[QUOTE="Silver, post: 1658258, member: 12520"] I would estimate that at a minimum the outside 6" of a dry hay bale become waste in the first year. On a 70" bale that's 16% loss right there. Another 6 or 7 percent possibly being lost during the baling of a dry bale suddenly makes total losses of well over 20%. For carry over I would not be surprised that dry hay loss could surpass 35% or more. I'm feeding baleage now that I made in 2019 and there is zero loss. For me the $4 investment in plastic is very cheap. [/QUOTE]
