[QUOTE="HUS, post: 614102, member: 7566"] Problems with getting clogged in mowers and other equipment, bowel issues with cattle, etc. etc. etc. Why would we not want to remove and dispose of twine properly? I've been lucky so far in over 20 yrs to have no problems but I remove mine from all round bales. My neighbors had two farms that they lost cattle on and the vet confirmed that it was due to ingesting twine. I can only repeat what they were told, but it is enough to scare me and besides; the pastures look better with only cattle, forage, and plenty of cow pies on them with no string or other garbage. Not to mention that twine tangled in the cattle standing areas are tripping hazards for humans also. (I've seen this in my neighbor's pastures.) Just good housekeeping measures I guess. And one more opinion. HUS [/QUOTE]
