    With a V rake like that I actually started doing the headlands last, it works good cause you don’t wreck your end rows. Take care

    I worked in the oil refining industry for forty years. I have seen and collaborated with individuals who excel in their God given capabilities. I have watched your TH-cam videos and You Sir are a special individual who (Kip) is blessed with those special talents to be a FARMER. You are not the only one out there, there thousands more like you that make this country work. You and all the others have my thanks and gratitude for your endless hard work.

    Tim from Canada… you can tell the American, Walmart, you people have great respect for your Walmarts… come to Canada you will never get that much stuff at the Walmarts in Canada. It is sad on the watch. They try to sell at Canadian Walmarts. American Walmarts are much better.

  • @michaelwood5327
    @michaelwood5327 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Kip check Sonne farms bailing, They got a JD attachment on the baler, allows you to drop the bales in a line it saves loading time.

  • @tomadelsberger6101
    @tomadelsberger6101 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like that you drive on the bare spot keeps tractor from getting hay dragging underneath plus all the hay gets turned Do you spread manure on hay crop between cuttings The peat looking lot by the barn would be great 👍

  • @calebweaver3628
    @calebweaver3628 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That 4430 will out live everything on that farm. You’ll trade everything else off a couple times over and that 4430 will still be going down and back. 😃

  • @karloarsch1579
    @karloarsch1579 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Interesting to hear about these tractors, the 6420 has 110 hp, the old lady has 145! But it obviously shows that these 110 hp are used more efficiently, after all there are almost 40 years of development between them.

  • @brentwoodrumfarms9236
    @brentwoodrumfarms9236 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Are you sure that is a power shift?-p-shift lust goes a notch forward -no clutch like 1-12 - I know you can shift or slao it over and back but have to clutch to go to next gear right? great video thx

  • @paulprigge1209
    @paulprigge1209 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think I misunderstood. You’re not done Putting up hay this year are you? Second cuttings? Or does it all go to Haylage?Regardless thank you for the video. We’ve been blessed with rain finally. Tri-state area Illinois Missouri Iowa.Thanks for the video. God bless

  • @rdyardie
    @rdyardie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I don't know if it is a rumour or not but my son-in-law said that round bales might be banned in Oklahoma. . . . it seems that the cows just could not get a square meal. 🤣

  • @TheRealJesseStoltzfus
    @TheRealJesseStoltzfus ปีที่แล้ว

    Curious as to why you wouldn’t start with your long rows in the middle, especially if you’re going to be waiting for a while on the baler?

  • @georgequinn5762

  • @raymondscott8584
    @raymondscott8584 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice hay Kip. Thanks for bringing us along. Have you folks ever considered a bale accumulater? Check out the one Sonne Farms uses. Sure improves their efficiency. Let’s them drop everything in a line for much faster pick up.

  • @crazyheadgideon
    @crazyheadgideon 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Dear mr Siegler, could you pls not cut of footage at the moment it’s the most interesting. So, let us see the moment a round bail exits the bailer!!!! We’re the audience. Those moments are the finest. (folding/unfolding machinery). Keep on doing

    @zeke92493 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Question. I haul animal feed commercially to many operations with 5000-10000 head of cows. Most have a commodity shed with between 10-18 specific ingredients. You don’t have this on your farm and still have healthy, happy cows that I presume give 100lbs/day, what gives?

  • @patrickdeutsch6101
    @patrickdeutsch6101 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    On the 30 and 40 series sound guard style tractors if you're using a single acting cylinder (rake lift and maybe the haybine lift) you could hook it up to the left port of number 2 outlet (right side scv) and to lower it you can just put it in float and you don't have to hold the lever to let it down. Just a suggestion to streamline your turnarounds.
