Chopping hay!

I wasn’t able to get a picture of the crew “merging” the rows of alfalfa, but here they are chopping the hay.

The chopper blows the hay into the semi who then takes it to the dairy to be packed into a large pile of feed.

It takes some skill to run at the same speed and stay the correct distance from the chopper.

Mowing Alfalfa

We have an alfalfa field we planted for the dairy to have feed for their cows. The hay mowers showed up tonight.

They mow it into these piles then another crew will come and merge the mowed rows into a bigger row for the chopper.

Here’s the mower.
