Nice pictures!...and you have some cute kids.
Thank, it is good to know that I am not the only one that thinks that LOL
I always look forward to hay season, but i dread putting it up in the barn.
That's nice country in Wisconsin!
Do you deer hunt ?
No, I don't like venison
I have been there 5 times when i use to drive a truck, and i delivered tractors to different dealers in Wisconsin... and i always enjoyed going there.
What kind of tractors did you deliver and where to?
How much does your large bales weigh ?
~700#
Thanks for sharing your pictures!
Duffster, do you wrap these bales ?
No, but they have a fair amount of preservative on them.
It looks much greener than the haylage we wrap... maybe its because you guys mostly grow alfalfa mixtures ?
This was kind of strange circunstances for us.
The hay was cut just before dark in the evening, the next day was cloudy, the next was a perfect drying day but cool then the day we baled we had a sprinkle at Noon.
This hay was rake at ~5pm and baled after 7 pm just in front of a large storm.
And are these 3x3 bales ?
Yes
Another factor that might make it possible to bale greener hay is that the Dutch climate near the sea, is much more moist, than in the N.A. plains. Over here it rots much quicker
