    The Farm. Haying and Cattle Thread

    Another round on the ground. 20 plus acres of first and 2nd cutting for baling on Friday. Starting the fields where logistics comes in as the fields have no customer access and all the hay needs to be hauled back to the barn for pickup. Doing both rounds and squares on first and rounds for the...

    The Farm. Haying and Cattle Thread

    10-16’s. My biggest concern was putting the wrong ones on and have the tractor sloped up or down.

    The Farm. Haying and Cattle Thread

    Referring to the front tire I took off the 4430 when the 23 had a flat. Never liked the skinny tires for loader work. It’s a back up loader but every time I have to run the grapple on it moving squares I cuss the ruts it makes cutting in. Been contemplating upgrading for almost 5 years but...

    Does anybody still use vertical silo's anymore

    Bags are one time use. There is no way to feed out of them and they are salvageable. Bunk covers are also one time use however those that keep adding on to a pile throughout the year may take them off or roll them back for filling but every time they are handled the possibility of holes...

    The Farm. Haying and Cattle Thread

    A month ago had a flat on the 2350 and stole tire off 4430. Was surprised that it fit as good as it did and got me thinking again on upgrading to wider tires for better flotation especially when using loader. Thought it looked a little goofy but I can get pass that. Yesterday I...

    Does anybody still use vertical silo's anymore

    Used to be pine trees on west side. Maybe a windbreak at one time. Long since gone. Used to be 3 pines one on either end and one in middle of shed left of house also long gone. Not sure if shed was built then trees grew or if shed was built with trees already there.

    The Farm. Haying and Cattle Thread

    Just the other day I pulled out of in front of a pickup at my uncles. Not my normal driveway so was more attentive. My fault absolutely. I was so focused to the right because there is short view distance with the hill and people travel to fast. Quick glance left double check right and go. Well...

    The Farm. Haying and Cattle Thread

    The road is already narrow. Lane and a half maybe. A glorified dirt road. a few houses on the road but every one knows why there would be equipment or hay being delivered. Since you didn't liked the 200 yard estimate. I am on the road for 520 feet after turning off the main road before I turn...

    Getting passed on the right when trying to make a right turn. Twice this year at the same customer driveway, first time with tractor and mower and yesterday with truck and turn signals. Turn off main road onto secondary road, less than 200 yards, unless somebody coming drive in the middle, pull...
