He Wraps 3,000 Bales Of Wheat Hay With Plastic
✖ |
I enjoyed the story in your last issue about English farmer Malcolm Metcalfe, who wraps straw bales in plastic to keep the straw in better condition. Last summer, here in Texas, I used my McHale round baler to wrap 3,000 bales of wheat hay with plastic. I swathed the wheat into windrows immediately ahead of the baler and wrapped the bales 12 times to seal in the moisture.
I feed some of the wrapped straw bales to my cows and sell the rest to local feed yards and dairymen. The straw contains 45 to 50 percent moisture, which makes it a good quality feed.
I also wrapped some sorghum sudangrass bales in plastic. (Bob Duensing, 14280 Austin Road, Electra, Texas 76360 ph 940 631-4261)
