The Right Tools

Hay and forage are more complicated than they might seem, as you’ve probably learned. Cutting, collecting, and baling it requires the right tools for each step, and different versions of those tools all have their own advantages. Swathers and mowers cut differently, for instance, while a mower conditioner and tedder have their own strengths and weaknesses. Also remember that different crops will work better with different machines. Consider what your process presently is and what might improve it.

Your Tractor

Of course, you need to make sure any equipment you’re buying will be compatible with your tractor. Most attachments are pretty flexible, but you should consider how much weight your tractor can handle, how wide is too wide an implement for your tractor to handle, and how much horsepower your tractor can provide. Not all hay and forage equipment is an implement, but those that are will be impacted by those considerations.
