Where can I get ox drawn haying equipment? I would like a mower, rake and baler that do not run on fuel, if possible. I live in eastern Ontario, about an hour south east of Ottawa.
i liked watching the tractor baile hay i would not like the horses baling there is a motor right next to you it would be very hot i could not do it in a field this big is the bailer a 24t or 14t?
The hay in this video was largely alfalfa and grass. In the beginning shots the alfalfa was in full bloom. We prefer to cut at 10% bloom but this was too photogenic to pass on. That stand was near 100% alfalfa.
Also, seancarm posted these questions on the previous version of this video: "How much fuel does the horse drawn baler use compared to the tractor? When the baler trips does it give a jolt to the horses?" There are many variables, but our estimate is that the horse-drawn baler and forecart uses about 1/3 to 1/4 the fuel of a tractor. Also, the baler doesn't jolt the horses so much when it trips, as it has more of a continuous rocking rhythm.

What kind of hay is that? I mean, what is the weed being cut?
