[QUOTE="Al R, post: 8098855, member: 7565"] Don’t rule out Ag-Bag, depends where you are, with that acreage it will cost you more than if your doing 2-300acre per cut obviously but on 300 acre per cut the Ag-Bag system was the cheapest I’ve seen, they take up a lot of space though. If you factor in a loading shovel, driver, diesel and allow 5% for wastage on a clamp then Ag-Bag can work out cheaper if you have no clamps - definitely worth a phonecall to them to find out the costs and if they could do it etc.. On that acreage I’d be tempted on updating your baler wrapper combo to a Fusion 2 possibly. Obviously the wholecrop is the only issue with balers, but then you can’t use the trailled chopper for wholecrop either, but probably worth getting a contractor in for the wholecrop 🤷🏻♂️ [/QUOTE]
