Subject: How does mowing hay like this work? (pics)



south central IOWA
With all the talk about tedding hay and the university's studies on pan evaporation and all. How does this hay dry down so fast in a 3ft or so windrow out of the conditioner? It's a 3 day process for us. Mow in afternoon on day 1, sit for a day, then on day 3 we rake and bale. Baled dry and the bales have a nice green color to them. I don't understand the literature I've read about making hay so can someone explain this to me? The pictures of raking, that field made 37 bales out of a JD 567 on 12.5 acres. The last ones are what I mowed yesterday and today. Hope it don't rain. :)

Oh yeah......running a skunk through the mower is not cool!!!
