What happens here
The presenter provides a detailed explanation of the New Holland haybine's functionality. He describes how the tines grab the grass and feed it into cutting blades, which operate like hair clippers. Crucially, he explains that after cutting, the grass passes through rollers that crimp the stems, breaking them to allow moisture to escape, thereby accelerating the hay drying process. The specific type of grass being mowed is identified as Kentucky 32 Fescue (K-32 fescue), known for its stiff stem.
Goal: Learn how the haybine cuts and conditions hay, and identify the specific grass.
