the basics of raking & tedding hay

In this video, the second in our hay making series, I cover the basics of raking and tedding hay. I talk about the best times in the drying process to do each and the different types of rakes and tedders, along with their advantages and disadvantages. We go out to the fields to ted hay with a Farmall 504 tractor and a 2 star tedder, and rake hay with an International 656 tractor and a New Holland 258 hay rake. I also show you a pattern for raking I developed which results in straight windrows that are easy to bale.
