Depends on size of big baler,I think you would be disappointed with the density of the rounds in comparison. You generally get around 22 bales out of a roll if 4’ but if your 4’6” you could be down to 18-20. I reckon you would probably be somewhere between 1.5-2 rounds to your squares.
I get 6 ft by 4 ft by 3 ft from a krone big pack baler, dry matter high as it’s for sheep there’s some serious density in them.
When feeding you can tell how much more is in them compared to rounds as the sheep get through the rounds twice as fast,
I think vs the round bales I’ve had done ( contracted) there must be getting on for nearly double in them. The reason I get them is for that saving on wrap, easier to handle etc.
To be fair the smaller big square bales don’t make sense though I’ve never understood the advantage of them over round.
