Subject: RE: Tips On Baling Straw



I bale behind a JD cylinder and a Case/IH rotary with few problems. For round baling, faster is better, as was mentioned by others. Square baling requires that the baler pickup reel be all the way up so that the teeth don't pick up too much dirt when crossing ditches, or cause the reel to bind and break chains. The straw choppers must be disconnected and slid out of the way. I also made a windrow builder out of rebar and 1-1/2" flat iron that bolts to the back of the combines underneath the area where the straw falls off the walkers. This helps form a narrower windrow so that I get more of the straw. Works for rice and wheat.
