In Reply to: NET WRAP posted by John im Md on January 11, 2010 at 01:54:19:
I don't have a baler that uses net but I have bought alot of wrapped hay and hired a few custom balers that used wrap. Every one I have talked to says that net runs about $1 more per bale than string. Most folks who sell hay or do custom work would rather use net cause it is so much faster and there is so many fewer turns of a full bale on the tractor and baler. That is fine for me, the only disadvantage of net I can see is it is a pain to get off if it is covered with snow or ice. Hay will keep much better when net wraped and left out side than twine. If I was going to keep it inside I would use sisal twine and feed it with the string on, but builings cost alot more than net or dealing with getting rid of it.
From what I have delt with the best net wrap jobs only have 1.5 to 2 wraps. Less than that will come apart, more is a pain to get off and wadded into a feed sack, and doesn't really have any better hay under it.
