Everything JDSeller said is true. I would however take exception to his comment that the single wrapped bales take up more room to store. I see his point, however, you CAN stack the single wrapped bales in a barn if you so choose. You can't do that with inline wrapped bales. YOu ask, "well, why would I ever want to store single wrapped bales in a barn"? Answer: Have you ever tried busting the snow and ice off of a plastic wrapped bale? Especially ice! It sure is nice to not get all wet from handling the plastic.
I have owned a single bale wrapper for 2 years now. It DOES use considerably more plastic. It also is very slow compared to an inline wrapper. With only doing 50 plus bales a year, I'd certainly use a single wrapper. The University of Kentucky did a study where they compared the inline wrapper to the single unit. Their conclusion was that 400 bales was the amount necessary to justify the inline wrapper. I like the fact I can feed one bale today and maybe wait 2-3 days (or longer) before I feed another bale. When you open the inline row........you're committed to continuous feeding. The single wrapped bales keep so much better over a longer period of time as compared to the inline. The "extra" plastic does have a benefit.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
