I agree with a lot of these guys. I use a 570 Belarus pulling a JD 435 baler. Good working combination. Just have to know how to drive the weird tractor. One thing that on one mentioned is the fact that on the round baler, you are moving much faster over the field than you do square baling, altho your rpms are the same. Remeber you are changing modes of baling and a new line of equipment is required. If you are already baling square bales, look into buying an accumulator and bale hook for the loader tractor. It might be cheaper to stick to the square bales.
I use a IH 47 square baler for my squares and sell more to the horse people than I do round. They just don't want round bales. Who you sell your hay to is another factor to figure into the equation.
Good luck.....
