[QUOTE="ArrowHBrand, post: 438531, member: 6496"] We have a New Holland small square baler and have only used sisal twine. I like that it's biodegradelable and one worry as much if a piece is in with the cows. A fella I know has the same baler and uses plastic twine and is always having trouble with the knotters and knives. I can't say that his choice of twine is to blame exclusively, but we've never had a problem with our baler. We keep our s.s. in the barn but the big rounds are outside and we've never had any sort of rot problems. I agree that it's a lot easier to untwine a sisal round bale than a plastic or net wrapped bale. Plus a sisal round bale can be dropped wrapped into a bale buster or feed grinder without any real ill effects to the livestock. [/QUOTE]
