@Hello Ratdog how are you doing

Pete, I really appreciate all the camera angles. I know this must add plenty of time to your work day but It is valuable to us non-farmars to really see how the machines work. Almost looks like it was going to rain in this video. Hope you get to bale before that happens.

Valuable to non-farmers? I'm just getting into farming and hay production and Pete's videos have been invaluable to my learning so far. I even ended up with the same round baler as him lol.

You’re getting some great shots with the camera and drone.

My favorite part is when you give the perspective of driving the tractor which gives me great memories. The Drone videos also really cool

how can anyone DISLIKE these videos. come on be serious!!!!!! LOVE THE CHANNEL!!!!!

Lovely cinematography, Pete. Great drone shots. Lovely close ups. Lots of storytelling. Terrific stuff.

I've said it before but it's worth repeating, this channel is both informative and relaxing to watch,👍👍👍

See you back in a few minutes with the Tedder. Probably tomorrow for us though. The drone shots have been so excellent. Whoever is flying it, Hilary?, is doing a fantastic job. Very enjoyable Pete! So satisfying.

SPECTACULAR CAMERA SHOTS !!! Pete watching this episode of yours was like being there. Precticulary 3D !! Thanks for the ride. Great fun riding with youl

Listen that 656 sing it’s great seeing equipment like that still Used today most people woulda called junk parked in a hedgerow some where just rusting when still has a lotta potential good work Pete

Loved the scientific explanation behind grass cutting scheduling... Also super cool done shots!

Something relaxing about cutting hay

I began checking the comment section to see if anyone had said anything about the swallows that appear to be flitting over the hay as it's cut. I recall Pete saying there were swallows in the woods. I used to watch swallows nest near me as a child, I found them fascinating. I don't see so many now, sadly.

I like to see the older tractors working

I love the IH 656 tractor! I’m a huge fan of the channel. I have a strong passion for farming and your videos have taught me a lot. Thanks and keep making the awesome videos buddy!!

I really enjoy your videos. Raised on a farm brings back a lot of memories watching you… beautiful hay and I can almost smell it

Great videos. Nice to see a small farm video. More relatable.

Always watching Pete, Fun videos, thank you

Boy oh boy, Pete! What a satisfying video! It's almost like I was right there with you. All the camera shots were quite interesting. I'm sure it's more work for you but I really appreciate it. Im one of those guys who like to cut grass. After high school I worked for Lawn care services, Golf courses, and County mowing crews. I loved it, but I really would love mowing hay, raking hay, and baling hay. What a treat. I love the sickle mower too. I'll tell you what. I'll come work for you for free if I can cut, mow and rake and bale. Hey! this could be a moneymaker - like a dude ranch! We pay you to work on the farm! Anyway, Thanks for the great videos. I found you late but I'm a catchin' up.

I sure enjoyed watching you cut down that bulky hay field and will be watching to see how many bales you will get.

Pete, I have watched all your video's. You do a great job. I'm a farmer and finished my first cutting two weeks ago. I put up 1,100 small square bales. You are doing a good job educating people.

the drone shots are so satisfying

Pete, here's a quick way to find out the acres in your field. Go to Google Maps, find your farm. In the lower left hand corner click on Satellite, Find one of your fields, (R) click on that spot, a small circle will appear, go to the next corner & (L) click on that corner them move to the next corner until you get to the 1st spot you started at. A total area will appear in a box. Take the total area & divide by 43,560 = acres in the field. My person at the FSA office showed me this a few years ago, they use the same method for field measurements. I've done all my fields and it is very close.

Very nice job of how grasses degrade 👍👍👍

Cutting hay is the second fun thing to do after plowing, the smells of either one of is so enjoyable !

Thanks for sharing buddy

Greetings from Ireland love your videos and farm life keep them coming.👍👍 Camillus.🚜🚜

Very beautiful video. I saw a white building in your field it is similar to white mausoleums in rural areas of North Africa countries .

Brilliant - every possible camera angle! 👍👌🚜

Those drone shots are awesome

Pete, I have a cheap, easy solution to the hay dragging on your hitch pin. Take an 18 inch long piece of baler belt and cut an X through it near one end with a utility knife. Then slide the X over your drawbar before you hook on the haybine or baler. The belt keeps the hay from catching on the hitch pin.

I think the hydro is ideal for your application. I drove a 574 hydro years ago and thought it was really good to operate. They always seemed to have a bad reputation here in Australia for being unreliable and expensive to fix but I think they are great, and to see it used to its potential on hay and loader work is terrific. Thanks for another great video.

Hello from Coventry, 🇬🇧 Love your channel ❤

Farmers work is never done .......... I know how it feels working on a farm and ranch ,thanks to my neighbor and friend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We must be a little dryer hear in east central Minnesota. When I was growing up on the farm,after we cut with the haybine we would just roll the hay a day or so later with our wheel type rake. Then we would bale when it was dry. Its interesting to see the different methods around the country.

Ha Pete I bolt a peace of rubber under my draw bar 18 to 20 inches long 7 to 8 inches wide old baler belt works grate I let it run back under the hitch pin so the hitch doesn't drag hay up under it saves piled up hay helps to keep from plugging up the baler if the tedder doesn't get it scattered out thanks for sharing

Well Done Pete :) also take time also hours too and excellent video also!

Hi pete love your show like the old fashioned methods. Saying hi from australia

Next week is nothing but rain here just a few miles north of you

Hi I am Arnold all the way from Trinidad and Tobago I love your videos keep up th good work.

I absolutely love all the angles and the over head view!!

Don't take this the wrong way... You are a farming nerd. I love it good work.

I love watch all of your videos

Pete - great tutorial on hay harvesting - the drone shots are well done - nothing is more satisfying than a job well done !

Great video. The footage was really professional. Keep it up!

Fantastic video Pete. One of my favourites so far. Just superb 👌

hi friend i dont know about cutting Hay now i know hehheh . the calf is sleeping deeply a cutety one. i enjoy your vedio its good.

Another good video, it's a one stop shop. Farm work, drone shots, jokes and science class, witch was really informative. Your doing an excellent job!

Great video for a rainy day .😀

Love your videos. That should make a lot of bales of great quality hay ! 🙂

You make good videos and give great explanations. Enjoyed the closeups, the drone shots, and the humor too. Thank you.

Good thing you noticed that calf Laing down in the field!

It's fun to learn something. I like it, Mr. Pete. :) :) :)

Nice camera work...great video...thanks for sharing..

It seems it might have been less aggravation to just mow one way. That's what we do when the grass is down like yours. It does mean more running back the field but if your getting a cleaner cut and able to run faster it goes just a quickly in the end. I have only been watching your videos for several months and even though I am what seems to be a few years older, you have taught me a lot of reasons behind things we have been doing my whole life nd I didn't know the reasoning why. Thank you for such an informative look at small farming here in the US. You do remind me a lot of my Grandpa who is no longer with us. He always had the old International tractors which is what I grew up learning on. And though I only have 53 acres of which most is in Christmas trees, our tractors now are much newer. Thanks so much for offering such a wonderful site.

Digging that hydro! I wish they built a B414 hydro or any of those on that series 434, 424, 444, 354, 364, 384

You logo/moniker is [ just a few acres]. I believe that I have fewer acres, at 20. But I do enjoy watching & learning, from your videos.

Very nice hay crop!

I’m learning a lot from you. You are a good teacher! Thanks

Lots of tonnage there! Good for you!

I remember having to mow 1 way. Honestly do not remember needing to watch out for calves. We were a small dairy, so only a few heifers, and a steer stayed. Thanks for posting Pete.

Love the drone shots! So beautiful!

Great drone shots. Very satisfying to see from above.

Well done Pete. Will be interested in how many bales you get, especially compared to last season. Great camera work.

A master at work.

Pete, I loved the joke!! I laughed three times thinking about it...And yes...I'm Married!

Awesome video Pete.

I love the high drone shots.....great job pete

Love those drone shots... The lines and patterns and colors are really cool and appeal to my artistic side...

Thanks for posting the video about loading animals. We loaded our herd of three for the ADCA National show in tecord time this morning. 👍

Old swather earning its keep right there. Nothing better than old, mechanically sound equipment.

Excellent jobs!!

I smile every time I see you posted a new video!

I love seeing you cut hay with the IH equipment. I use an IH 990, 9 ft cut as well. I just rebuilt the cutterbar because it was leaving some streaks last year. Can’t wait to get out and use it. Love your channel! Thanks.

Love your new drone camera!!! Such a beautiful acreage you have there!!🧑‍🌾🤩🧑‍🌾🤩🧑‍🌾

That 656 sure sounds good!! Love those IH tractors!! That tractor size and power might be the best haying tractor ever!

Hi Peter & Hillary. Great day to be on the tractor. Sorry the growth was so high. Be well & safe.

I'm back for a 2nd viewing ;-). I've sooo enjoyed all of your haying videos. Great shots of the equipment and the fields. Loved the explanations about when to hay and HOW you hay to keep your equipment running well. And don't your fields just look wonderful!!!??? Bravo!

Still better than a snowball

Your growth as cameraman is extremely evident in this video Pete, a variety of different angles and perspectives, well done!

I've learned more about hay from this video than from anything else....amazing videos!!

So satisfying! Love the drone shots. We are currently building up our fields with clover and orchard grass for our sheep! Goals!

Nice efficient cut pattern. Like others have said, nice work on the drone b-roll! Now that the algorithm is satisfied have a nice day.

Awesome and interested content from Australia thanks mate..

I enjoy your videos you explain everything very clearly, often us farmers are not great at expressing ourselves we work on our own and have not developed great language skills we can read animal behaviour and fix things but not express ourselves .As well as expressing yourself you also have that farmer skill of driving straight foreward while looking back at the implement . good luck and health on your farm from Ireland

I missed my weather window to make hay this week. I've made hay for 9 years. This year was the first year we had 7 days of great weather! Great video!

I thoroughly enjoy these videos, and from the numbers I can see that I am not alone. I would guess that all of this camera work takes a lot of time - thank you very much. I hope that the number of views makes you some money.

Hay, Pete; well done!
