The best time to bale alfalfa hay is at night when the hay is taking on dew. I always baled at night from about 11-12pm to sunrise and until the hay starts to lose leaves. The quality of the alfalfa hay was MUCH better with night time baling.
I like baling at night time as well! Something about seeing tractor lights in a field I really enjoy. Recently though the humidity sets in so fast here in Nebraska that we can only really bale until 9 o'clock before the hay gets too wet. Just one of those things you got to role with the punches. Thanks for the comment!!!
