Subject: RE: Bale Wrapper


Driftless SW Wisconsin

I bought an Anderson IFX720 with extractor and remote in 2018 on a zero or low interest dealer payment plan. On the surface doesn't make sense for the 200-300 bales I wrap most years but has turned out to be a good choice.

Inline uses much less plastic than individual wrap and plastic is a big expense and disposal/recycling problem. But the machine will run unattended in a one man operation and save a lot of spoiled hay. Kept in good shape it is probably worth what I paid for it if sold. 

The IFX720 takes up to 6 ft bales which is good for wrapping dry hay (most others max dia is 5ft) and the extractor makes ending a tube MUCH easier than the older models. Look at it as an investment. This  year I could have kept it busy and made some money doing custom wrapping if I'd had the time or help to do so.

If a wrapper can save you from buying hay it can be a good investment.
