Nice video. We've had the same incidents with bales chasing us down hills in the past, but we've learned that when we are baling on hills to back up and put the bale against the hill so it doesn't roll. Very well put together demo

Brings back memories of baling with I 4240 and a John Deere 510 round baler back in the 80s and 90s !! We custom baled a lot of hay and ran a Vermeer before that but the Deere was easier to start a bale and just less problems then the Vermeer was back then

The Kuhn baler will make silage bales much better than the john deere. The European balers are just made heavier for silage while Deere and New Holland were just originally made for dry hay only then updated to do silage. That's just my experience with them and it not my money that will be spent. Good luck

As long as you have a good dealer and can get parts for it the Kuhn looks like a nice baler. I still prefer the Case IH balers for parts availability etc. Mine is the older Case IH RS 451 with floatation tires, bale monitor, wrap, and kicker all for $8,500 used. The farmer that traded it went for a silage model. Round baling is the way to go. You should also consider a silage model as drying hay is not easy in NY.

We don't have a round baler as you know. Not sure if we will ever get one but if we do, at least through you we feel we have an honest representation of the pros and cons of all the different makes and actually how to use one. Sonne Farms uses a John Deere round baler with a 3 bale accumulator. I don't know if all makes have one or not but I think that would be great for picking them up from the field. I look forward to which make you go with when the decision is made.
