what are tractor balers and round balers?
Tractor balers and round balers are machines widely used in agriculture and livestock farming to compact different materials, such as hay, straw or grass into compact and manageable bales. This type of machine greatly facilitates the storage, transport and handling of these materials. They work by collecting the material, compacting it in a chamber and then wrapping it with rope, netting or plastic film to form a compact bale.
So what is the difference between balers and round balers? The main difference between a baler and a round baler is the way the materials are compressed. Balers create bales, while round balers create cylindrical shaped bales. Round balers are also recommended for bales over 400 kg.
