Rounding Wheat Straw 2+2

[5030]

Here is a picture of my 5030 Kubota and my friends Massey. Yesterday we ran a field of wheat straw. 68 acres to be exact. We are both running the same bailers, NH 630 series.

Round baling wheat straw is a new one on me!! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif We only square bale it here in upstate New York. We only use it for bedding, so round bales would be pretty awkward. What is this straw gonna be used for?? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

We square baled about 2000 last year and had to destroy about 500 to make room for this years hay.

The wheat straw is for my neighbors feed lot operation. They use the rounds for bedding and they also feed the straw once the steers are at market weight and are waiting for transport to the slaughter house. Like horses, the steers will eat the barn if they have nothing in front of them!!

pretty common to round bale straw here too. Used for bedding and seed beds.
