Ken, Not sure if you are referring to "net wrap" or stretch film. I haven't seen an attachment to put stretch film on bales on a baler, they probably have one. Film is generally used to make baleage. I rent a wrapper and wrap both baleage and some dry hay. Only problem is having to deal with all that wet, nasty, muddy plastic. On a cold, rainy day I hate to get out of the warm dry cab and cut it off. Then it is a pain to dispose of. Up side is it really protects the hay. As far as net wrap, lot of guys here use it. Does appear to really reduce spoilage and makes hauling outside stored bales a breeze. It worked out cheaper for me to tie with sisal and store inside. Can build a shed pretty cheap. Cedar poles, some 2/6's, and some cheap tin from an over run. Plus, like with the plastic film, I don't have to get off the tractor in the mud and rain to cut that net wrap off. 28'x72' shed (on a barn) cost me under $3000 in materials and labor. Holds 150 rolls (stacked), that's $20.00 a roll, at $2.00 a roll for net wrap its even money in 10 yrs.
