Thanks for tuning in!

You got it right for the small operator. Balers are about 35,000 each minimum. I dont know how much the stackers are, but say 30,000, Those tractors are in the 75,000 range. Kuhn cutters are about 10,000 each for a tractor that size, those rakes I'm going to guess at 8,000. Tenders in the 5,000. Plus he has the big extendable boom loader maybe 100,000. Some has maybe around $850,000 in equipment, plus fuel, twine, oil and labor cost. How can you make any money with that overhead? I put up about a 1000 small squares a year. I manually adjust my bale tension for a 40-45 lb bale. It messes up, my old John Deere stays running so I can make knotter adjustments. In the end, my hay costs about $3.50 per bale, to grow, bale, and put it in the barn. It is hot, hard and dirty work. I don't know how these guys buy all new equipment to bale hay.

Bones is in for the long haul lol

Nothing is impossible son! There's plenty of UKposts videos with all the information you need to become a farmer. Buy some land or farm and talk to farmer in the local community, start small and build your way up. Never quit on your dreams, I don't know your situation but I'm rooting for you!

@@arnljot9030 i dont know how profitable it is in usa but here where i live land is extremely expensive and you need 100+ hectares to get some decent money. other than that you need big loans to grow as a farmer

@@arnljot9030 man, loved your words. I just see great human beings here :) i started a farm with 10 hectares, just 2 are mine, people borrowed and i payed for a few of them. Its really hard, but im loving everyday, never learned so much in my life. I'm 22, got a 35hp 1970 leyland, a few implements and a some borrowed ones, last year i made total of one salary just for the business. Gonna buy a little john deere 5075e soon! Life is great, even with not much money :D if it was easy anyone would do it

You can do it! I'm thinking of buying some land now to start a farming operation. I don't come from money but the more I research the more I see it is possible. Agricultural loans are very forgiving and they work with you

I have a farming career and watch haying vids all the time lol

Thank you!

Damn i would hope so. How else you suppose to run your grain auger.

How many acres did you have to pull that off?

@@RogerT-kt3zd around 150 acres.

As long as all that labor stays a memory haha. We like the bundle system

I bypass every safety switch I find. The only one I find any use for is the neutral safety switch to start it. The rest are nothing but a PITA.

I have done some of those 2000 bale days. Never again.

Last year they moved the rain up a day on me, I had 4700 bales on the ground and I got them all out of the field overnight just me and dad by hand after baling all day. He's 70 and drove the truck I stacked and our tag along elevator pitched them onto the wagon. Worst night of my life, oh and I also had Covid and was running a 104 degree fever the whole time. Still fighting covid lung a year later.

​@@nwhittemore078855 I know that feeling, acres upon acres mowed, dried and ready... And then there's a shift in the feeling of the wind and black clouds appear. You just know you will work a year's worth of wear on your body in the next hours😂

@rolsen1304 I'm just glad we had enough trailers that I only had to unload 1 semi worth in the barn to get them all. Between 2 semi trailers,2 30 foot cotton wagons and 2 30+5 foot goosenecks we got them all. I slept on the ground for a few hours, didn't have the will or want to even drive the 1/2 mile home. Woke up at 10am to a major thunderstorm in a puddle of mud lol.

I need to look into that feature more for sure

:)

Seems like their customers probably can't handle the big bales, and prefer the small ones. They can bundle and load them, and the customer can cut the bundles and handle the small bales.

Very cool! thank you!

We sell almost exclusively to horse customers

Power stations ???✌️✌️🇬🇧🇬🇧

Vegans 😂😂😂

:)

That’s honest work!

@@FarmingInsider Thats not honest work ,,thats back breaking work ,, ive done it,,

​@@clodhopper946It's still honest work, just not EASY work.

:)

We did finally get some! just in time for some teff to start growing. It was a real gift

@@FarmingInsider it was very dry here our alfalfa was going backwards

@@aidenkoster6427Lol, fast forward 5 days, I think we’ve received over 7 inches in Edmonton over the past week. The cricks are a’ flowin’.

@@happycanayjian1582 we are at about 4.5 inch south of red deer right now

It’s very popular around here

:)

we use 440

Thank you sir!

you're the best! thanks for the support

@@FarmingInsider Glad to see you know bailing and the difference between your and you're.

Sure, I’ll do it more next video

Weight, Moisture, Fan Keeps Knotters Clean, Silo King keeps bales from heating and molding/sweating if they're a touch too moist

People walked everywhere for centuries, now we need cars to survive. What’s your point

1st cutting runs 140-170 bale usually

Greetings!

Delmhorst

That’s some good yields!

Thank you!

Yes they are. 2022 models

Correct, we just get 6 mil plastic from Home Depot. As long as the hay is dry there is zero spoilage

Silo king dry hay

@@FarmingInsider What applicator control?

Man, cure your hay properly and don't put that stuff on horse hay.

@@stage4roush Gandy Box

We are in mostly Medina and Lorain county, Ohio. Thank you!

I know we would get tired of the city but it would be tough to just dive into this

I love that!

You got that right!
