[QUOTE="dun, post: 31745, member: 34"] Good description. Think of an eggbeater with the beater part open at the bottom. Iy takes windrows of hay and scatters it so it can better dry. After a rain it's about the only way to get air to the hay so it can dry. Legumes are realy prone to leave loss and we never raked it either. With brass we rake it to roll it to allow the bottom of the windrow to dry, or to combine multiple windrows to make larger "mouth fulls" for the baler. We put up 4X5, 5X5 and 6X6 bales. It was a real education to start doing grass hay in round bales after having alwasy doing alfalfa in 130-160 lb 3-wire small squares. dun [/QUOTE]
