I will venture to guess you don't want smaller round bales like the 4x4 or 6x4 bales. Square balers used cost 3 times what a round baler will and up keep cost is more than that. Go price a knotter form one of the dealers. They are more cost than the maintenance on a round baler for a year. You should be able to get into a good used round baler for about 2-5,000 pretty easy. A lot of guys don't like the New Idea balers. IH and Hesston had the same baler with different model numbers on them. We have had round balers for 20 years with minimum maintenance requirements, and minimum break downs. I do go around and feel the bearings the first day and check then daily for temperature. Warm is ok hot is not. You should be able to bale 75 acres in about 2-3 days depending on the weather and morning start time. We bale about 20-30 acres per day depending on the amount of hay we have and the weather. We used to do about a hundred acres per year in about a week from mowed to finished hauled. None of it more than half mile away as it was all on the home place. We have a wagon that will haul about 20-25 and my semi trailer we haul about 45 on. It takes longer to put it away then it does to haul it.

Today's Featured Article - Seeing an Old Friend - by Joe Evans. Dad had a concrete contracting business starting in 1960. One of his first pieces of equipment was a Ferguson TO-35 with a Davis loader. Dad replaced the TO-35 with a MF 202 Workbull, essentially an industrialized Ferguson 35 I am told. Dad bought the 202 new in 1962, and I recall quite clearly going to the dealer with him to sign for it.
