Getting back into doing our own hay since "Big Farmer" gave raw deal & 1st crop (late July) was sticks, 2nd crop Oct. & rain! (Has been getting more aggravating every year). Anyway, we need advice on equip &tractor. Thinking 2 buy a 1958 model Allis Chalmers D17. Any advice on if these are OK older tractors? We have 27 acres and it maybe isn't real cost-efficient to do our own, but it is getting real old being left til last and watching the once-beautiful hay turned to straw before it is made. It's been years since we made our own & have to get all the equip again. Haybine, rake, baler all need 2 be purchased. We were only getting 1/3 of the hay but we got the impression that the hay guy wasn't doing right by us (giving us the hay from the weedier parts of the fields, for example, or the wettest bales, etc). We don't have enough hay to get our animals through the winter & should've had plenty. Any equip or tractor features/ makes you'd recommend ? Thanks for allowing me to blow off steam!
