- This may be the last video of the year. My wife and I came down with COVID, and I haven't been to the farm in over a week! I hope to have even better content for you guys this next year. A lot of exciting things to come! We'll be getting more H2A guys, which means I won't be stuck in a squeeze or semi so much, and will get some great shots for you.
Blessings to everyone in 2022! It's going to be a good one. God bless!

I would love to drive those vehicles. Thanks for showing us!
Thanks for watching!
Brian is a very serious person
Always!
That’s some good lookin alfalfa hay👌👌I can almost smell it threw the camera 😂
I hope Covid doesn’t make you and your wife too ill, speedy recovery!
Thank you! I’m back to almost normal. Feeling great!
Just got back to you-------------Get & Stay Well.
Yes enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing with us
Amazing the speed you go and the pick up doesn't leave much more.
Seasons Greetings for Christmas and the New Year to you and your family Trevor, along with your crew also. 🙏🙏👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
First of all. Sending Best Wishes to all of you for a nice Xmas and have a great holiday season.
Thanks for the rundown on the baler and steamer and the outfit that picks up the bales. Brian seems to be a no nonsense kind of person. Go get em Brian.
Interesting to see how the steamer and baler work together. Can see where you need the right kind of tractor to do the job. Nice units. You can cover a lot of ground with that setup.
Your gas storage tank turned out well. Looks good after all the troubles getting it done. Good job Treavor.
About it for now. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything.
The Iowa farm boy from years ago.
A good place for the air intake would be up above the cab with some piping and clamps to make sure it is well secured. Great video.
It seems to me that Brian is a no bullshit kind of guy! I love it
That's some beautiful hay
Hi Trevor bales.
I'm new to your Channel. Have very much enjoyed your videos that I watched so far. First time I've ever heard about steamers. I used to be a Dairy Farmer retired and I had 160 Acres of irrigated alfalfa. I farmed in North Dakota
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
You too!
Merry Christmas
Great Video!
Nice vid! merry Christmas to you and your family
Back in the 70s I was a new holland service manager in the northwest when NH came out with the 1069 Stack Cruiser. It was one of the first with a table that tied the bales and that system was triggered by a magnet passing by a trip. In the area where we were was volcanic soil which is- magnetic. After a few loads the tying system would quit working because the magnets would get loaded up with magnetic soil. It gave us nightmares.
That’s crazy! Who would have thought? That’s impossible to foresee that coming. Once you new the problem, was it an easy fix?
NH solution-clean the magnet area often. It was considered an extreme and unusual condition.
We began using onboard compressed air and blew them off. We also rerouted the air intake.
Man that tractor looks like a space 🚀 rocket 🚀......Merry Christmas, I pray that the birth of Jesus brigs you salvation and many blessings...
i hadnt really noticed before how fast you bale.That pickup reel looks crazy!
It really depends on the size of the windrow.
Congratulation on 30 thousands subscriber keep up good job enjoy your videos 👍😎🇺🇸🚜
Awww you noticed! Thank you.
GREAT VIDEO We have a beautiful horse farm here in central New Jersey My husband farms and grows our hay We are close to the ocean so its very hard to make hay as beautiful as yours We grow a lot of orchard grass and timothy mix When we want beautiful Alfalfa hay we get it from the west Can definitely see the need for the steamer when the hay rattles like that in the row Keep making that beautiful hay Oh G P M Gallons Per Minute
Horse farm on the ocean!! Sounds beautiful! And very cold this time of the year.
35 Go Power Machine.
😁
Them hay cruisers are very interested machines
That old guy is going to kick your ass. Lol love video
we're in snow so making hay I just weard
I enjoy your Channel very similar to millennial Farmers format makes it very interesting to watch thank you.
Thank you!
And flat. Like your videos big fan.
Thank you!!
Have you ever thought about a suction a device on the front of the baler to suck in loose leaves? With steam you could use ventures to suck the loose leaves into the baler. Or maybe use a orbit motor to drive a fan to suck in the leaves. Just a thought.
No, because you would then be picking up more than just leaves. Dirt. Rocks. Old dead alfalfa sticks. Bugs. But mostly dirt. I think it would be cool, especially if there was a way to filter it. But man that also sounds expensive
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch didn't think of that
I with you on the placement of the fresh air intake. That is the worst possible spot you could put it. What idiots.
Just look at the video where they are picking up bales and the only dust being kicked up is from the wheels.
Good luck on that one.
Take care and great video.
I understand the frustration, but the engineers who designed this air system have driven one of these in a working hay field. We all put up with "Harrassment Features" on new vehicles. So, work around the DMF's !
From what you Showed, it seems that re-routing the air intake to the old style high level intake would not be a major hassle. And the savings in down time and air filters would pay for itself pretty quickly.
They make a kit for it. They will be installing if for free this winter.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch Thanx for the reply. I enjoy seeing how your hay operation works. hope you and the family get well soon. Blessings from South Africa.
Who's Hand inside the diesel tank bunker !! at 11.30?
Was it worth cutting with that poor crop and the steamer as well , i had never seen a steamer before, it does seem to work well
Are you sure the blocks on your tank are metal?
How long will the hay stay damp
Can air filter bet relocated higher behind cab?
obviously the steamer helps keep the leaves on, but how much moisture does it add to the bale and how does the hay keep wit hour molding?
It’s different every night. We monitor the moisture as the bale is coming off the baler. You could add too much moisture to already wet hay. It takes a good driver watching the moisture monitor and bale weights
Nice pump setup but no galvanized pipes. They’re for water only. But a nice setup
Yeah, I’m learning this all the hard way.
What are you burning to creat the steam and how fast can the bale wagon travel when picking bales
Diesel. And it depends how far apart the bales are. 5mph to 15mph.
Is this Arizona? The mountains in the background make me think of Arizona
Yes, Buckeye
Yes but the hay was Shattering in the pickup the camera doesn’t lie!
Can you imagine how much worse it would have been without the steamer?
It would be good on Red Clover Hay Also!
Geez I can’t believe New Holland went back to that design. They must have some new engineers that have forgot the lessons of the past Idiots. I would be screaming like a cut cat at New Holland. We revamped 1048’s and 1068’s unbelievable! Good luck and nice video.
The steering box on a 1068 kinda sucks. In 4 years they go out twice. Great machines though.
@@jerryspratt4078 ran one for 4 years. Never had that problem. Broke front springs like crazy though. Which didn’t happen to much on the super 1048’s we had. Still a much improved machine compared to a 1048.
So re-route the air intsake system to make it work ! Farmers know how to re-engineer those blimps all the time ! Great mechanical skills are a necessity.
I just spent $200,000 they should build it right. Not me. Don’t you think?
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch1st) Absolutely all manufactures without exception have to control their bottom line period.
So a lot of this new "innovations" are about their billfolds not ours. I know you aren't able to comment on this so I'll do it for those of you who can't. 2nd) It isn't the owner's place to modify existing OEM equipment on these new machines after all the monies that are spent buying and maintaining them, only to void a warranty. Now rest assured, there is an update or a manufactures upgrade for a "few" dollars more and sometimes has to be brought back in to their approved shop or by their approved mechanic, for these said "upgrades" which only increase our cost. 3rd) A lot of times their innovations are so bad that we have to upgrade, just like the air filter and breather system under the platform and behind tire which is the worst possible place ever in the history of a clean air recovery system. The engineer who come up with that setup is definitely got a bonus for that year. Okay I'm done now I have to go and scatter lime and fertilizer.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch Would also like to wish you and yours a speedy recovery and a very Merry Christmas. And by the way you have a new follower.
You want a hero 5 Black?
Sounds like a lot of stuff gets stolen from your farm.
Nothing makes me madder than a thief!
I have several guns and am an excellent Marksman! Can I come and visit your farm for a week?
And let say hello to Laura Farms... Laura and Grant are the ones that turned me on to your Family Farm on the video they shot while they were down visiting you.
Good stuff.
Now that you have run the Fendt a while, what is your opinion?
My guys love them.
$22 a bale for crap hay yesterday in Norco!!! insane!!
22? What state?
@@losxmatitas6950 calif
@@chrisgilbert2152 damn, you raise cattle? I used to raise cross cattle angus/holstein and some full holstein, that was a year ago i did for about 6months but i stopped feed was going waaay to high and prices of cattle wasnt! I remember it was about 14$ a bale of 3 string like 100ish pounds! 50pound of grain bag was like 14$!
How long does a tank of water last in the steamer?
It depends on how dry conditions are and how windy it is. It could last 100 acres or only 40.
How many gallons of. Water do you use per acre on average
7 to 8 acre foot.
Is your dad the boss/owner and Brian is the manager?
My dad is the owner and top of the pyramid. Brian and my dad are first cousins and grew up together almost like brothers. So Brian is the #2 and head of production. Then I’m like a #3 head of logistics and inventory
Why do the steamers blow off like that
Dry.
Now I understand until you showed the steamers and explained what they do I have never heard of them even if I was raised on a ranch
Brian 35 gallons per minute
Eeehhhh I don’t think that’s right.
Is that your dad
Who?
Is theft as big a problem as you make it seem where you're at?
To me, any theft is a big problem. But this year alone. 2 vehicles stolen. Unknown amount of tools and thousands of dollars worth of hay.
35 gallon per minutes
Maybe. 😉
Gallons per minute :)
No, I don’t think that’s right. ;)
GPM = Gallons per minute
That doesn’t sound right.
Dominique is correct. Gallons per minute
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch You wanna bet? hahahahahahaa
@@leviwulff I don’t think so.

Well that has to be the worst design ever .
I bet there are worse.
