 281, and then an '80's 326. The old one, I could keep up with, but the newer one would cover me up in good hay. Then I had to unload the wagons... Didn't need a gym for a workout! 😂👍👍
Yeah man been there done that, wish I still could
I'm 68 and this brings back memories! We used to buck, unload and stack in the barn.
Best workout and sense of accomplishment on the farm. Nothing gives better piece of mind than a barn full of small squares. Especially in the dead of winter.
Man, I broke out in a sweat watching this video. My father built two hay wagons in the mid 70’s after looking at the metal racks at a neighbor farm progress show. They were pretty big for our operation, Our neighbor down the road bought the wagons at our farm machinery auction in 2001 a just recently dad made some repairs in the back that had blown out. Had the lumber to repair.
We had a few flat wagons that I could stack 175 on, and some commercial 8X18's that would hold 225, but my favorite was a 9X18 that I could stack 300 on, and still get in the shed. Those were some good days, but I don't want to do it now! 😂
😊😊😊😊

Holy moly! Suddenly it's 1956 middle of Iowa hotter than the hubs of hell and NO breeze. Riding the hay rack trying to stand up as the bales slowly came up the shute. Used wire in those days always handy to fix stuff with. 50 cents per hour end of day fore arms raw from the stickers. Keeping balance used 2 years later in Navy. Good times.
Brings back memories ty
Been busy, good to be back, over 35 years since the small square era. ❤❤😊😊 John T.
I'm so envious of this, bailed hay when I was a kid, didn't appreciate it then but I do now. I could watch that all say long. Thanks for the video
Great video for sure love small square baling.....
I’m 68 I used to be on a farm back 60’s and 70’s. I can remember, it was always hot and humid. Then who was going to be on the wagon and who was going to be in the barn? I miss those days. Now I live in a condo. Like they say. You take the boy out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the boy!
We had a Case 200 baler, hand stacked, 145 bales per wagon and 10,000 bales a year. Thanks for the memories!
t-rex, I am 75 and making hay in the 50's & 60's was hard work. Yes indeed, many memories. We had a Farmall M and IH baler (self propelled was very rare, v4 engine was a beast) no thrower. Aaron knows what he is doing.
When the bust bale came out you said the very same thing as I was thinking. Change of ball. We always had New Holland balers. They were good balers. Great video. All the best 🇬🇧.
I wish we had one of thoes when i was a young boy so much easyer than picking it up off the ground
How cool is that bale maker, but know farming hard work so thank you and all farmers for what you do
One thing about farming is every year is different. Nice looking hay even though it's a little bit late making it. Nice equipment. Y'all are good farmers. I enjoy watching the videos. Makes me miss my 575 with the thrower and eztrail wagons. I'm just round baling now. Thanks again for sharing the video.
Thank you for the video.
Sure brings back memories 😊 64 and bed ridden from a neck surgery that went bad, videos like these makes the days go by.
God Bless you and hope you heal well! 🙏🤞👍
Our prayers are with you, brother.
Sorry to hear of the situation, sending healing prayers. Glad there are videos from Gierok Farms that you can enjoy watching, oh the memories.
@@MorganOtt-ne1qj Thank you brother
@@alostpilgrimsjourney5953 thank you brother
Another great video!!
Awesome
I'm 76 and still square ballin, albeit only for a horse. BUT no kicker! Nothing so satisfying as seeing a full load of bales. Wait! They are not in the barn yet. Thanks, enjoyed the video.
Yeah, I switch baling that always happens to me when it switches ball "knotting on the knot" we always say. I like stacking that first cutting hay. It's more like block and less like marshmallows. Much bigger windows for a lot of us compared to last year for sure.
i appreciate the speed in which your moving. i baled with international baler and 11 to 13 bales a minute your makin jay
HOLY F!!! ive never seen a square baler SHOOT the bales like that!!! i had a new holland square baler that sorta lazyily pushed them out.
also im an expert stacker ;)
Great video, look like a lot of things done in a day
Nothing better than a baling video. Still make some little bales but not as many as we did 5 years ago. Would love to start making more again. Great vide
Great video George that is a very good bailer
I had a 273 hayliner it never missed a knot unless it was switching balls of twine.we would stack kick bale wagons with a hundred and thirty five to a load
Thanks for explaining this step in making hay. I would have made a pretty good hired man.
Thanks for the video
You guys know what your doing, keep up the great work!!💯🎯👍
Really great video. Thank you for sharing and I think that you are an expert at taking videos. Really entertaining!
Great video! Spend many hours riding tractor raking hay then unloading wagons onto elevator. Nothing smells better than freshly baled hay. Unloaded wagons till it was time to bring cows in for milking. Keep up the great work!
P.S. Hoping to get to go visit farm that I spent many summers at. Still going after all these years!
If you had a John Deere baler and bale thrower, you would feel like an NFL quarterback trying to hit a crossing receiver on those hills you have. 😂
Thanks
Nightmares of being a teenager seeing that first frame. I do miss it though
We have the same baler. Model older. Let that thing eat. High capacity. It's pulling hay in. Instead of getting feed in. Makes a nice bale when they have enough hay. Have a good one guys
I use to have to pick up the bales on the ground and throw the bales on to the trailer... Great exercise...
Corn looks great! you're wacking them out pretty good! we use to set a goal in the morning, like, OK, guys, we're going to do a thousand bales today, everybody be careful, but work fast! JD 620 and a new holland baler! run the wagons with the JD 530!
Had a good 214 but had to know everything about repairing it. When it was on couldn't beat it just like a Deere
You can’t beat New Holland bailers. We ran a 565. That one is a lot faster. You’re running the perfect ground speed. Making her eat. 👍
Wow you are definately NOT a flat land farmer LOL I've been watching your silage and now baleing videos you really have to watch your center of gravity !!!
Always great videos
All of our first crop was pretty late also.
I use to ride on the back side of balers sitting on the container box's that housed the bale string...
nice to see you got a break in the weather to get some hay done , have we seen that field before , i been watching for a long time but not seeing the road may be the reason I don't recognize it , lets hope the weather turns now to get some more done
This year sure has been a discouraging year for hay. I only managed to get a couple of loads baled. I lost over half of first cutting to rain that was not in the forecast until it showed up on radar. What's left to cut will feed out like cardboard with no chance of a third cutting. Yesterday we go 4 inches of rain. Next chance of clear weather is a week away.
can,t beat those nh balers i have 76 /77/ 570 the 76 has been in neghbourhood all its life
👍👍
I remember hay baler like that and now we use the big round balers
Wow that bailer is like a Cadillac!! Nice looking hay! What's the weight on your bales?
Yeah, we got about 6000 pills off of 45 acres on first crop, it is Brom in with the alfalfa, after that, we got 3000 bales on the second crop and 2000 bales on the third crop. Open central, Minnesota, Lowry, Minnesota where the millennial farmer is, if you watched a millennial farmer and always fancy John Deere equipment. His home place is 1 mile from my home place. He makes more money on his RUclips channel then he does actually farming and has over 1 million subscribers. But I like your channel better because it’s pretty much the way we did things when I was growing up, we had a 268 new Holland baler, my brother drove the tractor, and I rode the rack. Our barn was 35 x 60 and it held 5000 bales 16 layers thick in the haymow. We saved a room for second crop on the north end, because we ground a lot of alfalfa to put in with our pig feed for the sows especially. We had turned an old chicken coop into farrowing house using two by fours. Wayfair at nine sales in September and nine sales in November.
What type of Hay preserver are you using? I see the yellow tank, it must spray the incoming hay before squeeze.
Should have put the Ole black stripe on the baler
New Holland, Allis Chalmers, John Deere. Semper fidelis, USMC 🇺🇸.❤.
We used a Heston stacker 3 tons n wire, no twine all loose almost always worked at night, the swather ran in the daylight, heaviest thing I picked up was a hydraulic leaver
Wow, baling 24 hours after mowing. I cut with a mower conditioner, ted it a day or two later, wait another 24 hours at least and ted it again, wait another day, rake it and then bale.
I make round bales about 600 pounds.
How many mph are you bailing
Did small squares late sixtys to mid seventies
You still have one of the older balers too
No matter what my uncle did , about every 100th bale broke lol
Are you in SW WI? It kinda looks like that area. We are located in East Central WI west of Fond du Lac.
How many bales per acre? Thanks for the video!
What’s caused you to switch from IH to Deere tractors?
I'm 67 and still bale every yr with my.3 times rebuilt 1973 NH 315 wire tie with accumulator....gets harder.as I get older with the heat...
Jw how come u guys have the tounge of the baler in while ur on the road?
Are you guys running the baler right at the 540 pto speed?
So was the jd 450
would round bales be more efficient?
