I often herd barley straw is better quality if it is wilted for a few days after combine has finished,

Straw is a lot fitter this year . No greening at all . Balers near Banbury following combines @10% on dry daysALL straw needs to be left a day minimum before it’s baled, the moisture in the straw always rises as it goes though the combine.
Anything baled direct behind just goes boardy and isn’t worth selling or buying.
Contractor was running 8 Balers not far from lincoln on tuesday or so I am told,that would mostly be for burning thou.How far from Lincoln are you? PM if you wantBut no one appears to want to buy em, my own baler and chaser is for sale but not selling. I’ve ended up using both but very limitedly, so far I’ve chased 240 mini Hesstons for someone and baled 66 quads for someone else !. There’s straw on the deck everywhere round here and hardly a baler in sight !.
And they say there’s money in straw ! Pfffffff.

We managing to keep the lorries loaded so someone is having itTell me about these dry days you speak of?
Yea, was wondering that myself. I had straw booked into bale yesterday, around 40 acres of rape and 20 of wheat which would actually have baled behind the combine. It rained all day. Windy and dry today now so may get a call. Can see a lot of rape seed hitting the ground now mind.Tell me about these dry days you speak of?
Not such an exciting ride.Why don't they load wagons with bales across the bed? Would you not get more on?

When we made small bales for hoss trade we applied proprionic acid and acetic acid in damper conditions to help reduce moulds. It was expensive and needed higher rates than on the tin to make a difference. If some customers knew it had been added they would not buy the haySorry if this bit off tack for this thread in south east there contractors burden bros who bale in a big way they put acid on bales why would any farmer want that ?
