Making Bedding

Photobucket
We just made large bales of cornstalks out of the stubble left on the fields after the fall harvest. It provides nice bedding for the cattle to lay on. It acts as insulation to keep them warm & dry. Darrell loads all of the bales onto the wagon and then we drive them out of the field and down the road to the various barns & sheds we store them in until we need them. Once there, one of our guys unloads and carefully stacks the bales using a skidsteer. Meanwhile, another person is tilling the fields that were already baled to get ready for spring planting.
