Edible bale wrap coming

[Cab-over Pete]

I remember some kind of edible silage clamp covering years ago.

A lorry came and blokes sprayed it on. The stuff looked like the insulation you see inside the roof of potato stores, workshops etc. It seemed ok but was a bit brittle and as the clamp settled it either left a void or it cracked and let air in. It was like the stuff cheesy wotsit and quaver crisps are made from.

I also remember a firm coming to a clamp we were just finishing and spraying potato slurry all over the top to seal it. It still needed a sheet on the ramp though.

Oh dear gawd....something else for fussy horse owners to claim their nags don't like the taste of.

Hope its not like some bio-degradeable packaging that I saw. A vegetable packer I know had to keep his stock of degradeable plastic bags in the cold-store to stop them biodegrading before he used them. Edible bale wrap - great. Keeping 3,000 bales in a cold store - sort of defeats the object!!
