Like brad says, it's a machine that stuffs silage or haylage, or anything else the farmer wants, into a plastic tube. Bags come in different diameters and lengths, a different machine for each diameter.
Here's some pictures from the first time we rented it 2 years ago-
It really helps keep the spoilage down, and it's much cheaper than putting up another silo and maintaining it.
The Bags are made out of a very stretchable plastic, and the ones that we get with the bagger when we rnet it have bars that you measure to see how good of a pack you're getting. And if they stretch too far or not enough you can adjust the preasure on the brakes, if so equipped with the net that holds the back of the bag with cables that run up to the machine on 2 big cable reels. The 10' bag, when filled, probably stretched to be almost 13' in diameter, if not more. We got a 150'er this year, and 2 years ago we got a 200' bag but still only filled about 150'- cost us around $200 or more for the 50 ft. we didn't use...
We put corn silage and haylage in it this season, we'll see how good the haylage digs out of it...
