Here are some pics of our hay process in the Amsterdam area of New York...this is the last of our first cutting after an insane couple of days - got married on sat., wife's sister had her baby (a month early) on monday...going to hawaii on friday...the goal was to get all hay done before the wedding...missed by about 300 bales...better than last year after it rained till august
the tractors in the picture are a massey 265 and a massey 1080, the haybines are NH 479 (behind the 265) and the NH 488, rakes are a NH 258 in front and an Internation 35 in the rear, and the balers are a 273 w/ the belt thrower and a 311 w/ a pan thrower.
We put up about 4,000 bales of first cutting every year.
The MF 265, NH 479, NH 258 and NH 273 have all spent their entire lives at our farm and the rest of the equip has migrated its way here in the last 5 years or so through auctions.
This is our back corner field.
