Key Questions to Ask When Ordering silage wrap film

Here are four key guidelines that you must follow to make sure better baling with the silage wrap around your baler. First, there are two basic shapes for the bales to choose from: flat or round. Flat bales are suitable for indoor storage and are ideal for storing foods and equipment not frequently used. Round bales offer a little more versatility in storage and can be used for almost any purpose. Both these types will produce a tighter weave than flat bale, giving them the ability to retain moisture longer. For more details, check here.

Most companies use square bales to prepare silage because they have the tightest weave and best shape for storage. However, if you choose to design your own bale, round bales can still work well. If you wish to try out both, then go for the square bales. It is important that the square bales fit tightly together and shouldn’t be too loose. As long as it’s tight enough, you won’t have any issues with it falling apart after you’ve had a few days of storing things in it.

The second guideline on buying the right kind of bale is to know how many pounds of feed your company will be putting into the bale. Most silage wrapping companies will prepare bales which are up to 100 pounds in weight. In addition, much larger bales will take longer to wrap because they need to stretch out more. If you’re only preparing a few pounds of feed at a time, then you don’t need a huge bale. For more details, check here.

A third guideline on buying silages is getting plastic wraps designed to withstand adverse conditions such as hot sun, freezing rain and humidity. Plastic wraps which are only meant to be used one time are a lot less durable than ones which can be used over. These kind of bales are also more expensive. If you’re using them for more than one season, then you’ll find plastic wraps easier to clean since they’re easier to remove dirt from and also because they’re more durable.

When buying your silage wrap, the fourth guideline is to purchase the ones that use a plastic or metal feed. This means you can expect plastic wraps which can last longer, but they won’t be able to provide as much insulation. On top of this, you will also see a higher price for the feed and a plastic or metal feed. If you’re prepared to spend more money on these materials, you might want to check out bale sheets instead.

We have been wrapping bale since and have used a lot of different plastic we have come to the conclusion that Sun film gold (1.5 ) is still the best route to go Up North Plastics used to make a very good rap. It was a 1.5 mill plastic with very good tack but we can't find that I think they quit. 3 important facts to make good silage bales.
1. Plastic (1.5 mill )
2. Tack, make sure the layer of plastic stick together.
3. Probably the most important "do not skimp on the number of raps"

what we have found out is that you want about 8 inches of exposed plastic per revolution , so if you have roles on your wrapper you will have about 4 inches of space between raps.

Try to keep the hay about 50% moisture, yes, you can go more, but it makes better feed at 50%, then 70% and you can go as low as 25%.

If you have any questions me.
