Preservative applicator on baler?

[John e.c.MI]

Do any of you run preservative applicators on your baler? Likes, dislikes? I am looking at a couple right now. Also there is an innoculant applicator on ebay now, any reason that wouln't work for preservative?

I am just looking to lengthen my baling window a couple of ours a day, not bale wet hay as a practice.

Is there no way to edit posts in this forum? Either my typing skills or proof reading skills need a little help.

We run a Harvest Tec automatic system. Works great but costs alot, it check moisture every three seconds and adjust accordingly. Really saves on product applied needlessly, you cant believe how much moisture in the same windrow varies. We used to run a basic sprayer mounted on our baler but applied extra acid sometimes. The system soon paid for it self with the savings. Depends on how much hay you put up.

Any baler I have seen with a liquid applicator is
always rusty where the liquid hits.

I use Crop Saver from Harvest Tec and dont have any rust at all. No paint loss no evidence of any corrosion.
