I have had and used old equipment, and I have had and used new. Only real difference is, while they both wear out/break down, you are much more disappointed when the new equipment fails. I like to keep a newer baler, but raked and cutting equipment that I have are all old or second hand. Balers cost big $$ now days, and chains belts and bearings only go around so many times before they start to fail. So I like to trade my baler in while it is still considered a late model, and by a new one. Makes a easy resale unit for the dealer, and I don’t have any down time, or buy any parts. And round balers have been improved dramatically over the past ten years. String only balers are not as easy to sell, everyone wants net wrap now. Net wrap goes on much quicker, and sheds some water. Nearly all new round balers sold in my neighbourhood are silage balers, most with knives inside the baler to cut the bale into segments as it is being baled. Not necessary for making dry hay, but with wet wrapped bales, makes the bales much easier to feed.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
