New John Deere B wrap

[johndeeregreen]

I do quite a bit of custom round baling using a JD 458 round baler, I heard about this new B wrap that's coming out this spring. Does anyone know what the cost is vs net wrap? What has to be done to the baler to be able to use B wrap?

When I read the title, I thought you'd written a hip-hop song with a weird (pop, pop, miss,miss) rythym.


OK, I'll put myself in time-out for a while.

Two dollars for net wrap, seven dollars per bale for the new wrap stuff. I do not think it is worth it.

Wow, quite a jump in price. I don't think I'll be using much of the new B wrap!

It doesn't sell me on b wrap. I was curious, I just bought a 468.

It could be very attractive around here what with the price of hay and taxes on a shed.

I don't think it will be a big hit around here. I do agree though in certain places with high quality hay, it would be very beneficial.

You"re not going to be in time out by yourself.
