Hay Cut...

[CRUSADER]

Had about 5 hay cut fields to try, didn't know what to expect as it was all new land. Sadly, after 2.5 hours of burning we gave up with very little to show for our efforts. Still it was nice to explore new land, & we only tickled it.

What was much better news was the early start of the Harvest

Its the first combine on any of our land, bringing in the Barley crop. So UKers, ring them farmers & check you haven't got a couple of early Barley stubble land options next weekend
However, the fields are not on our hit list, so not that exciting, but it does mean we are close

Good barley cut, a little plowing, rolling, add a dash of rain. Sounds good.

Nice finds, glad you were able to get out. If your farmer friends need any parts for the combines, let me know. I live right down the road from a Used Combine place that sells parts all over the world, heck at the other end of the road is a Used Tractor dealer. I always say, I live in the middle of the millionairs. LOL.

Do they ever plow the fields over there after harvest? Over here in Ohio USA. they just want to do no till. I wish they would plow once in awhile.

Nice finds and neat pictures Thanks and good luck.

Generally most only disc up the stubble & drill straight in. If they do a deep plough (12") then its every 5 years or so.
