Subject: RE: New John Deere Cotton Picker...Who pays for the wrap????


Wallis, TX
The farmer will pay for the wrap in the end, no matter who writes the check for it. Nothing is free, unless ya'll can pass the cost on to the buyer. What needs to be asked is how much price difference there is between tarps (price divided by number of uses) and wrap. Throw in labor savings (or extra costs), cost of moving modules vs rolls along with other variables and you can compare apples to apples.

What I can't get is a firm price on wrap. I've heard $8 per bale and $8 per roll, big difference.

The other question that someone maybe can answer is how do the rolls handle getting wet. I'm worried about the bottom. Does the plastic 'hold' moisture in after a big rain?
