[QUOTE="Mark Reynolds, post: 1808302, member: 43196"] Maybe you need a baler, but before you do that, consider carefully ALL the expense/economics that go into baling forage. Post WWII tractors, balers, fuel, time and fertilizer were cheap. The increase in cost of these things has far outstripped the rate of profit increase per cow. Prior to WW II it was much more economical to bring the cows to the forage standing in the field rather than harvest it and take it to the livestock. It might be worth considering that as an option, before you buy a new baler. [/QUOTE]
