Subject: Re: Let's talk round balers



Deere makes a great baler and one of the tightest bales I've seen, but I HATE coveredge.

Had a guy come help out one time with some baling and his was a coveredge baler. What a pain in the butt to take off. We still use a couple ring feeders, try taking that net off after you drop it in. Doesn't work too well.

I adjusted, took the net off while the bale was in the air, over the feeder, then dropped it in. Just one more step that I can avoid. I've also heard that coveredge bales are discounted by around $5/ton at a local hay auction for the same reason.

Nice pictures, hope they are from this year. It's been too wet to bale here, rain in the forecast for every day next week too.
