July 3 The driverless portion is near the end. We tackle both conventional and rotary straw. I didn't think the difference would be that big, but animals will poop on anything.
Hey Cousin. Aunt Bert told me about your channel. I'm happy for you. On that same note, I'd rather take a beating than ever bail hay again. Especially alfalfa. Hope your dad is still getting better. Lots of love.
We had wheat straw one year that got ground up really bad from our 2388. Instead of using our new holland baler we got our neighbor to come over with his inline case baler that has a much lower pickup attachment. That really made the difference in getting as much material picked up as possible.
Use a bar type rake, only hit the sides to fluff it up towards the middle, you'll need to make 2 passes per swath I'm afraid. We've had to do that before. If you have a wheel rake, that would be better, just need to adjust to make a tight windrow. This is the issue with rotaries. Before we got a round baler, we did nothing but small square bales. Did brome, straw, clover, alfalfa, always ended up with around 20k - 30k small squares each yr. Lot of "barn work" lol. Great video, cheers :)
I now think the big reason that we always had so much trouble baling straw was the fact that we always followed a rotary combine(atleast as far back as I can remember). Never realised the big difference, between straw walker and rotary.
The auto pilot adventures from Brad and yourself was extra exciting to watch. I don’t think Brad would get so hot if he got rid of that birds nest on his chin 😂
My granddad used to buy square baled wheat straw for mulching his strawberry fields 1960's works great for moisture retention and weed suppression those strawberries were irrigated also..
We did the driverless method in off-loading hay in a lot. We draped a chain through the steering wheel to keep it on course. Steering was direct linkage, no power steering. Yea, ... OSHA approved ;-)
Axial flow combines usually produce straw like that when the concave is closed, the rotor is run flat out and the fan is turned up. Usually by people who don’t bale as it’s the most productive way to thresh the grain out of the straw, you just rely on the fan to separate it, it makes spreading and post harvest incorporation easy too
@@Northern_Farmer I've had twin rotors since 1995, when we did custom combining the guys liked the straw better from the TR then they did my John Deere walker machines. It made better bedding in the barn. Only straw the TR would destroy was barley, or oats that had alfalfa in it
I’m glad to see you’re protecting you neck and ears from burning 🥵 I like your Hat! Thanks for sharing another fun farm adventure with Brad and yourself! Stay safe and keep well!!! Brad needs a better hat to protect him too! That Baseball hat doesn’t quite do the trick
I also noticed a long sleeve shirt. ( Very good!) I have experiment with wearing thin cotton cloths that cover well. Along with good hat, sunglasses and ear plugs. It's amazing how less tired I get. Especially after work during the evening. With none of the above. I am absolutely zonked!! After a days work. 👍
This is exactly how it goes! Just like Theodore Roosevelt said "' Do the best you can where you are with what you have'' I do it every day 😊 Enjoyed the video 👍
I instinctively waved to bandit, lol. I bet those bales from the axial flow will crumble up really nice and make some great bedding for your hutches. I was thinking of using a truck but maybe with a driver 😂. Nice load on that Beauty of a Ford.
He said in the vid that they took the spreaders off, SO by that I presume the machine had the spinners on back not a chopper. If they ran it through a chopper it'd be nothing but duff and the baler wouldn't even pick it up. Rotary combines fairly well demolish the straw before it goes out the back anyway. Cylinder/concave machines are much gentler on the straw. Later! OL J R :)
Nice looking bales fellas, I could hear what sounds like a broken spring on the far right set of feeder tines. Do yourselves a favor & look it over soon before something gets wrecked.
I was watching Don when his belt broke on the 3rd. If you watch straight pipe acres in canada, he is replacing all his belts but one. Some of his belts look like they came with the combine. I think one chain actually did. Lots of swearing on his channel so beware.
Case combines dont make good straw, much easier other brands you can remove chopper oit of the way, when we have people bale atraw behind our 7230 we cut it high then they come back and cut it down, but i take fine cut knives out helps but a chopper at 3000 rpms won't be much left, we cut a lot of our wheat at 15 to 20% helps on the atraw but hence the reason why we cut it high and they come back
Is it possible to fill one wagon to its safe loading, then fill it all the way with bales from the second wagon, using the bales on wagon two as stairs so you could build wagon one higher, it would be double handling for a number of bales but it mean that you could load one wagon to the weight limit and not have to stack acrobatically whilst moving ?
I like the pirate ..Yes I know bandit is on tour with the Rolling Stones .I would have burned the midnight oil and got belts off parts combine. You or the pirate could have finished up ,would have made good video Maybe next time
imagine the 1st hay bailer designers /builder Australia sunshine harvesters - started in Ballarat Vic then moved to sunshine Melbourne hwy 8👍 a BIT HISTORY Here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunshine_Harvester_Works
They went to the same college. Brad helps when he can, use to be more but he's got his own farm now to tend too. Jacob is lucky to have a good friend that's willing to work.

Dad is doing better, but he'll have surgery on the elbow and wrist next month.

That's the difference between a walker machine and a rotor machine. The case combine really chopped it up fine with the rotor. Have a great afternoon
That rotary straw can be a pain to bale,but those bales will make awesome bedding bales!!
I told him I would've brought up my 4420, lol. Only a 2 hr drive by combine

Good job! You got lots straw off that field. Run Brad Run lol 👍👍

They didn't take the chopper knifes out that's why it's so fine. I run a 1680 case and it doesn't chew it up that bad

If the straw is bone dry, it can chew it up more. That is chopped up pretty bad
My twin rotor combines are the same..thats why I have a John deer 9600 for straw
rotorie combines makes the straw much finer than ah walker combine

Put the truck in 1 or 2 an low 4 that works for a good pace!
18:45 go brad go!!!

Axial flow will make a finer straw by nature, but his chopper is what turned it to confetti like that

White straw is slightly lighter than hay,
but it is sharper against cuticles.
The worst thing, however, is rye straw.
Really nice quiet baler looks pretty new. What year is it? I have a older 276 NH bought new in 1972. I like your videos keep them coming.
The wrench is a Swedish invention,
but the only thing it can do is make bolts and nuts round.
@BWM Crescent?
Lol awesome! Brad gets it done
nice hat for protection against the sun
the Wheat- Beans, corn rotation was very popular down in Virginia..

You guys are certainly not slackers.
You always have interesting videos!
Thank you
@@boehmfarm4276 Do you still have the roto-vator for sale? Not sure if you saw the comment I left on that video :)
Great video gotta love baling straw
much OSHA
many violations
so awesome
Perhaps you need a rotary rake to rake after the rotary combine? 😂
Sweat,blood and gears
I hope you bought Brad a case of beer afterward

Problem is how do you get it in the barn when its stacked that high?? Doors usually ain't that high. Later! OL J R : )
RAre you all planning to attend any farming shows in the next 12 months?
How many bales did it take to make your hat ???
I like the pirate ..Yes I know bandit is on tour with the Rolling Stones .I would have burned the midnight oil and got belts off parts combine. You or the pirate could have finished up ,would have made good video Maybe next time
Every farmer is their own captain. I was all about using old belts and turning a wrench too help. But I'll let Bandit so his thing.
That straw obviously never got raked
That s a lot of straw, I guess Bandit will be discing soon. Thanks Jacob.
Thanks guys
When you see bandit for the first time on a visit does he say “well hi there guys.”?
Unfortunately, no. He throws out a, "hey, Jacob, what are you up to?"
NICE LOOKING BAILER
imagine the 1st hay bailer designers /builder Australia sunshine harvesters - started in Ballarat Vic then moved to sunshine Melbourne hwy 8👍
a BIT HISTORY Here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunshine_Harvester_Works
when did you guys get the Oliver this is the 1st time ive seen it
Look up Bandit Farmer, it's his.
Just about time you show a real tractor😂 What model oliver was it? I couldn't quite catch it.
1550 utility.
@@boehmfarm4276 nice, that thing should go almost 20 mph then I think
Baled straw after many axial flows and in the end still got plenty of straw and it actually will spread out a lot nicer when its chewed up
I though maybe u were going to use bandits ford baler
A rartor mades a mess of straw
I’ll be over for hotdogs and hamburgers July 4😅❤️🌭🍔
It’s all about the chopper nothing to do with the rotor
u and brad partner up together? boilers?
They went to the same college. Brad helps when he can, use to be more but he's got his own farm now to tend too. Jacob is lucky to have a good friend that's willing to work.
Too bad his truck isn’t a 5 speed or newer with the L gear just crawl along, maybe if he put it in 4L it’s help haha
The only issue with 4L is the torque ratio. It'll be two easy for the truck to speed up on its own.
u almost said shit lmao
Mexican metric wrench.
👍👏👏👏
👍👌🇨🇦❤
It is pronounced Shmootz lol
nice hat for protection against the sun
