How many bales can a body bale with two spools of twine.Granted I think twine comes in different length balls and I know one can bale around 750 bales with 2 boxes of wire.I'm just trying to figure difference in cost of each.Also what wire balers that are adjusted correctly leave little short pieces of wire in bales????? Thanks,Tx Jim

Jim;
I seem to get right around 500 bales per box using 10 000 sisal. Roy

I get about 550 out of 10,000 sisal, 505 or so out of 9000 plastic. Depends a lot on bale length. I went to 36" bales 2 years ago from the local standard 38" as I increased bale density.

The math of a 16X18 bale that is 3 ft long says you would need 8 3/2 ft of twine per side. Each bundle of twine (two balls to the bundle) has 9000ft in it. Work it out and you get that it will do around 500 - 520 bales per bundle. Alot of factors can change this but that is a rough estimate...

Which strength of twine? I get round about 500 bales out of a set of 9000 sisal, depends on lots of variables of course.

You could divide the number of feet in a ball of string by the feet in a box of wire and multiply by 750(number of bales). Gives the approximate number of bales with string.
