Battling to Bale Rye Hay in SW Minnesota | Part 2: Raking & Baling

In this second video of our rye series, we take you through the process of raking and baling our rye in Southwest Minnesota. It's our second time ever putting up rye on our farm — and we're sharing the entire journey with you, good bad and ugly!! Whether you're a fellow farmer, rancher, or just curious about how cattle feed like rye hay is made, this behind-the-scenes look gives insight into real Midwest farming. Watch as we tackle the challenges, share tips, and start a new adventure in feeding our beef cows and feedlot cattle. Looking for an autosteer system? We just got a ‪@MacSteerautosteeringsystem‬ for our 125A tractor for hay season and it's been slick! 🔔 Subscribe for Part 3 — where we’ll hopefully be planting soybeans! 🔔 Subscribe to ‪@thatfitagvocate‬ for more updates on our farm. From calving season to raising healthy cattle that become the beef and byproducts you use daily, we share every part of the farming experience, including the tough moments that come with it. As a farmer's daughter, I’ll take you behind the scenes of what it’s like to be part of this journey and show you the entire journey and all the work that goes into raising & selling beef cattle and growing crops. From calving season to weaning to shipping cattle to the packer -- to planting, harvest and everything in between... you'll see it all throughout the year! Stay tuned for a new VLOG coming soon!
