NewHolland2 Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 Just a few pictures from the past week........ Loaded up the bales from the field at the bottom of the road with the Merlo for a change........ Wrapped 210 bales of wheat straw to be ammonia treated for feeding to the beasts over the winter........ First load home........ Left the wrapped bales for today and went back to the straw........

Ouch, my backside is pretty painful after that branding........ Great pictures Martin. Looks a very nice job to do loading bales. Texas Thanks Bas........Yes, I do enjoy loading the bales........ never seen straw bales wrapped before, just stacked up and left in the barn? any reason for wrapping them mart That's a first for me aswell seeing straw bales wrapped, great update and photographs Martin. David and Sean, the wheat straw is wrapped and then injected with ammonia by a company called Feedmix, this is then left for a few weeks and is used as a dry feed for the cattle over the winter as part as opposed to the higher moisture content in silage........The usual ration for the main court is a bale of the ammonia straw mixed with two bales of silage........

pistol pete Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 we did our about 5 years ago since then we have more silage but the guy that did it got the fast track and trailer stuck we but them beside a track for him so he was on hard standing. but he thought it would be fun to go on the field. wasn't funny when he had to get a d9 hired to pull him out.

MJB1 Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 seen ammonia applied on a few farms down here mart , with 3 different techniques. i do know the wrapped bales being injected as i've done the wrapping , but not seen it done actually ibjected so some pics of that would be great. also knew of a contractor that had an additive barrell & dribble bar on the baler for a direct application . & last of which i did used to help with was , a contractor with a straw chopper application system , i used to load the bales onto a trailed conveyor that used to feed a straw chopper , where the ammonia was applied & blown to the back of a shed , as when it was chopped it was fed with a diet feeder which made it easier for the cows to eat & less waste as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eurodeere Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 MJB1 When you were chopping straw into the back of the shed was it Ammonia or Caustic Soda you were applying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
