The Chinese net wrap is the “good stuff”. Projected tariff will increase my cost $.30 per bale, would cost me $2400 more next year to buy the net wrap I bought this year. There is not a “better” made in the USA wrap that costs the same per bale. Sometimes more expensive per roll net is cheaper per bale. I am a custom operator so we live and die by cost per bale. I will find a solution to this problem but I don’t give brownie points to people who make problems for me. Yes, I voted for Trump. Not sorry I did, but hope we have a better choice next time.
Having just purchased a baler with net wrap, can I ask what brand the "good stuff" made in Chiina is?
Local John deere has their net wrap special on until the end of the year and he said it's the same price as last year, hasn't increased. Find it hard to believe that Deere hasn't increased theirs if everyone else's is going up. |
