Round Bale Drying V1.0

Round Bale Drying V1.0

Increase your farm’s efficiency with round bale drying!
Transform round grass bales into valuable hay bales on pallets using warm air.
The wood chip heating system generates warm air, which, together with the grass bales, powers the production process.
Finished hay bales can be sold directly or further processed into loose hay with the electric bale shredder,
which is perfect for animal feed.
A smart solution to maximize profit and productivity and make better use of limited harvest windows!
(Square bales are also accepted, as I haven’t found a way to block them.)
