Ziko Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 Thank you Walter. @Pete, no mate the old ones are still going strong! We did buy a new baler though, a New-Holland BB 940. The newest model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziko Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Well I see it has been a while, but I have some pictures for you again! Hope you enjoy them! First up some pics of raking and baling the sea dikes. I guess you like the pics because you won't see something like that in the U.K. These are not our tractors but I just took some pictures. The tractor is a Valtra C-series with a Ziegler rake. Contractor Dieleman is baling the hay with a John Deere 7710 and 2 year old Vicon bigbaler.

Ziko Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Next up some pictures from last week, we had some very nice weahter and much of the grass seed were ripe and were mowed down. The harvesting could now begin! We working on one piece of land with 3 combines. That was a pretty sight! I was driving with the 2650 and 2 trailers. I had to keep driving with full and empty wooden boxes to put the grass seed in. In the morning we first had to clean the baler. 9560i is waiting to get to work! 2650 waiting for me When I arrived at the place were the full boxes are unloaded and empty boxes are loaded, there was a truck in front of me that had to be loaded with full boxes.

Ziko Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 Update from last weekend. Too bad rain started pouring down on Monday, still lots of hay waiting to be baled. And lots of grass seed to be harvested! We were baling, I was driving ahead of the baler with the 2650 and the JF rake. 7720 with brandnew BB9080 following! Raking 2 swaths into 1. From the cab.
