Welker Farms in the US with their latest project

I used to work in that area 30+ years ago. Did not know these guys but, knew the Wahl farm that he talks about at the end. Big Buds were still in production back then. But they were winding down only building a few. We had two of them on the farm I was on and two more even bigger Canadian built tractors. They were ideal back in the days of summer fallow but with chem fallow nowadays there is not the need for big horsepower
 
The idea seems right, but is it really practical, lets face it how many have us would have fields like that to bale anyway??

And getting about the roads..................................Think i'm out!

A pickup and belt set up would be more compact on the front.

I still say if you had one you would be busy in a wet year! No driving over spread or wide swaths to rake... less soil contamination.

If you forget about pulling a baler too you could pop between fields in reverse and hitch it on the back for big journeys.

But in a year like this one it would be a pain in the backside!!
