This is the first time i have seen a square bale being wrapped

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

3×3s... Look a little short, must be 6'?? We run 4×4s, 6'(+/-) because they'll fit in a ring.. only have one ring anymore, the rest are big bale feeders... Thanks for the video Mike!!

[@JoeyCampbell988]

The ol hesston was eating the hay. Pretty big windrows

[@HayMap]

Great video!

[@wagil90]

how many layers of wrap do they need?

[@canvids1]

nice video Mike nice way of keeping the cattle feed but can only imagine what it costs for all that plastic wrap.

[@TheFarmingLife]

It usually runs about $72 a roll. 24 Bales per roll roughly. But it's a nice way to put up feed have an awesome day

[@jermsmason2082]

Yeah, seems like a huge waste of plastic too.

[@deannelson9565]

@@jermsmason2082 but it gives you a vastly superior quality of feed over traditional bales.

[@crazycoyote1738]

Can you leave this bales outdoors exposed to the elements without damage, or you still need a storage barn?

[@rafbressana9988]

Nice vid 👍

[@curtisowens4588]

I grew up on a dairy farm and I have never seen them wrapped like that it is so 😎 do they wrap it for freshness?

[@farmboy_907]

You wrap it if it is higher moisture content and it does preserve it as well

[@thr8061]

This year, all the folks who normally don't wrap their round & large square bales probably are since NOTHING is drying with all this stupid rain!

[@philipkimber6302]

why do you guys run those double wheels in that configuration? surely not that wet? just so different to what we do in UK

[@deannelson9565]

Looks like he could use a bigger drop mat on that thing your definitely going to get some plastic damage as hard as those things are impacting into the stubble. Might explain why he's doing 827000 wraps on it.

[@jeffreyhall5679]

Is that burning last years plastic ?

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

Has any company made a machine that both baled and stacked the hay?

[@dougschmitii6165]

My experiences with oat hay is that it draws mice and rats. Wouldn't they chew through that wrap and why are they wrapping the bales? It looks like dry hay. Maybe they're just storing them outside?

[@murraysmith6315]

My exact question too.

[@hedge685]

The bale will ferment when wrapped like this.

[@lukeprince7690]

Hey man you probably won't see this or even read this comment since it's video so old but maybe you can help me out I'm looking for one of those balers to do hay with down here in Alabama to offer a different product large square bales are not existed down here we got round bales but everybody's trying to get more hate you can stop more square bales than you can round bales Special wanna come to shipping Hey It's just easier so what model should I be looking for for an old large square Square Hey Baylor and when I say ohld I'm talking like 1st or 2nd gin Sounds like a pick up relatively cheap Just to get started

[@curtweatherbee2523]

Mike explain to me why they wrapped it so many times and just not twice reason being🤔🐝

[@trentw3614]

They burning tires back at the farm? 😂😬

[@dougschmitii6165]

Not many tires to burn in Amish country, ha ha!

[@frank.s74]

They wouldn't dare to do that in Germany. (Maybe if its very foggy.) If you get punished, you could properly dispose many, many tires for the same money. They make lots of things out of old rubber tires.

[@fabiogutierrez5197]

[@jimsmith9931]

If you watch the first part of video and see that black smoke that’s likely the lazy farmer burning that plastic wrap that was on those bales. I see it all the time here in Ashippun Wisconsin. Dispose that plastic wrap properly.

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Sadly, in most areas, there are no recyclers that will accept twine or plastic wrap, so...... (Do I condone burning it? NO! But it is probably better than going to the landfill...)

[@JoshuaSmith-xw6jp]

What makes you say that he is lazy? Or are you just an ass? I'd say the latter.

[@codyludwig2811]
