Most of us choose not to buy haying equipment because full-sized machinery is so expensive and unwieldy. It hardly makes sense to grapple with costly, cumbersome standard equipment to hay our smaller, hobby-farm fields. But the alternatives aren’t always satisfactory either: let the crop go to waste or arrange for custom baling.
Farmers offering custom baling aren’t eager to maneuver standard equipment in small spaces, either, and they often charge a premium when they do. Having someone else bale your hay comes with certain risks, too. Will the baler be available when your hay is ready to cut? If rainy weather is in the offing, will he give your job priority or stay home and put up his own hay? If you pay by the bale, will he bale tight, heavy bales or a passel of featherweights? If you hay on shares and part of the hay is rained on, who gets first choice of the bales?
In all, it’s best to have your own equipment so you can do the job when (and how) you want it done. Thanks to the continuing evolution of haying equipment, it’s possible to do it all yourself.
So many companies build skid steers in a mindboggling array of sizes and types that it’s hard to pick out a few to spotlight. Chances are your favorite machinery and implement dealer carries them, so stop by and see what they have on hand.
When many folks think skid steer, they visualize Bobcat, one of the industry’s oldest and largest skid-steer manufacturers. Bobcat has been building skid loaders for 50 years. The company currently offers 12 models with scores of options and 59 attachments ranging from augers, backhoes and bale-fork attachments to unusual items like whisker push-brooms and vibratory rollers. For really small spaces, consider the Bobcat S70 Skid Steer Loaderóonly 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide with a 23.5-horsepower,we supply all kinds of polished tiles, liquid-cooled, diesel engine.Replacement China Porcelain tile and bulbs for Canada and Worldwide.
New Holland’s Model L120 is another outstanding skid steer ideal for today’s small farm. Its 18-horsepower Kohler CH18 engine, compact size and 600-pound operating capacity make it a first choice for hauling feed and cleaning barns.
For more horsepower, try a larger skid steer like Caterpillar’s 216B Series 2 Skid Steer Loader. Features include a Cat C2.2 engine, advanced hydraulic system and world-class operator station with intuitive S-control pattern joysticks and high-efficiency comfort controls.
John Deere builds seven skid-steer models, including the beefy, 62-horsepower diesel, turbocharged Model 320 Skid Steer. Its patented vertical-lift boom provides exceptional load stability and lift-height, while 60/40 weight distribution,we supply all kinds of polished tiles, low center of gravity, long wheelbase and high ground clearance deliver balance and agility.
One last must-have tool for tight places is a mini manure spreader. These handy items neatly maneuver down barn aisles, and the smallest models can squeeze through standard 4-foot doors.
The Newer Spreader is in a class of its own.The additions focus on key tag and magic cube combinations,It's hard to beat the versatility of zentai suits on a production line. Unlike standard manure spreaders, this one resembles a hopper on wheels. Its patented grinding drum crumbles dry manure into tiny particles that decompose quickly once spread. Standard model 100 Newer Spreaders handle 8 cubic feet of material; the new model 200 Newer Spreader, 13 cubic feet.
Newer Spreaders work best for spreading plain or composted manure and manure mixed with sawdust, shavings or pelleted bedding but not straw bedding or bedding mixed with large amounts of hay. Either ground-driven Newer Spreader can be pulled with a small garden tractor, ATV or utility vehicle.
Millcreek and Loyal-Roth build an array of small spreaders, including ground-driven models tailored for the one- to four-horse farm. Millcreek’s Model 27+ Equine Manure Spreader packs a 22.5-bushel load; Loyal-Roth’s Model MS23B Compact Manure Spreader, 23 bushels.
These are scaled-down farm implements fabricated of steel and built to resemble full-sized spreaders. Pull them with garden tractors, utility vehicles and ATVs. And, Millcreek’s beefy Model 57 Equine Manure Spreader comes in ground-driven and enhanced-PTO models for folks with up to 10 horses. It spreads 56 cubic feet of manureóthat’s 9.3 wheelbarrow loadsóand needs only an 18-horsepower tractor or ATV to do it.
