[QUOTE="JMJ Farms, post: 1543612, member: 24583"] Two things that help with storage. 1) Store them with a flat side up/down if you can, if you’re storing under a roof. Aggravating but prevents sagging and settling. 2) I prefer net wrap. But I don’t think plastic twine will ever break down :bang: I cut the wrap or twine off of every bale I feed but some before me didn’t. I have rent pastures that have masses of tangled up twine. Drug some of it up with a chisel plow trying to clean up a little. Been there at least 7 years in the dirt. Still not rotten. But one thing is for sure. It will probably break down quicker in a situation where you don’t want it to break down. Like on a bale of hay. [/QUOTE]
