[QUOTE="bigbluegrass, post: 1649051, member: 15537"] Good points. I used a light/cheap hayring. I can move it by myself to the next bale. As you said, the cows waste far more with the bale on the ground without a hayring. Had them help themselves to the next bales a few times and they eat/waste about twice as much. Those areas actually grow great grass, but I just don't have the budget for that much hay. I used bales with natural twine at first and got off as much as I could. Recently the bales have plastic twine, which I am careful to get all or most of. You can cut it off after the bale is set. I don't think you could get net wrap off after the bale is in place.
