Custom Baling and Wrapping

Our main focus has been to maximize the quality of the feed we grow for our cattle. This led us to the individually wrapped silage round bale system. We know that offering this as a custom service provides our customers with the best forage product because the analysis of our forage and performance of our cattle is proven.

With our baler wrapper combination machines we are fully equipped to tackle any sized job in sufficient time to ensure the best possible feed value. Our machines produce 4×4 round bales-chopped and wrapped in one pass. Grass silage, alfalfa, green feed, millet and barley silage, sorghum are all crops that we have baled in the previous seasons.

We can also make dry hard core 5×5 to 5×6 bales with our 958 JD baler, medium 3×3 with our Heston square or large 3×4 square bales with our Krone Baler ideal for hay and straw.

Along with custom baling we are increasingly producing more feed and straw to sell and export, working closely with haulage companies we seem to send feed further and further a-field. For more information feel free to get in-touch or check out the feed sales page.
