Im still around on occasion ;)... We rebale, stack behind the baler, and run NH bale wagons. First cutting, everything goes into a roll. The alfalfa mix doesn't rebale well but it brings top dollar in the roll anyhow. If I had to pick one system, I'd run the NH (1034 stackliner, with a 15 bale grapple on a tracked skid loader. We use it to move the hay onto pallets and or onto trucks if I don't have help available. After the first cutting we try to square everything. Weather doesn't always cooperate so we can rebale or sell the inside stored rolls.
I don't have a good answer, the NH bale wagons are a learning curve, they're either old or way expensive. But, if you've got the over head clearance they are the cats meow. In timothy I could do 1500 a day by myself (I say could because now I mostly ride around and look important lol, my business partners and associates wont let me put in the long days anymore since I got all chewed up in an accident). 5000 bales will pay for one the first year if you're paying $1 a bale to get the hay up. Rebaling is great if you've got the right set up. I've tried several different systems, right now we're in the process of building 9600 square foot rebaling, compressing, and pelletizing facility. Still a lot of hand labor, way more than getting it with the bale wagon, but it's in a warehouse out of the weather. We try to keep more than a hundred but less than 200 baled up of each type for walk ins and a couple of semi trailers loaded for hook and go if we get a truck load order.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
