A structure made of hay bales and covered in mud and discovered by archaeologists some time ago in Arizona was over 4,000 years old. I think these bales might be used to build a massive edifice; Hell, if you just poured concrete over one, you could remove the hay. I truly appreciate the material; keep it coming.

There were 3 bigger dairy cattle activities in north east Texas utilized the Hesston 30 stack hand. Late 70s and mid 80s they were supplanted with the round baler. I requested one from the proprietors which he loved best round or stack. He preferred the large stack less work less bunches more dairy cattle. The round bundle was better for more modest farm vehicle. The stacks were bad in wet ground and we have alot. I might want to have one at this point. I have a round baler and had a few for a considerable length of time. I figure I would like a change. I have greater farm trucks now and not wrap cost so mutch. At the point when you put 600 to 1000 moves per year to take care of for your self. The round and enormous square is still better to take and sell.

Dad used a 30 behind a 2094 Case to put up our hay when we were kids. He precisely lined them up in groups of three and parked them close together. In contrast to the one in the video, we moved them using a Lahman mover that could transport three items at once. Before the stack of grass hay was complete, dad would go through uncut grass to place a "cap" on it. This would help prevent the stack from being blown away by the wind. Alfalfa has never given me that problem.

I had no clue that hay was still being stacked. I used to enjoy traveling in the TW-10 hauling the stacker with my father. My brother and I would create "stacks" in a plastic pail as my dad mowed the lawn, filling and compacting the container just like the stacker would. We used the same mover and the Stackhand 10. We had switched to little bales by the time I was old enough to assist with hay, so when I was a teenager I loaded the barn with a lot of small bales. Even into the 1990s, a neighbor of ours continued to produce little round bales using an Alice Chalmers Rotobaler from the 1950s.
