Posted this on another forum, thought I'd post a variant of it here:
For those of you that are making a spinkin' tight square bale of hay 14 x 18 inch cross section, and for those of you that have actually weighed and measured, what is your typical weight vs length? Grass hay - not legumes.
I know there are variables with humidity, but generally speaking, what is your typical bale length vs weight when your baler is really dialed-in and you've got a no-apology needed, nice tight bale of hay in front of your most picky customer? What make and model baler are you using?
Tweaking my bale length this year and am curious as to what weight I can expect vs it's length.
Again, talking about grass hay, not legumes.
Thanks,
Bill
