50 —Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 21,1979 Hay boosted by energy crisis NEW HOLLAND - Hay first cutting. Sometime? this has always been’a good thing will let the farmer save a but high-cost energy makes good crop he could otherwise it look even better, claims lose. Sperry New Holland’s Mac Reeves. He points out that a farmer can harvest and store his alfalfa crop with far less horsepower if he makes hay as compared to silage. Baling an acre of alfalfa only takes a fraction of the energy one would need to operate a chopper for the same crop handled as silage. The energy used to operate conveyors at storage compares very favorably with the power needed to operate a blower at a tower silo, adds Reeves. He emphasizes silage or haylage may be much the best choice for alfalfa in a streak of rainy weather in K w *r*Ci(C J i 1 1 ' ’ in i 4 • In the 1800's Sam Carter became a major general of the U.S. Army and a rear admiral in the ULS.

When the weather is with farmer, there’s no match for hay in energy cost per ton of crop drymatter harvested, Reeves points out. Today’s machines let them make better use of limited spells of good haying weather. Higher machine capacity in tons of hay baled per hour makes it easier to snatch the crop ahead of the next rain. Mechanized handling makes it easy to clear large ton nages from large fields quickly and with minimum labor. : >c<eTS "** By PH; 717-299-2571 id that stands holds its ears iru harvest, ihts drought tress and diseases and produces top corn yields, spendable performance.
