Thankfully I'm only buying a few for bedding calving pens this year instead of feeding. Hoping to collect some in the the morning with the jeep and trailer and squares would be easier for me to haul than rounds.

jay gatsby wrote: » Quite a bit tighter IMO. I haven't got the figure to back it up but the packers on those big balers generate serious force so I'd be allowing a bit for that. Weighing is obviously the fairest but another long shot is knowing how big the field is and seeing how many bales came off it. Average yield is probably 10-12 4x4's in most crops this year
