mkirsch: Undisturbed hay will dry faster in windrow. In the 1960s I mowed hay in swath with NH 460 haybine, and this was timothy-alfalfa hay yielding 5 ton/acre dry hay per cutting. I moved to a haylage operation, and windrowing from the haybine. The first problem I encountered was hay becoming too dry for haylage within 24 hours. I had never seen heavy crop hay dry this fast. This hay was heavy enough I had to use 16.9x38 tires on my 560 or 656 to keep drawbar from draging windrow whem mowing. Everyday I found myself turning this once and baling it, within 30 hours of mowing. It was the surprise of my life and changed the way I made hay forever. The windrowers never came off the haybine.
