Hy There,
The weather is good so we mowe and bale our first piece of land this year, it was on 27.05.
This is our biggest meadow / grass land in one piece and it's the only one flat enough to work with tractor at least more or less (20-30% steel need to mowe and work handly)
we own Metrack 4004 for a few years now, but this time i push it to the limit for the first time, it go up to 38 degree then rear wheels start lifting or start sliding, one time i was preatty close to turn it arround, so now i know where the limitation is ;)
That's also the only field where we make bales, because there are really bad weather in may when the grass is ready to cut, everything else we dry and store as dry hay.
English language was always pain in the a** for me, I respect every correction, but please be gentle
Thanks for watching.

@3:10 - holding on for dear life it seems!! :D I live in farming country myself (though I'm only a "grass/lawn farmer") and everything is flat for as far as the eye can see. Glad to see you make money on more than just KZfaq vids!

Farming is great if you heave a flat terrain. Actually i make money by full time job as electrical maintencer in fabric. Farming is just one think beside of all hobbys, we got about 4Ha to mow and that is for abbout 3-4 bulls + 1 cow to get milk at home, so there are no money at all on terrain like that, all the tools, tractors and equipement is buy completely from job salary 😂 true story that's the status of small farms in slovenia, older generation work because they think they should, but younger one close farm by farm and also i don't see a future in that with my broken spine disc, terrain is just too tough there are few arces we only can cut hay with scythe🙈

@@TinC33 - As much as I hate the term, a lot of people would call it a "side hustle" I guess. But really, it's a hobby farm from the looks of things. It's fun, makes enough to hopefully (!) support itself right?!

@@DrFiero true, all the people only see tractors and how much they cost, so there should be money, but rarely know that we save money years (from full time job salary) to buy an old tractor for like 10k€ to make work a bit easier...without lies there are maybe few hundred yes few 100€ of income end of year but without buying parts for equipement and there are work trough all the year... For example a calf cost about 500e and after two year you got about 1,5k for a bull there are really no money at all, most value is a "homemade" milk and meet, when father will stop farming i don't heave caws and bulls anymore but at least try to mowe as much parcels as can (a bit concerns how will go due to serius back issue) and sell the hay otherwise the house soon will be in the middle of forrest.

Where are you from btw? So you own the land or only work on farm, if i understand you only produce hay without animals?

@@TinC33 - I'm in southern Alberta, Canada. I do own the land, but I was just making a joke. I have a very big lawn. I mow the grass. ;) I'm a mechanic, electronic tech, computers - that sort of thing - so I have never had to be a manual laborer my whole life. And I'm essentially retired now.

You are a very brave man on such a side slope. Can you get another crop in the same year?. Please stay safe.

@TinC33 Жыл бұрын

As i said this is our best parcel, so we also spread cow shit with reform muli here so we get 3 crop per year, its also good to try limits because there are a bit flat terrain below so tractor can safetly stop in case of roll or slip... On some other parcel there is a main road below so there's no place for fails so we use winch to hold tractor on steel wrope with another tractor on top so the feeling is much better.

Enjoyed seeing your haymaking but personally not so keen on so much high speed footage.
