I've been following for a while and really have enjoyed your videos, because I grew up on my Grandfather's farm back in the 1950's and the concepts you deal with haven't changed much. BUT you just blew my mind with your description of a 2000 lb. bale. When I was helping get hay in, I was 10-12 years old and threw bales of hay onto a trailer by hand to be taken to the barn and stored in the loft. Needless to say, much has changed.

The bale wrapper means you don't have be concerned about green damp hay catching fire. In wet climate regions wrappers have their place in the machinery portfolio. Strategic use so you use the wrapper when it is required. If you have space in a shed for good condition used wrapper something like a McHale 998 would do the job, hopefully with a good level of depreciation compared to a new machine.

Take it at the speed you feel comfortable with , until you have what you feel is enough experience . Question if you upped the density on the bales closer to the Krone ideal say 72 . what happens if you then shorten the bale length by a few inches would that bring their weight down ?
