HayRay, I was thinking of doing some italian ryegrass and red clover on some ground this spring that has been in row crops for almost the last decade. Its mostly sandy loam soil. Just wondering if you grazed it or made haylage out of it. How productive was it? I was thinking of running some...

ive seen storeys guide to raising beef cattle at tsc stores too.

I agree with everybody else...Ive been using two gallaghers for five years now and have also really enjoyed the quality and dependability. My next fencer will also be another Gallagher.

oh i cant wait for spring, im still walking through snow and mud.

kaneranch ive got the same problem you have. 98 GMC same engine, with blown head gasket. I dont really have any advice but i am leaning towards replacing the head gasket and some possible upgrades to prevent anymore problems. I was looking over some things on this website...

I recently purchased a NH BR750 Round Baler this winter and I'm still looking to upgrade the way I rake hay. All the hay I bale is dry and usually consists of straight alfalfa or an alfalfa/grass mix. Right now i'm leaning towards a H&S 12 Wheel Hi-Capacity Rake. I have a nine foot haybine...
