While I'm checking oils, servicing machinery, warming up engines, watching my bottom line, being efficient, put water in the tyres. I wait for you mate. Keep up the great work mate from New Zealand.
I'm not a farmer. However, when you see the difference between the machines, it's crazy how different they are. The bales the barron produces are amazing. I can see the uses for both machines. However, if I was in your shoes, I would choose a barron for sure. Also, the speed and maintenance differences are really shocking. A operation probably makes up the cost difference in just the greasing of the machine alone.
Really enjoyed this video! You did a great job explaining and clearly showed the difference between the two machines. Thanks hope to see more in the future
We are in n.e. Oklahoma. We are in the market for a bale bundler. Very informative video. Thanks for taking the time. Answered many questions about both machines.
WOW ! Great explanation and great video. Thank you team for staying back and shooting this. This video is like no other and will be a true asset to see what small square bale producers try out for bundling and what works for their operation. I think Barons are going to serve you guys well. I think you guys going from Thrower racks, to Arcusin to Baron really is remarkable when it comes to your operation. I think i remember the hay kings podcast you saying something along the lines of "the production of small square bales is a game changer when it comes to bundling" (
I appreciate your support! I was hoping that with this video many would see and be able to appreciate the differences in both machines. There are 100% operations where the arcusin is a great choice and operations where the baron is a better choice. We tried really hard to not be overly negative or positive towards a machine. Just show it how it is. The speed trial was a little hard to watch but there is more to these machines than speed
Good job, really like this type of video. But one has to keep in mind their operation. You did good at pointing that out. No one would dispute which one will get the job done faster. But the expense for the machine, the larger tractor, the larger handing equipment is huge as well. The weight would not work for our ground as well. Many fields would be to steep unless they come equipped with braking. Then we get to the middle row mold issues on the three layer bundles. Lots to consider beyond speed.
Great comparison of the two machines...I think you did justice to both of them in a tasteful way.. barons look like they will work great in your operation..I've heard of issues in the 21 bale bundles with moisture as well so I look forward to the video on that in the future.. keep up the good work ..there are so many small fundamental details built into your system that are overlooked that pay off big time when you get to the kind of scale you guys have.. awesome to see
I can see how the baron would definitely be better in your situation where you have flat fields and crazy amount to get done but in our oddly shaped and hilly Fields and our smaller operation having a cheaper to buy and smaller tractor to run it make the arcusin right for our operation
Baron makes bundles that fit the equipment hauling the product. They utilize almost every cubic foot a trailer offers. Not too wide, notto tall, and fill to the rear doors of a 53 foot van. Unless you ship nothing the accumulators are OK. The Bale Bandit uses wire straps that are forbidden on construction reclamation jobs. Loading BB bundles with the large strings exposed allows you to pull three bundles out at a time, keeping heavy unloading equipment off your trailer.
Kind of funny to see someone else running a setup so similar to ours. We’re running a Bale Baron 4245p pulled by a Massey Ferguson 8732S. We’re in Illinois and I’ve never seen someone else running a Bale Baron anywhere near us
This has been the video I've been waiting for! We are looking at switching from our 10 wagon's to a bundle machine. Our biggest hold back is the quality of hay that comes out of the bundle after sitting in the barn. Guys around here are running acid on dry hay ( 10- 12%) to keep it from dusting since that middle row in the Barron bundle can't breathe. What have you seen with quality of hay? We are in MD so we can have some humid summers.
With the arcusins we ran dry preservative and were pretty fine with 15-17% hay. 18-19% jab occasionally didn’t make us nervous. With the baron we sprinkle preservative all the time and will not bale above 15%. Honestly 15% makes us a pinch uncomfortable. We are making some changes to our preservative program tho so I am hoping to see better results at some higher moisture
We have 4 customers that changed to the Arcusin Bale Bundler because their middle row got too much moisture and when the end customers received the 21 bale package and opened it, it was ruined! They are now doing 14 bale packages and will never go back to the 21. For your info, the E14 model that has been designed for the American market it is very different than the old model that Jeff is showing in the video! Which by the way, the machine is not well adjusted at all!
@@blancacusine9580 Arcusin technicians came out and adjusted the machines. The one day they spent close to 10 hours with us riding on all 3 machines. If we are doing this in the spirit of fairness, which we have tried to maintain the entire time. We’ve never made adjustments to the barons.
Really interesting. We currently use a manual 14 bale packer (very labour intensive and slow) and I have looked at the Arcusin as our next step up. So very interesting to see your review and comparison to the Bale Barron. Thanks for sharing 👍
My boss has run both bale baron and arcusin. He bought the arcusin becuase that was what he could afford. In a lot of his work you need the manuvurability of the arcusin. He preferred the bale baron as it feeds better.
It would be interesting to see how much slower a "non high capacity" Baron would be. This Baron that you had can definitely pump out the bales and am curious what the performance differences are for them between the different models i.e. 4250 model
I was wondering the same thing, obviously this is a comparison of what they chose to do on their farm but I'd like to see an arcusin vs 4250p. The only baron near me is a 4250, I've bought and sold a lot of baron bundles and man are they sweet to handle. I just converted over to a Norden system but hope to go to an arcusin in the future just don't like the idea of adding another pass through the field.
@@FarmingInsider you'd have to find a 'pickup' attachment for the Bandit. I think they are all 'Trail' models. I think I would say the Arcusin might beat the Bandit..... haha. Make it Happen @FarmingInsiderFarmTrials !
@@hammerhayllc field pickup can be bought directly from the manufacturer. I can consistently run a bale every 6 seconds through my bandit and it's 20 years old....
@@FarmingInsider I only have a 75 acre hay field and have been looking at going to the arcusin just for the cost effective side or a older used baron. Thanks for sharing your time
*"tractors are for pulling stuff"* really is that simple so at the end of the day ditch the side by side for a 25hp TYM et al for pulling out ye olde 4 wheeled flat bed to load Your Perfect Bales is how I interpret that the most important comment made here as that's where the literal and proverbial *"rubber hits the road"* or hay product meets the consumer as a work product. Yes having high output big iron...with proper tire and rim needs noting (Mercedes Unimog by way of something different) but I agree in the end you're by that massive machine for highly specific type of work unless and until an acceptable array of implement attachments be created. The attachments issue is simply not an issue for a 25hp tractor same said be true of the MB Unimog ... speaking of science and the importance of *EVIDENCE* as needed to validate *ANY* hypothesis no matter how seemingly trivial.
Basically it comes down to ground pressure and how much you can lift onto a trailer. My understanding is you can snatch up the BB packs with the more common direct clamp-flip bale collectors.
So use a vertical grapple as I do. This eliminates the sag. I am very familiar with barron and would never go back to it. Clean one out after a bad bundle and you will agree. Also your bales are pushing the length. We stayed at 32". The E series Arcusin has 4 strings.
Great content, and an interesting subject for farmers like me, thanks, you don't sound or act like a farmer , did you grow up on a farm? anyway , best of luck .
Did you guys consider hooking a Barron on behind the baler to replace a man and tractor ? That’s how most are run around here 20 mins away from marcrest
Lot more productive to run multiple balers and one single baron versus coupling the baron to the baler, not to mention less stress on the baler not pulling the baron and the ability to run a baron off a PTO pump with a tractor with less than stellar hydraulics versus having to have a pretty new pretty big tractor to have the hydraulics to run the baron to bale with. Once you have multiple balers running, the extra labor to run the baron on a separate tractor is more than offset by only owning one baron and running multiple balers per baron.
Although your "test" was very informative....... We used a Bale Bandi.....when we first started in business.......Though the Bandit is an excellant machine..... there s no comparison with the Baron.......Plus the banding is over $300.00 bucks a spool x2..........Ours as a 5250 T with a 3 point Hydralic kit in front of a MF 1840 in line.....That is a Smoot point because we operate mainly a Round to square under a shed rebale straight into a trailer.......We are a iddy biddy,, rinky dink operation....
@@FarmingInsider would be really infrared to see you guys getting an e14 on demo that would be a more upto date comparison. I think the baron would still win but maybe not trash the arcusin
How do y'all sell yalls hay and straw? Do y'all have wholesale contracts or do y'all sell to other farms (and equine facility's)? Seems like alot of volume to have to market. Not looking for yalls precise numbers or anything just curious
Do you know what your cost is to turn your big squares into small squares? We’re hay producers in western canada and are looking to change some stuff. Also does the silo king leave a residue in the bale? (White powder or anything like that?
@@FarmingInsider we run bale bandit 100 model have for about 10yrs now. Great machine when they work right. Banding is extremely expensive now. I think its over a $1.00 per lb now. 2 roles only get you about 2500 to 2600 bales. Stick to twine its probably much cheaper one would assume.
Yea why not show the true ARCUSIN ADVANTAGE that the Arcusin can bundle bales at different length by any baler in your fleet that is two string. Something the baron lacks in a big way. We tested the ARCUSIN on balers from 1948-2020 and found the ARCUSIN the different bale lengths and chamber sizes fine. Baron failed as soon as bales had 3 inches difference in length. Because every farmer has someone who speed bales helping on operation or doesn’t have man power or extra equipment to run multiple Balers at the same time. Great Video you just didn’t use enough variables. So many different ways to make different size bales with so many Different baler manufactures.
I do touch on that at the end. The baron will only tolerate about a 30-37 inch bale from our experience. That is a huge advantage for the arcusin, but the different bale lengths don’t really apply to us, so I didn’t make it a huge deal. This was geared to our operation
@@FarmingInsider you didn’t touch on chamber size the bale baron will not handle 12x14 or 19x19 inch chamber sizes. Pretty much have to buy an in-line Massey baler to run a baron. Arcusin fits all balers and now with release of the E 14 the three string bales are included. If you’re going to be scientific, you got a put all the variables in. Kind of like project farm does.

As far as different chambers, I do not believe that is achievable all in the same field and machine. The machines chamber would need adjusted to hold the bales up if the terrain is at all rough

I work on everything that bales for 34 years and yet to see anything that can bundle anything put to it. The New Holland Compact 65 bale had to adjust back gate in for 12x16 inch bale size. I’ve worked on lots of bale barons and they jam quick if bales don’t stay one size. The side hills of Waverly New York the ARCUSIN handles with ease. Bale baron find the wet spots and sinks fast. If it’s hook to the baler say bye bye to your bale chamber when you hit the many wet spots on the side hills.
