    Welgar not an option

    So if baling a lot of conventional bales hay and haylage and the supply of decent Welgar balers is getting thin what do you buy .? Anyone had experiences with the newer NH 5000 series. I want maximum weight in bales I can and must be side pull so rules out the inline MF machines.

    Spreading dung in the spring

    I have never needed to do it before but I'm tight for storage. If I go out with composted dung at something like 5/10T/AC how long will it take to incorporate into grass paddocks? The dung is fully composted.
