Hello,
I have a question and would like all the feed back I can get. I'm trying to get my own farm to work but the kicker is I would like to use as much older equipment that I can. (old school I guess you could say) I have a 8n, an H farmall, a 100 farmall, a cub, and a john deere mt. My question is could any of these pull/operate a hay baler? I'm not going to commercial production for hay, I just want to be more self sustaining for my self. Most everyone around here that farms anything is telling me to sell the old stuff and buy much newer stuff and forget trying to use the old. But i believe that this old iron was the workhorse back then. And if farmers did farming with it way back then i should be able to do something with it now. I just need an idea as to what types of implements and equipment I need to look for to be able to make myself more self sustaining.
Any help appreciated,
Thank you
Wayne
