With just one strap on the load I betcha he's going from the field to the barn. The combo works fine for this type of work a few times a summer.
Looks like maybe 25 bales 3' X 4" X 8' which may weigh in the 1300 lbs range for around 32500 lbs of grass.
The F450 may weigh in the 10k range.
A GN trailer that size can weigh in the 10k range.
The triaxle dual tandem trailer may have 12k axles at 36000 GVWR. The hard part is guessing what percentage this trailer has for hitch loads all depending on axle placement on the trailer.
A 36000 GVWR trailer at 25 % = 9000 lbs well within 19.5" tires/wheels and axle assy....but short on F450 9100 RAWR spring pack ratings.
