Im paying £14.50 baled wrapped (6) and stacked in field and I think its cheap personally, was £10 from a neighbor last year, but TBH he has to pay a wage and bills and hes probbably earning less at that than a domestic gardener cutting lawns. Ill be rounding up to £15 as he always does a lush job and is so tidy. My hedges went from 235 to 280 on one block, and tbh I think hes still dirt cheap for what goes into the job.

Wrapped bale silage is cheap compared to pit silage now if you can do it yourself,
the cost of owning/running a feed wagon to feed out and tractor to pull it has risen significantly, this can be avoided in sucklers by cutting your silage and different stages and placing in different stacks which you can feed to different batches of cattle according to condition score
Good silage is cheap compared to mixing feed barley in at £300/t and fuel at 1.10
Contractors rates are rising and so is labour, buy a 2nd hand fusion and get in with the job yourself uve all summer to do it
With fert at £640/t and proven less DM field losses with bale silage, surely thats the way to go and alone offsets any plastic rises?
The cost of concrete and panels has sky rocketed

I forgot to mention weather, you can cut and bale between showers can you get a silage crew gang to turn up between them when everyone else wants them?
10 rolls @£75.50 delivered last week. Cotesi Balpaq. Have been using their 10000 hay twine for years without a problem, hope the wrap is the same.

Probably tearing on the roll. I remember Quinn wrap like that. Thankfully only used one and a half rolls of it.
Unreliable bale wrap can ruin a business,I only ever use a few rolls of a wrap I’ve not used before on my own bales first.There will be absolutely no comeback for ruined silage,they may come and have a look but they will blame everything but the plastic,type of grass,too wet,too dry,miss shaped bales,baler,wrapper,driver etc.
