Subject: RE: Bale processor? Tub grinder?


all over Iowa

For your situation I'd lean towards a bale processor.  A tub grinder is better if it's going through a TMR, but if your just feeding the hay the processor will windrow it on the ground and make it much harder for them to sort.
Kansas State did some good research a few years back, and showed a lot less waste for processed hay fed on the ground compared to hay fed in bale rings.
The processor can always be used in the future.  Besides using for feed, the bale processor works good for bedding too - most users would tell you that bedding goes twice as far when run through a processor.
