Subject: RE: Round baler hp?


New Brunswick, Canada
So you are baling weeds from a windrow and all the tires have to follow rows or the same tracks at least, and the material has to get removed from the field but its ok to dump bales once in a while, an option might be an old square baler with a motor mounted, they can run on very little hp although some small square balers don't like green material. With the knifes sharp and plunger shimmed right my JD will happily bale silage if you don't cram it in. You'd have to make the bales pretty short if you want a thrower to toss them into a wagon, or if the rows are straight you can let it push up a chute onto a wagon.

Another option is a trailed forage harvestor, if you have an engine mounted you could tow it directly behind the tractor and blow sileage into a wagon, there are some set up for direct cut too, crop chopper flail harvester? Some folks use old ones to clean up around their fields here.
