Anyone made their own hay preservative applicator for their small square baler? Might put into hay for next year about 3 acres that is a long strip pretty much shaded on the sun side by a line of trees. Drying will likely be an issue - thinking about a preservative.
I've got a spanking new Femco 15 gallon spot sprayer I bought several years ago - still in the box. I'm thinking about mounting it to the baler, adding a tee into the hose and rigging two spray tips over the pick-up - spraying the hay as it comes into the baler. Maybe there's a better way?
The pump is 12V electric, thinking I might need a pressure regulator/gauge to meter the flow based on application rate.
What do you think? Do-able or should I be buying something off-shelf?
