New Holland TS130a cutting hay

[john6218att]

square corners may be a pain to do but can you afford to waste all the hay you leave? I can't, use a disc mower instead>

[pitkakorva]

why did you by 2wd tractor insted of 4wd? sry my english isn't so good :)

[basborsboom]

Why are you making sutc mes of the corners



[Farmerknowsbest]

@basborsboom

I'm not. I go back and cut the corners at the end on the angle. No miss and the field can be easily raked after. Square corners are useless.

[brian93ist]

@Farmerknowsbest we rake hay in straight lines back and forth

[dhunt1964]

Is that a 489 new holland haybine

[brian93ist]

you missed cutting hay on the corner

[davepape2000]

Here in SK only 3inches of rain all season and must of it was in july

[kevinM2123]

buy it from us here on vancouver island! michell farms have lots of first cut!

[cowboybob39]

big rounds? how much do you want for it?

[kevinM2123]

oh u need round  nah we dont do the big round ones. just the 50lb or 45 lb square bales.

[cowboybob39]

how's the hay out there? here in alberta the hay is 4 inches tall in most places... lol the only people who have hay this year have irrigation. Dunno what we're gonna do this winter...

[international660]

That looks like pretty decent feed, are you really making it into bedding?

[Farmerknowsbest]

Yes. That was dry chopped and on the floor of the barn the very next day.

[cornfarmer4700]

nice so your cutting hay now i love NH hay eqitment it is the best

[Farmerknowsbest]

Square corners are next to impossible to rake so why bother? I've never plugged a haybine cutting corners.

[cornfarmer4700]

huh?

[ihatetractors1]

What the hell srt of mower is that??? kind a like a miny combine!!!(irish person ere)

[brian93ist]

@Farmerknowsbest you shouldnt have to rake this

[salamander27001]

we used a '79 488 up until 2002, thing was bulletproof but also getting tired. how many hp is the 130? 130? ditto on the corners, but with a 4wd it would be more trouble than it's worth. plus holding the cam.

[Farmerknowsbest]

Our JD 6200 can do it and it is 4wd. You are limited by the drawbar for steering not the tractors ability.

[daveilfitaul]

good video

[channerty]

haha, everytime you go round the corner you miss a bit.

ah well, shit happens!

[Farmerknowsbest]

That's intentional bud. At the end you go and cut the corners on an angle.

[ACFarmer89]

Do you ever try and not miss the corners? So you don't have to mow them last and possibly plug the mower?

[johndeer7030]

Why dont you use a disc mower ?

[Farmerknowsbest]

Hard to use what you don't have.

[newholland4life]
