Hi,
First time post here. It's getting harder and harder to find neighbors who will do small squares of hay for me, and since I'm not really set up to work with round bales, it may be time for me to start to invest in a few pieces of equipment of my own. I was thinking of looking for a haybine this year, and perhaps adding a square baler next year. I do 2 cuttings of mostly grass hay off of about 10 acres each year, so I don't need anything big or fancy, but just something that is mechanically sound, and not too expensive.
I'm not really too familiar with farm equipment, but I've got an uncle who misses his days on the farm and loves to put those skills back to work, so he is excited about using his tractor for the work.
Does anyone have suggestions about what might be an older, inexpensive, yet fairly reliable model of haybine that I should look for? Is it realistic that I might be able to find something in the $1,000 range?
