No it wasn’t it was krone 😀

Yah me that would be awesome

I agree

It was a risky move, wasn’t sure the go pro would stay on!!

Thanks! Big fans of the bales as well I see!

Exactly, a lot of people don’t get this. High butterfat in the milk with long fiber too. Our was nearly 5% this year

Finally two people who get me

In Norway its rare to see normal outside bunkers. You never see them eanywhere its bales or what i commented below

And If not in bales its in large round concrete vertical silos

Yes, we chop all the bales we make. The baler belongs to a contractor who does 20,000 bales a year and has no complaints with it

Jack Hume around 600 milkers and a fair few youngstock too!

Like wow guys, how long does it take you to milk that many head of milkers ? and thanks 🙏 for letting me know how many milkers you have! .

Depends on a few things at different times of year but usually 3 1/2 hrs

Tom Martin we did around 200 acres on our own farm first in one go then we go and do another block on a rented farm

Good solid tractor and a nice place to sit for a day.

450

Ich spreche ein bisschen Deutsch.

Für viele Betriebe sind die Ballen wirtschaftlicher als ein Fahrsilo...bessere Futterqualität flexibel im Handel länger haltbar als Fahrsilo weniger Futterverschmutzung usw....außerdem wird die Folie recycelt

WAWAW to you too mate! The mighty owls are represented everywhere

Loving the Valtra! Had a small Renault cergos once and a couple of Class Ares. Lovely comfy tractors had a few issues though 😁

@@sandersfarmvids good stuff.. Lol... Spoke to John bownes way years ago about a 106.54 or something.it was badly rusted thou. .. He told me he had a few in your part and figured seeing the valtra... I've still a couple but got two claas as well.

They can all give bother but was thinking valtra next mayb.. Greetings from northern ireland

True enough even a fendt can break down! We’ve had quite a few Valtra’s now. Have thought about changing a few times but not much else built like a valtra

Compared to clamp silage each cut probably take a couple of days longer than it would with a chopper due to increased wilting time and slower output

Feeding our milking herd and youngstock

MrButters1983 ease of use, suits the farm (we have some steepish difficult fields, put off by cost of clamp and effluent control and with bales we don’t need a fancy feed wagon and tractor to run it

@@sandersfarmvids you have already got the fancy tractors diet feeder fraction of the cost

Harry Jones bale shear, best invention ever

😂😂👍

😂

No. We have zero damage to the bales the way we do it. Too much chance of putting a hole in them carting then wrapped

@@sandersfarmvids ..Baler wrappers should be parked in sheds next to thrashers...A good loader driver with good dry cut bales should not be ripping bales...

Around 600 milkers plus followers

Suits our system. Cost of changing to a pit is a bit off putting. We have quite a few fields which are too far away and steep to be clamping

Yeah I will admit I use gps! Only a basic old one though, no auto steer!

Building a clamp, buying a feed wagon, running a tractor on it, buying a forager and trailers all going to add up. Some of our land is quite awkward and far away for a chopper

Sanders Farmvids but u can ran a combi loader weagon. Clear baling is easier but for my opinion thats too mutch plastic. And so many bales to open, with net too... and how du you feed them if you dont have any feed wagon? Sorry for my bad english i‘m from germany. Greetings

Always better to wrap at the stack

600 milkers and a fair few followers

As long as they’re not too wet they stack ok. If we do a really wet cut then they will only be stacked 2 high

We would never wrap in the field, don’t agree with it

@@sandersfarmvids well if it would speed up the process of making that many bales why not?

@@jorenhoitink5485 once they are wrapped in the yard, the bale is only handled once. if wrapped in field, put on trailer and taken off trailer, drastically increase the chances of putting holes in the plastic. only thing i disagree with is the soft hands they use after the wrapper. for being soft hands, they squeeze the living daylights out of those bales forming an air pocket in the plastic

Usually 5-6000 a year

Sanders Farmvids that’s a lot i thought 500 was a lot 😂

Joey Nemetz all answered in the other comments!

Mariusz B we have been known to do around 5 thousand

Because that’s what you do! If he loaded the rear the drawbar would lift up and the trailer would roll down the hill

@@sandersfarmvids think he means the bale spike on back of the tractor.

Sorry misunderstood the question! The VALTRA has around 300kg of rear wheel weights so it barely knows it has two bales on the front

We don’t use excessive amounts of fertilizer but we have spread lots of slurry for years so our fields are very fertile

It gets taken to an incinerator where it is burnt to produce electric

@@sandersfarmvids good job 👍

Douwe De Jong looks good but the cost of that must be horrendous. We would need a few of those

, max size is 85 x 25 x 4 to feed 400 cows

The Isle of Man!

How can it Jamie? I can see blue skies instead of grey

600 ish!

I like the music

Robert D. The Isle of Man

@@sandersfarmvids and in what country?

The Isle of Man is its own country. Sits in the middle of Irish sea

It is all burnt in an incinerator that produces electric

That’s a good idea any chance of doing a quick video on it

The incinerator isn’t ours. The Isle of Man government have a collection scheme for all farmers.

Recycling is getting easier down here in Devon and Cornwall

Not quite! 😂

So you don’t double handle them wrapped

Because they don't need to be such careful with the bales drawing them home from the field unwrapped saving time when loading and offloading the trailers

That’s what the volume buttons for 😂

@@sandersfarmvids smart arse,if I want to listen to music I would go to a music channel,I would like to hear the noise of the machinery not crappy music,I will not be watching any more of your videos,GOODBYE

Drones don’t record sound, it would be pretty dull if there was no sound

Doesn’t look like that many!
