2014 Hay Season

It sure didn't take it long to cure out. I did ted it at 10am this morning and started baling at 5pm. It still made better than I figured,I was thinking 30 and it made 34 almost 35. They moved rain from Tuesday to later week wish I would have went ahead and cut the rest now.

Isn't that how it always goes

I brought in 97 5x4 this week. That should get me thru the winter. Put 70 in a barn of a friend and just finished tarping the rest.

Just baled up 3rd and last cutting of alfalfa. I'm pleased with this years crop. 18.5 acres produced 96 5x5.5 bales (I have the 567 set to tie at 66 inches). 25 first cutting, 49 second and 22 third cutting today.

The 7040 looks good with that batwing behind it.
