[QUOTE="jdg, post: 1591961, member: 13350"] I've seen fairly good shape anderson in-line wrappers sell for $10-$16k around here ($30k new abouts), but you still have to be wrapping for a few hundred cows for it to be worth the investment...unless you were doing custom work. I assume you're talking about a thin stemmed grass, and not a summer annual, so a tedder would certainly help, but won't make the rain stop. Never used an inverter, but sounds cheaper than a wrapper. We just finished wrapping about 300 4x5 bales of hybrid bermuda and about 6o 4x6 bales of it this week. I"ve been cutting the baleage hay in the afternoon and baling the next morning when the dew dries. Leaves me more time to get everything wrapped in the afternoon. Preserves the quality of the forage, but there are downside to baleage. (lifespan, potential bacteria/fungus, and more difficult to move from farm to farm once ensiled) [/QUOTE]
