I had a squeeze on a hay farm once, but her dad didn’t like us ranch boys coming around.
The newer trailers with the smooth interior lining makes it a lot easier to unload. I had an old plywood lined van and it took forever to get unloaded like that!
I never thought in a million years that u could put giant hay bales into an enclosed trailer! Very cool!
Nice job polishing the wooden floor on the trailer!
Hopefully the sides of the trailer are mostly smooth!
As a student of history, this channel is another great example of why centrally planned economies fail. Like a lot of commodities, there isn't just timothy, clover, grass, alfalfa, etc. Within in each there are so many grades, varieties, etc. Imagine some buearcrat in Moscow trying to understand and price all that.
That pusher looks like it's from an episode COPS. You could bust a lot of doors down with that.
Lol
Very interesting. I'd been wondering how and where the hay was shipped. Always enjoy you videos. Your brother sure could use a haircut! Ha ha!
Every episode "I don't usually do this but..." and that's why we tune in to see what Trevor is doing today!
Good show
I see what you did there Trevor...😂 He drives a truck, His last name is Bales. The quality of the hats are big PP. 😮😂🎉❤
Great video Trevor cheers from Greg in Australia 🇦🇺 😊
LOL my 1st year cutting of my new four grass mix was horrible. We had a drought so the only thing that grew was orchard grass so I had to dock it 50% from the second cutting that looked beautiful.
Them stacks is all your forklift want ass end light 👍
I have seen a few comments to go digital with load tickets.. what if you simply hold the ticket up to the hay and take a picture of it on your phone. That way you have a “record” of the slip you filled out and what grade of hay it is, your picture can be your back up for if the slip gets lost. Just a thought
I’ve thought about that. But we go though over 1,200 truck loads a year, it would get difficult to keep up on my phone. The best would be a barcode system. At the end of the day, it would a full time job.
Love watching your content. I grew up in California and my dad would haul hay down from Nevada. Seeing the squeeze reminds me a lot of those trips. Two Pete's, twin 24 footers, and a squeeze usually took the trip.
Back when fuel was affordable enough to bring the squeeze 😂
Will diesel ever go down? 😭
Trevor, set it up on an iPad, to record all your details, then send it to the office. Paper work is 10 years behind the times.
I’ve been thinking about an iPad. My other problem is, I use yellow legal pads, so does everyone else. Then I set it down and I lose it. But then you can’t “search” notes on pads of paper. I can search on an iPad or laptop. Then I could keep inventories on hand. I don’t know. It’s difficult. It gets so hot, electronics stop working. My phone shuts down often. My camera does too.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch Do you have good comms across your agricultural area? If so then talk to some people about how to improve your ability to designate hay, send it to the right shed, to sell it to the right customer. UPS, solve the power outages, the right messages get to the right people on time every time. Don't be frightened of the technology, for its significantly better than it was 5 years ago.
Love the show HAYMAN!
Tom!!!
Ah!, good stuff. 👍👍✌️☕️😎
Couple weeks ago my sister north of AustinTx. bought hay at a feed store 3 bales alfalfa 2 Timothy. Paid $146 for 5 bales. Her husband guessed they weighed 60-70lbs. PRICEY!!!
Wow
Easy log book fix. Get your forms in triplicate and keep a copy for you!
Easier said than done.
Engine in the squeeze sounds like ready to tear things apart.
We decided to offer our Customers some choice. so went Upstate and bought some nice Alfafa........ We almost can't give it away....... Most "Southern horse" folks really have been feeding Hybrid Bermuda grass for years, so they know what to expect.......Pluss economical reasons also play a part........We primarily Round Bale, store and Re-bale, because the bundles going into the trailer for delivery to TSC stores have a better appearance than stored bales or bundles..........Just small time............... For Now!!!!
Ugggg that’s tough. Sorry.
Dierks Bentley is from Phoenix, too bad you couldnt get him. the only thing is you would have to sell alot more hay.
Awesome video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Ah the trials of farming variable ground. I only learnt this week how useful the chickweed is to sheep. Not all weeds are bad. Lot of issues are customer prejudices?
Never heard of Chancey Williams “the big guy”. Does he sing rap or hip hop??
That Pusher thing looks like you could string lights on it and drive it around Burning Man Either that or something out of Mad Max.
I have a question. On your fields you run a Lazer to level everything right. But on you slopes (down worth)how much do you have for a slope? So your water doesn’t go to fast or to slow down worth?
Ha. Great question! We actually don’t change the down fall very much to fight that. There are some pretty “steep” fields. To combat that, we make the area we irrigate more narrow. The steeper the field, the more narrow the area you can irrigate. We’re following the natural fall of the land. It would be very expensive to move that much dirt. In some cases, people have done that. But in most, us, and others do the best with what we have. Some areas are EXTREMELY flat and it looks like a lake when we irrigate.
ILL FEED THAT HAY ANYDAY! ITS EAST TO PICK OUT THE WEEDS TO SAVE 4 BUCKS A BALE!
I agree with you.
👍
And one for the algos..'Hey, there's hay all over the place!
Lol thanks!
How many worker do you have operating a big farm like that??
Huhhhh. 30 this time of year. And that isn’t enough some days.
Was you making the trip to Decatur Illinois to hangout with the millennial farmer.
I hear his brand new planter will be on display there.
Nope. Not going that direction any time soon
How many days does it take to get it off the field from cutting? Ours we rake on day 4 and then bale day 5 and 6. We’re lucky to get off in 100 hours or under. Here in southern Alberta. We rarely ever get hay that green here since we grow more mature crops and the dew effects bleaching. Also we used to load 3x4 bales like that into vans but haven’t done that in years
Oh man, 72 hours in the summer.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch ok that’s what we were guessing. There is area around us that are alot worse in regards to that. This year has been a record drought too so pivots and irrigation are the only fields with crops/hay. 10 counties within 2 hours are considered agriculture disaster areas. Tough for us since we run alfalfa cubing plant and basically have no hay to buy or at absolutely rediculous prices now
@@Brobro449 holy smokes! That is terrible!
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch haha we’re just happy to have irrigation on years like this. Can still grow good crops just finished combining a barley field that did 155 bushel an acre and 48 pounds on 116 acres and about 30 acres is underlines we only did a few times this year. Other guys are doing like 10-30 bushel on dryland
Ha do you separate weed hay from high grade I've been doing that for years and my dad says I'm wasting my time but I get a lot more for my horse hay and it don't take long I handle ever bale anyway so it just a matter of throwing it on a different side of the barn.
It depends. If the entire field is weedy, then it’s all discounted. If it’s spots, the stacker separates them and there will be one or two weedy stacks out of the entire field. Then I put those weedy stack’s somewhere else. It’s extremely important to do in the retail business.
Could you take a picture of your tickets and keep them in a separate file in your phone..?
Uuuggggg that would be terrible. But maybe.
You said “solid #2”.
Lol.
If your ticket book was a carbon copy style, you’d have a built in record book.
The tickets are. I’m thinking about going to a small laptop.
How many bales per Trailer?X $=?
392 bales
I definitely would not want to be in on off loading by hand
Is a hay pusher anything like a drug pusher?
Lol yes
What happen to your dodge ? I see your driving a Ford
The 1991 single cab dodge? I’ve never had a personal dodge pickup.
Paper work is never fun
Get a pulldozer…
I want to actually see you working as to sitting on your butt driving around doing nothing. 🤣🤣🤣
🚜🚜🚜
Your log book issue sounds like nothing more than plain laziness to be honest. How hard is it to write something in a book. Come on man if you would not accept it of your employees don't accept it of yourself.😎.
Have you tried filling out a log been while driving down a road? When 4 drivers are standing outside in 115 plus degrees and your AC isn’t working and you have 15 plus loads to make, plus 20 phone call, and 5 problems to solve. It’s really east to say it’s laziness when you watch from a screen.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch have you ever tried running g a cardiac arrest and treating two or three other critical
patients, well as a paramedic I have come on dude excuses won't get it done , a will to
Do it and some time management or if two much for one put more men on the job delegate some responsibility. You can do it Trevor.👍
@@jerry-fu7yb lol. I get what you are saying. It’s easy to attribute things laziness when you aren’t there watching it. I run this pace all day, 6 and 7 days a week, 8+ months. I’m not saying what you did isn’t a lot at one time. But is it non stop all day every day? You can’t delegate when there is no one to delegate to. We used to be able to hire people ready to work. Now I tip toe around employees hoping they don’t quit. I can only do so much. And right now I’m doing the job of 3 men and trying to make some videos.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch laziness might of been to harsh a term sorry dude. I guess you just have the busiest
job in the world😁😁 lol. Have a good week can't wait to see the next video 🍺🍺.
@@jerry-fu7yb haha. I’m not saying that. But I am saying, calling a guy lazy from watching a video is cool. Sorry, I’m venting. I’m having a bad.
Typical farmer always complaining if it’s not the weather it’s price 🥲🥲🥲🥲
Yep. Typical farmer.
👍
