Rolling Oaks Farm - Hay Baling on June 19, 2013

A John Deere 6400 tractor and a John Deere 348 Square Baler complete the mechanized portion of Rolling Oaks's first hay cutting of the year.

Marcia Johnson guides the baling parade around the pasture. She also had the task of adjusting the baler after the season's first few bales "exploded" after being kicked.

Com: Fly : Need to get up another gear or two should be popping a bale every 10 - 12 seconds not 26 - 30 seconds you should have been done in half the time and half the fuel

Com: 322: Some here say it was "way too slow...." I say the speed is just right....with this speed everything lasts longer.....you have fewer jams....
