I'm getting set up for haying on our small farm, and have recently acquired a bunch of old hay equipment - a NH 467 Haybine, a NH 257 rake, and a NH Super Hayliner s68 baler. Way back when when I was working on a hay farm as my summer job during high school, I seem to remember we only really used a tedder to kick out rows that had been rained on. On our own farm when I was growing up, we didn't have a tedder and we made decent hay. I have not made hay for more than 25 years, so I have a lot of re-learning to do.
So, do I really need a tedder, or can I get by without one? How and when are they best used? Thanks!
